A CINNABAR
DEAL CLOSED

Charlie Patrick, one of the pioneers
of Manhattan, came into town Monday
to close a deal involving the sale OF a
valuable cinnabar property, which he
located last month in the Jefferson
Canyon district near Mariposa noun
tain. The buyers and the figure at
which the property changes hands have
not been made known, but it is believed
that the price runs we'll into five figures.
The rock is of a very high grade, aver
aging from % per cent to rs per lent
cinnabar, and the ledge is six feet wide.
Mr.. Patrick retired to Manhattan
Wednesday and passed through this
town again on Thursday, accompanied
by "Round Mountain" Scott. They
will visit the Greenwater country and
make a thorough investigation of con-
ditions in that section.

STAMP OUT THE EVIL.

That it will require more than an
''ounce of civet" to purify the moral
atmosphere of Tonopah at the present
time is a ''cock-sure certainty" Our
city is becoming rotten to the core and
radical measures will have to be adopted
very soon to stamp out the evil. There
are too many lecherous loafers who
live on the earnings Of fallen women;
too many hop iends; too many yegg-
men and fakirs; too many saloon buns
and men of the never-sweat stripe; too
many who try to live OF their wits but
lack the ability to do it adroitly. Crime
in every form from murder down to
rolling and pocket-picking is the result
and the law-abiding citizens are suffer-
ing therefrom. The strangest of all is
the fact that this execrable, ghoulish
state of affairs has only developed
within the last month or two. Prior to
that no city Of its size in the state had
a better name than Tonopah. This fact
was not necessarily because we did not
have any hard characters here, as there
are in every lively, booming town,
that there was no outlawry. 1t was
because of the fact that the vast, for
bidding deserts stretching out on all
sides made it necessary for those seek
ing to escape the law to follow certain
routes. AS the telegraph line extends
over these lines of travel the matter of
capture, provided due diligence was
exerted, was almost a certainty. OF
late, however, encouraged by their sue
cess in eluding capture, these demons
Of the darkness have discovered that
they have a ''good thing so they are
pushing it for all that it is worth. In
view of existing conditions, what Sc
curity has any citizen, when he retires
for the night, that he will wake in the
morning or that he will not beoccupying
a slab in the morgue!
There arein this community, as there
are in nearly all others, people who are
as d~epraved that no value is placed by
them on human life and the only thing
that keeps them in check is the fear o
the law. With this barrier removed i
it surprising that murder and robber.
are rife? 1t is high time that some
thing was being done to redeem tn
fair name of Tonopah else we mus
finally throw up our hands and turn he
over to the damnation bow-wows!

Sheriff Raids a Hop Joint

Last Monday night about 8 o'clock,
Sheriff Mcmahon and two of his depu-
ties, George Swasey and George Logan,
raided a Chinese opium joint on Central
street, kept by a cadaverous Celestial
named Ong Yang. In this den of
infamy were found 16 hunks with
opium ~lay-outs, five women (three of
whom are married and lay claim to
responsibility and a boy about II
years old. The proprietor was arrested
and jailed while the others were per-
mitted to go as they were not caught
in the act Of "hitting the pipe" This
''black hole" is in a basement and is
fitted up in approved Oriental style.
All the lay-outs were coniscated.
Sheriff Mcmahon is determined to
break up these disreputable haunts and
give the chop fiends" to understand
that there is no room for them in Ton
opah. In this work he has the moral
support of every respectable citizen of
this town. The Chinaman's hearing
has been set for Monday next with
bonds fixed at $3.50. The poor fiend,
after being confined for a time, was in
such terrible agony for want of his
dope that Sheriff Mcmahon, out of pity
for the unfortunate, called in the
county physician to relieve his suffering.

On His Way to the East.

Richard S. Stockton, secretary of the
Board of Trade of Tonopah, who left
here a short time ago for a visit to tho
East on business connected with the
body which he represents, in an inter.
view with the Denver Record the other
day, said:
"This fall will be the best season in
the history of Southern Nevada" pre.
dicted Mr.. Stockton. "There are MANY
indications from which such conclusion
may be drawn. The relations Of our
brokers to the eastern markets and in
vestors have been strengthened. MANY
Of our people have established strong
business ties with the East. We have
had a great number of Eastern visitors
who have acquired favorable impress
sions. The visit of Messrs. Macdonald
and Gillies to the East, following their
achievements in Nevada, has been in
huential. Many ore shoots recently
struck are making good. The fact that
many who got in on the ground floor of
properties adjoining original discoveries
have Jared well in a short time and has
had a good effect. The utter failure of a
New York raid on our stocks is a good
sign of their strength. Capital is
streaming into the various districts and
fortunes are streaming out. Southern
Nevada is prosperous, but the wave OF
its psospe1ity is just beginning to rise.
In addition to Southern Nevada, dis,
tricts north of Reno are gaining the at
%tention of capital"
Mr.. Stockton sought no publicity OF
this excursion, but it is gathered from
other sources that the able body whicl
he represents is preparing for an i'm
portant educational campaign on Ne
vada throughout the breadth Of tn
land. He will continue On his %journe.

The Valcalda is Looking Good.

Work is going on steadily on the
property of the Valcalda Silver Peak
mining company at Silver Peak. De-
velopment work is being vigorously
prosecuted to discover the extent OF
the ore bodies, and the tonnage taken
out is now so great that a new 50-horse
power Peerless hoist has been ordered
and will shortly arrive to replace the
30-horse power engine at present in use.
The result of the work that is being
done is highly satisfactory and the mine
is giving a good account of itself. The
company is very well pleased with its
holdings.

Faith in GoldfieId.

AS an instance of the faith of Gold
field men in the Goldfeld mines a trans
action which was carried through in
Tonopah a few days since is worthy of
record, says the Journal of Commerce.
The transaction was made by Senator
Nixon and George Wingfield who pur-
chased from James Forman 20, 900
shares Of Mohawk at So a share, pay
ing $40, 900 cash and $400 commission.
The seller, James Forman, is one of the
Tonopah pioneers and is said to have
paid only 81, $50 for $1,000 shares of
which he still retains 5000. The pur-
chase of this block places the control of
the company in the hands of Nixon and
Wingfield. In speaking of the purchase
Senator Nixon said: "You have no
idea what a wonderful mine the Mohawk
is. Today it is the greatest shipping
gold mine in the west. 1t is now ship
ping out over 300 tons a day and before
many days have past it's output will
exceed that of all the Tonopah mines
together and | fully expect to see 1,0OC
tons a day being shipped from the mine
before it is many weeks older. II
Goldfeld never had another mine the
Mohawk alone would make it famous.
But this discovery Of these great veins
will lead to others in the immediate
vicinity and | look for Goldfeld to be a
wonderful camp this winter"

~GONE-"TO THE DEVIL KNOWS
WHERE"

The coon who had been declaiming
from an improvised rostrum nightly on
Main street, on matters of Socialism
and l. w. W.-ism has hiked out-gone
s'to the devil knows where leaving
his chosen people behind. From the
standpoint of plantation minstrelsy the
coon was very interesting, but as a
political bed-fellow we would prefer
something other than ''black velvet
even if it is cheaper. Give us in
preference ''poor white trash every
time. Still, "every one to his own
taste, " as the old lady said when she
kissed the cow.

PETTY Offenders

Justice Brissell had a pair of indivi-
duals before him last Thursday who
were charged with vagrancy-E. E.
Clayton and P. Trow. They pleaded
guilty and the former was given six
hours to leave town while the latter
was given IL hours in which to make
himself scarce. c. Muldoon was ar
raigned on the same day on a charge OF
disturbing the peace but as he could
show a previously good character the
Judge suspended judgment during his
good behavior.
