SPECIAL ELECTION IS
/. OF SLIGHT INTEREST

The hearing of the Pershing county
petition for an order restraining
Humboldt county from holding a spe-
cial election the 18th of next month
under the referendum law of 1915, is
on in district court this. afternoon,
Judge f. +. Lunsford of Reno sitting
for Judge Callahan in the matter.
Barring attorneys for the county,
and court attaches, Humboldt county
was unrepresented at the opening of
proceedings, showing an apparently
utter lack of interest by citizens of
Winnemucca. As the afternoon ad-
vanced word was passed around that
somebody ought to be there" and
citizens dropped into the court room
one by one. At 2:15 o'clock there
were eight spectators who were resi-
dents of this town. Pershing county
was represented by about the same
number.
In their opening, attorneys fpr
he new county disclosed a queer
discrepancy in Nevada election laws,
in this. to wit: That whereas the So
:alled referendum law provides that
5ounty commissioners must, upon tn ,
proper 40-per-cent petitions being
lied. call special election to be held
within forty days, section II of the
Nevada election laws of 1918 reads
rs follows:
THE county clerk shall close all
registration for the full period of
twenty days prior to ANY election.
Within three days after the. closing
of registration he shall transmit to
he Secretary of State statement
showing the number of voters regis
cred in said county, approximating
he number of registry cards not yet
received at his Office. The county
clerk of each county must cause to

BONN|F|ELD LOCATED
+, DIVIDE DURING 1905

TITS the biggest mine | have ever
seen in my life," was the first COM
ment made by r. X. Brown sof the
Winnemucca hotel this morning when
asked what he thought about Divide
Brown returned here from Tonopah
yesterday morning, where he was
sent by New York men, in his ca
pacity of mining engineer. He will
return to Tonopah next week.
Brown said Divide is the biggest
thing this generation will see; that
it is far bigger than the Goldfield
Consolidated, from which seventy
eight million dollars were produced.
While there Brown looked at all
available ground for his principals,
preceding w. A. Kerr, owner of the
Balakala Copper mine at Redding.
California, one of the large copper
properties of the United States, and
{. w. Geddes of New York, mining
and consulting engineer Browns
recommendation caused the purchase
by these men and their associates of
the Wonder claim and three fractions,
Brown being of opinion that this
property is along the strike of the
main fault fracture of the Divide dis
trict. The Wonder claim adjoins the
Gold Reef Divide and is so near the
center of Divide district and along
the main fault fracture as to COM
mand high price.
Geological conditions of Divide, said
Brown, will without doubt be similar
to those of the Tonopah district
three separate periods of enrichment,
with intrusions and fractures-and
he is convinced other mines will be
found as rich as the Divide.
Claims staked in 1905 by the late
VI. S. Bonnifeld of this city were dis
covered by Brown in the Divide dis
trict-claims located right in the CEN
ter of the Divide district and not
more than quarter of mile from
the Wonder property. Possession of
the claims, of course, has long since
been outlawed because assessment
work was not kept up by Bonnifield.
Sam Crittenden, who went with
Brown to Tonopah, will remain at
the new camp.

NOT JOBS FOR MEN
BUT MEN FOR JOBS

Quite contrary to scare-head ap-
peals sent broadcast by politically
appointed information bureaus. re-
garding the labor market, there is a
decided shortage of labor. What is
needed in Nevada is an agitation to
supply help for businesses which
need it badly The Elko Free Press
says: Marshal Cotant says he has
calls for more than fifty men to go
to work on farms and ranches, but
that he has been unable to find any
men to accept the jobs. The farmers
are clamoring for men and are offer
ing from $50 to $65 per month and
board, with steady employment Re-
ports from California say that there
are thousands of unemployed men in
the large cities. Now if the govern
ment would only ship some of these
men to Nevada our problem would be
solved
A letter received in Winnemucca
this morning from Tonopah declares
that men in any line may command
their own wages in that camp. All
kinds of labor, skilled and unskilled
is wanted; but one drawback is that
men might have to sleep out of doors
for time.
A local business man said to The
Silver State this morning that he
had spent hours looking for a man
to dig up pipe at his residence, and
finally had to take a day off yester-
day and do the job himself (And he
put his hand on his back.)
Phil Triplett of the Nevada State
Herald at Wells has had to farm
out" some of the county printing
awarded to him, although he got his
name into publications of nation
wide circulation during his agitated
quest of a printer, in which he jour-
neyed to Salt Lake City.
And. speaking of printers, if any
body knows a printer who can print
and. will, just send him to the office
of The Silver State, and no questions
asked. Steady job. We have beer
trying fora month to land one.
