COUNTY
DIVISION
Former Senator w. NJ. Stew
art Has a Great Scheme, but
1t Will Fail.

Ex-senator VIM. M. Stewart is of
the opinion that Bullfrog should be the
seat of a new county, and expresses
himself rather forcibly in an interview
with the Bullfrog Miner. He says, in
part:
Developments in different parts of
Nye and Esmeralda counties have ere
ated the necessity of a change of coun-
ty boundaries. County seats should be
located as ear as practical in the en-
ties of population, and also in territorial
centers.
"The county seat of Nye comfy is
on the county line. 1t is 200 miles to
the south east end of the county and
nearly as far to the northeast corner.
If the county boundaries must remain
unchanged, the inhabitants of Nye coun-
ty outside Of Tonopah will soon com
mence a struggle for a more central
location for the county seat which will
unsettle business at Tonopah.
"Suppose Esmeralda county were
composed Of that part Of Nye and Els
meralda which lies south of the line be-
tween the second and third range of
townships south of Mt. Diablo base,
and the balance of Esmerada county
were annexed to Nye. That would
place Tonopah in the center of popula'
ton of Nye county.
Eventually, the north part of what
is now Esmeralda might be joined t.
Lyons and a portion of the northeast
part of Nye might be joined to some
other county OF counties, depending
upon the development of the county.
:Esmeralda county might then have
a county seat at Bullfrog which woulC
be equal distance between the extrem
tiles northerly and southerly. 1t il
true the county would be in the shape
of a triangle with the long side on thu
California line, but that portion o
California lying east of Death vale!
at least would trade with Bullfrog, al
though it would not pay taxes in tina
; county.
+ "The two railroads approaching Bull
frog from the south will make it tow
5 of great Importance because there cal
: be no doubt the Bullfrog mining dis
trict is the most extensive, if not tn
4 most important of any in the state
This matter should be considered b,
the people of Nye and Esmeralda coun
ties with a view of the greatest goo,
to the greatest number. Certainly n
e county is benefited by outlying prov
a inees which occasion enormous expens
y in conducting civil and criminal bus
q ness.

Marietta.

George Plant, who is heavily inter.
ested in the old Marietta, now Black
Mountain mining district, is spending
some time in Tonopah. Mr.. Plant
says that the mines Of that district
never looked better than at present.
The old Endowment property is
being operated by Goldfeld capital
lists. This property, which is one OF
the old timers, produced a few million
dollars before it was closed down
several years ago The new owners
are extracting ore from several
drifts.
The Frank Mcguire mine, which
vas recently sold to an eastern com
pany, is also being opened up on an
extensive scale. This is another ex.
cellent property.
The Black Hawk mine is also being
opened up by the Goldfeld people
who are operating the Endowment
A number of men are employed and
the shaft will be continued to a great
depth, There are many other prom.
ising properties in that section, in.
Guiding the Foster, Moho, Black
Diamond and Sandrock, which are al
being developed.

schwaib After More Mines.

Charles M. Schwab is making a
serious effort to secure much larger
holdings in Nevada mines than al
ready controlled by him. Several
weeks ago he took over a majority
of the stock of the famous Montgom
cry Shoshone mine and several other
groups at Bullfrog, and prior to that
time he had enormous holdings at
GolGfeld and Tonopah, and within a
week or ten days has secured an
option on the Clifford mine, in Clifford
district, and later he appeared in
Manhattan, and it is now positively
known that he has agents securing
Nevada in order to obtain 81 per
cent or controlling interest in the
Red Top, Gibraltar and Original
Bullfrog, Mr.. Sehwab has been rec
ognized as a steel magnate in every
thing which that term applies and he
now evidently is determined to oc-
cupy a position in the mining world
positively second to none in the west,
and it is ever claimed that he has al.
ready made, within the past two
years, $25, 600, 600 in his Nevada in
~vestments, and most certainly for 1
tenderfoot in gold mining, this il
doing fairly well.

Look out for Bad Notes.

Many "phoney' blank notes are
floating about Reno and the mer-
chants Of Tonopah should be on their
guard lest they be taken in. The
Journal has the following in regard
to the matter: The limitations of
real money are made up Of split SO
and $50 bank notes, and the work is
most cleverly done. Roulette deal
ers, merchants and bankers have &C.
cepted the currency, only to find out,
to their sorrow, that the paper is nc
good. In the first place, the bank,
Merchants and Planters of G%eotgia,
has no longer any existence, and ii
the second place, the notes are al
split so that one note has really made
two and the "pushers of phoney
money" have doubled up on their en-.
terprise. The fact that the guilty
men are not suspected is evidence o
the skill with which the bad currency
is distributed, and the fact that mel
accustomed to handle much papel
money accepted it, is a sign Of th'
cleverness of the imitation.

The first property to be staked off in
the present district of Goldfeld, and
the most persistent dividend payer of
the region, the Combination mine, has
astonished the natives even with a
strike of recent date. A force of leas-
ers working on the Combination at a
depth of 50 feet have struck a vein of
gold ore that has given enormous values
without any evidences of giving out in
any manner, usually the case of great
values at shallow levels in that district.
Myers & Murphy sold the Combina-
ton mine to Chicago capitalists for less
than 500, 900, the purchase price being
taken from shallow prospecting work
by the fortunate purchasers. A mod
ern and large mill handles the ore, and
in every way the management has
weapons best calculated to do the most
work with the least exertion and ex-
pense.

Invests III Fairview.

George Wingfeld spent several days
in Fairview this week and while there,
purchased several mining properties.
He is particularly impressed with the
district, which he says has a great fu-
ture. Fairview district is attracting
much attention and probably is well
worthy of the honest consideration of
operators. The district is situated IL
miles east of Sand Springs and just
south of the Chalk mountains, an old
land mark in that country and so named
on account of the white appearance OF
the formation.

Represents Guggenhelms.

Samuel Newhouse is believed to be
representing the Guggenheims in his
purchase, last week, OF the CONTROL
ing interest in the Montgomery
Mountain Mining Co. The property
Of the company is in the center of
Charles NJ. Schwab's Bullfrog prop
critics that we're recently merged
into the Montgomery. Shoshone, Sho-
shone-Polaris and the Bullfrog
Crystal, the three merged properties,
aud on the other side by the Shoshone
National Bank property, says the
BulIfrog Miner. The entrance OF
Newhouse into the Bullfrog country
means that Charles NJ. Schwab will
have opposition in his effort to gain
control Of the leading properties Of
thatdistrict. 1t is known that New
house has been for a long while
watching the movements Of Sehwat
in Bullfrog and he has the purchase
Of the Shoshone National Bank ant
other properties in view
