MeCraney, l'resident of the Nevada Editorial Assoc. ation and editor of the Manhattan Times was in town today arranging for the semi annual meeting of the Association wh.ch was to have been held in Tonopah in August- The meeting has been postponed until September. Arrangtments are beiug made for a trip to "Los Angeles by the members of the Association. Particulars of the trip will son be sent out to the edit ors of the state. Mr. MeCraney is as enthusiastic over the prospects of Manhattan as ever. He says that Manhattan is a proven camp and now all that is lack ing to make Manhattan a great big mining camp, is machinery to get the ore out of the ground and mills to reduce it. The strike of tellurium ore upon the Thanksgiving estate last week insures permanency and. has caused an excitement- among the mine owners of that camp such as have linf before been seen. The owners of ihe property adjacent to the Thanksgivir.JT who have not al ready lunam work .are getting to work with a view to going down to the sulphide level. There is no doubt but what some great mines will be opened up within the next few mouths along the Thanksgiving vein. The Thanksgiving mine now has this rich vein uncovered for a dis tance of 50 feet and a depth of 25 feet down with the vein, and they still average better than $300 per ton, so say the experts who have examined the mineral. In all the workings along this vein for a distance of nine miles the same indications appear upon the different properties as ap peared at the same depth obtianed upon the Thanksgiving, hence prov ing, to almost a certainty, that this rich vein runs through from Central on the west to Ralston Valley on tne eas;. Manhattan is the coming camp and will, beyond doubt be one of the largest if not the largest mining camp in the whole of Southern Nevada. All that is needed to assure this i3 hoist ing machinery, mills and a railroad. All of which will be there just as soon as money and men can get them then. o-o SURPLUS OF $87,000,000 AT END OF FISCAL YEAR MUNICIPAL SYSTE MAY COST $100,000 Report of Engineer Boy! Pre sented to City Trustees at Meeting Last Might The board of city trustees held a at certain seasons of the year an special metting at the court house effort w.ll be made to secure water last even.ng to consider the report from other parties In that district of engineer Boyle on the cost of plae- which will be used in cases of enter ing and maintaining a municipal water and fire system in this city. Engineer Boyle's report was very thorough and covered all the details of the uudetakiug. Three estimates were submitted by him one for a wood stave line, another for a cast iron pipe line and the third provid ing screw casings. The wood line wou'.d cost $39,000 including the pur- gency. Permission of a right-of-way to th.s city will also be secured dur ing the week. Engineer Boyle stated to the board last evening that the wood stave pipe 1'ne, which would be by far the heapest, had proved exceptionally 'srvicable in other localit.es and re -ommeuded the same to the board, lite trustees are going ahead with PROGRESS AT VALLEY PARK Mew and Modern Hemes Being CompsetQd and I vi ore Will be Bunt HEARING IS POSTPONED chase price of the Zimmer ranch this matter in the right way and they where the supply of water will be ob- intend to give the c.ty of Carson a tained. The cast iron line is esti mated to cost $96,000 and the screw- casings $1,000, tuese amounts aiso include t he purchase price of the ranch. To the above estimates at least $to,000 should be added in order to complete the system according to the plans that have been laid out by the trustees. It has been claimed thatt he water supply at the Zimmer ranch is in adequate for the purpose for which the trustees wish to use it aud could not be depended upon at certain times of the year for fire purposes. This report will be thoroughly in vestigated during the present week by tae board and if it is found that municipal water supply that will last for all time aud one that will insure the people ample fire protection, ft is the intention of the board to place forty-six hydrants in the city, thus placing all property within two squares of a fire plug. The plans call for a ten inch pipe line to be laid from the Zimmer ranch to the city, probably to the intersection of Robin son and Carson streets and from this point six-inch pipe linps will supply the fire and sewer systems. Valley Park present a lively and progressive appearauce these days. Carpenters, painters and plasters are busy putting the finishing touches oa the three cottages that have just Ik en bu.lt.

Mexicaa John Pattersoa, who was assaulted by a mob at Wonder, and tared and feathered on a flimsy charge that he had attempted an assault on two little girls, has commeaced proceed ing, both criruiaal aad civil agaiast his assailants and says he will push hi3 suit for damages against the county and state. He has engaged able attorneys and since the facts have been learaed regarding the assault by the mob the sympathy is with Patterson. It seems that Patterson had beea drinking and had visited Wonder from Hercules camp and when leav ing a saloon in the former camp by a rear door, he met a couple of little girls who were terrified at hia ap pearance and ran to their mother screaming. The mother became ex cited and hysterically conveyed the idea to the miners that the man had attempted an assault on her children. She now says that she may have been mistaken. o-o SHORT SESSION There was a short session of the district court last evening In this city. Judge Langan calling court about 7 o'clock.

A late dispatch from Washington says that so far as working purposes are concerned the fiscal year of the government closed with a surplus of substantially $S7,000,000, one of the largest balances ever shown. In the fiscal year 1902, there was a surplus of $91,287,375, but that was the larg est since 1890. In the year just closed the income from the various sources of revenue was $065,306,131 and expenditures $578,376,709 as compared with re ceipts of $59I-,454,121 for the last fis cal year aud expenditures of $36S, 7ir4,799, the su; ,l;n in that year be ing $25,669,322. There has been a tremendous in crease in receipts in the year just closed while the expenditures have been only about $10,000,000 in excess of last year. The lagest increase m receipts has been in customs, al though internal revenue has shown a big gain. The receipts this fiscal year in customs were $333,230,1 26 and in internal revenue $270,303, 3SS. The receipts last year held the rec ord up to that time and this yeaVs income from that source is about $33, 000,000 in excess ot last year. Internal revenue receipts likewise broke all records, except during the Spanish war wheu special taxes were being collected. The United States forest rangers have been instructed to enov.ve this law and are now doing so. As a number of sports from this section spend some time in the Sierras on hunting trips every year it will be well for them to look after this part of the program or they stand a good chance of getting the worst of the deal. MANY CLAIMS RECORDED Twenty five claims were recorded during the month of June in Recorder Stern's office.

Secretary Jasmea F, Calbreach prepared a plan for a building at a cost of $300,000 but this did not meet the views ot President J. H. Rich ards of Boise, Idaho, who argued that it was betted to delay the construc tion until the project cau be carried out on a grand s.cale. He won over the other members of the committee j to his point of view, and it was agreed 'to undertake to raise $1,000.00 for building the temple. The committee issued the formal call for the next meeting of the con gress at Joplin, Missouri, Nov. 11 to 16. The principal subjects which it is hoped to agitate are the draftings of laws for the prevention of acci dents in mines, the establishment of uniform laws ia all states; to estab lish side-line location of claims, and the abolition of the apex rights and J.

There is over a thousand tons of ore in sight and the samples brought in show it to be good ore, too. There is plenty of wood aud water in the Canyon and lots of open ground, the discoverers only taking up six claims. Mr. Mclntyre remain ed to do developmeat work while Mr. Bunch came in with samples to get assays and determine tha value of their find.
