227, 600 acres of land have been submerged

Where Silver is Found.

Professor James Urton says silver is
usually found with lead ore and native
copper. States and sandstones inter-
sected by igneous rocks, as trap and
porphyry, are good localities. Pure
silver is often found in and near iron
ores, and the dark brown zinc blend.
The New Mexico silver ores are porous
at the surface, and colored more or less
red and green. Any rock suspected OF
containing silver should be powdered
and dissolved in acid. Pour off the
liquid and add to it solution of salt.
If white powder falls to the bottom,
which, upon exposure turns black,
there is silver in it. Silver mines in
crease in value as in depth, whereas
gold diminishes as we desceud.

THE RAILROAD TITANS.

The Contest Between Jay Gould and
Stanford Croker g. Co. for the SUI
premaey. Humboldt be Bene-
fitted by the Fight?
Ed. SILVER STATE: Jay Gould, the
Railroad King Of the Atlantic is reach
ing out his gigantic paw towards the
Gulf of Mexico with view of securing
the Oregon, Washington Territory and
Western Idaho trade. If he has Sc
cured the Battle Mountain and Austin
road, of which there seems to be no
doubt, he evidently intends to extend
it north to Oregon, and south to connect
with some Gulf line. Governor Stan
ford, the Pacific Railroad King, is
watching with an eager eye these moves
of Jay Gould on the railroad chess
board. Stanford is determined to con-
troll the railroad system on this coast,
and its outlets. The Oregon and Gulf
road is pet scheme of his, and it is
outlined ON the Central Pacific maps.
The Southern Pacific has been pushed
forward with unparalleled energy and
speed, so as to secure certain strategic
points, the better to build up his grand
Pacific system. The Oregon and Gulf
line is the next on the programme, and
it's immediate construction is a necessity
to checkmate Gould If Gould gets
the lead in this north and south route,
it may checkmate Stanford in that di.
rection and Humboldt lose this road,
while our neighbors to the eastward
will reap the benefit. 1t is said that
the Central Pacific people have in view
the control of continuous line or lines
of road from the Pacific to New York,
and other Eastern ports. The compile
ton of the Southern Pacific to the Gulf
is the first in the c. 2. plans. This
will be accomplished by the close of
the present year. Second-The build
ing of the Oregon line to intersect with
the S. Z. at Marieopa Wells in Arizo-
ma. When these two roads are built
they will be in position to make for
ward move to New York by the pur-
chase of certain roads and the construc-
ton of connecting links.
The next decade will witness the
grandest strides in railroads constructed
ever known and beyond the widest
dreams of the most enthusiastic of our
railroad men. The success of Stanford,
Croker K Co. stands unrivaled in his
tory. What the future will reveal in
the construction of railroads by them
may be reasonably anticipated In this
grand conflict between these Titans for
the mastery in securing the trade of the
immense empire of territory to the
north and west of us Humboldt has a
deep interest. If we shall be so fortu-
nate as to secure the Oregon and Gulf
road, our county will be second to none
in wealth and population, and should
Winnemucca be the junction it will be
the most important town in the State.
