Goldheld, New, June 24.-During
| this period of excitement throughout
| the state over new camps nothing has
| happened 10 interrupt the steady pro,
press of the great mines of Goldfield
and Tonopah. The old producers are
| keeping up In their standard and the
new fields, phenomenal as they are
are developing strength and richness,
| At no time has the mining outlook
| in Nevada licked as roseate as 1t does
today On this evry mining man, from
| the illiterate prospector TO the learned
expert. is agreed,
Perhaps the most important an
Inouncement TO the entire state is that
! iu,t made by President Il. Fl. Harrl.
lman Of the Southern Pacific Railroad,
who has authorized a fiat reduction Of
one cent per mile in passenger rates
beginning July | The significance OF
this reduction is not lost upon persons
acquainted with mining conditions IN
Nevada. II simply means that Mr.
Hartman has come to the conclusion
that Nevada 10 on the map to stoy
that its mining industry has reached
the point where there is no longer any
doubt about the future.
II means that one of the greatest
railroad corporations realizes what the
future holds out, and is getting in
line.
Want Lower Freight Charges.
The one thing that remains now to
Iplace The mining industry Of Nevada
Ifar hevond he slightest doubt Is n
reduction in freight charges Lower
carving charges are demanded by
the mine owners to move the thou
sands OF tons Of low grade ore on the
various dumps TO market, Under the
present high rates only the richest Of
gold ore is being shipped, but even at
this the output Is running high into
the millions.
Tonopah the home of so many bo-
Inanza properties, will have a second
railroad before snow fies. II Is predict
ed. The Las Vegas and Tonopah Rail
road company which is building to
that camp, is rushing construction as
fas Az men and money can DO It and
the only thing that retards matters Is
the question Of assembling building
material on the ground IN sufficient
quantities to keep the thousands of
me1 at work on the line working.
Expect General Reduction
II IS expected that the reductions Of
fered by the Southern Pacific will be
followed bv a corresponding reduction

IThe tariff on this latter road IS con
sidered excessive. a 10 cert a mile
rate now being charged. The south.
Iern part Of Nevada has exceeded the
most sa1guine homes Of railroad build
ers and business has grown 10 such an
extern that the present equipment is
unable TO properly take care Of H.
II is claimed on the best authority thai
the Goldfeld To1opah line has already
lpa'd for itself twice over Moreover.
the more pessimistic do not believe
that any relief can reasonably be look
ed fer until the Gould road reaches
this section. which will not be for ~
least two years In the meantime

by the southern Pacific aud every pos
eible obstacle is being thrown in his
