FROM BLUE BELL the newspapers had mver given him a square deal. But he threw out a few hints of something in the wind which would throw any of his past, exploits into the shade. But he wouldn't do more than hint as to his expected restoration to fame Ind fortune, so the public will have to await developments in the career of the mysterious "Scotty."

JU PARROTT & RENNIE Phone 1782 tember, which prohibited United States deputy mineral surveyors froni oTakiag lo.cti.tion or amended location sjfVveys of mining claims, or an official survey thereof, and acting before the land office in se curing patent. A number of Goldfleld surveyors joined in a protest to the land of fice against the ruling, and yester day the following letter was re ceived by Thomas Withers, who was one of the protestants, from the United States land office at Reno: Department of the Interior, Reno, Nev., Dec. 9, 1909. To U. S. Deputy Mineral Surveyors, District of Nevada: Sirs: By letter "N" H. G. P., dated November 30, 1909, the Hon orable Commissioner of the Gen eral Land Office,. Washington, D. C, has modified his ruling to this of fice on paragraph 128 of the Min ing Regulations as contained in cir cular letters to you, dated Sept. 8, 1909, by recognizing the right of a U. S. Mineral Surveyor to make not only a location, or an amended lo cation survey of a mining claim, but an official survey thereof as well. However, the Honorable Commis sioner holds that a U. S. Mineral Surveyor under said paragraph is prohibited from filing a certificate of location with the recording offi cer, as he is thereby acting for his principal, the locator, in the matter of making the location. He also states that it would seam that such acts of locating would in the inter est of good business principles, be performed by the locator or his duly authorized agent instead of a min eral surveyor who is disqualified to so act and whose assistance along that line might bring into question the validity of the location. He also held in a letter dated July 2o, 1909. and addressed to the surveyor general of Arizona: "ft may be in line with economy but it is not good practice for a J, S. Mineral Surveyor to be the agent of the claimant one day, and an employe of the land department the next, in work upon the same loca tion." Following the Honorable Commis sioner's! Instructions, this office will not Issue an order for survey to p U. S. Mineral Surveyor who appears from the record to have acted a8 an agent or attorney for mineral claimants, by filing their location certificates for record. Very respectfully, MATTHEW KYLE, U. S. Surveyor General for Nevada. PRODUCTION OF MINERALS IX CALIFORNIA The United States geological sur vey reports that in 1908 California produced $18,761,599 in gold; 1, 647,278 ounces of silver, valued at $873,057; and 706 ounces of re fined platinum, valued at $13,414. This platinum was all produced at placer mines in Butte, Humboldt, Siskiyou, Trinity, Calaveras, Sacra mento and Del Norte counties, three fourths of it having been mined In Butte county. The values of California's output of gold, silver, and platinum In 1907 were $16,727,928, $751,646, and $8900, respectively. The quantity of silver mined in the state in 1907 was 1,138,858 ounces; the quantity of platinum mined was 300 ounces. The record of the state's production of these metals in 1908 therefore shows considerable gains over the production on 1907. The value of the gold produced in the state In 1905 was slightly in excess, of the value for 1908, but with that excep tion the figures for gold and silver production In 1908 are the largest attained within the last decade. Gains over 1907 in the produc tion of gold were made by 21 coun ties, chiefly Butte, Calaveras, Mer ced and Stanislaus, Inyo, Mariposa, Nevada, Sacramento, Shasta, Siski you, and Yuba, and gains in the production of both gold and silver were made by 17 counties, among which were Butte, Calaveras, Eldo rado, Nevada, Plumas, San Bernar dino, Shasta, Siskiyou, Trinity, and Yuba. The statistics presented were col- AUSTIN, Nev., Dec. 11. Colonel S. T. Pearson came down from Ber lin last Saturday, bringing, with him $2000 in gold bullion. This was from the Berlin mill, now the prop erty of the Goldfleld Blue Bell Min ing company, and was the product of ore mined by leasers on the com pany's property. The mill is now running steadily, and these consign ments of bullion may be looked for right along. . Fully as important as the output of this bullion is the discovery of picture rock on the Shamrock group of claims, also belonging to the Blue Bell people. The discovery was made by S. Lampa, who was at once given a lease on liberal terms. The high grade streak is four or five inches thick, and is very rich in gold. This strike will be fol lowed closely, and if it holds out it means the liveliest times lone has seen since it was the county seat of Nye county. , The Shamrock group is one of the earliest patented groups of claims in the state of Nevada. The mines have not been worked since 1864. At that time shafts were sunk to 250 feet, but there has never been such ore found on the group before as this brought In by Lampa. It is not far from this place that Thomas Murphy of Goldfleld has been successfully carrying on placer operations during the past season. Progress 1s also being made in the King Midas tunnel on the Good ing property. San Francisco parties are said to be taking hold of adja cent property, expecting to find fully as good ore on the acreage. Reese River Reveille. RAILROAD MEN TO ASK BIG INCREASE HUT IT WILL NOT HE GRANTED UNLESS RATES ARE RAISED "SCOTTY" NOW SPENDING SILVER HUT HINTS THAT HE WILL BE . AGAIN IN THE MOXEY A Xew York dispatch says: Demands for increases in wages formulated for presentation to the railroads, will call in some cases for n laise of 100 per cent, Vice Presi dent James Murdock of the Broth erhood of Railway Trainmen de clared Wednesday. The demands would not be pre sented, however, he stated, until af- .ter January 1st, and then only u ratified by a vote of the employees. "There is no thought of a strike in connection with the demands to be presented," said Mr. Murdock. "By the agreements between the or ganizations and the railroads it is required that 30 days' notice be given the railway managers for con sideration of the wage scale, so that some time must elapse before any question might be raised as to whether the .roads will meet the men's desires." An important statement bearing on the attitude of. the railroads in the matter of increasing wages was made by W. C. Brown, president of the New York Central railroad. "If It Is true," he said, "that there has been an increase in the cost of living since the Increase in railroad wages In the latter part of 1906 and early In 1907, then the men are justified In asking for some further increase at this time. "If no such increase in the cost of living has taken place, then the men cannot expect more pay. The facts remain to be determined. "But it. cannot be stated too em phatically or too promptly, that no increase whatsoever in wages, no matter how large or small, is pos sible without commensurate increase in railroad rates. There is not a railroad In the country that can af ford to pay its employees more now without getting better rates." Walter Scott, the Death valley mystery, blew into Wlnnemucca last evening and blew out again on one of the night trains. This was his first visit to this place since about a year ago, when he dropped off here while on his way east, where he went broke and, according to the newspaper stories, met with one of the worst hard luck streaks of his career. Since that time "Scotty" and his wife have been making their home near ' Humboldt House, hav ing practically dropped out of sight as far as public notoriety is con cerned. While-in town last night "Scotty" didn't break any records as a spend er, but he bought a few rounds of drinks for ,$ome of his friends and acquaintances, passing silver over the bar in payment.

The next morning he read one of the Tono pah ads In the columns of the Bo nanza and In the afternoon came into town and purchased $60 wortn from a local merchant. Better goods than the mail order houses handle can always be pur chased from your home merchant, and this at a lower price, if you will only call on them. The fact is that the merchants are just a little bit diffident about telling the pub lic juBt what they have. They for get that it pays to advertise.
