NAVAL AUTHORITIES EXHIBIT
AN ARBITRARY ATTITUDE

Sheriff C. M. Way and the Mare
Island, Calf. naval authorities are
engaged in contention that ap-
proaches the status Of q clash be-
tween the civil and the military. II
has been Mr.. Ways custom in times
past to hunt diligently for deserters
from the navy and the marine corps,
always responding with a1acrity to
advices from the authorities. But he
marvels at the apparent inconsist-
ency and red tape of the Mare Island
commandant and should he become
apathetic in the future as to the
whereabouts of deserters he may be
pardoned by fair minded people.
Not long ago sherin Way arrested
one Gorden c. Shipley In this city
upon the instructions OF the Mare
Island authorities. He delivered his
prisoner in Reno after long and ard
uous unwinding of red tape and later
arrested A. J. Spencer for the same
offense as Spencer was at work In
local restaurant. The Mare Island
ordered Mr.. Way to de-
liver Spencer at Mare Island when
he would be paid $50 as the sum to-
tai of his compensation inclusive of
travel costs Now any one knows
that a peace officer here cannot take
q prisoner to the coast and return to
his home for $50 or anything like It
and peace officer may be excused
should he lose his enthusiasm over
the arrests of recalcitrant ex-navy
or marine corps enlisted men.
Neither has the government ever
recompensed the county authorities
for meals furnished military prison
ers lodged In the county Jail here. 1t
apparently falling to the lot of the
Churchill county taxpayers to foot
the board bills of wandering desert
ers who happen to fix upon this
county as hiding out place.
Sheriff Way proposes to bring
these matters to the attention of the
secretary OF the navy whom he Is
certain will issue new orders to the
Mare Island commandant calculated
to carry some degree of fairness.

Broken Hills District

work has amplified the earlier
prophesies regarding the probable
richness of the lodges exposed on top
ground here and there which show
unmista keably the general trend of
the underlying ore bodies. Assays
obtained show silver running from
around $40 to 1925 per ton. One
shaft has been sunk to a depth of 36
feet and a winze of 15 feet has been
established therein. Within this 15
feet the ore body widened from IA
inches to about four feet, unfolding
IN a manner that has caused elation
among those who own the property.
A short distance to the southwest of
this shaft an incline has been sunk
to depth of IS feet from which a
drift is being run that is aimed to
connect up with three predetermined
ore lodges. The showings encount-
cred up to the present time on the
Silver Trailer group has moved the
directors of the company to the de-
cision to forego stock sales and de-
velop the property from the daily ore
production which is now fairly with
In reach.
1t is now planned to move this ore
to the Breuner mill Is miles to the
east of Broken Hills where the values
will be recovered. This mill has a
daily capacity of 40 tons and it Is es-
timated that the transportation and
handling charges may be confined to
about 81 per ton. In the meantime

the mill site is served by pipe line.
costing $4,000 which brings In a
good part of the flow of Campbell
creek 10 miles away.
The Silver Trailer's ore bodies lie
quite plainly In the center OF the
Broken Hills district and represent
the central zone of enrichment from
which run lateral veins In many di-
rections, several of which may be
traced for great distances. This en-
richment Is a jumbled mass, vol
canic disturbances of past ages hav-
ing played a no inconsiderable part
in structure formations, while eros
ion represents a natural benefaction,
much OF the mining incident on re-
claiming the ore values having al
Grady been done by Nature.
Broken Hills. according to Mining
Engineer C. G. Keeting, of Kansas
City, Mo-, now In charge Of mine and
mill operations at Breuner, should
be called the Catacombs Mines OF
Nevada. for man with all of the in
genuity that gave rise to the term
could never equal Natures results
there. 1t is In fact a great reposi-
tory that promises to keep many
workers busy for a great length OF
time as they uncover and remove
the precious metals now known TO
have been cached by the caprice of
forces that combined TO create what
we call a phenomenon because We do
not understand them.
Mr.. Keeting had been called upon
for an experts opinion by the own
ers of the Silver Trailer group and
only this week submitted his opinion.

SUGAR BEET GROWING HERE
Is DECIDED UPON BY FARMERS

The farmers Of the Newlands pro-
ject appear to be unit in the plan to
maintain the Fallon factory through
out future years by contributing
their parts to profitable campaigns.
We all know that beet tonnage Ia the
vital prerequisite to this happy con-
dition and declarations uniformly
carry affirmation Of intent TO plant
every acre possible to the beet crop
next year.
Labor has been promised by those
behind the move to revive the fac
tory; finance has been assured; the
motor truck and gradually improving
roads very largely solve the trans
portation problems incident to the
movement of the beet tonnage and
there seems to be nothing standing
in the way OF the future conduct of
the Fallon factory.

New Phenomenon
AtSdllwater We'll
Wheeler Oh Syndicate Develops 9
Continuous Flow Of Boiling

The Wheeler OIL syndicate's drill
ing operations ut the Saltwater we'll
were temporarily halted Saturday
when at Z depth Of between 500 and
$50 feet an artesian flow of hot wa
ter was encountered which rose
steamins to q height of more than
100 feet. Different from the geyser
of few weeks ago the now was cou-
stant until shut OF, an expedient
adopted Sunday by Driller Freeman
to allow OF further drilling.
Many people In the Saltwater
neighborhood visited the spouting
we'll and watched the drilling crew
take samples of the hot water which
showed unmistakeable signs OF oil.
Oil had coated the wells dis
charge Of cold water for several
days In advance Of Saturday.
People who have watched the
progress of the Wheeler Oil Syndi-
Gates drilling at saltwater marvel
at the wonders that have been en-
countered at different depths. Not
alone has hot water come from sew
eral stratas but silver and gold were
found at the 140-foot level. This
pay streak was found above the first
now of hot water and IL Is asserted
that q vein OF sulphide ore was PEN
etrated that IL from four to five feet
In thickness. Assayer Tom Kenyon
made determinations of values of the
samples released by the drill and
found that they contained 7.29
ounces OF silver and $1.2O In gold, a
total Of $8.49. Mr.. Kenyon made
this assay on July 9Th and on three
days later the drill released a small
scepage Of oil, which was followed by
the vast and constant flow OF hot wa
ter from the stratum reached Satur-
day.
1t must seem that the Wheeler
Oil Syndicate Is at work exploring a
wonderland that has never been un-
derstood yet gives promise Of yield
ing both metal and oil in paying
quantities.

law would be strictly enforced and
that ten sagehens may be shot each

When the Nevada legislature
fixed the boundary line separating
Churchill and Nye counties, this
county was deprived of the territory
embraced In the Broken Hills min
ing district where mining experts
say there is treasure greater In value
than Rockefeller's fortune. Count
ing an area of 36 square miles or
thereabouts the principal properties
of the district lie in northern Nye
county just south of the imaginary
line between the two subdivisions
and there is no question that
Churchill county has illogically been
deprived of tax values that will
mount into an almost incredible sum
as time goes along.
Just a month ago there was moth
ing In sight in Broken Hills save the
varying topography that gave the
district its name and the outcrop-
pings of porphry dykes that stand
out in strange juxtaposition to tale
and altered andesite lodges, mute
sentinels standing guard over
treasure that may even exceed In ex-
tent that given the world by the
comstock. Today Broken Hills has
an identity; Its name carries a due
Significance to the two hundred or
more people who reside and work
there and the method that has char
acterized the activities of every per-
son who has fixed upon the states
newest mining camp as place of
residence Is evident to the most
cursory observer. Broken Hills peo-
pie believe In Broken Hills; they are
there to work and create wealth and
they are toiling with zeal and
fixedness of purpose that form aug
uries for early and definite accom-
plishment.
The first impression of the un-
initiated when he scans the districts
heart from any of the many vantage
points is that he stands In the midst
of a vast treasure troye and awe
succeeds curiosity and wonderment
has a place In the mental process
that a mineral showing SO vast and
plain to sight, with its numerous
concomitants, lay so long INDICATED
as Nevada's army of prospectors
scurried and delved.
The lodges of the Broken Hills
district were made TO order for mans
convenience. Nature obligingly
pushed them up through the under
ground formations and the erosion.
OF past ages kept them free of imped-
imenti. They are there from the
grass roots down as the term goes
and II is not improbable that much OF
the yalue-carrying ores will be re-
moved in the near future by the use
of steam shovels. The usual pre-
cipitous inclines of mining camps are
absent. the country rolls away to the
north from the original Stratford
and Arthur locations to the intermin-
able violet of the surrounding noun
tains and. experts say that silver val
ues may be had in paying volume
from an area of nearly five town
ships.
