months operation was burned and
while the management of that COM
pany had in view the opening up of
the Yuba dyke, at a later date, owing
to the burning of their milling plant,
they did not get to it and practically
retired from the field of operation,
being succeeded by the Meadow Val
ley Leasing Co., which has conduct
ed the dyke development during the
past few months, extending the cross
cut running south from east of No. 5
shaft to and across the dyke, and as
the old Yuba workings was the OBJ
jective point, after encountering the
hanging wall of the Yuba dyke, and
finding no ore to speak of at that
point, they started east along the
vein to connect with the main Yuba
Workings and finally their efforts in
this respect have been realized.
1t is understood that a very good
ore showing has been encountered
and further development is contem-
plated by driving raise to the Yuba
100 level from the 1900 stope on
the ore shoot already encountered
and also a drift will be driven west
from the dyke crosscut into virgin
territory, where the indications all
point to being near ore. There is
supposed to be a large tonnage of
millable ore in the old property, and
from results already obtained, we are
informed that the reports in this res
pect will probably be fully verified

ELDORADO CANYON
TEENS WITH ACTIVITY

c. e. l.. Gresh, mining operator of
Eldorado canyon, was in town We'd
nesday. He has been for the past
month in Salt Lake City, in the in
terests of Canyon properties,
Eldorado conyon has within the
past year sustained a steady, healthy
growth. The Eldorado Nevada mine,
of which G. A. Duncan is general
manager, is working full force,- is
starting deep mining operations and
is milling and shipping bullion and
concentrates.
The old Techatticup mine, which
in the old days produced millions of
dollars, is now being worked in
scientific manner and has daily pro-
duction of over 60 tons of ore There
is as much bullion being shipped
from Eldorado today as there is from
Oatman
There are many good properties in
by the owners and being opened up.
Eldorado is confident that it's dis
trict Is going to draw the attention
of the mining world this fall and are
preparing. Among one of the most
notable properties is the Eldorado
Empire, of which Mr.. Gresh is the
president and the moving spirit. He
is busy sinking to catch two veins
that come together on his property
One of them is the vein of the fam
Gus Wall Street mine, which has pro-
duced millions in the past and which
joins on to the Eldorado Empire on
the west. The other is a strong
north-south vein that Mr.. Gresh has
opened UP on his property He will

SALT LAKE ROUTE
THE "ROAD OF QUIET

Howard Elliott, inspector Of trans
portation of the Salt Lake Route,
was caller in town last Wednesday
and distributed an interesting leaflet
directed to officers, employees and
the public. Here are some of the
things it contains:
''We want the Salt Lake Route
known as the Road of Quiet. :"
Nothing adds so much to a journey
as a good nights rest; nothing de-
tracts more from the pleasure of
travelling than nights repose in
terrupted by noise. To be awaken
ed by loud talking, the banging of a
truck handle on the station plat
form, the crashing of ice into water
coolers, the blasting of a whistle or
the calling of signals on an adjoin-
ing track, is indeed disquieting.
"The Salt Lake Route has a good
many talking points
1--WE are the diagonal line tc
Southern California.
"Our roadbed is smooth and oul
cars are well built and comfortable
"Our employees are capable and
courteously attentive.
"Our dining cars and lunch coun
ter service is excellent and for th'
convenience of passengers our diners

"Our trains reach Los Angeles
Salt Lake City, Omaha and Chicag,
at hours convenient for making con

starts and stops.
I'VE have less desert than an
road entering California and two G

Pacific Limited, and the eastboun

desert almost entirely by night.
No passengers on the Salt LAX

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
Largest Enrolment In History of In
stitution Down at Panaea
Especial to the Record)

Especial to the Record)
PANACA, Sept 2S.-There has
ben remarkable increase in the
number of students attending the
Lincoln County High School during
the past year. In l914-5 only sew
enteen students remained during the
school term. Last year there was
an increase of over 100 per cent-in
fact 1 registered This years regis
tration will no doubt be 25 per cent
larger than that of last year. This
increase is due in part at least to
the many practical courses now be-
ing offered, such as science, agricul-
ture, animal husbandry, woodwork,
sewing, economics, mecha |
drawing, and orchestra.
Ie is also being realized that the
high school has an efficient faculty
and that the work done compares
favorably with that done in other
schools of the country
The classes in sewing are plan
ming to make their own uniforms for
the coming year. This idea was in
troduced into the school in order to
do away with the individual rivalry
in dress which is often felt in high
schools. The girls have selected
their own styles by classes and it is
to the just credit of each class that
the styles selected are conventional
and in keeping with true high school
spirit. We believe that the parents
will highly appreciate this move
ment.
A course in mechanical drawing
is being organized this week. The
instruction given will include the
care and use of drawing instruments,
free hand and block lettering, geo.
metrical problems, projection, mater
ial sections, simple machine design,
house and barn plans, tracing and
| blue-printing. The course is proving
very popular and quite a number
have already entered for the course
The two orchestras are now organ
lied and are rehearsing regularly
orchestra (a) meeting twice and or
chestra (b) three times each week
Mr. Karl Bank is the instructor.
Last week the high school ant
district school boards acted favor
ably on the suggestion of Principa

WASHINGTON, Sept, 5.-Wtth al
He'd diplomats in Washington pro-
testing against retaliatory legislation
already enacted by congress to Offset
the British blacklist, the senate to-
day struck two more blows. Amend
ments adopted to the revenue bill are
likely, some officials believe, to result
in official objections taking the place
of the private, though positive pro-
tests against retaliation which GER
tain diplomats here have voiced.
The first act today was passage of
Senator Thomas amendment to the
revenue bill empowering the presi-
dent to retaliate against any bel
ligerent commerce ship that discrini-
mates against American shippers and
exporters.
The second was adoption of Sena-
tor Phelan's amendment to the same
measure refusing rights OF the United
States mails or the facilities Of any
interstate express company or Of any
wireless. telegraph, or cable com pany
to the cttixens Of belligerent countries
which discriminate against Ameri-
cans.
Both amendments explicitly EN-
power the president to take these
steps whenever. during existence of
war in which the United States is
not engaged. the president shall be
satisfied there is reasonable ground
to believe" belligerent governments
have denied all lawful rights to all
American citizens. Violations Of both
proposed laws are punishable by fines
of $1,000 or two years Imprisonment
or both Both admittedly are retalia-
tory measures against Great Britain's
blacklist and seizure and detention OF
mails.
The Thomas amendment was drawn
with the approval Of the state depart
ment and the president is empowered
by its terms to use "any part of the
land and naval forces he deems neces-
sary" to uphold it.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.-Govern-
ment ownership Of railroads and other
public utilities is coming, in the
opinion Of A. B. Garretson, leader Of
the four railway brotherhoods fight
for an eight hour day. Avoidance of
q national rail strike, through strong
governmental interference, he be.
lieves, is only one of a series OF
steps toward such an end.
"Ten years hence" he predicted,
you will see a mighty stride toward
government ownership and operation
of all railroads as well as other public
and Cnasi public utilities. I believe
in such a program after mature re-
Election. l take this view-that there
are deadly dangers in government
ownership; that with the government
engaged in regulation-as it must-I
feel that we must choose the least
dangerous. That Is government oper-
alton and ownership. The sentiment
in that direction has grown steadily,
as a bricklayer would say; settlement
of the strike Ia just another course in
the structure"
Garretson explained that some roads
may face balance on the wrong
side of their books as a result of gov
ernment regulation.
"Then," he continued, ''such lines
must look to the government for re-
endorsement. But the lines making a
profit should not be allowed to escape
while their weaker associates are
put under government control and
assistance. Hence, as l see it, gov
ernment operation and control of all
railroads must result"
Commenting on the Garretson IN
terview, one of the foremost experts
of the country said today:
"His statement that this is one
course in the structure is mild. 1t
appears to me that this law has about
built the whole structure for govern
ment ownership. 1t certainly has
brought such a situation ten years
nearer to realization
