ToNoPAH NEVER IN BETTER CONDITION.

While'th the stocks Of Tonopah are lower than they have been for
many a day, and while there are cries of hard times heard elsewhere, the
camp was never in a better physical condition, or the outlook for Ton

mines than ever before.

condition Of this camp, there is no danger for the future of Tonopah.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
CONE VEST, YOUNG Man, CONE WEST.

Horace Greeley, who was one OF the wisest men in his generation.
gave this advice to the young men Of the efete east:
Young man, so west"
The great west was then a budding country and the young men
who followed the advice of the sage editor, and who had the proper
sand, came this way, made fortunes for themselves and helped to
build up a great country.
Now comes a young man out Of the east who has been in the west
long enough to weigh its chances and opportunities is against those Of
the metropolitan cities, and his advice is a paraphrase of the great eH
tor. Mr.. a. Y. Dillingham;, a city bred gentleman, is on his return to
Philadelphia after spending several weeks in the Ubehebe country, and
50 fascinated is he with the country that he is coming right back, ana
his advice to all he may see viii be to shed their mercantile pursuits and
come west.
He says that he would rather work with a pick and shovel on the
broad, free desert than with a pen and ink in the crowded atmosphere of
a mercantile office. This is the right kind OF talk for the go-ahead AM
encan of today. His advice to the toers in the mercantile houses and
counting rooms of the east is sound. If a young man has the proper
stuff N his composition, his place is in the west.
This is the place of opportunity. 1t matters not whether a man
comes here in the capacity Of clerk or to ddve into the ground. II he is
the right kind Of a man he will go forward: he cannot help it. Take last
fall and winter for example. Money was plentiful, 81 We're positions,
both here and in Goldfeld. And the prices that were paid for help We're
something extraordinary. Nearly everybody was out for himself, and it
was hard to get the right kind of a man for office or anything else. A good
ers Office, stay there awhile, and then become a broker and promoter
himself And this was not the exception. it was the rule, There were
opportunities OF getting into mymg properties and there were lots of
young men fresh from the east, WHO did SO, and fortunes We're made in a
short while If they We're lost hgain through speculation, there was
no one to blame but the loser. He had had his opportunity, and if he
atterwar went broke, there was the spirit in him to go after another
fortune, and to get it.
Ihgea are lots OF good properties in this country which lack capital
fr their development Here are fine opportunities for a young man Of
Don't think that you can't get the capital, for there is money waiting for
good investment now, as there always has been. Buck up and 90 after
t. Where there is money coming out Of the ground there is always
more moneyto be made.

ARROW HEAD COMING UP.

Arrow Head is making good very
rapidly Judging from reports which
have reached Yerington from that
section. An assay of the ore recently
uncovered in the property of Kockel
brothers shows that it runs s997.64
to the ton in gold and silver.
Development is progressing rapid
~ ON this estate and the owners are
extracting a shipment of ore which
will likely be treated in the mill at
Pine Grove.
Adjoining the Kockel holdings.
VIM. MeEwen has uncovered some
splendid gold ore in his shaft at a
depth Of seventy feet. The owner is
still sinking on the vein and expects
to open up a big shoot at depth.
Arrow Head was the scene of con
siderable activity last spring. The
summer, however, witnessed a de-
cline, only the faithful remaining. II
now seems that they are to be hand
somely rewarded.-Yerington Times.

LIVELY TIMES AHEAD FOR ToNopAH.
Business is good.

Not a merchant in the city complaining; the banks fun Of money:

There is nothing the matter with Tonopah. nothing excenf that II

The cry of hard times is a bugaboo. it does not 60 in this country
There Is JUS as much money in the United States a there a before the
savage onslaught of Wall street on the administration, which locked up
the money in the vaults. There is more; the mines OF the country are
turning out the money every day. The wealth of the United States is
beyond computation.
We are the richest country in the whole world.
The money kings, rolling in the wealth Of the land. love money too
well to burn 1T, or throw it into the sea. They think too much of it to
permit it to remain idle too long; they want it working for them. They
are jealous of our mines and securities; but they cannot stop the out
pouring OF the wealth from the mines. They will get busy before long,
for they cannot maintain the false cry of hard times.
The big crops give them the lie; the big production of gold. silver.
copper, lead and other minerals give them the lie; the millions Of men
at work, the general condition of prosperity throughout the entire coun

CANNOT RENDER
AID TO WOUNDED

CARSON CITY. Oct. Lost in
the Businesses Of the tubes Of Washoe
Lake and severely wounded with his
own shotgun. an unknown hunter,
supposed to be from Reno. has been
calling for help since dusk this even
ing. It is impossible to reach him
owing to the dense growth of the
tules and the darkness which re-
vents the finding OF the trail.
Hunters in the ncighborhood heard
his cries at twilight and approached
as near as possible to him, but were
unable to distinguish his name with
certainty, which seemed to be John
McCabe. Searchers have made G '
eral efforts to reach the wounded
man, but without success.
1t is uncertain whether he viii live
through the night, as it is showing
and the weather is growing colder.
At . o'clock tonight his cries for as
s~istance could still be heard.
II is the custom of hunters to row
out to their selected spot in the
dense growth of tules and send their
boat back. This was done by Me-
Cabe, but he was unable to return
on account of the accident.
