TO DISCUSS RAISING
OF TAHOE WATERS

A public hearing at which property
holders owning lands abutting Lake
Tahoe. will be given an opportunity to
be heard, will be held by Franklin X.
Lane. secretary of the interior, on
July %, according to notices re-
ceived from him.
The hearing will be held in connec-
tion with the recommendation of the
reclamation service that condemna-
tion proceedings to secure title to
certain lands abutting the lake be
secured by the government in order
that the level of the lake may be
raised and the outlet of the lake con-
trolled within the limits of six feet
with six inches depth over the out
let.
recommendation to this effect were
made by the engineers of the New
lands project following several
months effort to secure settlement
of the question with private owners.
The purpose is to secure more water
for the reclamation project and. ac-
cording to estimates of the engineers,
raising the level of the lake would
furnish water during the low stage
for the reclamation of $4,000 acres
of land.
At the present time there is short
age of water on many parts of the
Newlands project, especially in the
Fernley district. because it is impos-
sible to secure more water from the
present level. By raising the gates of
the outlet of the lake and allowing
more water to accumulate in the lake
during the wet season. 1t is contended
that it would be possible to regulate
the flow in such way that plenty
of water would be available all dur
ing the year.
Owners of property abutting the
lake contend that raising the level
of the lake would destroy part of their
holdings, and Congressman Kent of
California is leading the fight against
the proposal of the Newlands project
engineers.
j. G. Scrugham, state engineer, who
is in Washington on reclamation
work, will be present at the hearing.

LOCAL MEMS MINE
BOSTON FAvOR|TE

Gratifying news was received here
this morning when Boston news
papers arrived containing advertise
ments offering Haines Divide mining
stock at twenty-five cents per share.
Most of the Boston brokers repre-
sented were advertising the stock, and
using liberal space. To make things
even better a telegram was received
from Boston this morning stating
more than $26,00O had been subscribed
for Haines stock in the last twenty
four hours, entirely in the city of
Boston.
The Haines Divide is one of the
properties T. j. d. Salter of this city
went East to finance. The others
were the United Divide and the Honey
Bee, the last in the Willard district
Winnemuccans heavily interested in
Haines Divide are Messrs. f. Rein
hart, Campbell. Robins and Salter,
associated with Ray C. Haines of Bos-
ton. The mine is capitalized at ST.
100000 shares with par value of ten
cents each. 1t is notable that the
stock is now selling at twenty-five
cents per share, with the brokers
promising another raise when it is
put on the board"

Announcement comes today that there
is no more Honey Bee stock for sale.
Weir Bros. & Co. of New York, big
mine operators. have taken it up; a
concern which does not list stock nor
but operates mines for
what they contain. All of which
seems to imply that the mine is to be
a big producer.

cause of failure of the government
and manufacturers to take over theiI
product as they had been led to be-
lieve would be done by representa-
tions made during the war.
Governor Boyle in his address to
the commission, outlined the work
done by the tungsten producers OF
Nevada; the representations made to
them relative to the necessity of do
nestle production and the critical
condition of the industry resulting
from the overnight cancellation of
contracts by munition makers when
the armistice was signed, when they
the producers, were practically left in
the lurch after having gone to great
expense in preparing for enlarged
production
Many Nevada producers were pres
ent at the, meetings and the case of
each will be considered by the COM
mission. 1t is estimated that the
losses of Nevada producers reached
$1.00O,0O0, and as congress, through
the Henderson senate bill has ap-
propriated $S,50O.OOO for general repa-
ration purposes, it is probable that
miners of this state will get some
compensation for their losses.
Claims. ranging from $3.50 to $780,
600 were presented to the commits
sion of mining and law experts in
San Francisco.
The claim for $500 900 was made by
A. j. Loring, tungsten operator at
Mill City, who put in a mill there
and did considerable work. Many
other Nevada men have put in their
claims, including Tom Thorkildsen
of Las Vegas for manganese, the Ne
vada Humboldt Tungsten Mining
Company, S. NJ. Summerfield of Nina,
Joe Beane of Sodaville and others.
Sam Pfatt of Platt G. Sanford has
returned from the conference where
he represented several clients.
Questionnaires must be prepared by
the claimants and these must be sup
ported with sworn testimony. The
hearings will continue for several
weeks as the commissioners are going
into each case thoroughly.

TORTURED FEET

Don't cut your corns. The trimming
of corns can only give temporary re-
lief at best. The cutting is apt to
cause serious complications, such as
blood poisoning, etc. The thing to do
is to rid yourself entirely of corns by
using Corn Collode. You cannot USE
this preparation long without losing
all of your corns. Warm weather is
trying on your feet. but You can get
great relief by using our special foot
powder. which will stop sweating of
the feet.

TO ADVERTISE BIDS
FOR NEW Ell DORADO

Inc much-asked question of when
VIII they commence to rebuild the FL
Dorado hotel?" cannot be answered
today, after the meeting of the board
of directors of the First National
Bank, any better than it could be an
swered week ago.
George Wingfield, J. Sheehan. w. III.
Doyle, William Stock and G. f. Stall.
directors of the bank, were in attend
ance at the regular meeting today.
1t was decided to advertise for bids
for construction as soon as specifica-
tions can be compiled, but Mr.. Wing
field and other members of the board
fear no bids will be forthcoming, as
was the case with the county court
house. Mr.. Sheehan is a trifie more
optimistic. 1t was said the bank is
ready to go ahead if a bid at all salts
factory is submitted. The idea of re-
ducing the size of the structure is not
looked upon with favor. Reasons why
building bids are not forthcoming are
that the building material market is
very poor and probable cost of labor
is too uncertain.
Routine business was transacted
at the bank directors meeting. All
matters were found in excellent con-
dition and the usual dividend was
declared"

QUARTER OF MILLION
FOR DEVELOPMENT

"All eyes in the East are turned on
the developed mining properties of
Nevada and this state can have the
cream OF the country's investment
money IL it will just tell the world in
a sympathetic way all about the possi-
bilities of silver mining" said Col. T.
J. d. Salter as he took the train last
night on his way home to Winnie
mucca, says the Reno Gazette.
Col. Salter, who is president and
general manager of the newly organ
lied Honey Bee Mines Company. Just
capitalized for a million and a half
dollars with the finest kind of East
ern people back of it, returned Tues
day morning from a three months
trip to New York and Boston to in
terest Eastern financiers in proper
ties with which he is connected and
he has been very successful. He Sc
cured quarter of million for the
immediate development of the Honey
Bee estate. in the heart of the Will
lard district.
Il haven't share of stock to SELL"
he said, "and all l want to see is the
development not only of Willard dis
trict but also of every other district
in the State"
I'm New York I found the opinion
of brokers was unanimous that after
this oil excitement. along in the early
fall of this year. the investing public
will turn towards gold and silver min
ing. They told me. though. that great
as has been the money taken out of
silver mines in this state, the silver
mining industry was in its infancy and
that, while brokers of course knew all
about it, because it is their business to
know, yet the mass of the public had
not been educated on the subject of
silver possibilities.
Brokers of the keenest Judgment
and experience were a unit in the
opinion that Nevada is the state to
which the public will turn. This state
always has been a great producer and
hence has the confidence of the buy
ers of stocks and there is plenty of
money for properties that have merit.
but there must be some way of ad-
vertising what the state has-not ad-
vertising of any particular district.
but of all districts and of the possi-
bilities of mining in the entire state.
And it must be done systematically
and thoroughly-not piece meal. but
by wholesale, in the finest magazines,
in the great New York, Boston and
Philadelphia daily papers that go di-
rect to the homes of the investing
public. There should be fund raised
by the mining industry of Nevada to
which all mining men should con-
tribute and this money should be
spent in telling the East and the West
and the world at large what silver
mining is, what immense fortunes
it has produced and what wealth be-
yond dreams it is still to produce.
This will have to be done, if we are

to Elks' Xmas Fund


That the troops of the U. S. army
are just as anxious as the citizens of
Bogalusa to make the needy of the
city happy on Christmas day Is best
shown by the fact that at the dance
given Thursday evening by COM
mittee of ladies the troops raised a
fund of $72 which they turned over
to the committee. It came as the
most pleasant surprise of the even
ing and the ladies as well as the Elks
were profuse in their thanks.
The dance was one of the most
successful, if not the most success
full, in the history Of the city, profit
of $4,000 being realized.
A large number of merchants do
mated articles, many of which were
disposed Of during the evening, while
others will be placed in the Christ

the fact that the list is not complete
