Now It Is all aboard for East Ely
In earnest. With the new business
blocks coming up she will increase
her population 100 per cent and her
business activities several times over
that figure during the present year.
- —
State papers are busy headlining
the fact that the snow is going rapid
ly from the mountains. The rail
Toads were fully convinced of as
much several weeks ago.
With Mr. Schiff predicting war
with Japan and Russia, and quite a
few labor leaders talking of a na
tional strike and civil war, the coun
try might be pardoned if it halted a
while to look around and gather up
a few rocks, but it don’t appear tc
bother a bit. Railroad, factory and
mine reports sing a different song,
so loud in its good cheer that the
other is drowned out.
Is the ore here? is a question that
does not apply to this district. If it
did there would be pointed answer in
the fact that in a year and a half
the copper output has grown from
nothing to six million pounds per
month, with the goods demonstrated
to double that output at any time
through the provision of additional
reduction facilities and the putting
on of the miners. And the reduction
works are growing, evenly, smooth
ly and healthily right along.
This Is East Ely's year, and she
has been busy with it ever since the
first in construction of new homes.
Enterprise in this direction which
the year will witness is certain of
going beyond anything before known
in the state. The people of the
camp are behind it with their en
dorsement and ambition to build
upon the splendid foundation that
has been put down for a prosperous,
vigorous, home owning community
second to none in strength in the
west.
Recent visitors from Salt Lake
commend the suggestion by the News
the Salt Lakers may expect from
city upon the opening of the West
ern Pacific, now planned for about
June 1. Some of these have en
thusiastically promised to take the
matter before the Commercial Club
of Salt Lake and enli3t Its aid in , 1
making the excursion one that will
bring many prominent Salt Lake
business men as well as mining men,
brokers and newspaper men. June
1 will find the camp in fine form,
with its six million pounds a month
copper gait established and the
various mining activities in the dis
trict going their best clip. Not only
will the visit proposed be of much
advantage to the district, but it will
be well balanced by results which
the Salt Lakeers may expect from
gaining better acquaintance with
this district, its vast enterprises and
its progressive people. The latter
know too little, as matters stand,
of Salt Lake's business heads for the
best interests on either side to be
fully served.
The Sacramento division superin
tendent of the S. P., has offered to
furnish all towns along his piece of
road with rock piles free of charge
on which the town may put hobos
at work producing street improve
ment material. The superintendent
figures that in this way his division
will be freed from the annoyance of
the non-paying travel and its occas
sional depredations in the breaking
open of shipments and attachment
of the contents thereof. The towns
will benefit through riddance from
the plague of idle and dangerous
visitors bearing the insignia of the
wandering foot. Seems like a capital
scheme. Its application locally might
be made to advantage for the be.iefit
of the undesirables complained of in
the recent grand jury report, who
constitute the only idle in the camp.

MINES AND MINING
DERN TO TELL
SALT LAKERS
TO GOME HERE
Fred C. Dern, of the Salt Lake
brokerage firm of Dern & Thomas,
and son of John Dern, the widely
known Utah mining operator, re
turned to Salt Lake yesterday, after
a stay of four days in the district.
Mr. Dern recently became heavily
interested in the Ely Centennial Cop
per company, and it was for the pur
pose of examining the property of
that company, as well as familiariz
ing himself with the entire district
that he made his visit here. He re
turned home fully convinced that the
Centennial has great prospects and
that it is only a matter of time when
this district will fulfill the general
prediction that it will prove a second
Butte.
“I am going to tell the people of
Salt Lake,” said Mr. Dern, ‘'that they
have only known a part of the truth
about the district. The rest they will
have to come here to get, for no one
can tell all that this camp holds in
the way of immense developed re
sources and great prospects for the
future. Also 1 am going to advise
them to come here and see you; get
.acquainted and learn your needs.
Commercial enterprise of Salt Lake
can greatly better itself by mixing
first handed with this camp, and the
large trade which it has gives occa
sion for such treatment. I am very
glad that I came here with Mr. Hulse
and I wish to say that 1 expect to I
come back many times in the fu-1
ture.”
OIL TOWN READY FOR BOOM.
Sulphur Grows. Despite Bad Weather
—Two Concerns Have Rig*.
Despite the bad w-eather, con- (
siderable building has been ac
complished during the winter at
Sulphur, the metropolis of the new !
oil fields in Humboldt county, Ne- |
vada. A store and postoffice build
ing, a lodging house and three sa
loons have been constructed, and
numerous tents occupy the townslte.
From fifty to seventy-five men are
on the ground, waiting for the snow
to go off, when operations will be
commenced on an extensive scale,
says the Winnemucca Silver State.
The Co-operative and Nevada Oil
companies are outflting with rigs
preparatory to developing their ex
tensive holdings. The limited
amount of stock offered for sale by
the former company has been practi
cally exhausted, $700 w-orth having
been sold in one day to Idaho parties
There is an extensive inquiry from
all over the’ country regarding the
new oil fields. Should either of the
companies make a showing in the
spring, there is little doubt that a
stampede will follow.
MAY REOPEN l>K LAMAR.
Newhouse and Guggenheim En
gineers Examine Property.
Mining engineers representing
both the Newhouse and the Guggen
heim interests have lately been
for some time examining the old
De Lamar mine and properties ad
jacent to it. The Magnolia, which
was the first producer of the district,
seems to attract their particular at
tention.
The Magnolia, to the depth of 300
feet carried large values in free mill
ing gold. Below that depth silver
and copper values came in to such
an extent that the company’s mill
was unable to handle it. A reduction
plant had been planned by the com
pany’s engineers when came the
order to close down. That the Mag
nolia will soon be in operation again
is the firm belief.
AGAINST PAPER COMPANY.
Court Sustains Congressional Com*
mittee in Ignoring Rid.
WASHINGTON, March March 14.
—Judge Wright today dismissed the
action brought by the Holyoke Pa
per company of Massachusetts
against the joint printing committee
of congress, on the grounds that pa
per company's bid was illegal in
form and did not comply with the
regulations of the committee. The
attorneys for the paper company
asked permission to appeal.
The case at one time threatened
to develop into a contest of the au
thority of the judicial branch of the
government over the legislative.
\\ KDITOR'8 NEEDS.
It is all very well to talk about
running a newspaper with sublime
indifference to the question of its
financial support and chief consider
ation of Its possibilities of general
usefulness, but there Is one editor at
least to whom the motto of live and
| let live appeals with considerable
jforre. He conducts the Post of Bain
bridge, Ga., and in a recent issue re
marked:
“It is reported that there Is a fas
tidious newly married lady in Bain
bridge that kneads bread with her
gloves on. This incident may be
somewhat peculiar, but there are
others. The editor of this paper
needs bread with his shoes on; he
needs bread with his shirt on; he
Ineeds bread with his pants on, and
lunless some of the folks that are ow
ing us come across right soon we
will need bread without a dam thing
on. The grubbing hoe of truth and
freedom should take into consider
ation that a newspaper office Is no
garden of Eden in the summer time.”
I
BOTH THE BEST
COPPER FLAT, March 14.—The
ore and stripping production for
March to date is exceeding any
month in the history of the mine,
i.nd if conditions continue to be as
favorable as at present throughout
the month, t will be a record month.
The five shovels and r ?n locomotives
are all in constant use day and night
and the pit was ne' er in as good
shape as at present.
Mr. and Mrs. James F. Parkes,
left for San Francisco Monday, where
Mr. Parks goes to attend to his busi
ness interests there and where they
will reside permanently. Their
many friends here regret very much
their departure, and wisn them all
success and good fortune in their
new home.
Work has started on the twenty
new dwelling houses at Ruth and
they will all be occupied as fast as
they are built, as there are now more
than enough applications to till them.
Miss Dela Leafdale, of Ruth, left
today for a month's vacation to the
coast, where she will visit relatives.
A farewell party was given Mr.
and Mrs. E. J. Mansey at their home
on the townsite Friday night by
about twenty of their friends. Mrs.
Mansey, leaves shortly for their new
home in Salt Lake City, and it is
with much regret on the part of
their many friends in this vicinity
that they take their departure.
The Nevada Con., staff gave a
dinner to Mr. and Mrs. James F.
Parks last Thursday evening at the
staff quarters.
A dance was enjoyed very much
by a large number of young people
given at the Nevada Con., hotel last
Tuesday evening. Music was furnish
ed by Messrs. Harris and Denbe and
a general good time was had by all
present.
Walter Perkins has a new dog
named "Kiddo,” a recent arrival
from Salt Lake City.
AVALANCHE IN JAIUHDC.K,
Carried Two Twin Falls Men Tlms1
t^uartcrs of a Mile.
J. H. Hehnstock and Billy Hoops
of Twin Falls experienced the excite
ment of traveling down hill at many
miles an hour in a snowslide in Jar
bidge camp according to what Hehn
stock says since he arrived here Sun
day, says the Twin Falls News. In
taking that ride he insists that he
was "going some” and the story he
■relates about it shows that the other
fellow thought he was certainly In
the same class.
"When the slide started with us,"
explained Hehnstock, “I was at least
seventy-five feet behind Hoops. When
we arrived at the end of the trip
down hill I could not at first see
where he was, but I yelled to him,
and In fact yelled to anybody that
might hear me, to come and help me
out of the snow. A voice came
back. It was that of Hoops and
sounded from a point further up the
hill than I was. He replied: “Say,
Hehnstock, 1 dont't see where you
passed me coming down.” I could not
tell him. It was certainly a novel ex
perience for us both. We had been
prospecting on what has been termed
by the Jarbldgeites •Snowslide' hill,
on Feb. 20. The snow was cracking,
and as we came out of the timber,
where it was so deep that it came to
the tops of the trees I noticed a series
of louder cracks. Then we started.
The snow came tumbling seemingly
from behind us. We were some
times buried and sometimes not.
The slide carried us three-quarters
of a mile. It left Hoops standing on
his feet, and neither of us hurt.”
_
A Santa Fe passenger train was
wrecked near Pueblo, and several
passengers injured.
