smelter site purposes providing the
people here would give other induce
ments making it possible for them to
locate In this vicinity

ance of having the smelters located
near Grantsville and the benefits
which It's citizens might derive there
from. IL was pointed out that TooeIe
county has more waste and desert
ihhd tnan any other county in the
state which is of no material use
whatever only for such purposes. 1t
is evident that the citizens of this town
are heartily IN sympathy with the
movement and as evidence OF II Il
committee was appointed To wait on
the Officers OF the smelling companies
In Salt Lake. II consists of the follow
ing persons; Bishop a. X. Anderson
$. w. Woolley Ray Rowberry, James
i. Wrathall, Il. Il. Woolley The fol-
lowing committee was then appointed

ONLY A JAIL FOR Puas.
Ycrington Business Interests Want no
Fistic Carniyals.

A story comes from Yerington. New,
to the effect that some San Francisco
promoters of flstic exhibitions recently
addressed the members of the cham
Der of commerce of that place asking
what the camp would put up for q
prize fight, requesting an answer by
wire. The communication received by
the Yerlngtonites contained the fol-
lowing.
This will be worth millions to your
camp as an advertisement. All the
Nevada camps are having them--iook
at Goldfield and Tonopah, and Bull
frog and Searchlight and Ely. If
you will put up literally we will give
you mill that as an ad for the camp
will knock the stuffing out of the
event Tex Richard promises to pull off
In Ely next spring"
The chamber of commerce instruct
ed the secretary to turn them down
cold; we don't want any of that sort
of ruffianism here"
On the day following the receipt
of the San Francisco communication
the secretary OF the Yerington cham
Der wired:
Letter received. Nixy--no opening
here for your art Only thing cham
Der win put up for prize fight Is jail,
with ironclad guarantee of bread and
water for 80 days Yerington Is not
doing any mining above ground and
doesn't believe in scandalous advertis-
ing. Got Ely skinned mile for cop
per and willing to let her have all
film fam advertising she can get from
prize fight. Ycrlngton has got the
greatest copper deposit in Nevada.
Greatest opportunities. Glad hand to
all honest miners and prospectors.
Marble heart TO all brands of finn
fiammers--see? This is not conilden-
,tial. Pass IL up to your local news
papers, so the public may know, and
Yerington will remember you all in
its prayers"
(Signed.) oyer"
