A Notable Visitor.

Among the visitors in Tonopah this
week was Ernest A. Stent, than
whom, perhaps, no mining man is
better known throughout the United
States. Mr.. Stent was once owner
of the Jumper mine in Tuolumue
county, California, located in the
town of Stent, which was named for
him. He was in this state in the
early days of mining in Nevada, was
a figure in the Eureka, Phoebe and
and Tuscarora excitements.
In recent years he acquired the
great Dolores mine in Old Mexico,
which has up to the present time
turned out a fortune for him. An
attempt was made to buy this won
derful property from him, but he
would part with only one-half Of
it, which went to an English syndi-
cate. He remarked that he had sold
everything else which he had acquired
but that this looked so good to him
that he would hold a half interest in
it.
During his stay here Mr.. Stent
went through the Montana mine and
pronounced it one of the greatest
deposits of high grade ore that he
had eve seen. On his first trip to
this section he went into the Gold.
field district and also into Bullfrog.
He bought some property in the
latter place, but owing to the imper.
lection of the title, the deal fell
through.
Mr.. Stent expressed himself as
very favorably impressed with the
district and there is hardly a doubt
that he will return and become largely
interested in this camp, Goldfeld or
Bullfrop.

tate to buy any of them.
The greatest opportunities now Of
fered to small investors are the stocks
of companies owning properties in
the new districts, which are just be-
ing opened up. Take for instance,
Silver Bow, Kawich, Ida, Manhat-
tan and Eden. There are mines at
these places discovered within the
past few months, which lave caused
those who are most prominently iden-
titled with mining in this state to
make heavy investments. Thoy have
sent experts out to make careful ex-
aminations and have invested their
money. This should be a sufficient
6 tide 10 tfose who wis1 to make
snail in estments to put 5he'r money
in. Follow the men who have a
knowledge Of mining: men who have
been successful, and men who are
honorable. They may possibly err in
judgment, but you have a better
chance by putting your money into a
mine with men of integrity and abili-
ty, with poor values, than you have of
making money out of a rich mine
with poor management.
Now is the time to buy mining
stocks. Orders are increasing daily,
and prices are advancing. Don't wait
until prices are double, and then re-
proach yourselves for not having
made your investments earlier. Poor
men are being made rich every day
IN and about Tonopah, by small in
vestments in mining stocks. The
same opportunities are open to you.
Let me invest a few dollars for you
and | will make you money. Inter
est yourselves in Tonopah, Goldield
and southern Nevada mining stocks.
The greatest opportunities are open
II you care to take advantage of them.

Fourth Visit Of President OF the
Nevada Power Company.

\ 7. j.. Campbell, president of the
Nevada Power and Light Company,
arrived in town Wednesday morning
from Denver, his home, and win re
main here several days. This is Mr..
CampbelIs fourth visit to Touopah,
his last having been in March of this
year. He is greatly surprised at the
growth of the town, and ia eonversa-
ton with a BONANZA representative
said. "You certainly have o won.
derful camp and a wonderful people.
| see stone business buildings going
up in every direction and also
splendid homes aud | understand that
the money that is paying for them is
the proceeds of your mines. That is
evidence of the permanency of your
camp and the faith the people who
have made money in the mines have
in it.
"As to our power plant, we ex-
pect to have it in operation some
time next month. We will have an
abundance of power, which will be
furnished to the mines of Tonopah,
Goldfeld, Silver Peak and other
places along the line between here
and Bishop Creek
Mr.. Campbell recently returned
from a two months trip to the Klon-
dixie and states that the production
of the great placer mines in the
vicinity Of Dawson this year will be
less than half of what it has been in
former years, but that Fairbanks, to
which half Of the population OF Daw-
son has stampeded, will yield in the
neighborhood of So, DOC, 900.

MAGILL'S MARKET LETTER
The Weeks Movement i'm Stocks
and Work in the Mines.

Tonopah, New, Aug. 18th, 1905.
The LIST of September no doubt,
marks the beginning of the period
when investors turn their attention to
mining stocks, and the strength of
the market this week, certainly bears
out this presumption. The stock of
every company in Tonopah which
owns mines that are shipping ore has
advanced materially, and this is a
very strong indication that the period
of activity in the stock market is APP
preaching, and that prices have been
sent up by the increased number of
orders, which have been placed by
those desiring to get in early before
the fall trading begins. While this
is true only of Tonopah stocks, / pre-
dict that within the next week or
two Goldield, Bullfrog and other
southern Nevada stocks will like
wise advance.
There are in the neighborhood of
500 men working in the shipping
mines of Tonopah, and these mines
are shipping about 1000 tons a week
on the average. No ore is shipped by
any mine at present which runs less
than $50 per ton, and the value OF
the shipments at this time according
to these figures amounts to 100000
at a minimum, and as much of the
shipping ore goes up into the humid
reds, together with the large amount
of milling r that is being placed
upon the dumps, 1t is safe to say that
the mines Of Tonopah are producing
half a million dollars a week, and
this will be increased as work pro-
crosses. There is not a mine in To-
nopah which is shipping ore whose
stock valuation at the present prices
is not considerably less than the ac-
tual intrinsic value of the mine.
based upon the estimates of value of
the ore in sight. These mines include
the Tonopah of Nevada, Tonopah Ex-
tension, Belmont, Montana, Midway,
Golden Anchor, Jim Butler, Nc
Namara, Ohio, North Star and West
End. These are good solid invest
ments for those who are seeking re-
turns in the way of good substantial
dividends, and you should not hest

OFFICIAL PAPER OF NYE COUNTY.
LARGEST CIRCULATION IN TONOPAH
ATTACKS.

A Tonopah sheet that is evidently
sore because ii cannot run the Board
Of County Commissioners, takes de-
LIGHT in ''roasting" the gentlemen
who comprise 1t at every opportunity.
Last Tuesday, the paper in question
said that the Commissioners were
unwilling to do the essential act Of
governing the city Of Tonopah" and
then proceeded to tell them what to
do and how to do 1t.
THE BONANZA, as well as as every
fair. minded citizen of Tonopah, be
lieves that the present board of
County Commissioners is the best
that the county has ever been bless
ed with and that Messrs. Cuddy,
Locke and Rogers are honest men,
who have the interests of the tax.
payers and citizens at heart at all
times. Since taking Office, seven
months ago, they have enacted many
reforms and retrenchment in the
county expenses has constantly been
their watch word. Those who are
ever read to criticize, should investi-
gate and learn the true facts before
making charges against public Of
6cials who are endeavoring to do
what they consider to be for the
best interests Of the people they
represent. The commissioners have
had no money available with which
to do anything for the benefit of
Tonopah. There is not and never
has been, a fund for TOnopah and
the only money that could have been
used for s~prinkling the streets of
Tonopah, was that in the Tonopah
road fund of which $475 has been
used already and there is but a little
more than that amont remaining at
the present time.
On August 1st., there was Just
500 ,655. l6 in the county treasury, of
which there was in the hospital fund,
$50, 1878. 80; Tonopah school house,
$l5, 900; school interest fund, $500;
school principal, $506. 10; school
mortgage, SO, 517. SO; Judges salary,
$I39: and emergency So, 516.26, leav-
ing but $l7, 09l.S4 in the general
fund and none of these monies are
available for the purposes of Tono.
pah. The commissioners receive no
compensation for their services on
the Tonopah governing board, except
the undeserved abuse Of the afore-
mentioned newspaper.
or course they and the people Of
this community understood the
animus ~actuatlng the ~unwarranted
attacks and pay no attention to
them. in fact they consider the source,
which is enough said.

An Important Meeting.

The executive committee of the
Board of Trade met with the county
commissioners on Monday night in
the offices of the State Bank 81 Trust
company. One of the objects ac-
complished at the meeting was the
withdrawal of the contract for
sprinkling the streets.
The commissioners declared that
If there was no money to pay for the
s%prinkiiug the water wagon would
have to cease its perambulations,
aud as the committee could not see
its way clear for levying a tax, it was
decided that there would be no more
laying of the dust. So, since Tues
day last the wind and dust have been
allowed to have their way through
Main street and Brougher venue
There a considerable agitation
regarding the sanitation of the town,
Committeeman Harry f. Sheldon

been done in the way of enforcing
health regulations since the epidemic
OF spring.
Assistant DISTRICT Attorney BeVlnS
stated that the county commissioners
had passed an ordinance relative to
the removal Of garbage and that he
was only waiting for a complaint in
the matter to proceed against the
violators of the law.

BIG BOOM FOR ToNoPAH.
'sJOurnal of Commerce." to Issue
Special Railroad Edition.

The San Francisco daily journal
of Commerce : is getting up a special
edition 10 connection with the advent
of a through train from San Fran
cisco to Touopah on the broad gauge
track. The journal Of Commerce =
has had its special correspondent,
Mr.. Joseph S. Jordan, located in
Tonopah for more than three months,
aud has given close attention to all
the mining camps of southwestern
Nevada. TIE news sent out from the
various districts has been accurate
and thoroughly reliable and has
gained for the journal Of Commerce
a standing throughout the United
States, second to no paper published
anywhere outside the district.
THE result has been that the
journal" is an accepted authority
on the mining camps of southwestern
Nevada, and is in demand in financial
and commercial circles. The special
railroad edition can be relied upon to
contain a fund of interesting infor-
nation, judging from the attitude it
has assumed in the past; and its pub
lication ought to result in one OF the
biggest booms Tonopah and the adj
%jacent districts have ever exper-
fenced. To the journal of Com
MERGE is certainly due the support
of the entire community, for it has
been one of the best advertising
mediums the camp has ever known.
The issue will make its appearance
about AUGUST Goth.

THE BROAD GAUGE TRACK

The welcome news of the laying OF
the broad gauge track between
Sodaville and Tonopah is told in an
other column. Within q few days at
most, a through train will be running
from San Francisco to Tonopah
direct.
This will mark a new era in the
history Of Tonopah-the greatest
the camp has ever known. In point
Of significance it will mean to the
narrow gauge road what the narrow
gauge meant to the old stage line
that hauled the pioneers into Tono.
pah.
Where eight or ten people came in
on the stage n hundred came in on
the train. 1t is not impossible that
the same ratio will be followed out
after the advent of the through
train. Capital will find the way into
camp easier, and this means the
opening up Of new districts and the
development Of properties which
have ain neglected for proper sup.
port. II means also that low grade
ores can be shipped or worked at
home, for mining machinery and sun.
Plies VIII De brought into Tonopah
at a lower rate Of freight, and the
freight out will also be reduced.
Heavier ore shipments will follow.
more men will necessarily be EN-.
ployed IN the mines, and Tonopah
should see, TINS fall the biggest boom
the camp has ever experienced.
All success and haste TO the
through train to Tonopah.
