Smoky valley to Round mountain,
Manhattan and Tonopah, where It will
connect with the Tonapah G. Tidewater
railroad, making a direct line for the
Gould system from the east via Battle
mountain and Austin, through the
largest and the richest mining district
the greatest city on the Pacific coast,
and soon to become the greatest min
ing center in the world.
TIE mining district of Millett is
in no sense of the word a boom camp.
The people there are doing all of their
mining under ground and are not try
ing to mine the public. There Is very
little If any stock in properties in this
district on the market, the owners Of
the properties here knowing that their
mines are worth many times more than
their stock would sell for at this time.
One or two companies are Offering
small blocks of treasury stock for de-
velopment purposes only, and the in
Vestor that secures stock in these com
panies and holds it for a short time is
sure to make very large profits on his
investment.
An item of interest to the prospective
investor as we'll as to the prospector
and miner is the water supply of min
ing district. The Millett district Is the
best watered camp in the state of
Nevada. Ophir creek runs 154 miners
inches at it's lowest stage of the very
best of spring and melted snow water
The Millett district will be heard from
in very substantial way before the
year 1907 draws to a close.

ODDITIES IN
MINING CAMPS
Unique Characters Continue to Arouse
the Fear and Admiration of the
"Tenderfoot" in the Noun
tain Regions

In all mining camps there are num-
ber of western types" that are inter
esting, if only for studies. They are al
ways grizzled veterans and usually all
have a record or would lead you to
think that at some time in their lives
they had been bad men" and had sew
eral notches on their gunstocks. But
it's simply sanguinary dream on the
part of the old timer, who, outs--e of
his profane vocabulary, is as mild as
milk, but does not smell as sweet by
several gallons.
Some Of them are men of education,
who, in the early days, when the world
went gold mad, cast aside family ties
and turned their faces toward the set
ting sun in quest of the yellow god that
dominates the soul Of civilized man. In
their new environment they took on
rough ways, and, feeling resentful at
their feebleness among the lofty noun
tain peaks, swore long and roundly to
assert that they were men and not
afraid of the grand solitudes of nature,
or 1t may be that the vast desert blunt
ed their better natures and made them
careless of life and soul.
There are number Of this class at
Rhyolite and their descriptions of their
early struggles, their Indian fights, VIC
tories, defeats, love affairs, shooting
scrapes, are always interesting, If not
wholly believeable.
All of these old fellows bear title
foreign to that given them when they
were baptized, If indeed such a rite
was ever accorded them, and it's usual
ly one that relates particularly to the
section Of country over which the "old
timer" has tramped time and again.
Many of the "old guard" have located
claims in the Bullfrog district and are
today happy and on easy street.
The prospector is another type, and,
strange as it may seem, is usually a
man of high ideals, singleness of pur-
pose and always an optimist. He may
trudge wearily over the mountains for
years, cracking off a piece of rock here
and there, looking for values that he
never finds, but up to the hour of his
death he will tell you that he knows
where the gold is and will find it next
time, and so his life goes out hope
fully, and may it be that his eager soul
finds compensation in "the city where
walls are of jasper and whose streets
are streets Of gold"

it this way. The thing will be so mixed up that none of us will know where we're at if the judges are named in that manner"
 Judge Gould was interrupted by Mr. Sorrells several times and he told him each time to remain quiet, stating that he had not interrupted Mir. Sorrells while he had the floor.
 Some personalities that went for nausht were indulged in. Mr. Sor- rells charged that the list of judges had already been made out. When he asked Judge Gould this question the latter said that he would take a paralyzed oath that such was not the case and ''further,' said the county judge, whoever says the lists have been prepared is a damned liar.''
 The argument subsided when Judge Gould and Judge Jones and the two candidates for sheriff agreed to an amendment in which each of the candidates for sheriff is given the privilege to name one judge each and the other is to be named by the com mittee in charge of the election. The amendment in which the agreement was inserted, was unanimously adopt ed.
 Before adjournment MT. Sorrells off, fered resolution providing that the salary or fee systeln for officers in this county be voted on at the coming primary. The matter had been refer red to the committee by the last con- mittee. The resolution was adopted.
 The resolution offered by MT. Crockett and adopted by the commit tee is similar in many respects to that offered by MT. Sorrells, except ing where it provides for the selec- tion of judges. MT. Sorrells made brief speech to the committee after it's adoption, stating that it was al- most an exact copy of his resolution and jokingly remarked that someone had stolen his "open primary idea from his copy The committee end ed things harmoniously and MT. Sor- rells kept up the good feeling by passing around a box of cigars.
