The Anaconda Mine

The option on the Anaconda stock
granted to London capitalists expired
on the 10Th inst. This stock has been
underwri item mt $50 or $50 so
per share, that is. at the rate of $780,
100000 or S36,0O0,O00 for the property
and we belive one of these figures is
that at which it has been under writ
ten, il indeed this has been done.
The experts of the London parties
are now i'll Montana examining the
property, and no doubt that in due
time, if the deal goes through. their
reports will be made public. No
change will be made in the
contrOl, the management or the pol
icy of the company. No desires was
shown 10y the foreign investors to
change these, and the Anaconda will
continue to be the largest producer
of copper i'll the world, and of silver
also, with the exception of the Brok-
ell Hill Company, i'll Australia. The
normal average output is counted at
about 100000 600 of copper per month,
sometimes more and sometimes less,
and the silver amounts to from 115 to
10 ounces, with about an ounce of
gold per ton of copper. With electro
lytic retin ing all the gold and silver
are saved. The amount of Anaconda
stock sold to Messrs, Kuhn. Ioobe 4.
Co. was 100000 at %. The bankers
opened this stock for subscription at
30, and it was taken in an hour, the
Rothschild's taking large amount.
This Is % per cent of the capital
stock of the company. The company
Is said to have produced between IL,

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
Prosperous Nevada.

The Genoa Courier says that the
time will soon come when Nevada
will take step forward and farmers
will be able to borrow enough money
to stock their farms and improve
them; mortgages will be renewed and
extended instead of foreclosed; houses
and residences will he built; mines
will be opened and mills built; and
life will generally put on a greater
activity. A careful inquiry into the
causes Of this period of great depres-
sion and inactivity, will show it to be-
fact that there was great big Of.
fort which followed a very small
cause. Property in Nevada is valu-
able and it will not take the people
over year or two longer to find it
out. Look out for boom along the
Humboldt river, in Carson valley,
Mason valley, Smith valley, Owens
river valley, and the mining country
from Pine Nut to Paramint. All old
timers have seen beef selling at %
cents Il pound. Hay has been sold in
Carson valley as high as $500 a ton,
and it is impossible to get S. ton for
it now. But that does not mean to
say that a good living price will never
again prevail for the products of the
farm in the valley, whether it is sold
in the form of crude product. or
changed into beef, pork, eggs and
poultry. On the contrary, it means
that prices are barometrical. and if
any have touched bottom they must
bound up like ball again.
