Six stopes are active in Belmont Incline, with ore assays around 275 ounces silver per ton and 22 percent lead, shipments to follow from the 90 foot level.

Broken Hills Shaft Opens Main Vein System Deep
The Broken Hills shaft, 460 feet west of Belmont Incline, opens the main northwest southeast bearing vein. High grade silver sulfide ore extends to 250 feet with ore valued at 25.25 a ton, while 150 foot level ore runs 2404 a ton. A shoot at 150 feet yields 94 a ton. Drifts extend north and south on 250 feet to block and stop to 156 feet. Persistent high grade ore supports rapid development and potential rich tonnage.

A rough OCR reads as Nevada general election on November 2 1920 for a constitutional amendment altering Article Six. It discusses jurisdiction limits power of the supreme court and chief justice, and provisions for designating substitute justices for vacancy disability or disqualification. The text is garbled but centers on the governor appointing or designating replacements while preserving court authority and procedural boundaries.
