NEW ACTIVITY ON
TYPO PROPERTIES
COMING OF RAILROAD AND
SHELTER TO REJUVENATE
OLD MINES
(By James f. O'Brien)

While the mine operators of the
old camp of Hamilton are greatly in
terested in and will welcome with
open arms the building of the
smelter and railroad in the central
part of Nevada by the Louisiana
Consolidated Mining company, they
are by no means sitting with folded
hands awaiting the happy day. On
the contrary, a number of properties
are being worked and much of the
ore is of such a high grade that it
returns a fat profit, even with the
expensive wagon haul to Ely or
Eureka and the high freight and
treatment charges after the ore has
reached either of those points.
The Peterson group of II claims is
being operated by Clyde Tilford, and
he already has a couple of cars of
high grade sacked and ready for
shipment. The Ely Record notes
his arrival in the big copper camp
last week, where he went to make
arrangements for marketing this ore.
The vein which Mr.. Tilford is work
ing is six feet in width, one foot
carrying values averaging SO per
cent lead and 20 ounces silver
about sis per ton. The remaining
five feet of the vein will average
between $50 and $40 a ton, and
while this cannot be marketed at a
profit without being first concen-
trated, it will be considered an ex-
cellent grade with a nearby railroad
and smelter.
Among others who are noted as
taking out splendid ore at Hamil-
ton are the Allen brothers, John
Nyce, Charles Osterlund and Wilson
& Johnson. The latter are shipping
via Eureka. which is about the same
distance to Ely.
Although no definite particulars
nave been given out, it is reported
that negotiations are pending for
the r%eopening of the Morey mine,
and it is believed that before the
summer is over it will again be pro-
ducing the rich silver ore that made
it famous in the old days. Morey is
35 miles northeast of Typo and 60
miles south of Eureka, to which
point its ores had to be shipped by
wagon when it was producing.
The cause of the idleness of the
Morey mine for SO many years is
one in common with several good
properties in hat section-dwindling
price of silver, expense of handling
increased flow of water as depth
was gained, and the fact that the
mine was owned by wealthy New
Workers, to whom it was but a side
issue. According to old-time min
ers of Eureka who worked in the
mine, the ore shipped from the
Morey went from $500 to $3.50 per
ton-that which went less than 500
being thrown on the dump.
The Louisiana Consolidated Min
ing company will. before the week
is out, have five Duplex auto trucks,
with trailers attached, in service
between Tonopah and it's Typo mine,
two more having just been delivered
by the agent in Reno. The original
order of the company was for 10
trucks, with two trailers for each,
and delivery of the balance has been
promised within a few weeks. AS a
single truck and trailer carries seven
tons to the load. the entire fleet of

81 Did Not Raise My Boy
to be a Soldier
nv Edwin Markham)

o mothers, will you longer give your sons
To feed the awful hunger of the guns?
What is the worth of all these battle drums
If from the field the loved one never comes!
What all these loud hosannas to the brave,
IF all YOUR share is some forgotten grave?

THE INsELFIsH MOTHERS ANSWER

-
God gave my son in trust to me;
Christ died for him., and he should be
A man for Christ. He is his own,
And Gods and mans; not mine alone.
He was not mine to give" He gave
Himself that he might help to save
All that a Christian should revere,
All that enlightened men hold dear.
''To feed the guns!' Oh, torpid soul!
Awake and see life as a whole.
When freedom, honor, justice, right,
Were threatened by the despot's might,
With heart aflame and soul alight,
He bravely went for God to fight
Against base savages whose pride
The laws of God and man defed;
Who slew the mother and her child,
Who maidens pure and sweet defiled.
He did not go "tO feed the guns"
He went to save from ruthless Huns
His home and country, and to be
a guardian of democracy.
What if he does not Gomez" you say;
Nh, we'll! My sky would be more gray,
But through the clouds the sun would shine,
And vital memories be mine.
Gods test of manhood is, | know,
.Not. VIII lt tOllC! DoV No III "
Ny son well knew that he might die,
And yet he went, with purpose high,
To fight for peace, and overthrow
The plans of Christs relentless foe.
He dreaded moi the battlefield;
He went to make fierce vandals yield.
IF he comes not again to me
shall be sad; but not that he
Went like a mana hero true
His part unselfishly to do.
NV heart will feel exultant pride
That for humanity he died.
"Forgotten gravel This selfish plea
Awakes no deep response in me,
For. though his grave I may not see,
NV boy will ne'er forgotten be.
Nv real son can never die;
Ills but his body that will lie
In foreign land, and | shall keep
Remembrance fond forever, deep
Within my heart of my true son,
Because of triumphs that he won.
1t matters not where anyone
Nav lie and sleep when work is done.
It matters not where some men live;
IF my dear son his life must give,
Hosannas I will sing for him,
Zen though my eyes with tears be dim.
And when the war is over, when
His gallant comrades come again,
I'll cheer them as they're marching by,
Rejoicing that they did not die.
And when his vacant place | see,
NV heart will bound with Joy that he
Was mine so long-my fair young SON
And cheer for him whose work is done.
Greater significance is given to these lines of |
hes by the fact that his own son was killed in acti
e time ago and now lies buried IN France.l

! The men are asking for an increase
in wages on The ground that the bonus
plan offered by the Wheeling Traction
company Is violation Of the wage
scale in effect between the company
and the men. Without any suggestion
whatever from their international OIL
fictrS, the men suspected thar there
was an ulterior motive behind that
step. from the time that 1t was an
nounced without their knowledge That
a. cash bonus was to be- offered them
They believe that it was a step TO lay
/ the foundation for future action that
! will be detrimental 10 them.
One Of the provisions in the bonus
announcement especially referred 10
by Mr.. Orr as one of the objectionable
features of the bonus plan is the
clause. That in no case shall the sum
OF a Trainman's rate under the con-
tract plus the bonus given exceed 81
cents per hour.

offering OF the bonus plan Is viola
