Ell DORADO AT HOME

More and more de we hear Of Ne
vada's fame spreading abroad as a
field for mining ventures and more
and more OF these ventures being
justified by judicious development of
the iimitless mining possibilities of
this State.
Tonopah has become world famous
as the modern Ell Dorado of the earth
and enquiries are received by Nevad-
ans from all points of the globe in re-
gard to that camp.
The mining development of Col
orado in the past ten years serves as
an object lesson of what may be ex-
pected of Nevada If sufficient inter-
est can be kept up in her
and sufficient capital enlisted for her
complete exploitation.
Never in history has there been such
a widespread interest in legitimate
mining projects as may be seen today
by following the press of the entire
civilized world. Foreign capital is
rushing to the Western States and
to South Africa and anywhere, in fact,
where there Is a good outlook for leg
itimate mining investments and Ne
vada, with the showing she is now
making will assuredly come in for her
share of interest and immense amount
of development may be looked for in
the near future.

DEMOCRATIC CHICANERY

Now that the new Democratic State
oficers are installed and sufficient
time has elapsed since ante election
days to forget promises and lose sight
of political obligations it is said that
Ex-Governor Sadler is to be shelved
entirely after what is generally be-
lieved to have been a distinct promise
made him of the Wardenship of the
penitentiary, as a price for his with
drawal from competition for the NOM
ination for Governor.
II one Democrat in the State Is
deserving of consideration at the
hands of his party that man is surely
Sadler as he has done more to hold
his party together and strengthen
it than any other politician in the
State and his turning down will be an
act of political treachery in direct line
with certain phases of the campaign
lately carried on by that boss-ridden
party. Certainly no man will get the
fat plum of Wardenship who deserves
it, from the Democratic standpoint
more than Reinhold Sadler.

IRON AND E TRADE

A treasury statement indicates that
the imports of iron and steel for the
year 1902 reached fully forty million
dollars, which is the greatest value of
imports on this account for many
years. 1t indicates not only the i'm
mense demand in this country for that
kind OF manufacture, but is a guage
to some extent of the cost of the an
thracite coal strike, which diminished
what would otherwise have been the
product OF our iron manufactures.
All the year there was a glut of or
ders that could not be filled, the re-
course was necessarily had to the
product of Europe. But even crippled

~WINNEMUCCA'S NEED

Tonopah has already learned the
value of an efficient fire extinguishing
apparatus. Only a short time ago that
up-to-date camp invested in two chem
ical engines and their effectiveness has
already been tested with the result of
a probable saving of a considerable
amount of property.
This town is sadly deficient in the
matter of a fire fighting force and a
REPETITION of the great fire of 1891 is
a possibility at any time especially in
a dry season or when the water is not
turned on full force.
A chemical engine should by all
means be installed in Winnemucca
and a corps of men kept in training
to meet any possible contingency in
the way of a fire.
