LARGE NEW OREBOOY
UNCOVERED IN RUTH

\ new discovery is reported To have
been made at the Ruth mine last Fri
day and is said to be of considerable
Importance. While it has been impos-
siblc to confirm the report from an
authoritative source il is said TO have
Occurred about 600 feet northeast OF the
Ruth shaft and about the same dis
tance In northerly direction form
the Strike made few months ago
The drilling operations being prose
cuted by the company are believed 10
have brought about this new discovery.
The ore is said to average better than
2 per cent in copper and is known To
To be $50 feet thick. This is as far as
the drill prospecting has gone and the
exact depth of the orebody naturally
cannot be determined until greater
depth has been reached
The new discovery would seem to in
dieate that the orebodies underlying
the proven ground around the Ruth
section are OF far greater value than
even the most op.omistic had imagined.
Since the opening of the big pits
with further development work the
orcbodies have widencd out.

M'FADDEN TO PASS
ON GAMBLING LOSSES

The cases OF j. u. Stone and others
against Joe Geiser and J. u. Stone and
others against Ed Wilson and Clyde
Hatch were argued yesterday in tn
district court The complaints filed
in the cases claim that defendants
wronsfully took possession of certain
premissory notes belonging to plain
tins. The total amount named in the
two complaints is s3.2oo.
Attorney Anthony Zurich fer the de-
feEse offered two motions in the cases.
one TO quasn the summons and the
other to set aside the replevin. He
also filed a demurrer
Attorney G. A. Eddy appeared for
the plaintiffs and argued against the
motions. The cases were continued
until Monday.
The history OF the cases appears Ia
be that an agent for the Automatic
Sewing Machine Company came into the
district some time ago and sold sew
ing machines on time. taking promis-
sorry notes for the balances due on the
machines Subs iluently the agent lost
the promissory notes while gambling

ing Company and the copartners IN

second suit the Bank seeks to recover
si.O26.sS against the same parties and
joins f. A. whitney as an individual.
Two suits involving smaller amounts
were brought in the justice court by
creditors against the company.
The parties mentioned have been

old Argus mine at Taylor since 1918,
at which time the Argus Mines Com

Duckauater Merchant
Extremely Pessimistic

Tom Mccreary. the Duckwater mer-
chant. arrived in Ely last Thursday
and when asked as to business condi-
tions in his section said that the main
object OF his visit to the county seat
was to have DIR. Wallace fit him with
a set of teeth In order that he might
engage in the business which he finds
most to his liklng--that of properly
caring for his stomach.
Mr.. McGeary said that business gen.
orally was not good in and around
Duckwater. which he attributed to thu
fact that money was not as free as IL
has been in months gone by. lie said
that while hay was plentiful at all
the ranches the stockmen were unable
TO raise money with which to purchase
IL and therefore found 1t necessary to
drive sheep farther south. where they
could take advantage of the .argc on
the public domain. Mr.. McGeary is
not enthusiastic over the recent
change" and expresses the opinion
that IL the ranchers have good luck
next year they will have Just twice
as much hay as they have~this year.
because they will have both crops on
their hands.

JUDGE TABER RULES AGAINST

mas settled in the conclusion above in

er in the courts best judgment.
IN arriving at this conclusion l
have been Influenced to some extent
by the dicta of the supreme court of
Minnesota in the case of William .

against Holt, 16i n. w. $50, at page
5si second column.
Being of the opinion that the con-
tract alleged Is aginst the public policy
OF the state of Nevada. in that itIends
to have an injurious effect on the i'm
partial and just administration of its
criminal law. I must hold that the de-
murrer be sustained on the ground
that the complaint does not state facts
sufficient to constitute cause of ac-
ton. An order will be entered in ac-
coidance herewith. -

Elko officers Do Not
Like White Pine Brand

George Bralis, who WAS arrested in
Eiko on a charge of violating the pro-
hibitien law. as tcld exclusively in the
News two weeks ago. was sentenced
last week to pay fine in the sum OF
800 and spend seve nty five days in the
Elko county Jail.
Braiis was released on bail after his
arrest and returned to Ely for a few
days before facing the Elko districi
Judge to learn his fate.
Tho sentence is undoubtedly stifi
one and would indicate that perhaps
the brand manufactured in White Pine
county is not highly appreciated IN
Elko.

SIC od, has been done. Subsequent 10
execution of the original option a sup
Elemental agreement was entered into
by which the purchasers were released
from the obligation of having the mill
then to be erected revert to the owners
of the property in the event the agree
memnt should not be fully complied
with. This would seem To afford pro-
lection TO the creditors. and further
than that the men interested in the co.
partnership are said to be of sound
financial standing.
The property Is like many others IN
White Pine county in that those in
position to know express the firm be-
lief that will. proper development a
big mine will be opened.
During the years 1883 to 1856 the
property was operated and at that
time. when silver was selling around
$50 per ounce. the ore was brought
TO the old Argus mill for concentration.
These in charge of the mine handled
only such ore as would bring an aver
age OF 60 ounces or better
Competent mining men who have
worked at the mine and visited the
property from time 10 time in years
past say that an irregular outerop can
be traced for 1900 feet.
This property is one of the many
that would doubtless benefit by the re-
duction of freight rates recently Sc
cured and which would enable those
operating the property to handle low
grade as we'll as high grade ore.
The parties who have been working
the property since 1915 have expended
large sums of money and with bright
prospects ahead IL seems reasonable to
assume that the recent difficulties may
be quickly adjusted. and il Is hoped
that the work may be continued with
out further interruption. No commun.
ity can have too many mines and the
old Argus is one which deserves at
tention. Those risking their money
are likewise entitled to due considera-
tion and for the benefit of all those di-
reetly concerned. as well as the COM
munity in general. the News joins in the
hope that such arrangements may be
made as will warrant the further pre-
gress of the development work and the
opening of the more paving mine.

yesterday at the well OF the Iliipah

About $3.50 p. m. the drill was

a dozen bailfuls were taken from

as though oil in commercial guam

Mining Notes of
the Ely District

S Il. Ebert, Manager of the Ward
mine. reports a daily shipment of about
fifty tons of ore to East Ely for trans
portation to the smelter. The ore Is
being transported from the mine In
three Packard trucks and il is expect
ed that two more trucks will arrive
shortly. Operations are going on
steadily at the mine and the ore Is
being shipped to the Salt Lake smeit-
ers under contract.
The Ward mine is one of the prop
critics which has directly benefited by
the reduction in freight rates on low
grade ore made by the Interstate COM
merce Commission on the petition of
the Nevada Northern railway.
The No Plus Ultra mine at Hamilton
has Just shipped carload of high
grade silver-lead ore. which arrived
Mt Kimberly this week to he forwarded
TO the Salt Lake smelters.
John w. Nyce. who is working the
Jennie A. property. is sending his high
grade ore over the road TO Kimberly.
where it will be loaded on cars for
