A CARD FROM
JUDGE DAVIS

Dear Editor, il you will give me
space in your valuable paper, |
desire to make an announcement
to my friends through its columns.
Realizing that the time is drawing
nigh when party candidates must
get in the field if they intend to,
and that some are in doubt as to
what my coarse will be, and fear
ing that 80 long as this matter re-
mains in doubt others may hesitate
to enter the race, | take this method
of announcing, after mature delib-
GRAFTON, that l will not stand for
reelection to the Office of County
Judge.
Having been in Office, with the
exception of two brief intervals,
since 1877-when / was elected
Justice Of the Peace in the first
district of Benton County and
reelected at the first election after
L moved into the fifth district. In
1891 [ had the distinction of being
made Chairman of the County
Court, being elected on the first
ballot, and served in this capacity
until the office of County Judge
was created.
Four years later L was elected
County Judge as an independent
candidate against the late A. c..
McRae, and served a full term of
eight years. When the vacancy
occurred by the resignation of W..
Il. Morris in 1904, [ was elected
Judge by the County Court, and
served three years of his term.
4 was the Democratic standard
bearer in the election following
and was elected without opposition.
The great God in whom 1 have
always trusted has SO wonderfully
blessed me in health and otherwise
that have been able to hold every

plished, and how we'll | have per-
formed my official duty, | leave it
to the decision of the people.

the depth of my heart for the en-
couragement given me and also to
the people who have SO generously
supported me when | sought 1T.
Having been in Office almost con-
tinuously forty years, aspirants for
this Office might Justly say at the
end of this term that / ought to
give way to some one else. BE
that as it may, j have deep desire
to retire to private life, for have

The departure of the 13-ton CAST

Manhattan drew out large crowds
this morning along Main street as
the immense wagon of the Verdi
Lumber company doomed up be-
hind II horses. The outfit will be
supplemented by another string of
10 animals at Spanish Springs, as
it will require the combined strength
of % animals to pull the load over
the summit. The Wedge mechanical
rooster. weighing 25,670 pounds,
came from South Bethlehem, Pa,
arriving some time ago, but delivery
was delayed awaiting for improve

TO START SECOND
UNIT OF MASON SHELTER

Unofficial advices from the Mason
Valley Mines company state the sec
ond unit of the company's smelter at
Thompson will be put in operation
within the next few weeks, increas-
ing the capacity from $50 to 1900
tons of ore per day. At the present
time the single unit which was
started February 13, with a capacity
of $50 tons per day as a preliminary
to increasing the plant to full ca
pacity, is in operation.
1t is rumored that plans for the
absorption of new properties by the
Mason Valley company have been
worked out and that conversion
privileges on the company's first
mortgage six per cent bonds have
been extended, but efforts to secure
official confirmation on this have
been futile.-Winnemucca Star.

War Hits University

The first direct effect of the Uni
ted States participation in the war
was felt by the students of the
state university when a telegram
was received from Graduate Man
ager Stroud of the university of
California announcing that the track
meet, scheduled for last Saturday
had been cancelled. All spring
athletics at the University Of Neva-
da have been called off and by a
vote of AZ to 40 the men students
at the university have refused to
substitute eight hours of military
drill daily for the general classes
for the remainder of the semester
and by a similar vote refused to
suspend classes for four hours each
day and put in the time at drill
ing. THE vote did not express the
sentiment of the student body to-
ward the war" said one student,
many of the students felt that it
would be better to wait until some
thing definite could be done in
stead of allowing all studies to go
at this time"

quietly proceeds on the even tenor
of it's way, mining and producing
strictly as a business proposition.
It's heavy and regular shipments OF

for alleged infringement of patent,
began in the federal court here yes

A feature of the trial will be
the operation in the court of a min

that the process itself together with
it's evolution may be ~visualized for

DUCK CREEK DISTRICT
SHOWS MUCH ACTIVITY
HATTIE MINING COMPANY DE-
VELOPING LARGE ORE
BODY

Billy Lowe, of McGill, who Tar
some years past has been in charge
of development work of the Hattie
Mining company, operating ABOUT
II miles from McGill in the Duck
Creek district, has recently MADE
a strike of much importance, which
promises to develop into a large
body of sand carbonate and galena
ore. The discovery was made in
the upper tunnel, where the ore
was only a few inches in width,
but with development it gradually
opened up to Is inches. The
is dipping at an angle of about 30
degrees, and in the floor of the tun-
mel gives indication of being the
top of a large body of ore which
will go to the deep. Ore running
from 20 to 80 per cent is now
being sacked as development work
progresses, and shipments will be
commenced to the shelters of Salt
Lake as soon as the roads from the
mine are open to G%allagher's Gap.
Mr.. Lowe is mutually much pleased
with conditions at the mine, n is
of the opinion that he will soon
have the property on a permanent
producing basis.-Ely Record.

TONOPAH DEVELOPMENTS
SET FORTH IN REPORTS

tinues to hold its width at 8 to 4
feet and to supply a good grade of
milling ore for the company's plant
at Millers.
At the workings served by the
MiyDah shaft on tire EC0-Fcot level,
the .aise in the eastern end of the
vertical vein west of the shaft was
put up the usual height during the
week, with conditions remaining
much the same as have previously
been reported. The raise is follow
ing ND a width of milliHg grade ore
that measures between ~ and 2
feet. A new raise was started dur
ing the week, at the western ex-
tremity of the vein, in the foot-wall.
Good Roadway is now ling made
by the raise, but it has failed to dis
close anything of Importance as yet
and its progress SO far has been in
waste. The usual amount of stop
ing was lone on the vertical vein,
which still holds it's width at 2 to
8 feet and continues to furnish a
satisfactory tonnage of milling
grade ore.
On the 600-foot level, the raise
in the western end of the MiZpah
vein was stopped by the manage
ment during the week, nothing of
value having been found in the
height to which the raise assembled.
There was no interruption, however,
to the work of stopping on the same
vein, and it continues to make pro-
gress against a 8 to 4-foot face of
milling grade ore, the regular ton
nages having been extracted and
sem to the mill.
At the Sandgrass claim, the only
development work took place on
the 1140-foot level, in the two cross
cuts that are headed toward each
other for the purpose of making a
connecting link between the Merger
and the Sandgrass shafts. That the
progress made is satisfactory is
attested by the footage record for
the week. which at this portion of
the mine, amounted to III feet,
an average Of owe 55 feet having
been made in advancing the faces Of
the two crosscuts. There has been
no change in conditions at either
of the workings.
Under the 1140-foot level, stop
ing was continued on the Upper
SandgraSS vein. with conditions sat-
isfactory in every respect. The
vein holds it's width at between 4
to 3 feet and continues to show
good milling values as the stopping
proceeds. The usual extraction
was made at this point, as well as
on the Breccia vein, below the 1900
foot level, which maintains an aver
G width of 800 feet and is supply
ing milling grade ore.

KNIGHTS ARE SNOWBOUND
OVERNIGHT IN TONOPAH

The large crowd of knights of
Pythias hat went to Tonopah by
auto last night on a visit to the
Tonopah lodge were compelled to
remain all night on account of the
road being made impossible by the
snowstorm. At midnight G. f. Red
man and Ben Henley, in their cars
attempted the return trip, but were
unable. to negotiate the first hill
out of Tonopah, the snow being pill
ed in high drifts that prevented
their following the road. They
ploughed through for several hun
dred yards, the drifts being over
the radiators, but the snow packed
on the bottom of the cars so solid
ly as to prevent the wheels securing
traction and they were compelled to
turn back.
