Almost every mining man Of the ter.
ritory and the Pacific coast knows Of the
immense wealth hidden 10 the noun
tains and hills Of Mohave county. They
know that the gold and silver mines ol
this county have panned out their val
uable products and have made many Of
the old pioneers independent, and some
rich. But this knowledge is but limited
and to attract the vast capital invested
IN mining, and seeking this channel for
advantageous Investments Il is neces-
sary that Mohsve county receive such
advertisement AZ is due her resources.
Our gold mines are rich and able to
take care Of themselves without any
special legislation, while our great silver
mines. although many Of them are
worked now with profit to their owners,
need such just and careful legislation
~ becomes this, ono Of the greatest in
dustriAs Of the western part Of the United
States.
The need Of the country, the necessity
Of trade, the middle and lanoring classes
oi America demand remonetisation OF
silver. and the political party that will
first bring to successful issue the
triumph Of silver, will be the dominant
party VI this republic for many years to
come. II the many signs rs demon.
. rated by the eastern press, political
conventions and demands Of mAnufsc-
turers do not prove false, the silver
mining industry will, in the near future,
receive such q strong. healthful impetus
~ will make the states and territories
dependent on the revival Of silver, places
Of hustle, Of success and o: immense sd-
dition to their population. And Mol,sve
cornty will be one Of the frst localities

silver mines, for their great richness are
known, and the consequence Of capital
seeking our COMFY is fraught with
variety Of advantages.
Mobsve county is depen lent npon the
markets Of California and the Z st for
almost everything consumed in its ter
utory, and the imports Of cereals. Of
provisiohs and everything else necessary
to make life comfortable are in proper
tion to our present limited population,
something enormous. The receipts OF
goods ut the Kingmsn depot are vastly
greater than those ut other places in the
territory supplying q like number Of
people, and our exports Of ore exceed the
Imports IN the amount Of money, which
clearly demonstrates that the balance OF
trade 10 in our favor, and this happy
state exists when the population OF the
county hardly exceeds $500, and when
scarcely one per cent Of our known mines
ere Sorked. II we picture to our minds
eys the activity in this county with
tenfo.d population and onr silver mines
In operation, the necessity dswns npon
our minds that to ,ecome rich and re-
tain our money at home, the activity in
the mines should he shared by the
activity In gri:ultnre and horticulture.
There are hut four Isolated spots in
this county where the hardy tiller of the
soil has created little Edenic spots, but

enough TO furnish the water to make the

more than adequate returns for hit IN.

Of the Sandy could be induced to part
with their acres II they we're offered
prices that would open wide The eyes Of
the eastern Agricultural. We know
that from ten acres Of ground they re-
ceive larger returns than their eastern
brothers derive from Q hundred, and
this is due not alone to the demand for
their excellent staples, but also to the
sublime climate which makes farming
not work but u pastiine in this sun kissed
land. There are thousands ard many
thousands Of the people OF the east
seeking new homes on the Pacific coast,
when they are willing and anxious to
pay from 800 to 81 900 an acre for un-

for the products Of the soil, lands by

doors awaiting cultivation to become
spots Of beauty and Of independent
wealth to their owners. And it becomes
our duty to avail ourselves Of Gods great
