MANY new
CAMPS BLOOMING
According to a Recent Dispatch
From GOIdfieId

Frank M. Ish and Sol Camp have re-
turned from an auto trip among h
newer camps of the north. They left
Goldaeld the fore part of last week and
visited Manhattan, Cloverdale, Lun-
ming, and Hoes Springs, thence TO
E~apleville, Fairview, and Eastgate, re-
turning via Austin and Round Noun
tain. Both gentlemen speak in very
high terms of these camps.
"Fairview," says Mr.. Ish, sis a win
ner. There is one enormous mine in
that Nevada Hills property. The
Wingfeld ground looks good, the Ridge
and Mclaughlin, Scott and Ammann's.
One might name a score that promise
to be big things. Of course very little
work has been done, but the camp
promises to be a big producer.
cat Eastgate | Jaw some prospects
where extremely good paintings were
had right from the surface. No work
has been done on them so that it is diff
fcult to predict for the future, but the
surface showings are there. The prin
cipal prospects are in the hands O.
ranchers who will not develop and ar
slow to sell. This impedes progress.
Captain Mernardi and associate
have opened several veins at Lodi
about 40 miles south of Fairview. Tn
samples displayed in Fairview wer
rich in free gold, although it is said tn
veins are small. This old Lodi distric
was worked years ago and an old smell
er can still be seer on the ground. Car
tain Mernardi stated that he has mad
25 locations and could show ore on all.
A significant fact Mr.. Ish points OF
is that here and at old Eagleville, whic

the ground has not been half pro
pected. Immense bodies of miner
wealth that have lain untouched ar
inspected are in fair way to be turnt
into money. There is no doubt thi
these places will be producers. +"
