What tho Mines Of Nevada have Pro-

The following is taken from the
report of Surveyor General Preble:
Any section of European country
that had produced $3.50 100000 of sill
yer and 145,0O0,OO0 of gold in twenty
years, as the Comstock has, and dis
bursed as dividends $120,000,000
besides dlsbursing, 81, 100000 annually
in wages, would be fostered and en-
couraged in its production by the
general Government and would be
looked upon as a mainstay to the
financial market of the world. The
Government, however, seems TO regard
the matter as of no consequence.
Outside the Comstock, nearly
$100,000,000 more have been produced
in the State, adding to the tangible
wealth of the world over $425, 10000
in silver and gold. This is from
assessors reports; true reports would
show nearer $600,0000O0, as a vast

of building up the State and benefitng

and sold $4,000 acres of land in the

from the outside. Property Is not
