RAND DISTRICT
RECEIVES attention

l. ! f
The Rand district is situated e
miles east of Nolany station on the
Southern Pacific road to Goldfield
46 miles north of Tonopah, and about
II miles south of Rawhide, Fairview
Wonder and Broken Hills. This
district was discovered about the
time Of the Rawhide boom in 1907,
1908. 1t comprises a district "a miles
long and about three miles long.
Bovard was the townsite and at least
1000 men were camped in the vincin
ity at that time.
When Rawhide was abandoned the
town of Bovard became memory,
and it is only within the last year
that the Rand district has been
brought to the attention of he min
ing world
The peculiar formation of the dis
trict being free from granite, favors
the finding of lodges with an assur-
ance Of permanency. The dykes are
diorite and andecite, permeated with
quartz stringers. The general trend
of the veins are easterly and westerly.
Gold values predominant with the
proportion of gold and silver running
ounce for ounce.
The Gold Pen mine is he main at
traction of the camp and from the
version of some very prominent min
ing men it is one of the big mines OF
the state This mine has sold some
stock, but the intention of Mr.. Want
land, the president, who is himself
very wealthy man, is to make the
mine a dividend payer and he is not
particularly anxious TO have,the stock

AUTHORITY EXPLAINS
OIL LEASING BILL

When portions q; the Oil Leasing
Bill reached Fallon such informa-
ton as could be had was eargcrly
sought There arc about $4,000 acres
within the limits Of what is known as
the Fallon Oil District. This has all
been taken up by the 40 incorporated
companies and any number for pri-
vate individuals. A very large por-
ton d: this land was taken up after
October 1st and by wording Of the
bill some were i'll doubt as to the
status of land located prior to that
date. The companies that were drill
ing felt secure but it left about SO III
doubt as to what the mode of proceed
ure should be. The writer submitted
the matter to Wayne T. Wilson, the
Reno attorney He was selected as
he has long been identified as an at
torney and an operator in oil and
mining companies He has made
these matters a speciality
AS the leasing bill is United
States law it not only effects the Fal-
Ion district but oil holdings and the
stockholders in oil companies all
over the country. The Ajmore Oil
& Refining Company was selected
for the opinion as its holdings were
located prior to October LIST and all
requirments of the then existing
laws, both state and national, were
complied with. Mr.. Wilson's opinion
is as follows

WANTS THEM BACK

J. F. Fredricks,. who was in
Bridgeport the other day, reported
that J. D. Martin had gained con
troll 0i the Masonic Mines Associa-

number OF claims in Masonic during
the past years, but he stated that he
did not believe there was anything
in the camp so he pulled up stake"

saying that he was III close to SIPS

 Judge Sawtelle after hearing a spirited argument by Colonel John K. Martin for the government and At torney McCann for the defendant de- cided that the position taken by the defendant shou 1 be sustained
 thereupon in opencourt instructed the United States attorney that he must not per mithis evidence to be used or introduced in any manner be- fore either the grand jury or the trial jury The action taken by Judge Saw. telle was based upon the recent de cision of the United States supreme court and indicates the course of pro cedure which must be followed in the future by all agents of the govern ment Immediately after the decision there was a mad scramble of attorneys all asking for permission to file simi lar petitions with the court.

 Holding that it was more impor' tant that the constitutional rights of persons living within the United States should be protected than that any number of violators of the liquor laws or of any laws should be appre- hended Judge Sawtelle this afternoon handed down a decision affecting the rights of practically all the defendants to be called before the bar of justice at this term of the federal court.
 The decision was given in the case of the United States vs. Ed Looney. Attorneys McGann & Watson repre- senting the defendant in this and many other cases presented petition to the court setting forth that govern ment agents had invaded the private home of Looney without a search warrant and had removed several bottles and other personal property. They asked that the United States Attorney, Marshal and Clerk be in structed to return this property to defendant, and that in any event they

 l am a native born citizen of the United States, having first seen the light of the day, forty-seven years ago, in the state of Alabama. I came to my adopted State of Arizona in 1897, locating at Clifton, where engaged in the mercantile business. Later I bought land in the Gila valley, near Solomonville, and devoted myself to farming and cattle raising. I served six years as County Recorder of Ora ham County. I was elected a member of the Constitutional Convention in 1910. In 1914 I was elected Treasur' CT of the State, serving one term.

MEXICAN KILLS HIS CO-WORKER
 WHILE GOING ON SHIFT

What appears, on first information, to have been a cold blooded murder, was committed at Morenci this morn- ing, while the miners were going on shift. AS the men were going through the gate at the Humbolt mine Pedro Dominguez suddenly drew 3S calibre Smith and Weston revolver from his pocket and without any warning, shot one of his fellow workers (name unknown) The bullet entered the neck and came out at the back of the head. Death was practically instan- taneous The assailant then turned the weapon on another man but was seized by the shift boss, an American, who disarmed him and turned him over to the deputy sheriff who soon arrived on the scene.
 The assailant is a stranger in the district having arrived in Morenci about two weeks ago from Douglas.
 Sheriff Slaughter was notified at Clifton and went to Morenci and brought the prisoner to the county jail where he is being held without bond.
 No cause for the murder is known.
