Opening Of the Orient.

The Orient is opening to a tu-
ture of which the world has scarce
ly dreamed. The ten million in
habitants of the Philippines, under
the strong, just rule of the United
States and the inspiring energy of
American enterprise, are about to
enter on an era of trade and wealth
hitherto unknown. Already the
imports and exports have swelled
far beyond the records OF the most
prosperous days of Spanish rule,
and the invigorating effect of
American capital and energy has
scarcely begun to be felt. But a
future vastly greater than that of
the Philippines is found in the
aw wakening of China. Here we
find mass of potential production
equal to that of Europe. Four

are to be found within the limits
of the ancient empire; industrious,
adaptable, initiative, needing only
the inspiration of modern life to
develop the wants and productive
ness of the western nations. No
body who knows the Chinaman
will doubt his capacity for con-
sumption as we'll as production.
The Chinaman is renowned for his
frugality, but in prosperity Is ready
to enlarge his expenditures. Japan
has shown what an Oriental nation
can do when it is brought under
the inspiration of western ideas.
1t has already developed foreign
commerce of a value of two hun
dred and fifty million dollars a
year, which is rapidly increasing.
China with ten times the popula-
ton would, under the same con-
ditions, support a foreign COM
merce of two billion five hundred
million dollars. Earle Il. Wal6oH,

from near the surface, makes this
one of the notable mining districts
of the world. Time and develop
ment will be required to determine
the lateral and vertical distribution
uf the values there stored, but 1t
may be said OF the neg district of
Tonopah. as of varsous Nevada
districts that were similarly rich in
the early days of their career that
where SO much wealth is displayed
near the surface there is a promise
| Of fairly permanent values at
greater depth.
One of the most promising fea-
lures of the mining. situations II
Nevada is the assurance that there
will speedily be built across east
ern and southern Nevada new
transcontinental railway that will
open up great mineral region
hitherto so badly handicapped by
lack of transportation facilities.
During the past year very
great number of investments in
Nevada mining properties have
been made in districts scattered
throughout the length and breadth
of the State and there has been
accomplished more development
in new and reopened mines than
in any year for generation past.
There has also been. more activity
in prospecting all over the State,
and especially in the southern
part, than ever before.

Nevada has resuBed her place
! rs one of the leading mining States
of the Union and as one of the
lchief fields to which American and
| foreign mining capital is turning
4 in search Of opportunities for legiti-
mate investments. says the Pae7f,
Coast i. s,..tex
This State comprises one Of the
worlds great mineral regions-one
that has been much greater in the
past than now and one that will be
much greater in the future than
now. The general feature of its
current mining story is the new
lift that has come to its mining in
dustry in large measure and with.
great promise for the immediate
future. 1t is, perhaps, peerless
among the sister States of the
Union in its wealth of mineral re-
sources, and it has the advantage
of being situated squarely in the
path of the great forward move
ment of industrial and commercial
progress-an advantage which,
happily supplements the greater
one of the possession of wonderous
stores of mineral wealth that many
generations will not exhaust.
Nevada has made many stirs in
the mining world. She began max
ing such stirs in the early sixties,
when district after district display
ed superficial wealth in the prec-
ious and economic metals and ex-
perienced the "rushes" character
istic of the times. Its homes have
not all been ephemeral, but, on the
contrary, some of Nevada's mining
fields have risen to greatness
among those of earth. The mere
mention Of the Comstock Lode
suggests one of the greatest stories
of the mining world, and so great
was the record of the Comstock in
the palmy days of its career that
it obscured the records of other
great but lesser mining fields OF
the State that produced so many
millions.
The Eureka district is today
almost forgotten, but its precious
metal record reaches into the scores
of millions, and other fields, like
that of Esmeralda county, have
made records reaching into the tens
of millions of dollars.
Nevada is in truth mineral
empire, lying fairly in the heart OF
the great richly mineralized region
of western America. 1t is wholly
within the Great Basin consisting
of an elevated plateau ribbed with
several parallel mountain ranges
In the beginning of Nevada min
ing silver was King, and Nevada
will always be one of the impor
tant silver-producing regions o
world, but now attention has main
ly turned to gold and the yellow
metal is the chief object of most o
the current mining enterprises.
But there are few areas in the
world which present greater va
riety of mineral resources and the
westward advance of civilization
will in the future give large in
dustrial importance to the deposits
of the economic minerals Will
which the mountains and deserts
of the State are filled. Nevada
early made a record in the pro
duction of copper, lead, borax, salt
sulphur, antimony, etc, and it has
a long list of other economic min
erals. #1,
At the present time the Tono
pah district is the cynosure of the
mining world. The production o

The GreenyiIIe Situation.

The situation at Greenville was
further aggravated Mon d a y
night by an additional break in
the levee below that city few
hundred feet above the LAGRANGE
break. 1t soon washed until it
was three hundred feet wide
and it is now thought that the in
tervening levee between this
break and the first one viii soon
be swept away, which will open
a crevasse nearly a mile wide for
the waters to pour into the delta.
All of Greenville with the ex-
ception of a few business blocks
is under water, which is not of
great depth, however, except in
the low places. The additional
break below the city has caused
the water to rise and the inhabi-
tants are moving into the second
stories in anticipation of more
water
Little loss of life is reported.
The warnings sent out by the
levee boards seem to have pre-
pared the people of the Delta
and they had prepared to save
themselves and their stock.
Last night the situation was not
i'm proved and the water in Green
vile was reported gradually ris-
ing.
