RICHEST MINERAL ZONE
IN the ENTIRE WORLD
Eyes Of All Are Centered on South
ern Nevada.

Take a map showing the dividing
line between Southern Nevada and
California, then draw two parallel
lines, fifty miles on either side, and
you have before you the richest min
eral belt in the world. Not only
does this belt contain mines which
have for years been famous producers
but it also contains more virgin
ground that any other section in the
United States-it is a mecca for both
the prospector and the capitalist.
Starting at the northern end of this
angle state line there is Virginia City.
a camp which in the seventies made
millionaires of such men as Mackey,
Fair, Flood, OBrien, and which is
even today, through the introduction
of modern methods, large producer.
Continuing south there is Hawthorne,
Candelaire and many other camps,
which, like Virginia City have been
for years steady producers.
From Tonopah south to Searchlight
the map shows one endless chain of
new camps. Many of these new
camps will not be found on the map
for they are so young that they have
not yet acquired that dignity. A new
discovery is made, men rush in from
adjacent camps, townsite is laid out
and named, another mining center has
been established and the base of sup
plies, the prospector's and miners
frontier, has been advanced step
further. In this way the length and
breadth of this vast mineral zone is
being explored. Marvel, Searchlight's
railroad terminus, is gradually super
ceeding Tonopah as the favor
ite Quitting point, for the reason
that it is nearer the field of explora-
tion. An incomplete list of the camps
and districts between Tonopah and
searchlight is as follows: Tonopah,
Colombia, Goldfeld, Silver Peak, Gold
Crater, Furnace Creek, Bullfrog
Beatty, Amaragosa, Gold Center,
Montgomery, Sandy, Manse, Good
springs, Ivanpah. Eldorado Canyon,
Knob Hill, Crescent and Searchlight.
Between Gold Crater and Bullfrog
lies Death Valley, a wierd section and
rich in mineral wealth. but a hard
country to prospect. Its lowest level.
near Benefits Wells, is AIT feet be-
low the level of the sea.
This mineral zone, the bulk of
which lies in Nevada, extends on to
the north up into Oregon and to the
south down through Chloride, King
man and Gold Roads into Arizona.
Along the Nevada-C California line it
extends 400 miles. with an average
width of 100 miles. The northern
half has been more thoroughly pros
pected and developed than the south
ern portion. Searchlight today is the
great camp in the southern portion
of the zone.-The Searchlight.

AND STILL THEY GO
TO BONANZA CAMP
More Outfits Start This Week
for Goldreed and Other
Southern Points.

The exodus of Lovelockers to the
southern goldfelds, which begun last
being continued this. Since last week
Geo. w. Ladd has arrived from Bull
frog and is adding fuel to the fame
of the fever with tales Of fortunes
being made.
Among the outfits that have gone
down this week were Tom Barnes and
r. M. Overstreet. who started out
Tuesday afternoon with two wagons
and six horses. They took with them
a wagon fitted up with q large tank
and they expect to go to hauling wa
ter for the new town of Goldreed, and
we believe they have got the surest
gold mine" in sight of any of them.
Bert Stoker is getting ready to go
with his fathers freighting teams to
the gold camps. A syndicate of some
half-dozen prominent men of Love-
lock has been formed and will have q
number of outfits in the field. They
have secured the services of Mr..
Raymond Ray, brother of c. D. Ray
and mining man of long experience
in Utah and the Inter-mountain Sec
tion. ". C. Noteware will go with
Mr.. Ray for a few days, to get things
started, then the matters will be left
in charge of Mr.. Ray.
]. T. Hauskins started on No. 3
Tuesday night, for the new diggins
and many others are planning to start
soon. So they come and go. Some
will, doubtless. return with wealth in
mines discovered, while others will
meet with disappointment and failure.
To show what is being done at the
camp and conditions to be met, we
give extracts from a letter Merritt
Bailey wrote his father, under date
of Jan. 9th:
New camp is showing up fine.
Sold out all of original townsight-
1870 lots-and are surveying more.
Corner lots sold at $l25 and inside
lots at $75. The lots were all sold in
Tonopah. People we're crazy for them
and lined up in the street. waiting
their turn to buy. The townsite peo-
pie took in $25, 900 in less than day,
though none of the purchasers had
seen the ground.
'The main strike is a fine one,
showing free gold all through the
rock. Our claims (the Bailey boy's)
are three-fourths of a mile from the
new strike. We have some big and
good looking lodges, with assays as
high as $40 from the groupings.
''The closest water is l6 miles, ex-
cept the present snow, which is being
gathered in iron wheel barrows and
melted with fires underneath. This
beats hauling it and waiting all day
at the springs to get two. barrels Of
water. There is nut pine and cedar
wood 16 miles distant.
"There are two stores, a restaurant
and saloon in frame tents-all put uF
within three days--others being built
All are living on snow water, which
will soon be gone. until water is STRUCK
in the wells which are being dug FIVE
miles from camp. If the snow
gives out before that time water will
have to be hauled from 80 miles die.
