THE DISPATCH.
Published every Friday evening.
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER SO, 1904.
THE IRRIGATION DITCH.
All public lands along the lines of
the main lateral canals have been
temporarily withdrawn from all forms
of entry, and the reason assigned for
this Is to prevent the starting of
saloons along the route of the ditch.
Homesteaders, who have located within
the withdrawn area, cannot amend
their filings to correspond with the
sub-divisions until such lands are
Restored to homestead entry, which
will probaoly be next January or Feb
ruary. The Land Office is not sending
notice to such homesteaders.
\Ve believe that several entrymen
amended their filings this week, at
Fallon, before Mr. Holgate, Assistant
Examiner, and that that gentleman
will remain there until Sunday next
to accommodate those who do not
desire to go to Carson City.
THE WORLD'S PEACE:
President Roosevelt has broken
out in a fresh place. Following in the
footsteps of the Czar, he has announced
his intention to the Inter-Parliamentary
Union that, at an early date, he would
invite the nations of the world to send
delegations to a second Peace Con
ference. This step is understood to
be supplemental to that of the con
ference at The Hague, and is regarded
as a historic advance toward the ad
justment of international difficulties
through the medium of arbitration.
It is Inferred, from his address, thsi
he will not await the conclusion of
peace between japan and Russia but
that, after ascertaining, through the
Department of State, the opinion of
the world's Powers, he will issue his
formal call for the Conference, which
probably will be early in the coming
year, it is a significant fact that both
Russia and japan, now at one another's
throats, are both signatories to The
Hague Peace Convention.
JOURNAL FOAM.
Bryan must have felt rather un
comfortable Monday morning when he
read the Journal's sensational, bom
lastic report of his Reno debut.
Save me from my friends!" he pro
bably exclaimed. •• Amidst the boom
ing of guns!"—“through the (lash
lights of bonfires ! "—" men and women
made a frantic effort to hear—the
greatest orator of the world to-day!
••a storm of applause shook the build
ing and the great mars of humanity
that occupied it!" Then came the
speech, and "the mountain labored
and gave forth a mouse ! ” In private
life, Bryan is a man of Irreproachable J
character and justly respected by all!
who know him, but in politics he is a
humbug. The oxygen of his life is
the hysterical applause of the few,
while sober people ask: "What has
he done ? ” and faintly remember that,
with a once popular cause behind him,
a lucky phrase dragged Bryan from
ob:curity: "Shall we press this crown j
of thorns on the brow of labor," or
something like that, and that notable
speech placed his feet not on the
ladder but on the treadmill of fame.
Anyhow, it is not clever men who are
needed to-day in public life. Tney are
plentiful enough. It Is honest men.

Has Returned Home.
Back Again to the Old Den after
a Cloee Shave.
Joe Jackson—everybody knows Joe :
It Isn’t necessary to say of The Dis
patch Office—has come home again ;
and everybody is shaking him by the
hand and slapping him on the shoulder.
In a vain effort to show their genuine
and hearty pleasure to see him back
amongst them again until he bids fair
to be sent back to the surgical ward.
About two months ago, Joe was
seized with a severe attack of typhoid
pneumonia, but, at the time, thought
It some passing ailment, and struggled
along plucklly In harness until he
finally broke down. He was taken to
the German Hospital In San Francisco,
where it was discovered the disease
had already reached an acute stage.
For three weeks, he lay between life
and death, but with the aid of a
naturally good constitution and the best
medical skill available, he luckily
pulled through. When he was first
allowed out of the ward for an airing,
he weighed only 100 pounds.
After leaving the hospital, he took a
trip to Concord, Cal., to visit his aunt,
and in 5 days he gained 10 pounds.
He then tried the mild and salubrious
air of the Oakland district, where he
visited Allan Wickland, and had a real
good time. The many friends of Allan
will be glad to learn that this gentle
man has secured a good position with
the S. P. Co. at that place.
Joe arrived here Thursday morning,
turns the scale at 140 pounds, and,
although weak, looks hale and hearty ;
and if the wishes of his many friends
count for anything, he Is In less danger
of a relapse than of a long and useful
career.
Home from Germany.
Chas. Burcliardt. the popular ton
sorlal artist, of this town, has returned
from a pleasure trip through Germany
and other points of Interest, and reports
a splendid time. He has been absent
since May, and during that time he
has come to the conclusion that the
little girls 'tother side the pond are the
best after all. He arrived alone, but
Miss Allright may arrive later. Chas.
is feeling and looking fine, and has
been much benefltted by the trip.
Back from Goldfield.
Theo. Wetmore returned yesterday
from Goldfield, where he spent sever; I
weeks on the lookout for a business
location. Mr. Wetmore says that
good business locations are held at
prohibitory prices to any but the man
who is overburdened with money. He
brought with him samples of shipping
ore from the different mines, and is
enthusiastic over the promising future
of the camp. He expects to return to
Goldfield and engage in business. If his
plans do not miscarry.
Bob Cozzens lost 18 chickens from
his roost, last week, at Olinghouse.
The thief left the heads for Mr.
Cozzens to gaze upon. This Is an
amazing record, and a scamp as well
as a thief was the performer.
OUR MINES.
The Wealth that lies at our Door.
The mineral resources of Wads
worth are of great Importance. There
are undeveloped possibilities In this
district unknown and apparently at
present unheeded, upon which the
future of this district vitally hinges.
Fortieth Parallel Mining District,
about 20 miles northeast of this place,
is producing copper ores that cause
It to be regarded as the coming copper
camp of Nevada.
Hot Springs Mining District, 12
miles east of here, produces copper,
gold, silver and lead prospects of con
siderable value. Recently, a 6-feet
ledge of carbonate of copper was dis
covered carrying from 17 to 23 per
cent copper. I
White Horse Mining District em
braces Ninth Crossing, Ollnghouse
Canyon, Free Canyon, Tiger Canyon,
and White Horse Canyon mines.
In this district are found free gold,
native copper, carbonate and sulphide
copper ores carrying gold and sliver
In combination; also gold and silver<
bearing sulphides, the arsenical pyrites
being usually very low In gold and
silver values. Lead is found tn both
sulphide and carbonate terms. The
latter Is generally rich In silver and
often carries excellent gold values.
The gold tree, taken from the Slip
mine, was sent to the Nevada Exhibit
at St. Louis.
W. C. Williams, of OJinghouse. has
been very busy preparing to open up
the Addle C. at the mouth of White
'Horse Canyon. The hoist Is now
awaiting delivery to the mine from
depot, and Is modern In all respects.
Mr. Williams Intends to put on a crew
by I st of .month, and will continue the
development of what is destined to be
proven—the largest and best mine In
the State.
The property Is of more than passing
Interest, for It has certain features
which may, with development, become
of great value to the owner and In
directly of benefit to this vicinity.
The vein Is about 60 feet In width,
and appears to be heavily charged with
gold-bearing pyrites that assay from
$6 to $ 11 per ton. About 40 per cent
of the values may be recovered by
amalgamation. The country Is por
phry. The vein Is nearly vertical for
the first 50 feet, but from this depth
down to fhe 90 feet level a slight dip
to the S. E. is noted.
The values are not uniform through
out the entire width and depth of vein,
but the variations are for Improvement
in values with depth. No sorting Is
required, however, as the entire vein
Is ore.
If Mr. Williams succeeds In opening
another Bonanza, it will create no
i
surprise to those who know him,
Another Rich Strike.
Another bonanza strike has been
made near Goldfield, this time in the
Gold Crater district, 26 miles east and
slightly south of here. Sanders and
Inman are the lucky owners.
The vein is large and easily traced,
and the pay streak Is about 18 Inches
wide. The ore assays $654 per ton.
A townslte has been laid out. and
It Is anticipated that the Gold Crater
will become a very lively camp. ?nd
soon be on the list of ore shippers.
Wood is about 6 miles distant from
the camp, and while water is none too
plentiful, it can easily be developed.
Baseball.
The Overland team was defeated by
the Virginia team again. The Over
landers have disbanded.
Two Thousand Men.
As soon as the contracts are let for
the construction of the canal laterals
In Churchill county, which will be done
soon,- an enormous force of men and
teams will be put to work near Fallon.
The undertaking will be vigorously pro
secuted through the winter, and the
contractors say that they will be able
to employ from 500 to 1000 teams
and over 2000 men.
Liberal Donation.
J. B. O’Sullivan has donated four
very desirabte lots to the Catholic
Church of Sparks. This liberal gift
ensures the erection of a substantial
edifice.
At a meeting of the Catholic ladies,
at Sparks, the other afternoon, it was
decided to hold a fair during the last
week in October to raise funds for the
Church. The subscription lists, vthlch
are In circulation, promise substantial
results.
Orators on Tour.
William Jennings Bryan has opened
the political campaign In Nevada, and
addressed a crowded audience at the
Opera House, Reno. Monday evening,
and will stump the State in behalf of the
Democratic Ticket. It is the purpose
of the managers of the Democratic
and silver fight to have the great silver
advocate address the people at every
Important town In the State.
Chas. W. Fairbanks, the Republican
Vice-Presidential candidate, will arrive
in Reno next Wednesday, thence to
Carson, where he Is billed to speak in
the afternoon, returning to Reno the
same evening in time to deliver an
address at the Opera House. Arrives
Elko on the 6th, thence Ogden.

and Miss Leta Yeargin, who are. to
visit Mrs. S. S. Sears.
H. McDonald has returned from a
visit to relatives in California. The
Sparks Headlight says he will have a
residence built at Sparks soon. This
looks a little suspicious.

by Alexander Sbott and John S. Nott.
Nott was phot and Bliott wss not. In
thin case it was Ixitter to be Bliott than
Nott.
In an article on Nevada in an
Eastern paper, it is reported a soap
mine has been discovered near Wads
worth, and this is an additional reason
why the hobos dodge this State.
