MASONIC CAMP
HAS RICH MINE

After battling for years against odds
that seemed to have the best OF the
situation for a number of years the
camp of Masonic has asserted its
right to be classed with the substan-
tial mining camps of the West In
manner against whick knocking and
ill-fortune will have no effect, says
the Bridgeport Chronicle-Union.
Mining activities have been carried
on In a desnltory manner for the
fifteen years. but the development of
the last year have been instilled a
spirit of confidence that Is forcing the
work of uncoyering the large bodies OF
ore that carry values that run up into
the thousands of dollars per ton. There
are a great many tunnels and shafts,
which have been reported to have
struck the pay streak, which have
been shut down and abandoned for
reasons which have never been ex-
planned. This method of mining,
however. viii be shuffled into the dis
card as the proven value of the ore
that is being shipped by the leasers of
the Shining mine proves to the most
pessimistic that there is a real mining
camp at Masonic.
There may be a reason for the pes
simsm that has existed In the past
IN the fact that the ore conains a
high percentage of tellurium, a sub
stance that very few prospectors the
aftaa
or prospector would throw the ore
away as worthless.
The Chimnng mine. leased by AL
Cook and associates, has been develop
cd To greater extent than any other
mine In the district. This mine Is To-
Gated about three miles from what Is
known as the Old Town,-a townsite
located by Messrs. Hayes and Delruy
several years ago. The rock In this
mine began showing high values at
the mouth of the shaft and increased
In value sor apidly that II os almost
unbelievable. At forty feet the ore
was so rish that il was expressed In
ore sacks. As depth was obtained
the ore kept inereaing in value till
rock assaying as high as $4,000 per
ton has appeared In large quantities
There is ore enough blocked out at
the present time to keep mill busy
for the next year at least.
The last truck load of high-grade was
sent to the selby Smelling Works Fri
day. This will end shipping opera
tions till spring opens up and the new
road from bridgeport built.

Walther League
Convention Held

The Seventh Annual Convention of
the Northern California and Nevada
District of the Walther League was
held at st. Johns Lutheran Church,
San Francisco. January II and 18th
Over one hundred delegates from var
ious cities throughout Northern Cali
fornia and Nevada attended the sess-
ions.
Saturday was givn to the entertain
ment of the visiting delegates, with
a sightseeing trip through San Fran
cisco in the afternoon, and a banquet
in the evening. Sunday afternoon was
taken up with a rather spirited busi-
ness meeting. A special Walther
League Service in the evening brought
to ac lose one of the most successful
conventions ever held by the League
The Walther League is an organiza-
tion of Young Peoples Societies for
the maintenances of the best interests
of our Lutheran Churches. The re-
lports of the various committees show
ed that the passed year had been one
of the most successful and most pros
porous since it organization. The
League embraced in the Northern CAL
ifornia and Nevada District now has a
membership of of eighteen societies
with over $50 members.
The St Luke's Santa Rosa are the
proud winners of the loving cup
awarded to the society gaining the
most members during the period of
one year
AS a National organization the
Walther League extends from the
Southern States into Canada, and
from the Atlantic to the coast of Cali
fornia. During the year 1919 the Ma
tional League showed remarkable
growth. The total membership of the
League at the present day includes
more than 23,50O young people.
The Young Peoples Society of the
local Lutheran Church Is member OF
the Walther League, 1t having been
admitted as such on April 9Th 1918.
The Society elected Edward Godecke
as a delegate to the San Francisco
convention. and since the delegate
from the Y.P. S. at Reno could not at
tend, Mr.. Godecke represented both
Societies at the convention.

there is now an established field for
truck, freight. passenger. express and
mail lines. Further, that all of these
agencies should for the future be es-
tablished and regulated in the inter-

The people of Nevada are opposed
to laying any undue restrictions upon
auto transportation development and
service and this is especially true
throughout the agricultural, livestock
and mining sections of our state. The
birth of many rich mining camps of

likely that there will be water
shortage next season. Reports state
that the snow in mountains Is far be-

With this comes the news that the
farmers of California are beginning to
worry over present conditions. At
this time OF the year the normal rain

years Wonderful for its spring-like
days and clear skys, but not in the

farmers would like to have seen.
When the storms started early last

the farmers. Then 1t was predicted d
that big storm would come during
January, but the prediction proved
deceptive, as far as this section was
concerned. Now we are told that
