Honeymoon TraiI--Ramona

With an augmentation of princi-
pals and several new faces in the
chorus at the Ramona theater last
night, Brandon's comedians and the
popular Pioneer girls scored a dis
tinct hit in strikingly up to the
minute" presentation of THE Hon.
eymoon Trail a lively farce comedy
set to music. This already large md
popular organization has been aug
mented by the addition OF some of
the best known and most talented
players that have ever been seen on
any Phoenix stage, namely Jack Mil
Ter and Carolina Brunson. Mr. Mil
Ter is now so we'll and fayora bly
known to the playgoing public of not
only Phoenix, but the entire west,
that his name alone in conjunction
with any cast of players is enough to
insure the success of the play and
the interest of the audience. Caro-
lima Brunson. famous blackface come
dian, late of the Gus Hill Minstrels, is
another well known comedian of un-
usual ability and a very valuable ad-
dition to the Brandon company.
These inimItable comedians, to-
gether with Bob Greer, already rec
ognized as dynapaD of comedy at
all times, and Frank Lawler and
Arthur jackson, and the beauty
chorus of Pioneer girls, combine to
make one of the very best musical
attractions that have ever been Of
fered anywhere at popular prices.
And in many respects the company
as it now stands rivals the average
road show that travels west during
the regular season.
No expense will be spared by the
management to make the Ramona
and the popular company everything
that is desired for the summer
months in the way of better amuse-
ments. 1.-THE Honeymoon Trail" will
be repeated tomorrow night. Tonight
rs contest night at the Ramona and a
big double show will be the offering

w zen to do Your
Assessment Work

1ae following letter from Senator
Pitt an will be Of interest to the
owl IS of mining claims at this time:
am receiving so many letters
seel g information with regard to
the anual assessment work law that
l as the privilege OF your columns
for &c purpose OF giving this inform
atior to the public.
Urder existing law, assessment
work on mining claims for the year
1920 must be performed prior TO July
LIST, 1921
If new legislation is not obtained
at this session of Congress the annual
assessment work of 1921 will have to
be done in 1921, and prior to January
/, 1922
The annual work done in 1921 for
the year 1920 will not serve as assess
ment work for the year 1921.
Now as to the pending legislation:
two bills have been introduced in the
Senate. The first bill was introduced
by me and has been favorably report
ed by the Committee on Mines and
Mining. 1t provides that the annual
assessment year shall begin on the
lst day OF July each year, instead of
on the lst day of January In other
iepAn4rS lxou suozn!o 10 Supo9m
words, it makes permanent the law
that was passed for 1920. This bill
will probably become law. However,
it will not affect assessment work re-
quired for the year 1920. 1t will mean,
however, that the claim owner will
have until July 1922, in which to
perform assessment work.
There is another bill now before the
Committee on Mines and Mining
providing for the extension of one
years time in which to perform the
assessment work for 1920 AT a re-
cent meeting, the Committee on
Mines and Mining reported adversely
OH this bill. The committee will, how
ever, give reconsideration 10 the oil
1t its next meeting at my request,
may obtain enough votes in the COM
aiittoe % have the decision reversed
and have the bill favorably reported
[ am very doubtful, however, whether
the bill will be able to pass the Sen
ate and the House before July 1st.
therefore recommend that all claim
owners do their assessment work for
1920 prior to July l, 1921. Very truly
yours,
KEY PITTMAN.

RITA D. MILLAR IS
MINERAL CO. RECORDER

Holding that failure to allege that
the contestant is a qualified elector
was fatal, the supreme court Saturday
reversed the district court judgment
declaring Mrs. Agnes B. Crownover
the duly elected recorder and ex-
officio auditor of Mineral county and
holds that Mrs, Rita D, Millar is
entitled to the Office.
This case has been pending in the
Supreme Court for more than six
months and during the greater part OF
this time Mrs. Millar has resided in
Yerington. She will leave for Haw-
thorne to assume her duties at the end
of the present week.
Mrs. Milar was elected at the No
vember election by three votes on
the face of returns made by the vari-
Gus precinct boards OF Mineral
county. Mrs. Crownover instituted
a contest and the district judge, afte'
the recount, gave her a certificate O.
election finding that 800 legal votes
had been cast in her favor and 304 for
Mrs. Millar. From this judgment
Mrs. Mllar appealed. A demurrer
to the statement of the contestant
Mrs Crownover, was interposed and
the supreme court holds that il
should have been upheld. 1t Is
pointed out that the contest was
brought under the provisions of Sec
tions 6S and 20 of the 1917 law pro-
viding that such proceedings may be
instituted by "any elector'' Accord
ing to the unanimous opinion written
by Justice Ducker, at is nowhere
alleged that the contestant Mrs
Crownover) Is qualified eleetor OF
Mineral county, in conformity with
the requirement in Section 70; and
the failure to allege this statutory
essential is, under the we'll settled
principles of law, fatal to the juris-
diction of the court.

Development at
Lewis Coal Mine
(From the Yerington Times)

NfIoHl the erington lines
On Sunday May Sth, Frank Lam
oerson and wife, Mrs. Dr. Foster, \.
w. Willis and Mr.. Voight made an
automobile trip to the Coal VALLEY
mines to note such progress as wa
being made by Harry Lewis, in sink
ing on his coal vein and incidentally to
give Mr.. Voight an opportunity to
compare this basin" with some OF
the present producing coal and oil
basins in Wyoming.
Mr.. Voight, who had been in this
section in charge of a crew of G. L. O
surveyors, had heard frequent state
ments regarding the very marked
similarity between the oil andcoal
lands of this section and those o.
Wyoming, and having surveyed and
plated the Wyoming fields for entry
some years ago, felt qualified to judge
Mr.. Voight was in no way person
ally interested and merely took this
trip on Sunday to satisfy his curiosity
On reaching the basin he very soor
saw the same sandstone and shales
and other formation as he had plated
in Wyoming, and after reaching the
the pit being sunk on the coal vein
identified the surface Ignite of some
what shalely structure as exactly
similar to the Wyoming deposits. On
going down the incline with Mr. Lewis
the party saw that at a point about
800 feet below the surface the foot
wall of the vein had assumed the true
dip of the formation and the face show.
ed about five feet of clean, blocky
coal, some of which was charred with
the mine lamp, and gave pronounced
paraffine odor. Coming to the surface
Mr. Voight, from high point, looked
over the "dome" arrangement of the
basin, and said it bore the most re
markable similarity to one of the best
producing basins he had surveyed il
Wyoming, as above stated.
Our latest information is fiat the
coal is now bituminous and of a good
commercial character, and Mr.. Levi
is expecting to install hoist, buile
bins and mine for the market in the
very near future.
