SURVEYOR GEMERAL'S s
REPORT.

Nevada could produce and manu-
facture every article it consumes, with
perhaps, the exception OF tea and cof-
fee, and is capable of supporting ten
times its present population, but its
wonderful mineral resources have in
times past commanded attention to
exclusion of every other resource.
Fortunes have 80 often been made in
few months or years in mining that
public attention has centered in that
direction and very small percentage
Of the people who came to Nevada did
SO with the intention of making a per-
manent home. People came here to
get rich, and, when fortune favored
they returned to some of the great
money centers of the world and carried
with them the wealth, which, if inves-
ted in the State whence it came, would
have made Nevada the pride of the
Union.
The Mackay cable and the postal tele-
graph were constructed with money dug
eat of the Nevada mines by Nevada cit
izens. One Of the largest and costliest
buildings in New York city, or perhaps
in. the world, was erected with funds
derived from Nevada enterprise by D. o.
Mills, who recently duplicated the struct-
ure in San Francisco. The Palace and
BALDWIN hotels, Grand Opera House,
New California Theater, blocks OF stores
and warehouses and scores Of costly res
licences in San Francisco, Oakland and
elsewhere in the United States and
Europe, have been built with Nevada
money. Port Costa warehouses and
docks, great newspapers. vineyards, or
chards, wheat fields and many other
great enterprises in California, have
been inaugurated and completed with
Nevada money.
Ii the $500, 200, 900 OF gold and silver
taken out OF Nevada mines had been in
vested ut home, the waters of the Car
son, Truckee, Walker and Humboldt
rivers would not now be flowing to
waste.
II Congress would favor Nevada one
hundredth part as much as 1t does New
England, there would be no cause for
complaint about its scant population. 1t
affords no protection to anything we
produce. 1t closes the mints against our
