SUED FOR A MILLION

The famous Ludwig mine of the
Yerington district was sold last week
for the highest price that has been
paid for a property in this district,
81, 100000 cash. The Ludwig mine has
always been considered the richest in
the district, and it has the record OK
producing the most shipping ore and
having shipped it. The popularity Of
the Ludwig is that it produces nearly
every known character Of copper ore
and is veritable ewel box On the
surface is a very high grade cuprite
ore was obtained while lower down
was encounteded a vein Of malachite
and azurlte ore that was mostly all
shipped to the lapidaries to be cut
into jewelry. This ore sells from 50
ents to 81 a pound. AT the present
depth of GOO feet the mine is richer
tha never, having a large body of sui
phide ore in sight and 4-foot ledge
of native copped ore that carries 20
per cent copper. It is estimated that
from six to ten millions in value is
now in sight in the mine.

RAILROAD TO FAIRviEW

The -Chfchill~Standard learns. from
an authoritative source that arrange
ments are now in progress by the
southern Pacific company for the ear
ly extension of the Fallon railroad to
Fairview and Wonder. In fact things
have gone so far that engineers have
been assigned to the task of
running the permanent lines and other
wise preparing for the early COM
mencement of the work of actual rail
and tie laying. For several months
past a number of competent men
have been engaged in the work Of
computing the actual tonnage now
awaiting the railroads entrance int
the camps Of the southern part OF
Cnurchill county, but it is extremely
doubtful if anything would have been
done for year or two at least in
actual construction WORK had it not
been for the fact that the Western
Pacific company, controlled by George
Gould interests, seeks also an outlet
for its own for Southern Nevada.

The Good Old Days Of the Comstock

An Albany dispatch recites the fol- .
lowing:
'Assemblyman James Oliver to-
night introduced bill to do away
with the graveyard voting in the uo
state districts where this practice has
for wears contributed to the republi-
can majorities.
The bill provides for personal regis
tration in towns and villages where,
under the present law, names are car
ried over from year to year.
The law has permitted the republi-
cans to carry on the registration
books the names Of many men who
have been dead for years. At the u
ection these names are voted on Cy
repeaters in the employ of republican
| bosses
This Gals to mind the good old days
Of the Comstock when Senator Sharon
first utilized the graveyard vote Of
Storey. He exercised his cOnsidera-
ton for his departed friends by bien-
nial resurrections when he sent them
to the front to cast their influence
for their party.
His plan met with universal appro-
val for years until he Inadvertently al
lowed his henchmen to ring in sew

to make a Sharon majority dt re-

GOLOF|ElO WINS OUT IN
SENATE
Senator Pyne Scores For His County
In Good Shape

SSndIOT pyUc 0COTSo EOI ITO SouUAy
In Good Shape
This afternoon Senator Pynes bill
to move the County Seat of Esmeralda
from Hawthorne to Goldfield came up
in the Senate and under a suspensions
Of the rules for third reading and
inal passage. The opposition to the
ill did not expect the fight to be per-
cipitated so early but Payne had mar
snaled his forces and knew he could
push it to the finish right there.
There were the usual dilitory tactics
but Pyne was fully prepared when the
vote came on postponing the consid-
GRAFTON for a special order. Pyne
opened the ball and spoke briefly.
He asked why anyone should ask
for a postponment of a bill which only
interested Esmeralda county. 1t was
ridiculous for outside senators to ask
for more light for it was solely To-
cal measure in which the parties in
terested were in possession of all
The light necessary to act advisedly.
He demanded the consideration of the
bill at once
The first was won in favor of the
bill by vote of Il to ).
The author of the bill then pro-
ceeded on its final consideration 20
explain in a few terse sentences how
much this change was needed. He
claimed that Hawthorne was isolated
from the railroad by six miles and
only accessible by stage and that
while possibly FIVE hundred people
would be affected adversely by the re-
movaf the interests Of fifteen thou
sand people were first to be consider
ed and their interests lay in the town
Of Goldfield which was fast becoming
one of the best known cities in the
United States. The matter had Ill
been threshed out in the election and
every member Of the delegation was
pledged to The removal of the county
seat to that town.
They also proposed to incorporate
and wanted the county seat bill to Ii
acted on first that they might ge,
the other measure before the legis
: lature and do business. Goldfield wa.
progressing by leaps and bounds ant
having grown up to be the leading
city Of the state in two years it wa!
not used to slow methods and waitins
tactics.
After the senator had finished ther,

was no answer. 1t demonstrate,
