CHIEF W|NNEMUCCA'S
MINISTER GRANDSON

The first Nevada youth to volun-
teer for service in the Episcopal
ministry since the church established
its first mission in this state, a half
century ago, is an Indian boy, Avery
Winnemucca, grandson of the famous
Chief Winnemucca, says the Carson
City News. Avery, whose home is at
Mon, in the Pyramid Lake reserva-
tion, graduated from the eight grade
at the Carson Indian school last
June. He will soon go to Pennsyl-
yania school to complete his train
ing with the object of becoming an
Episcopal clergyman and devoting
his life to service among the Indians.
He is now at Stewart, visiting friends
and awaiting arrangements for his
transportation East. He will go
East with Bishop Hunting in case the
latter decides to make the trip within
the next few days.

HARRY WARREN OUT
FOR D|ST.ATTORNEY

In another column of this issue of
The Silver State appears the an
nouncement of II. Warren, well
known attorney, as an independent
candidate for the office of district at
torney of Humboldt county. He has
resided in Humboldt county many
years; for more than twenty years he
has lived with his family in Win
nemucca and been here actively en-
gagged in the law practice. In 1903
he was appointed district attorney TO
fill the vacancy caused by the resig-
nation of the late r. X Murphy, and
served until the end of his term. AT
that time the county was infested
with the criminal element TO the de-
gree that neither life or property was
safe along the railroad. Murder and
other crimes were of almost daily
occurrence in this and other coun-
ties, but especially in Humboldt and
Washoe. Organized bands of Grim
inals with rendezvous from Truckee to
Salt Lake CITY prowled the night
bent on robbery and murder. If
necessary. 1t was largely due to the
service of Mr.. Warren that these
bands were broken up. During his
short term of Office in Humboldt
county sixteen members of one band
were convicted and sent TO Carson
and four more of them were hung
there
In 1904 he sought election to the
ONCE. but was defeated by Judge
Ducker. the present supreme judge
and has not since that time sought
public Office. He is not considered
much Of a politician, but as a public
officer he made good and will again.
If elected.

GOOD ASSAYS FROM
BROKEN HILLS ORE
[By William p. DeWolf1

BROKEN HILLS, Sept. 15.-New
developments in the Belmont incline
and the main shaft workings ON the
property of the Broken Hills Silver
Corporation have added largely to
the value of a property already in the
lime-light of mining attention. as
they demonstrate the deep-seated ORR
sin of the silyer-sulphide ore bodies
and their high average precious
metal content. This is the opinion
expressed by Arthur Perry Thomp-
son, consulting engineer of the
Broken Hills Silver Corporation, and
by other mining engineers OF we'll
established ability, who have in
spected the bonanza ore showings.
Similar ore bodies opened In past
days in the Leadville and Tonopah
mining districs brought quick fortune
to those who invested in the mining
shares of the DISTRICTS mentioned,
and it appears probable that history
is to repeat itself with further de-
velopment of the main and cross
vein systems opened in this, the dis
covery'' mine of the camp of Broken
Hills.
The west extension of the east
west cross vein that has been fol-
lowed downward to depth of ninety
feet in the Belmont incline on the
property of the Broken Hills Silver
Corporation has just been encoun-
tered under high grade silver-sul-
phide ore conditions similar to those
prevailing in the face of the east
drift on that level. An oficial
sampling of the new development.
made by Mr.. Thompson. gave an av-
erage assay return of $72.39 ton
across a four-foot face of ore, with
section two feet eight inches wide
along the footwall of the vein assay
ing an average of 1926 ton, and a
sixteen-inch section along the hang
ingwall assaying an average of $31.8S
ton.
To the east and west the faces or
ore are filled with silver-sulphides
having exceptional values and ore
yielding possibilities. ThompsOn's
sampling across two feet of the vein
in the east drift gave the sensational
average return of s401.7s a ton, with
ore of lesser value prevailing along
the hanging and footwalls. The i'm
portance of the development on the
ninety-foot level in the Belmont in
cline, and more especially of the new
development to the west, is better
understood when it is stated that the
distance between the west face and
the east face is ninety-two feet. The
intervening area, therefore, holds
heavy tonnage potentialities.

MAIL PLANE LOST
IN NEVADA DESERT

Three airplanes took up the search
yesterday morning for the missing
aerial mail carrier that left Reno
about eight o'clock Tuesday morning
bound for New York. The plane
piloted by John l.. Eaton has not
been reported since the station agent
at Desert, about sixty miles east of
Reno. reported in at ten o'clock
Tuesday. The plane carried 400
pounds of first-class mail.
Messages received in Reno yester-
day morning from Eureka stated the
aerial mail plane had passed over
that city about four O'Clock Tuesday
afternoon. Residents there were at
tracted by the sound of the motor
and distinctly saw the dark colored
ship, easily recognizing it as the
lost ship" says the Gazette.
Eureka is about fifty miles off the.
direct route between Reno and Elko
and the postal authorities express
the opinion that the pilot became con-
fused in his directions and has been
forced to land in some of the bar
rem wastes in that section of the
state.
Two airplanes arrived yesterday
morning in Reno from Sacramento.
The planes carry three enlisted men
and a radio officer in addition to their
pilots and they took up the search
as soon as the ships had been filled
with oil and gas.
Al Franks airplane piloted by
James Benton started at daylight yes
terday over the route east of Reno.
Benton reported shortly before noon
that he had covered the district
around Fallon without results.
Captain Carter of the Reno police
force, who was in Eureka Tuesday
said he had seen the plane about
noon. Postal authorities said the
plane would have to descend shortly
after that time to replenish its supply
of gasoline. 1t is believed possible
the missing ship has made a forced
landing within a few miles of Eure-
ka. The army planes that arrived in
Reno yesterday morning carried
equipment to set up field radio sta
ton, which was being installed yes
terday afternoon. The outfit was to
begin sending radio messages as soon
as equipped in hope the missing ship
would reply.
1t was stated at the Reno avia-
ton field that the army planes would
continue the search until the missing
ship Is located.
All stations along the Southern Pa
cfic and Western Pacific have been
notified to watch out for the flyer and
searching parties in automobiles have
been sent out from several cities be-
tween Reno and Elko.

with him were Governor Boyle, Sena-
tors Pittman and Henderson, and
others of the party. Cox was intro
duced from the rear platform of the

he had accepted the Democratic NOM

voters not to vote party ticket be-
cause their grandfathers had voted
tat ticket
Cox said the boys went to France
with assurance that there would be
no further wars and everyone should

just gotten started on the argument
read In metropolitan newspapers
lately wherein he points out a large

the cost of one battleship, when the
train started for Reno. where meet

Especial Correspondence

RENO, Nevada.-"As Maine goes,
so goes the country" used to be a
favorite newspaper slogan. Perhaps
it makes no great difference whether
we believe in signs and wonders"
but it certainly may be said that
Maine IL a wonder when it comes to
piling up an immense Republican ma
jority in this year of rebuke to au-
tocracy in the United States. Maine
is the first gun, always. and the noise
of her report last Monday sounded no
encouragement to Republicans of
Nevada.
1t has been resolved by leaders of
Republican thought in this State that
the present campaign shall be fought
out in perfectly open and above
board manner. In fact, there is moth
ing to conceal. There are. so far as
it is possible to learn, no sore spots"
to heal. To a man, candidates who
were defeated in the primary, have
congratulated and offered to help
their opponents to the utmost of their
ability. The case seems now to be
quite different with the Democrats,
particularly in the matter of their
candidate for Representative in Con-
gress.

A Democrat (or a man who had

respondent with what he said was
the inside" of the rather remarkable
boom for Walter E. Pratt during the
closing days of the primary cam
paign. This man declared that
friends of Dick" Stoddard, after dis
covering the duplicity of the so-called
machine" which had induced him to
make the run, attempted to put Pratt
over in retaliation. The time was en-
tirely too short. however. and holi-
days prevented much effective work
being done. He declared the entire
plan was one to create sympathy for
Congressman Charles r. Evans and
give the impression that he was en-
titled to great credit for "bucking the
machine"
The silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1909-1925, 1920-09-16

This informant pointed to the po-
litical article in the Reno Gazette oi
last Saturday. wherein it was said
among other things:
"Stoddard went to the outside
counties, and on his return to
Reno learned that hardly hand
had been turned in his behalf
here. while concerted movement
for Evans had been promoted. 1t
was too late TO do much.
THE machine Democrats realized,
continued the hard-luck story. "thai
their only hope of beating Arent7
was to make hero of Evans in hav-
ing to fight the office-holding bri-
gade. and then play up his campaign
talk about being the incumbent who
according to an old line of political
bunk. will be able to do better nexi

That's the story. for whatever it is
worth. 1t may at least be said that
il sounds as reasonable as other
stories which are told concerning the
undoubted detection in Democratic
ranks-at least In regard to the Con-
gressman imbroglio. Mr.. Evans is
as matter of fact, going awfully
strong in the matter of explaining to
voters that a new man never can dc
anything during his first term in
Congress. He neglects. apparently,
to call attention to the many other
men who have tried to explain" in
the same way ever since the tabled

BIG MISSISSIPPI
ROAD BOND ISSUE
|. BEATEN IN HOUSE
Attack on Measure by Repre-
sentative Stone Caused Its
Defeat-BiII Called for APP
preparation $25, 900, 900.

JACKSON. Miss. Feb. -. Cspll--A
mastery attack at the last moment by
Mr.. Stone, Of WASHINGTON. caused the
defeat Of the Pate bill. providing for
q 5,000, 900 bond issue for. the con-
struction OF system Of modern high
ways, which was the subject of an all
day debate in the house on Wednes-
day.
Friends Of the measure express little
regret over its defeat. for 1t had been
so badly emascuIated with amendments
as to render II practically worthless,
However. even in its mangled form,
the bill would have parsed but for the
speech by Mr.. Stone just prior TO the
roll call. When the member from
Washington concluded his remarks the
measure went down In defeat, 62 nays
81 ayes.
The first serious blow to the bill was
dealt when its friends, believing this
expediency necessary. inserted an
amendment providing that the meas
ure be referred 10 the people for rati-
fication or rejection at the November
election. Aside from the serious doubt
as to the legal right OF the leg1s s,aIIlo
to refer a proposed law to the people
without the formality of the referen"
dunn clause of the constitution being
invoked, this action was confession
of weakness, and was quickly taken
advantage Of by opponents of the bill
who poured in a ceseleSs flood OIL
amendments. and loaded II down 10 tne
point of utter usele ssness.
1t was not the so-called low pres.
sure" element in the house that caused
the defeat of the highway bill, Quite
to the contrary. a large number q
members who voted against 1t have al
ways been aligned with the liberal OF
progressive faction-the element O.
which Mr.. Stone Is one of the recognized
leaders.
