Mining Very Active

Carson Nev3
says Governor
After nearly half a century of i Sparks received a telegram last
varying vicissitudes the mines of
Goodsprings are being given a
real show. The Salt Lake rail
road did much for the district,
but the smelter will make
possible' the handling of low
grade ore, and the profitable
working of many properties.
Tradition has it that the
Potosi tribe of Indians roughly
mined and fashioned bullets
from the gsJena re. Later the
location of this wg lead deposit
Became known to Brigham"
Young and he sent out a band of
Mormons to work the mine,
Then, strange to relate, ore was
taken to Fort Douglas by Gen
eral Sydney Johnstone, and the
bullets manufactured were used
in the' miniature war waged
against the Mormons by the
United States government. But
all this is ancient history, and to
day Mormon and Gentile capital i3
pouring into the district and the
section teems with activity.
W. H. Wilson, manager of the
new smelter, together with
Contractor Joseph Dedrichs, ar
rived yesterday, and at once
started preparatory work.
At a later date it is their in
tention to visit all the mining
camps of southern Nevada and
personally acquaint shippers
with prices and terms. A
sampling works and assay office
are to be at once erected, in
order that the company can
commence buying ore. Jean,
which is the station on the Salt
Lake Route, is save :i miles dis
tant from Goxbprin?, where
the smelter will be erected, and
the two places ?J3 to be con
nected by either an electric or a
regular railroad, .The smelter
will have twa. blast furnaces,
one flat bottom for copper mats,
the other a crucible for lead.

evening from Sheriff Murphy of
Lander county, who is at Ogden.
He states that Nevada has lost
its three prisoners, whom he
was bringing from Chicago to
have their trial at Austin on the
charge of fraud, for which they
were indicted by the grand jury.
They were brought from Chicago
under extradition papers signed
by the governor of Illinois, who
revoked his papers after the
sheriff had the men as far : as
Utah. , . t
Habeas corpus proceedings
were instituted in Ogden and the
men were turned loose. The in
dictment will remain against the
trio, but they cannot be punished
unless they are caught within
the State.
Governor Sparks remarked this
morning to a News repre
sentative: "New Jj a pretty
good time for ' the stockmen of
Nevada to take warning and look
out for Chicago sharpers, as they
come here and give bogus checks
make contracts for the delivery
of horses and cattle and relr
dudiate their debts.

000, on which no taxes are levied.
The net bullion proceeds only
are taxed. The mine3 supply

The population is estimated at
75,000. ,

A little Ferron girl, says the

words on any ? subject. She
choae to write about a stove
which her father had just put
up, so she wrpttt -.the . following:
"My father . tried .to put . up a
stove yesterday Joorning. . Just
as he gotit nearly p hej started
to put one of the "legs 'under that
had fallen out," and the "whole
stove, pipe and all came down.
I guess that makes about fifty
words, and Pa said the other 300
while he" finished putting up the
stove." iV "'V-
