With the advancement Of science

ment most desired by capital.
Such ore is now worked with lin
proved methods and in many cases 95
per cent Of The value is saved.

of two eighty-stamp mills on the Chol

The work will be commenced very

CARS0N'S CRYING NEED
Lack of Public Promotion is Her
Worst Enemy.

Carson certainly needs a helping
hand from her citizens. Parties are
continually coming to this city and
asking for Information regarding the
section, and there is little or nothing
to show the inquirer, or any body of
citizens to help them in their search,
A few days ago mining man came
to this city and enquired about pro-
perties that are close to this city. FL
nally he was shown into the Sheriff's
Office and almost accidentally discov-
cred that Fred Knoblock is interested
in a copper mine. This leads to puesti
ons and answers that will do the
county good and may attract atten-
ton to the property spoken of.
This is the state of affairs nearly
every day. Unless the investor hap
pens into the hands of friends, he can
come to this city and go out without
knowing that there is anything in this

State buildings. Hundreds of mining
men have passed through this city
and many of them have paid the town
visit. Hardly one in the hundred
knew that there were any prospects
here or nearby.
Had they been given a chance to
see what Ormsby county and her
neighbOrs in the valley above
can produce there is no doubt but
that some of the cash that has gone
into other sections, would have been
invested here.
In the city Of Reno the people have
taken this matter up Close to the rail
road station they have placed an ex.
hibit of the resOursec of that county
and every stranger who comes or
goes is given chance to see what
| Washoe county can produce, and she
produces a big share. Ormsby has ma
i ny resources, but on a smaller scale
and had the people chance to show
them to the travelling public, it would
/ result in untold benefit to this city.
