PATRONIZE YOUR STATE
PAPERS,.

Why the people of Nevada allow
themselves to be relieved of their
coin by the Pacific Coast Miner is
inconceivable. That paper is now
writing up Humboldt county citizens
at good price per head, and for
what object? Simply that the pro
prietors, Calkins Brothers, may fill
their pockets. Is not the Silver
State-a worthy paper that has ad-
vocated the interests of Humboldt
county since l870-entitled to the
money that is going to this California
sheet Calkins Brothers have found
a gold mine in the big hearted Neva-
dams, and in the language of the
street, they amt doing thing to
them This State has good mining
journal the Nevada Miner Give the
money to that paper and it will pub
fish special edition that will do more
good than all the foreign publications
in existence The BONANZA will in a

results will be greater to this district

GREATEST MINERAL
Zone IN The WORLD.
Hon. {. D. Van Duzer Gives His Opinion
Of This District for The Benefit
Of the Bonanza Readers.

The BONANZA requested Hon. c. d.
Van Duzer, speaker of the House
at the last session of the Nevada
Legislature, who paid Tonopah IA
visit last winter and has just re-
turned here and made very careful
examination of the district, to give
his opinion of Tonopah Mr.. Van
Duzer, who is editor of the Nevada
Miner, mining journal of much i'm
pOrtance to this State, has complied
with the BONANZA request with the
following article
THE improvement in Tonopah since
January has been marked The air
of confidence stimulating the people
certainly shows great faith in the
future of the camp. | believe Tono-
pah is the center of the greatest
mineral zone in America. Standing
on the top of Mt Oddie the eye can
cover a stretch of country embracing
portions of Nye, Esmeralda, Lincoln
and Lander counties, territory
which has produced in the past about
S275, 900, 600 Within one year | ex-
pect to see 5000 people here, and
in five years $4,000
IF one will study the history of
mining eXcitements, it is evident that
Tonopah is simply wonder. Her
first years production far exceeds
that of any mining discovery the
world has ever known. Virginia City
was eight years old before she pro
duced s., 900, 900 Cripple Creek was
six years old before she produced
that amount. Creole, Leadville and
Butte never made the showing in
their first years that Tonopah has,
Not only has So, 900, 900 been taken
out, but SIS, 900, 900 is in sight. The
outside world hardly appreciates the
richness of this district While multi
tudes are risking life, limb and health
in their efforts to reach Thunder
Mountain, looking for rainbows, OPP
portunity and fortune await the poor
man and the capitalist in the vast
territory tributary to Tonopah.
Il believe that rich strikes will be
made to the west of town in the near
future, which will insure "a large city
here. The growth is slow and sub
stantial and one that means a per
manent development. Nevada ought
to welcome the discovery of Tonopah,
for it has contributed more to the
States development and done more
to re-establish confidence than any
factor in twenty years.
THE Mizpah is certainly the great
est mine ever discovered in the West
and | would not be surprised to see
it produce 500, 600, 900 in the next
ten wears.

HE'S 4 PREVARICATOR.

Billy Booth wants the State capitol to be
moved to Tonopah ana In the same breath be-
rates the Carson people because they do not
subscribe for the BONANZA.
The writer of the above lnes-Wm.
Gottwaldt, in the Reno Journals
usual had about thu ee jolts too many
in his guzze when he scratched off
the above article. The BONANZA had
an editorial last week saying that
were the State capitol removed to
Tonopah, the non-water drinking
officials would be right in clover
The BONANZA has no reason to
berate the Carson people for not
subscribing for this paper. They are
not of the nickel class. Thirty
copies of this paper are taken in
Carson, while Reno has generously
subscribed for one.

STOCK EXCHANGE.

A meeting was held at the Office of
H. c. Cutting Wednesday evening for
the purpose of organizing stock
exchange in Tonopah. Twenty-four
of our most prominent citizens who
are interested in mining properties
in this district were present, and
Mr.. Joseph was elected chairman and
Mr.. Cushman secretary of the meet
ing.
1t was decided to incorporate
under the laws of Nevada with a
capital stock of s.. 600, most of which
was immedia tel subscribed for by
those present The following are the
trustees for the first six months !:
Frank Butler, Thomas Lynch, H. C.
Cutting, Joe Joseph and Thomas Ken
dali. A suitable building will be
erected and business commenced at
once.
There are fifteen mining companies
in this district operating valuable
properties, and frequent requests
are made for stock in these com
panies. The stock exchange will be
great convenience to those buying
and selling stock, and will be a
medium through which deserving
properties can raise money for devel
opment purposes. 1t will also show
to the outside world what the citizens
of Tonopah, who are best acquainted
with the real facts, believe to be the
value of the various mining proper
ties in this district.

Everybody seemed to be in a happy mood
