SUTRO TUNNEL COMPANY,

rl'o THE PEOPLE OF NEVADA: The first
/ pick in the Sutro Tunnel has been struck,
AID the good work is daily progressing; but 10
complete il requires millions of dollars which
cannot be obtained ON the Pacific coast.
In order to inspire confidence 10 capitalists
abroad, and in order to make Congress fully ap-
pr, ciute the true scntimru Entertained here 4
Is ABSOLUTELY cEss>BY that a general and sub.
st1ntill Endorsement Of the pr ject should be
made right here at home.
The California Bank ring. the arch enemy If
thi- great ami good work, which in its results viii
be magnificent aud henev lent, will, as it has
heretofore. every effort to impress capitalists
at a di-tance with the belief that they, the sup
posed owners of these mines, being opposed T.
the Tunnel look upon il ~ an undertaking use
less, unnecessary Improbable and chimercal.
They will do every thing within their power TO
control the acti, Of our Senators, and Will leave
nothing unduue to create the same impressions Ia
Washington, and will, by fair or foul T. taus. iry
to defeat any subsidy which Cong ess may be
willing to grant.
There i but one way to defeat their Machine
tons! There is but one way to sustain the Pro-
jector in hts efforts to accomplish this great wugk
There is but one way # bringing about the ar
IDENTIFY wished for result!
Let every man and woman who can scare hse
dollars 60 promptly up to the office # the SutrD
funnel Company, and buy ONE SHARE, at least Of
the unassessable stock. Let >, G0o or 5000 of the
and women who live the very spot AMI
ought to be the best judges Of the importance Of
tn work, indorse It by becoming stockholders IN
the Company; let ,, 00O or 8 900 men Hnd women.
the true owners Of these mines, say they are will
ling TO invest their money, and thar they have
in the results to How from the under |
taking, and then let the Bank ring come forward |
and dare to msrepresent and belle the viii Of the
peop'e!
It is not so much the amount OF money which |
can be raised in Nevada it is the home indorse- |
ment which is required; five dollars to yoa, work
ing n and women, feeced and swindled as you |
have been is a great deal of money; it is III lch
as thousands Of dollars to the wealthy in great
cities; and still you can all spare that amount If |
you will only make the effort.
Come in then Jromptly; no not pos 'pone it for '
a day; subscribe and pay for one share Of stock;
your names recorded on the books; you be- |
come st ckholders to all inteuts and purposes; 1t
makes You as much entitled to hearing if you |
owned thousand shares; you own your own |
pr portion Of all the property of the Company now
possessed or hereafter to be acquired; you thereby
indorse the enterprise; you lay You have conf |
dence in it: you cast your vote for the Sutro Tun
mel and against the opposition Of the California
Bank; You sustain the protector in his efforts, and
declare that you will stand by him, fair play,
and that he shall not be crushed out by that |
sc scheming combination, the Calf rnia Bank ring!
Therei is no time to lose: let all come in at once;
let those at distance subscribe by letter; but |
little time intervenes between this and the meet
ing of Congress; if you will subscribe NOW. il will
be possible to promptly raise several hundred |
thousand dollars amongst the people of California
and in that manner secure the progress Of the |
work while bill il pending before Congress.
Let us have a voto then on the Sutro Tunnel
Let those who are in favor OF it. and have the
means, put down their five dollars, and thus
prove their public spirit; let thc no against
il, or in with the California Bank refuse it, and
let US make note On it for future reference.
