 There will be IS or 20 Republican votes on the other side of the river which may have bearing on the Re- publican Sheriff Nomination.

DEVELOPMENT STARTS
 y ON THE BLACK RANGE

George A. Heating, manager of the Black Range Mining company, was in Kingman yesterday afternoon and re- ported that the company had alrang- ed matters for the starting of work on the deep development of tine Black Range, using the Nellie shaft to reach into the big vein at a depth far below the 300 shaft on the parent property. The new work is to be carried out from the drift on the 800 level of the Nellie and will cut the big vein some distance west of the last drill hole that had cut an ore body 12 feet wide and carrying approximately $3O in value. It will take about 500 feet of work to get into the ofe. body, altho it is possible that big ore body will be encountered far toNthe west of the drill hole. The Nellie has the same potential vein as the Black Range, and drifting will be in the vein material all the way from the shaft.
 To get the best and quickest results from the new work, it is purposed to at once install an oil burning engine to operate big generator, which in turn will light the mine and operate turbine station pump. This pump is to have a capacity of 1000 gallons per minute and will take care of any eventuality. The Nellie shaft is to be unwatered and the pump set at the station as soon as it is humanly pos ,sible and then the work of going over to the Black Range and exploring that property from below the 500 level will be undertaken. The Black Range will undoubtedly furnish big volume of water, but the pump at the Nellie will have capacity sufficiently to take care of any emergency. The development of the Black Range in this way means a speedy insight into part of the mine that would take months of ex- pensive mining to reach, and the man. agement is to be commended for it's foresight in getting matters shaped up for this big campaign.

 the town, the Chief said in part:
 "The installation of hydrants has been delayed on account of making re- pairs and changes in the water mains. These changes are nearly completed and more hydrants will be installed immediately. As has been stated on several occasions, hydarnts are being located so that the longest line of hose necessary to reach any building in the business district will not exceed 400 feet and in the residence district, 600 feet".
 When all of the hydrants are in, there will be about 30 in town, which will give ample protection for every body. r
 While some of the fixtures and ma terials we have had to buy may seem to be more expensive than is needed, everything we have will meet the highest test of the underwriters and all of it will materially aid in lower- ing the fire insurance rate. Chief Gildow has had this in mind in every thing he has done and in everything he has bought for the department. The main idea of a fire department is the preventing of fires but the duty to the community is to lower the in- surance, so that the savings in in surance will help pay the fire taxes, which are rather high at present But one more year of high taxes and the fire department will be out of debt and then the taxes will be ma terially reduced.
 The firemen are giving their time as we'll as paying their taxes, and the Chief is to be congratulated on what he and his men have been able to do in the short year the fire de- partment has been in existence.
 The Chief has turned over to the writer some statistics that may prove of interest to the taxpayers:
 Available figures show that 90Sc of the fires in the United States dur ing the past year, were due to care lessness and were preventable. These fires incur a yearly loss of almost 10000 lives and $5OO,00O, ,0OO proper ty loss. With the approach of the winter season and the setting up of heating stoves, it would be time and money we'll invested to carefully in- ,spect and repair chimneys and flues. All such precautions tend to reduce the community fire hazard and has direct bearing on your fire insurance"
 The new siren has arrived and has been installed on the roof of the Cen tral Commercial Company's water. tower. This is about the highest place in town and there should be no mistakes in the. signals. This siren is electricallysdriven and will be con trolled from the telephone office. All reports of fire should be sent in to the telephone office and not to the firehouse. When reporting fire, give the location as near and as complete as possible and if the signal is known, give it also. s.,.

The Cole-Ryan syndicate has at last reached out for the Comstock proper ties and it is expected that one of the greatest development campaigns of the century will be undertaken for the ex- ,ploration of the lower levels of all tne old Virginia City properties and far beyond the confines of the old mines. "A corporation with a capitalization of 100000 $1O shares has been formed to take over all the interests f& and start immediate exploitation of the properties. The interests comprise the Standard Oil people, as we'll as the big, copper crowd, which is guaran- tee that sufficient finances to cover any undertaking is forthcoming.
 During the past several years the . Comstock mines have been under a leasing system and it is said that good ore bodies have been opened on the 200 level and that drilling operations were carried into territory hereto fore regarded as barren with the result that big bodies of mill ore, were un- covered. The best of these ore bodies was found on the 2200 level, and ', close to the point where the water is kept in check. A large amount. of the ore has gone to mill, and the, new process for the extraction of values from the ores of the property is said to be very satisfactory. ,"tn@ }17Gf
 Would it not be great to have this old lode come back and repeat its : great performance of better than $200, 100000 in gold and silver and yet this is possible. The fact that the mines were worked under a great dis advantage in the early days, and that these disadvantages may be obviated is one of the reasons why it is possi- ble to bring the property back to high productivity. Of course, in those days timbers were not so costly as today, but different mining methods may be employed that will greatly reduce the necessity fer timbers. The lower lev els of the mine were wonderfully hot and this condition may be obviated by the introduction of new and better ventilation methods. Power may be cheapened largely and other things entering into the mining of the Com stock may be cut materially over old days.
