THE new CAMP OF BULLION
Has Promising Prospects and
Mining Men Say They Will
Make Productive Mines.

Bullion, located 25 miles south of
Beowawe in Eureka County. is the latest
camp to attract attention in the mining
world, says the Reno Journal. Frank
Curieux, who owns the store. hotel and
other business enterprises of Beowawe,
was in Reno last week to secure supplies
to meet the increased demand occasion
ed by the rush now on from Beowawe
to the camp.
Bullion is going to be n of the
greatest camps in Nevada" said Mr..
Curieux. ALREADY it has a population
of 100 and buildings are going mp rapid
ly. A carload of lumber has been sent
from Beowawe within the past ten
days. Already the camp has six proper
ties taking out shipping ore. Some are
shipping and all will be within a short
time.
"The Ed Harper property is making
a great showing. This ground was re-
Gently bonded by Colorado parties. A
depth of IL feet has been attained on
the ledge and stringers have been en-
countered that assay as high as 5000, 00O
to the ton. The main ledge assays up
in the hundreds. The Gutenberg prop
erty is also one of the shippers and rich
ore is being taken out. On the Gold
Quartz rich ore is now on the dump and
shipments have been made. They are
now working on ore assaying $500 to the
ton. This property was recently bond
ed by Butte. Montana, capitalists.
Towusife Has Been Laid Out.
"a townsite has been laid out and a
number Of lots have already been sold.
DIR. Hennessey Of Reno is among those
heavily interested in the townsite as
well as a number of mining properties
there. He is associated with Goldfed
parties.
lit is probable that an automobile line
from Beowawe to Bullion will be es-
tablished within the next few weeks.
According to Mr.. Curieux. the travel in

NEVADA PRESS
Noted Tax shirker,s False Plea.

The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany is calling upon the State to aid it
against troubles it had with the Workers
of the World 10 Goldfield, urging that
it is a heavy taxpayer in Nevada.
The question of taxation does not en-
ter into the right of any corporation or
individual to have the full protection of
the law.
The taxpayer and the n~on-taxpayer Is
entitled alike to legal protection under
cirtain circumstances. The plea of the
Western Union that it pays heavy taxes
is simply ridiculous.
1t pays ON about 800 a mile for its
lines through the State, and nothing ON
its business. 1t is n notorious tax
shirker and its telegraph service is as
VIGOROUSLY poor as its reputation as a
tax dodger. 1t never allowsa an Assessor
to inspect its books, aud in reality 1t
pays less taxes on its income than any
corporation in the State.-The Carson
Appeal.

S. P. CUTS ITS NEVADA RATES
Four Instead of Five Cents a Mile
to Be Paid for Passage
After July LIST.
San Francisco chronicle, June 70.

San Francisco Chronicle, June IL.
Rumors which have been current in
local railroad circles to the effect that
the Southern Pacific contemplated a
a decided cut in passenger rates to
points East were confirmed yesterday.
1t was announced by a high official of
the company that this lowering of fares
would be brought about by a reduction
n the rates in the State of Nevada.
After July | the mileage rate in that
State will be reduced by a clear cut Of
20 per cent. This will mean that 4
cents per mile will be charged OF all
lines of the company in Nevada after
that date, as against q prevailing
schedule of 5 cents.
Information about the cut was given
out after a conference of the passenger
officials in the Ferry building yester-
day afternoon. 1t is understood that
this reduction has been contemplated
by Passenger Traffic Manager Fee
aud other officials Of the line for some
time, in fact, ever since Nevada began
its era of phenomenal prosperity some
two years ago. Prior to that time it
was a well known fact that local pas
senger business of the Southern Pacific
in that State was the lightest per mile
of railroad of all the States of the
Union in which its cars run.
1t is thought hat the lower pas
senger rates in Nevada will have the
effect of reducing to an appreciate ex-
tent all other passenger rates to the
East of competing lines which feed
into the State.

Big MERGER At 1ONOpAH
All Important Mines of the Camp
to Be Consolidated in One
Company.

Tonopah. the oldest, most substantial,
aud generally considered the greatest of
the rich southern Nevada mining
camps, is to become practically a me-
company town, a merger of nearly all
the big companies operating there being
planned. This nouncemen is made
by the Tonopah Sun, which says:
A movement has already been started
to consolidate the Tonopah Mining
Company, the Tonopah Extension,
the Tonopah Belmont, the Montana
Tonopah, the Midway and the Jim
Butler. The only shipping mines of
Tonopah that will remain out of the
huge company as it is at present pro-
jected. are the West End. the Mac
Namara and the North Star.
This gigantic merger means an al
lance to a great extent of the Schwab
interests and those of the Tonopah
Mining Company as represented by
Brock and associates. All of the con-
trolling factors of the various companies
which are parties to the consolidation,
are favorable to the merger.
Each of the mines involved, ave the
Jim Butler, is a payer of dividends,
and all save the Montana and the Jim
Butler pay them quarterly.
While the result will be that one
company will control all but three of
the paying mines OF the camp, it is as
serted that a great deal more ore will
be mined, shipped and treated than
under the present individual system of
ownership.
