ADMISSION DAY

Nevada was admitted to statehood on
the 3lst day of October, 1864, and has
since been known as the battle-born
state. 1t came into the Union during
the great civil conflict that came near
dividing the greatest nation on earth.
Its votes wetc east to presetve the
Union una its millions OF dollars helped
materially to preserve the national
credit. 1t would therefore be fitting
and appropriate, as the Carson News
suggests, to celebrate Admission Day,

Nevada's Increase 1000,
900 Last Year

The asnual report OF the geological
survey fof the year OF 1904 has just been
published,
Considerable space is given to the dis
covery and mining d precious metals,
and the report shows that Nevada came
forward last year with one oi the largest
increases in gold production
The report says.
in Nevada the production Of gogd
reached ST, ,O6O, ,494 in 1901, an increase
over the preceding year q 81 1890, n.
Practically the whole of this increase
should be credited to the hew 90 :
Goldfeld. which produced over $500,
600 during the wear. Tho returns from
silver producers indicate an increase q.
1888, ,0lS, of which the greatest part Is
derived from the Comstock mines. 10
nopah remains very productive, with an
output OF about 81 100000 of silver,
commercial value
Colorado added nearly $1,000 600 TO
her pfoduction of 1893, most Of this
amount. coming from the ihines nf

O -"Netada's output is increased about
the same amount, chiefly by reason OF
the phenomenal yields Of the Goldfield
mines"
