Returns From National Mine

On returning from a visit at the
Buckskin Mining Company, County
Commissioner w. J. Bell, accom-
panied by his son, F. Bell, stated
that the mill installed by the Cali
fornia Gold Mines Company, was
working sixteen hours a day, and
the only reason that it was not run
ming twenty-four hours day was
that there was not enough water
to keep it in operation the full
length of time.
The California Gold Mines Com
pany is operating the Buckskin Mines
at the present time, and from all
indications, things are favorable for
further satisfactory development of
the property.

TARIFF CONGRESS
SUCCEssF Ill EVENT
States Delegates Report Good Prog
ress in Move to Protect the
West by Formation of a
Tariff Association

Great good for western industry
was accomplished during tn ses-
sions of the tariff congress held re-
Gently in Denver, according to word
received from Nevada delegates by
j. Sheehan of this city, state chair
man of the Western Tariff Asocia-
tion. Nevada delegates who attend
ed the convention, during which the
actual formation of the Western
Tariff Association was completed,
were J. M. Lockhard of Ely, former
Governor E. d. Boyle of Reno, E.
c. Riddell, farm bureau executive
of Elko, and Vernon Metcalf of the
Nevada Land and Livestock Asso-
citation.
Reporting to Senator Sheehan.
Mr.. Lockhart states it was no child's
play to bring the work to a success
full conclusion, as there were many
interested in anything but their own
matters, but he feels that it closed
with as sincere and whole-hearted
harmony as could be expected, and
the organization was completed
upon a unanimous vote.
Hagenbarth was elected president,
p. j. Quealy, vice president, and a
Mr.. Mitchell, a banker of Denver,
treasurer.
Mr.. Lockhart states that there is
little doubt of the association doing
great work for the west, as the
Southern Tariff Association has done
great work for the south. The next
meeting will probably be in Salt
Lake City in February.

WOOL MARKE TING
LOOKING BETTER
Cattle Also Showing Stronger Mar.
ket Trend, Which With Excel.
lent Lamb Sales Indicates
Prosperity Hereabouts

What may perhaps be considered
the best piece of news which has
broken" in Winnemucca for a long
time was secured in an interview
today with Senator ]. Sheehan of
the First National bank. 1t is in
regard to the wool market, a sub
ject which has more than once been
referred to in bitter Disappointment
by those whose prosperity depends
wholly or in part to favorable wool
conditions, and in this section there
are many such.
Recent information received, said
Senator Sheehan, is that there is at
the present time some movements in
the wool market, but none to speak
OF IN western woods. The present
market wool price is around $1.15 a
pound, secured basis, which would
mean approximately 3s cents in the
grease. This in itself is welcome
indication, but when the statement
is amplified by another statement
that bankers of this and other west
ern states are positively encourag-
ing wool growers to hold their wool
for higher prices it indicates that
market conditions are even better
than shown by prices now offered.
The tendency on the part of nearly
l. a.
hold their wool, according to our
informant, also indicating future
market strength.
One reason for the holding off of
wool sales is because such sales at
the present time would result in
certain depression in lamb values.
which are based to a large extent
upon the wool value of the lambs
SO purchased, and because the lamb
market at the present time is so
entirely satisfactory there is no de-
sire to do anything which might
weaken it.
Senator Sheehan gives it as his
opinion that 80 days will show
maik ked Improvement IN the wool
market, and even if not more than
the present 38 cent price is realized
the growers will be ahead because
Of the present higher price of lambs.
At the present time inquiries
from cattle buyers are numerous.
but actual contracting has not vet
commenced. The best thing that
can be said about the cattle market.
according to the senator, is that the
feeling" is better. There is a pos
sibility that a large number of cattle
may be shipped to eastern markets
but even if this does not materialize
at once the raisers will have nothing
to worry about because they have
plenty of feed to carry them for
another month and banks are in
excellent condition to handle their
financial needs where conditions
warrant. Decision as to whether or
not to sell at prevailing cattle prices
is being LETT With the individual
growers.
Altogether the general financial
and livestock conditions of northern
Nevada show marked Improvement
and lead to the opinion that better
conditions may well be expected
within the near future.

ODDIE PLEASED
WITH SILVER CONFERENCE

Hon. Tasker L. Oddie, United
States senator from Nevada, was a
visitor in Winnemucca last week,
coming here for the purpose of ad-
dressing delegates to the Nevada
Federation of Women's Clubs con-
vention, Mrs. Oddie accompanying
him.
Aside from his convention speech
Senator Oddie stated that he is well
pleased with the results of the re-
cent meeting Of silver producers
and that it is his opinion, with the
organization now functioning, favor
able results may be expected. There
have been no developments of i'm
portance in the silver situation, how
ever, since the troubles of that in
dustry were thoroughly aired at the
time of the silver convention re-
Gently held in Reno.
Senator Oddie is at the present
time devoting his energies to bring
ing order out of chaos in the United
States veterans bureau. On this
senatorial committee with himself
are Senators Reed of Pennsylvania
and Walsh of Massachusetts,. Ap-
parently things have not been NOV
ing smoothly with this soldier relief
organization and although the inves-
tlgating appropriation was made
very small the difficulty has been
surmounted by the appointment of
General Ryan to head corp of 500
attorneys and physicians who are
acting without salary, and in this
way first-hand information is being
gathered so that intelligent recon-
mendations may be made for the
betterment of the bureau after reg
ular hearings are held in Washing
ton this month.
In the veterans bureau investiga-
ton, however, Senator Oddie has
taken a personal hand and in one
day, through the vigorous use of
telegraph wires, Strengthened out
bad situations at the Livermore and
San Fernando tuberculosis hospitals.
lie Is now en- route to southern Cali
fornia and Arizona for further con-
ferences and expects to return to

Prosperity in 1924
Is Russia's View

Moscow. Dec. /. a. r. by MaiD--
Both the Russian people and the
Russian Government hope to enter
the year 1924 with less strain
on their purses than during the
closing year. High costs of opera
~tion in both government and
private industries left many deficits
at the end of this year. despite high
prices. The government is trying TO
introduce economy in all departments,
and by curtailing credits to mer-
chants and even to its own trusts,
to force down prices all around.
Russia, for all practical purposes,
went on a gold basis late in 1923.
All prices in the Moscow and other
metropolitan stores are now marked
in gold rubles. The year 1924 may
see the total disappearance of the
unSuaranteed paper money. While
this strenuous campaign to secure q
stable currency was proceeding, the
sudden transformation to gold rate
did away with bargains in Russia.
The result was that in December
prices for commodities other than
foodstuffs were from four to five
times the pre-war level.
The government shows some signs
of making further economic conces-
sions to private capital, during tho
coming year in order to secure
cheaper production. 1t also hopes to
give impetus TO initiative by lifting
the limit on salaries of state en-
ployes. Some of the best Of these
men We're leaving the government
service and going into private busi-
ness because the limit with the State
was $50 or $40 a month.

ENGLAND GRABS the SOUTH
DOLE

Possibly there is nothing down in
the Antarctic regions that Uncle
Sam needs. If so England will not be
in position to exact the toll as she is
doing in the matter of rubber from
her territories. On that she has been
so exacting that those IN need of the
supply are investigating rubber pos
sibilities in several parts Of the
world. No one seems TO know what
minerals or other resources may be
found about this pole though it is gen.
orally understood that those who
might have the work of developing
them in that forbidding part of the
world would lead dour existence.
The Norwegian, Amundsen, dis
covered the South Pole but England
has made the discovery of most of
the adjacent parts now known to the
world. Norway is not likely to OBJ
ject because England has proclaimed
her claim to that portion Of the earth.
