PROSPEROUS CHURCHILL.
Lieutenant Governor Alien Predicts
Its Future.

Lieutenant Governor Allen was in
his city yesterday, having returned
from a trip to the ranch in Churchill
county at the Sink Ct the Carson
Lem thinks and states that this sec
ton Of the world leads the earth, and
from the way he states his beliefs,
one is lead to believe with him.
'Hcw's the ranch?" is asked him
Great" is the reply. You folks
up here haven't any alfalfa like
ours; why, down our way it is up to
the belly Of a horse and still grow
ing There is going TO be a great
crop down our way. The fact that the
Carson river is running bank full Is
what makes it. Give us water and we
can give the world all the hay that
I is needed. It's the best soil in the land
and we have fine crops in sight.
The frost has kept its hands off SO
| far and fruit, grain and hay is in evil
dence in every direction. 1t is a great
season so far and we are going to
have splendid crops and that's the
truth.
You folks up this way will be CIV
ing Churchill all kinds of puffs before
long all on account of the mines that
are coming out and they promise
some big things. The new find near
| Eagleville is a wonder. Senator Will
liams is Interested and those who
know say that the mines are worth
more than his sheep and they are
worth several dollars. as some OF you
people know. That iinu was made by
a Sheep herder and it takes some one
OF HIS kind % 90 pIUddins over such
! hills The ledge matter has been ira
ceG for over $1,000 feet and the aver
age assays viii warrant the construc-
ten of smelters. Of course this land of
wealth is far from civilization, or it
would have been uncovered before. 1t
is sixty miles from the nearest point
on the S. p. and about thirty miles
from the narrow gauge. The distance
won't make any difference, as was de
monstrates at TOnopah 1t certainly
looks like a big affair.
These are not the only mines in
p Churchill. DIS others are known Of, and
: they are showing up exceedingly well
am personally interested in a couple
!, OF mines that working results have
/ shown that they will pay. We are do
+ ing our work in quiet way, but il
. the end showing will be made tina
t viii astonish the people. The Church
t iii mines are all right
ei Then there is Olinghouse. 1t ism
I in Churchill, yet it is close enough t.
l. be d benefit and some OF the riches
$ ore in this State is being taken Gu
5 of the canyon. The new company tina
5 has gone into thaat place means blu
= siness and since they took the pre-
Il perry they have cashed i'll severa
l. thousand dollars worth of gold bui
lion. The possibilities Of it are hardl
G known. The mining so far is only SUI
e face digeino-. ana Vet it has melted
3 fortune 20 a number Of men who hav
followed mining in that district.
when the new blood gets fir
loId. the people viii see Olinghous
the best camp in the State, as the va
- ues are all gold and that isn't at
discount.
over at Fallon, the new count
seat, there is some pretty lively d'
ings. New houses are going up, ne
places of business are being install
IL ed. and with all, the new court hous
st is to be built, and it is going to be
is handsome edifce. Fallon will be
70 city before the people know it, as TT
new ditch that the government is SUI
veying will supply plenty OF water al
IS that will bring in the people. Churc
i'll is a coming county and her futu
is the brightest Of any of the cou
ties that | know Of
