Struggling Precinct Returns Now Bring campbeII's Majority in State to 299. His Election Is Certain.

Telephone and telegraph returns received at the headquarters of the republican state committee this week from a half dozen small precincts in different parts of the state slight ly revised the figures of the week be- fore, bringing Campbell's majority to 299. There are sixteen precincts still out, and some of them will not be heard from until after the official count Five of them are in Apache county. One is Fredonia in Coco nino which is sure to give Campbell majority of from 20 to 25.
 The managers of the Campbell cam paign feel absolutely sure that the returns from the missing precincts cannot reduce Campbells' majority below 25O. They have therefore lost interest in the matter and are awaiting only the official count.

Tungsten Mines at Mill City
Purchased by London Company

tungsten at Mill City, and he and
some of his associates secured some
ground which has already yielded
them fortunes. Friedman Is ship
ping one car every day, and soon ex-
poets to ship as to 100 tons a day.
Harry Sutton went in there broke
and in the past two or three months
has shipped, according to the best
reports obtainable, 100000 worth
of concentrates.
Mike Farretta and a partner took
a lease and with IL sticks Of pow
der got out a car Of ore that brought
them $4,000.
Sutton, Farretta and partners
have taken in w. G. Pitt of Lovelock
and incorporated and are now put
ting in a compressor and some 9TH
er machinery.
1t is estimated there r rs men
at work in the district, where there
was not a man before the discovery
of tungsten.
The ore is shipped to Toulon, west
of Lovelock, on the Southern Pa
cific, and concentrated in the mill
which was built for the Ragged Top
tungsten mines, which played out
last year. The ore is all shipped
under government orders, going to
Pennsylvania to be used in the steel
mills and gun factories. Each con-
signment is addressed to some army
officer.
Tungsten is now quoted at $3.50
a unit or $3.50 a pound for pure
~scheelite. The average ore is con-
centrated to about 60 per cent,
making the concentrates worth
about IS cents a pound.
/, 1t is said that the big London
concern has secured options on a
number of other claims, some OF
which have not reached the produc-
ing stage.
Tungsten is notorious for playing
out when least expected. That was
what happened at Ragged Top. But
mining men who have visited the
Mill City tungsten mines say the ore
appears there in veins, and for this
reason 1t is thought the supply will
be more lasting.-Reno Gazette.

MAYFlOWtR OPENS
BIG ORE DEPOSITS
COMPANIES MILL WILL SOON BE
OPERATING ATT
CAPACITY

Comprehensive developments are
proceeding along more vigorous
lines at the Mayflower mines, with
President w. J. Tobin personally
directing the work. Particular at
tention Is being devoted to the new
orebody in the Starlight claim, with
indications highly favorable for the
development of a large tonnage of
shipping ore. The ledge, apparent
ly the continuation of the great May
flower vein, is being opened In en-
tjrely virgin territory, and ship
nents are already being made to
the Kennett smelter.
AS soon as connections have been
established between the Mayflower
and Starlight shafts by the drift
from the 800 level, on which work
is progressing, the company will be
in a position to produce heavily
from both points. Shipping and
milling ore continues to be opened
on the 200, 800 and 400 levels of
the Mayflower shaft, and enough
quartz Is exposed to insure a long
run of the full battery of Is stamps,
in addition to a steady supply of
shipping material.
Operation of the second 5-stamp
battery is still prevented by the
ron-arrival of new screens, plates.
and other equipment, due to the
slow freight movements. 1t is GER
tain, however, that in the imme-
date future the three 5-stamp units
will be operated at capacity, as the
difficulty in securing prompt ship
ment of equipment Is the only OBJ
stacle working against operation OF
the mine and plant with a full force.
Five stamps r dropping steadily.
The ore being shipped is averaging
around 1872 per ton.
Under management of President
Tobin, plans are being rapidly per-
fected for vigorous operations at
the Pioneer Consolidated. This
property contains impressive ore re-
serves, and arrangements are being
made to operate the mill with eco
nomical power. The mine is n of
the largest and best equipped in the
district.-Tonopah Miner.

BROTHER OF AMERICAN COM
MANDER INDICATES NEED
FOR ACTION
Ships or collins?

OnlpS OF COHluS!
The government must speed up
on one or theother. This Is the
opinion of James F. Pershing, bro
t..er of General P%ershing, who
speaks for himself and not from
anything he draws from the COM
mander of the American forces in
Europe.
Pershing Is a travelling salesman
with headquarters in Chicago. He
travels from coast to coast, and
this morning he declared that the
country is asleep at the switch"
Whats the matter with people?"
he asked. why don't they get
awake and get busy?
They know the world is ablaze,
yet they talk business and profits.
"a man l know said: 1 have
bought Liberty Bonds, l have con-
tributed to the Red Cross, l have
subscribed for Savings Stamps.
Business isn't what it might be.
profits are uncertain, so l can do
anything more now.
Suppose one of our soldiers
should step out of the trenches after
a thirty-six hour shift and say to
his commander, It's a bit mucky in
there and wet, and cold. and my
Zones ache, and l don't like this
blinking at death day and night, so
I'm not going back there"
1.-THE soldier in the front line
has more right to say that than the
fellow sitting safely back of the
lines has to say he isn't going to
do any more NOW
"Now's the time when every
Americans got to do to the limit.
"Now's the time to show that
we're in earnest by taking alien
enemies, and instead of putting
them in an internment camp and
feeding them chicken, put them
against a wall and feed them grape
shot.
81 know my brothers got the big
gest job that ever fell to the lot of
man, and unless Americans wake
up and get behind him-well, the
Hun'll get us, and. get us quick.
We've got to decide which we're
going to build the quickest and the

A big deal in Mill City tungsten
was made Friday when a group of
claims we're sold through Bradley &
Mckenzie, brokers of San Francisco,
to some concern said to be the big
gest tungsten operators in the world.
1t is understood the purchaser is the
Moreing-Berwick company of Lon
don.
From what little can be learned
of the deal it appears that half a
dozen of the producing tungsten
claims near Mill City were sold by
the various owner in a group for
$4,000, a large payment being
made and the balance promised in
four months. Those known to be
interested in the sale are George
Copley, merchant at Inlay, Harry
Baker, a clerk in Copley's store;
George E. Gavin, justice of the peace
a Inlay, and C. J. McFadden, trav-
cling auditor for the Nevada indus
trial insurance commission.
This property has been divided
up among leasers for some time.
Foreg & Steng, working one lease,
have shipped $50 tons and have sew
en- more cars which concentrates 70
per zen tungstic acid. Maupin &
Perkins have a good lease and have
taken out several thousand dollars
worth of ore In a few weeks. Harry
Baber took a lease on his own and
partners ground and is said to have
struck the biggest thing yet uncos

Of the property, but refused to give
out anything for publication, except
to say that the new owners planned
to put up a mill as soon as possible,
