Arrange. for Carload of Di.tilIa.s

The Eureka Garage has been sup
plying the mining companies of this
district with distillate, but has been
unable to obtain any for the past
month owing to the scarcity of con-
tainers. w. H. Russell this week
succeeded in obtaining enough con-
tainers to make a carload shipment
and has arranged with the agency
of the Standard Oil Company at Elko

to Eureka. He now expects to re-

HOLLY MINES BONDED

Thomas Robinson, a former Eu-
reka resident. now President of the
San Francisco Mining Exchange. was
an arrival in Eureka by Tuesdays
train. Mr.. Robinson and associates
recently took a bond on the Holly
group of mines on Adams Hill, and
his present visit here was to CON-
mence active development work on
the properties. This property is full
ly equipped with machinery, build
ings, ETC., to start work at once, but
it was found that owing to the in
ability of obtaining a supply of dis
tillate in Eureka at this time the
commencement of work would have
to be postponed. Mr.. Robinson
stated that it had been planned to
sink from the present workings on
the 400 level an additional 100 feet
and to commence other development
work in the mine. Arrangements
for securing a supply of distillate to
arrive here next week have been
about completed; and it is now
thought the new work of develop
ment on the Holly properties can be
started in about ten days. MIR. Rob-
inson was accompanied to Eureka by
Knight S. Jordan, a mining engineer
of Salt Lake connected with the
Knight mining interests. of Utah.
who during his several days visit
here has been looking over the dis
trict with a view of interesting his
company in some of the mineral
showings and possibilities of the
camp.

LAW POINT UP FOR DECISION

In the case of Bert Smith, w. J..
Mahoney and w. A. Weymouth,
plaintiffs. against the Humboldt
Land & Cattle Company, in which
the plaintiffs seek to condemn certain
lands belonging to the defendant, for
mining purposes, the demurrer to
the complaint of plaintiffs was ar
gued in the District Court on We'd
nesday of this week. Both parties
were given time in which to file
briefs before a decision will be rem
derered.
This action was brought under an
Act of the Legislature of 1907, which
allows one person to go upon the
land of another and prospect for
minerals and locate claims and con-
denim and take the land for mining
purposes if it can be shown that it is
o valuable for mining than for
the purpose for which it is used.
The defendants in this case claim
that the law has been repealed, and
if not, that it is unconstitutional. and
since the question has not been
passed upon by the Supreme Court,
and there are other similar cases,
this n will no doubt be made a test
case and will be followed with much
interest.
