.YTAE GOLD RUSH
Thousands Headed for Nevada'e New
Mineral Fields and Finds.

Mineral Fields and Finds.
Every day a hundred or more gold
seekers pass through this city on the
way to the Goldnelds and mineral dis
coveries that have been discovered in
the past few months. The hundreds
that have gone. out have sent the
word forth that the new Nevada camp
is wonder and the news has gone
from one end Of the world to the
other and the rush is on.
A trip to San Francisco is the con-
vincing proof Of the statement. In
every hotel lobby, in every bar room,
in every restaurant and in fact in
every point where men can congre-
gate there il the hum Of news that
Nevada and her wealth offers the for
tune hunters q new field. Both speci-
mems are shown and in fact it does
not take the mineral evidence to set
the people talking.
It IL only portion Of the rush that
is witnessed In this city. Hundreds
Of people are going to and from the
Southern section. Los Angeles Is As
much agog as in San Francisco and ON
the other side down to San Pedro
there is as strong a rushing in. Even
across the borax marshes there is a
string following the trail to the land
Of promise.
One Of the peculiar conditions is
that the boomers who rushed to the
Klondike are now making for South
ern Nevada and the new discoveries.
Yesterday several men who have hade
fortunes in the frozen North passed
through on their way to barren Ne
vada where they will take a hand
/ in the development. Colorado, Mon
tana and all Of the Western states
are taking a hand in the game. with
the result that the most experienced
line of prOspectors that have ever trod
the State are now inside Of the bord-
.rs and will rip uo the mother earth
from its extremes to the Colorado
river.
All kinds of predictions are being
made regarding the future Of the
southern section. all agree that before
the year has passed Nevada will lead
in the production of precious metals.
Every section that has produced metal
is being ransacked for new discover
les, and the result is that camps that
were supposed TO be dead ones are
being revived and placed on the map
again.
In regard to the future population
OF Southern Nevada there is a posi-
bility of it exceeding anything that
has ever taken place in the history
OF the State. Some who seem to be
in a position to Judge the conditions
l state that twenty five thousand people
: will be located in the desert region:
: before tn summer has passed. Thi:
facts of the conditions are looked owe
as every state is now taking an inter
u est and the ventursome and energeti
! are heading for the new finds. Tn
h conditions that rendered the inhab
, tation Of the desert impossible have
il a measure been overcome, from til
fact that railroads have rendered
possible to secure provisions and tn
necessities of life. Water is bein
veloped as the mines exetnd into III
barren regions. AS much attention
paid to this as to the mines. with til
result that where it was believed
; be an impOssibility. water is four
and man then penetrates to the 9th,
unknown section.
, 1t is safely stated that thousant
of miles in Nevada have never bee
. trod over by white men, but this W
not be safe statement inside of
year. Men Of experience are nc
headed for the barren land and mai
of them are backed by cash which w
develope any section in the world,
matter what the conditions.
When the situation is looked ov
it is no wonder that the world h
turned hor financial ovo toward \
vada and the greatest wonder is til
any of the sound and safe people a
keeping outside of the rush that
with them.
