LOOKING FORWARD.

Men of Ely, read carefully the in
terviews printed in today's White
Pine News. They are given by men
who have supplied either money or
brains for the making of the Ely of
today and the Ely of tomorrow.
The mines they have developed,
he railroad they have built and the
reat shelters they are building are
he magnets which have drawn all
he crowd. Their work-it is n pal
able fact-has filled Ely's horn of
gently.
Concerning Greater Ely and the
armony which should attend the up
hiding of the city of the future Mr..
eccles said
II hope to see the old and the
ew towns grow together and be so
closely cemented that there will he
bur one Ely. and that all interests
will take broad and liberal view
of the operations of the new COM
panies and that all classes of peo-
pie will unite to give long and hard
pull for a Greater Ely.
And as to what the future will
bring, this is what W. b. Thompson
conservative, far seeing man, says:
L predict that five years from now
the concentrators will handle 10000
tons of ore per day. | look to see
Ely, Greater Ely, if YOU please, the
commercial and industrial center of
Eastern Nevada, if not of the entire
state | expect there will be 10000
people here by january, 1908. Three
years from now there will be $4,000
people living here and We will have a
modern city. There will be- all the
conyenienees of civilization and pro-
gress that can be found in any city
of 5000 in the country.
A 10000 ton smelter alone would
support 5000 inhabitants; a 10000
ton smelter would require the activ-
ity of thousands. of miners whose
earnings would also support thous-

BASE BALL.

The baseball season is now in full
swing. The players, after having linn
bered up in the south. are once more
going through the daily stunts which
are so picturesquely related by the
base ball writer's.
And, of course the spirit OF emu
lation is stirring ball players every
where to activity. Boys and young
men are already practicing with the
ball in the streets. and several match
games are being talked of.
There is now considerable base
ball talent in Ely, and strong club
could be organized. which would re-
fleet enduring honor upon the great
est copper camp on earth.
Crackers have prophesied the de-
cay of the great American sport of
ball playing, but every year proves
anew that they are false prophets.
As long as there are healthy men
and lively boys in the world there
will be base bali mines and lots of

RICH STRIKE
RESULTS IN A
Big STAMPEDE

Tonopah was thrown into a fever
ing by the report of fabulously rich
strike at point about six miles north
of the old camp of Reveille, and on
Thursday an old-time stampede oc-
Cured, says the Tonopah Miner. All
the automobiles in town were pressed
into service, and livery rigs were in
great demand. The news of the strike
was brought into town by an old pros
pector named Hildebrandt. The or
iginal discoveries were made by Hill
debrandt and Jack Long some weeks
ago.. A. d. Renfro, the auto man,
and G. E. Gavin were informed of the
strike by Hildebrandt, and left Tono-
pah early in the week in an auto for
the scene of the discovery, returning
here Wednesday night. Mr.. Gavin,
in speaking of the strike, said:
1.-The new district is almost identi-
cal with Goldfield in appearance. and
that is the first thing that occurs to
one. 1t looks just like Goldfield,
viewed from the old depot. heard
of the discovery through pure acct
dent. Old man Hildebrandt came to
Tonopah for the Fourth of July cele-
bration, and he brought some of the
rock along to be assayed. 1t was the
most unlikely looking rock that any
body ever looked at, but 1t assayed
$270 a ton. That was good enough
for me, and l suggested to Renfro
that we go out and take look at the
country; so we started Tuesday night
We beat Hildebrandt out and located
the extension of his property, getting
$50 feet of the ledge. There were
four of us in the party and we To-
Gated eleven claims between us. We
left plenty more ground for those
who were to come after us. There
were about thirty locators on the
ground when we left. The day we
arrived there Jack Long came in with
an assay on rock taken from his loca-
ton which went $4,000 for four feet.
I saw the ledge, the rock and the as
say myself. A man named Wood has
a shaft down ten feet and has the
same character of rock. Another man
named Hyde has rock in tenfOOt
hole that runs between 500 and
$500 per ton. The new district looks
good to me on account of the loca-
ton. Reveille Is only six miles away.
with formation of quartzite and
lime, and in the new camp there Is an
formation, strictly porphyry.
There are ryolite, andesite, phonolite
and birdse.e porphyry. You can't
pan any of the rock, but upon roast
ing it blisters all over"
Reports brought in yesterday by
returning stampeders indicate that
the new district Is somewhat of dis
appointment-in fact, several men
made the hard trip of eighty miles
assert that the first reports of the
"big strike were greatly exagger-
ated."

two seasons the Holly factory
has not made 6 per cent per an

The Holly chieftain., 1907-11-01

y !. Sicklebower, secretary
of the East Prowers Beetgrow-
ers' association, said:
"In regard to the shortage of
the beet crop this year: 1t must
be due to the variety of the beet
seed furnished the growers by
the sugar companies, as we. as
intelligent farmers and beet
growers, have evidence which
substantiates our belief that it is
the seed instead of the climatic
conditionsa as the beets were
practically thru growing and ma
tured before extFFeme h9t weather
had very much effect upon them,
Last year we had a field of beets
which made sixteen tons to the
acre under far worse conditions,

that the factories were started too
early, especially in view of the
lateness of the season. Hereto
fore / have never delivered beets
before October. IS, while this
year deliveries commenced about
a month earlier ! have raised
beets for seven years, always get
ting excellent results until this
season.
"At this time of the growing

matured. AS the tests are now
running they will show, higher

the result most desired by the STU
gar company, enabling it TO make
excellent profits"
Another early settler and one
of the first beet-growers in this
part of the state, said.
"We held a meeting of grow
ers two weeks ago and there was
not a dissenting voice at that
time to the fact that the farmers
had been euchered and had re-
ceived dwarf seed. l am thoroly
convinced OF the fact myself, for
l have grown beets 50 many
years that when they go to tops
and fail to make good root and
of the proper shape, l am certain
that it is caused by different
variety of seed, and it must be
dwarf" for II certainly produces

resulta were the same. l noticed,
too, that the dwarf variety is sub
ject to disease known as leaf
spot and that it only seems to
affect the dwarf variety Of beets
to any extent. There was none
of this disease in this country un-
til after dwarf seed had been
substituted"
c. w. Merwin, who has grown
beets for the American Beet Su
gar company and the Holly Su-
gar company for the past eight
years, said:
II am not prepared to say
whether the sugar people have
substituted dwarf seed or not,
but I know that we have beets
with a root like radish and the
spot blight has appeared this
year for the first time practical
ly. 1t may be that the seed is
simply diseased and that causes
the dwarf condition of the prod
uct."
Staff Captain French, secre-
tary to Col. Thes. Helland. man
ager of the Amity farm colony Of
the Salvation army, said:
"We have the first crop this
year since the drainage of our
lands was commenced and we
are quite well satisAed with the
returns, IN fact, enthusiastic un-
der the circumstances. Some of
our growers are getting returns
of twelve tons to the acre On hand
that has not yet been actually
drained. tho it lies next to some
that has been. None of our
beets raised on tiled land have
been harvested as yet. The leaf
spot blight has done great deal
of damage, but we think that Just
a disease that has gotten into the
seed and have no adequate idea
as to whether or not dwarf seed
has been substituted by the su-
gar company"
