AS TO MANHATTAN PROMOTIONS

The excitement over Manhattan throughout the country calls for a note of
warning
Manhattan appears to be a wonderfully rich camp Its surface ores are
phenomenal and the area quite extensive. 1t has a basis for a boom, but how
permanent it will be, can be determined only with time and development.
AS in other camps, the mine and stock promoter is early on the ground for
business Mining through the cooperative plan is the best, and the stock
promoter is not the least useful factor rim making mining camp provided his
promotions are honest the ground Of prospective value and the right proportion
of the money from stock sales used in development There will be many foa-
lions from Manhattan. The public mind is inhamed and the country is in a
humor to absorb any and all promotions offered. And therein lies the danger
for prohttng by this fact there will doubtless be hundreds of spurious Rotations
of the rottnest and rankest kind. Tt vas 70 with Buldrog, it was SO with
Tonopah, it vas so with Godfeld in the earlier days
It will be the duty of The News to watch for these fraudulent hotatons and
expose them. Of those on the market at this time, while ome are known t5
have merit others are under suspicion. It is too early yet to know their exact
status. The fact that The News is carrying fotaton advertisements does no..
necessarily mean that they have this papers endorsement, but we have taken
the greatest care TO see that no extravagant and untruthful statements are made
in these advertisements so far as we car determine. Last week through an over
sight, ont advertisement was printed which should have been more carefully
edited. No one regretted this more than ourselves, as we wish to protet
our readers to the fullest, An order fol a full page advertisement vas rejected
this week because of its Objectionable tone and phraseoogy, and other advertise.
ments appearing herein have been carefully scanned But al stated above, it is
too early for The News to determine the merits If the various fotatons offered,
and therefore W neither approve nor condemn. But it will not be long before
it is known whether they are worthy OF not, and they viii be treated accord
utmost care and discrimination in choosing their investments in Manhattan
securities. There is good money to be made by getting in right There is good
money II b lost By getting in wrong.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1906-02-02
GoLDFIELD STILL ON THE MAP

Many inquiries have come to The News from all ove the country wanting
Co know if the reports ire true published in several eastern papers to the effect
that Goldfld is being depopulatd by the excitement in some of the more recently
discovered districts. Accompanying the inquiries ire clippings from various
papers telling how Goldfeld is being drained of its population, etc.
For local readers of The News a denial of these reports is unnecessary, but
to correct a false impression abroad it would be well to take cognizance of these
rumors. The mining men and spectators of Godfed are justas eager n divide
awake to opportunities as any people oil earth, and, having prospered witt nut
measure in this camp, are quick 20 take a chance in others that my sprint up.
This was the case with Bulfrog and it is the case with Manhattan. Goldfed
operators got in early in both Camps, and have acquired the choicest of the
camp. o. the town of Godhed IS the base of operation In fact these very men
TO- and always shall be the center of mining activity for this entire region. The
bestm mines are here the biggest operators are here and the only mining exchange
is here. Consequently most Of the business of Southern Nevada will be trans
acted from this point
It is true, n fortunately true for Goldfeld, that the Manhattan excitement
has drained the town and camp of its fotsam and jetsam-it surplus and unem-
ployed population, and the local situation is greatly improved thereby. There IS
a n element in every mining district that is never at rest, shifting as the sands If
the desert rushing hither and thther with every new excitement. This element
does not include real mining and business men, but 'camp followers the adj
venturers the spectators, gamblers and ''shoeuing' men,, who only follow the
crowds to make a quick cleanup and get tut to the next scene of excitement.
This is he element that has rushed from Goldfeld to Manhattan, and Goldfeld
shouts a vocihrous farewell
AS to the camp and town of Goldfeld, better conditions never prevailed. The
camp is being more actively developed than evr before. More new strikes are
being made moe ore produced, mere men 1t work, more money coming Tin than for
many months. The camp is just getting it's second wind and everyone feels
encouraged and jubnant over the outlook. The town itself is IN a better condi-
ton thar at anytime during its history. Business is down to a solid foundation,
and business men say that trade is improving greatly over the fall and summer,
Collections are good, and the banks now have greater deposits than at any other
time in the camps history, while the postomce receipts are at the highest notch.
Godfed is still on the map and will be- long after many of the latest booms
are only a memory. Tt is content with itself and at peace with all its neighbors;
but we naturally do object to the boomers of Manhattan OF any other camp send
ing out false reports that it may profit at our expense

News from old Ndontezuma this week would seem tt point to a splendid

"Neither a borrower
nor a lender be;
For loan oft loses both
itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the
edge Of husbsndry."
-Shakespeare.
Shakespeare,

RwAD GOOD POLONIUS lived in
our time, this utterance OF
- y his might indicate that he
had been a sufferer from bad invest
ments; never the-less, there is an
element Of truth in It that can be
applied to our day and generation.
II takes a ripe experience to make
a borrower and a lender harmonic.
A good lender does not wish TO be
parcelled off with a poor borrower.
This is where we come in. There
are numerous things to be considered
in the application for a loan, and
we know there are two that are
most important: the first is the Sc
curity back Of the application; the
second the ability OF the borrower to
pay interest and ultimate principal.
These two requirements we always
insist upon. No matter how good
the security may be, If the ability
Of the applicant to pay interest and
ultimate principal is doubtful. we
will have nothing whatever to do
with II.
our experience in negotiating
mortgage loans has made us faml-
lar with that field, and we have con-
stantly on hand applications for gilt
edge loans paying from four per
cent. to six per cent.
We place loans that do not de-
fault, and I'm addition draw up all
legal papers Incident thereto, under
legal supervision. and in a manner
that precludes technical possibilities.
A special point Of ours is to be abso-
lutely sure as TO validity Of bor-
rower's title.
