HIGH GRADE IS
ENCOUNTERED
At CALIFORNIA

The New California Tonopah mine
gives promise of shortly developing
into one of the greatest producers
of this district. So successful has
been the exploratory work under the
direction of Frank Stall, president
and general manager, that this min
eral estate promises to prove an i'm
portant factor in extending the life
of Tonopah.
Long recognized as a property Of
merit. but remaining i'm idlencss by
reason of having become entangled
in litigation through the d6funct
State Bank, it remained for Mr.. Stall
to unravel the tangIe and proceed
with development on broad lines, un-
til today he can lay claim to hay
ing a mine of wonderful possibilities,
and one which will have to be reck-
.oned with when production for this
great silver camp is computed dur
ing future years.
Large orebodies are being uncov-
cred in the various workings of this
mine, and announcement has just
been made by Manager Stall that a
&-foot vein of ore has just been un-
covered between the 300 and 400
levels of the New California mine
proper which carries values of $40
a ton on the average A shipment
of 100 tons is now being taken from
Ith,s 3-foot vein, as well as a vein
from the 500 level
} One leaser on the New California
viii be shipping soon, and two leas-
Iers on jim Butler ground that is
iheId under lease by the New Cali
fornia Touop1r company have ship
ped rs tons that will return values
of 49, a ton.
From the raise in the Butler work
Iings on the zoo level, three feet OF
ore was encountered yesterday that
assays $50 a ton On Thursday a
raise was started from the 600 leveI
on the Wandering Boy and a high
grade streak of ore is being follow
ed which runs $40 ton.
On the New California lOOO-foot
level a crosscut is being driven and
lit is expected to intersect the vein
within from 40 to so feet. This
vein shows good ore in winze from
1.-The 4OO-foot to the 7OO-foot level anC
in the event the values are found
rersistent down to the lOOO-foo
point. then the possibilities for
tremendous production from thl'
ground appear to be unlimited.
Manager Stall stated today tina
within month or six weeks thu
New California Tonopah Mining
company would be shipping a heav!
tonnage of ore, and an effort vii
be made to increase the output a
development is carried forward an
new orebodies are opened.

TOWN - =
HELpS6J ]
TAKING CITY INTO COUNTRY
England Putting Into Effect Scheme
Which Seems to Be Along Lines
Of Common Sense.

In England. instead of developing
suburban communities, they are trying
the scheme of taking the city into the
country, to the benefit of the city and
doing no harm to the country. Every
new development in England will be
practically a garden city, with plenty
of oren spaces. recreation grounds,
golf courses. well-placed factories and
Industrial sections. and healthful resi-
dental quarters. The worker will
have his patch of ground. and the
usual smoke and CRIME of Industrial
communities will be nonexistent.
Town-panning schemes, many of
them conceived before the new idea
was generally adopted, were naturally
much delayed by preoccupation during
the years Of war with more urgent
matters and since the war by hous-
ing scheme which occupied the full at
tention of the technical staffs of the
local authorit es. For the best results
town planning should have preceded
housing. Owing to the extreme urgency
ward first.
In all OulIulng ScheIHeS nnO pro
posals for Improvement there is, occa-
sionally, injury done to owners Of
property by the invasion Of rights they
have enjoyed for many years. Com
pensation in such cases Is payable to
the injured owner. No claim can be
made, however. for injury to buildings
erected, or improvements made subse-
quent to the scheduling of the area for
town planning. And the further i'm
portant provision is made: That au-
thorities can claim one-half of the In
crease In value of property consequent
upon the town-planning scheme. The
government now realizes the CONNER
cial value Of town planning and has
no intention of creating private for
tune by its intervention.

members present could elect i
there were a quorum present
Thursday evening number o
the newly appointed officers ten
dered their bonds for acceptance
Among the bonds so rendered was
that of j. w. B. Smith, who claimed
to be city attorney elect The
mayor ruled that there bad not
been a valid appointment of a city
attorney. Regardless of this ruling
by the mayor, and without any
appeal from the ruling, a cali WIS
made for the question. Before the
vote was taken the mayor called
w. A. Roberts, the mayor pro tenn,
to the chair. Mr. Moscript then
made very forceful and convinc-
ing speech against the irregularity
of the anamolous proceeding. He
declared that he thought the ap-
pointment was invalid and irregu-
lar No one who heard the speech |
of Mr.. Moscript could entertain a
doubt of his absolute sincerity,
fair mindedness and desire to see
the business of the city conducted
in a lawful manner A yea and
nay vote was then taken, in which
Councilmen McClelland, Kaufman
and Fuller voted against accepting
the bonds, and Councilman Han
cock, McColl, Florine, Roberts,
Underhill and Lynn voted in favor
of accepting the bonds. Mr.. School
kopf was not present and did not
vote, he having sent in a written
resignation because of the fact that
he had moved into another ward
from the one which he had been
appointed to represent.
Attorney COLON then got up
and stated that in view of the fact
that at the last previous meeting
his opinion had been voluntarily
asked in the matter, he desired to
again state his opinion in the
matter and give the reasons and
authority on which his opinion
was based. At this point Mr..
Smith interrupted and stated that
as city attorney he considered i,
his duty, as the official legal nd.
wiser of the city council. to give
the reasons for advising the council
that the election had been legal
He then read brief which he had
prepared, citing various authori-
ties. He then requested that At

pieces. If that is true. whose fault
is it? Why do we have city
attorney? II it is not his business
to advise the council that certain
things are not done legally, why
have such an officer? The legis-
lature has laid down certain posi-
tive laws for the guidance of city
government. The supreme court
has made decisions interpreting
those laws. 1t is the duty Of all
city governments to respect and
follow the directions of those laws.
When the council of city employs
an attorney rs the official attorney
for that city, that council has the
right TO expect that such a city
attorney will advise them when an
action by the council is not within
the specific directions laid down
by the Legislative law.
1t is not right to just let things
slide. No one desires to see any
act of our city government cost the
city needless expense Just because
the city council was not advised in
the matter or because it was not
advised correctly. Everyone is
liable to make mistakes. but no
one is excusable for making a
mistake when his lack of diligence
is responsible for the mistake.

to be unfair in anything, especially

opinion. He cited the cases OF

Harris VS.. People, 10 Pacific 699,
and section 9O36 of the 1921 Com
piled Statutes of Colorado. Sec
ton 9O36 of the 1921 Compiled
Statutes is exactly the same as
section 1894 of the 1912 edition of
Mills Annotated Statutes of Colo
RADIO, as quoted above.
Attorney Regennitter did not
precisely express his opinion as to
whether or not he thought the
election had been valid. He said
that he had not gone into the
matter thoroughly.
Aside from the appointment OF
the city attorney. another question
was indirectly raised. Which paper
was properly appointed official
for the city for 1921?
The Gazette received four votes
and Doboins one on the ballots
prior to The ballot on which the
received six votes
and the Gazette three, and on
which the mayor announced that
The Siftings News was appointed.
If Mr.. Smith opinion is correct
.hen it is conceded that the Ga
zette was properly appointed, and
that paper should have been de-
slared the official newspaper for
the city and should be given the
,ity's printing.
Mr.. Collom then raised the point
that at a prior time there had been
an appointment made which did
not meet the requirements which
Mr.. Smith claimed were legal. Mr..
Smith expressed a doubt as to the
correctness of Mr.. Collom's state
ment. Mr.. COLON asked the city
clerk to get the records of last year
(l920) and look up the appoint
ments. Mr.. Leach looked the mat.
ter up and read the record, which
stated that the Gazette had re-
ceived four votes and the Siftings
News three votes. There were
eight councilmen present. but one
did not vote, SO that neither paper
received a majority vote of the
members present, and the highest
vote lacked two of having the mum.

The question then is. was any
ordinance which was passed during

as that were raised the whole cit,
