Keen the Money at Home.

Some months ago parties from the
east visited Nevada, their main point
being Tonopah, for the purpose of
securing material for a write-up Of
the state n Harper's Weekly.
Harper's Weekly is a well-known
publication and has large circula-
ton, and when the representatives
of that journal appeared in the field
of Nevada and sprang their graft,
many thought it would be of advant-
age to our state to have her resour-
ces set forth to the many thousands
of readers of such a paper as Har-
per's Weekly. They paid, And now
comes the special edition of the
paper. 1t contains some sixteen
pages of matter relating to Nevada
and Tonopah, and some very poor
half tones of different views in the
state. The write-up is very bum
affair, being nothing but a re-hash
of what has from time to time ap-
peared in nearly every paper in the
state 1t is understood that Reno
people are struck TO the tune of
$2, 900 on this deal, while the Tono-
pah folks, not to be outdone, got III
for about $4,000. This much money
spent at home--divided among the
fourteen counties would produce
literature which would give the re-
sources of each county in better
shape and fuller detail than would
ten such write-ups as that in Har-
per's. 1t is just another case of our
citizens believing that they are to
get some good advertising by patro-
nizing outside talent" being willing
to pay good price for it and being
buncoed to the queens taste.-Lyon

COlburn's Success.

According to Tonopah advices R.
L. Colburn, who at one time figured
prominently among the operators on
the Salt Lake Stock and Mining Elk
change, is making quite a success
with the development of the .Tono-
pah- Alpine property, which he has
been experimenting. He has writ
ten to his Salt Lake associates that
he will have car of ore ready for
shipment within the next 20 days,
provided he can get teams to haul
the product to the railroad. There
is such demand for teams in that
part of the country at the present
that they are not only hard to get,
but the owners command pretty stiff
prices. Desert News.

way 10 market The last reports
from there are that they have five
feet Of shipping ore in the winEe on
the 50.foot level.
"The developments In Lone Noun
tain have caused quite little stir
and a number Of new companies are
being formed for the development OF
the properties in that district, a
number of which have very good
showing
"a new company has been formed
by Chicago people to operate a mine
in the Ray district, six miles to the
north of Tonopah. This property
adjoins the Ray & O'Brien, produc-
ing property, and is well located.
Further south is the Grandpa dis
trict, where very fine ore is being
developed, some Of it carrying very
high gold values.
Developments are such that it
would appear as though the Tonopah
camp and the surrounding country
will become a very heavy producer,
and will rival the Comstock and
Cripple Creek districts in production
of wealth, and by great many it is
considered that it will be even
greater"

A New Excitement.

A mining excitement has sprung
up in Pedro City, in Churchill county
about twelve miles southeast of Fair
view and six miles east of Eagleville
The lodges have been traced for over
d mile and the whole country has
been staked off, assays running AZ
per cent in copper, $32 in gold and
Sl2 in silver having been obtained.
The diggings are in rough and rug
ged country, barren of timber and
vegetation, and the nearest water a
distance of eight miles.
