turned out to hear the democratic
doctrin expounded by Hon. Joseph
Huffaker and Hon. Tom Drewry.

agement of public affairs, which had
been continued by them tor period

hope of the young men and the future
welfare of the country depended on
the adoption OF the principles set out

Both speakers we're frequently ap-

HEAVY SHIPMENT
OF SILVER coin
RECEIVES HEAVY
CONSIGNMENT FOR LOCAL
BANKS.

Wells Fargo & Co. S express wagon
was held up yesterday morning at
the corner of Brougher avenue and
Main stretched up of it's own
weight. There was shipment on
the wagon from the East of $40, 500
in silver half dollars, to be used in
the payment of the miners on Mon
day next. The shipment weighed
about a ton and a half, and it was
just as much as the tired horses of
the express company could do to
haul it to the corner of the street to
the bank for which it was intended.
The shipment was made to the
Nevada First National Bank, and
the bulk of it had to be packed by
hand, or by sack from the corner of
Main street to the bank, half block
away.

RAWHIDE LOOKS
GOOD TO LAWYER
CASTOR ASHE THINKS CAMP
WILL BE ONE OF THE
GREATEST.

CASTOR Ashe arrived here yester-
day from Rawhide, where he has
been a resident for the past five or
six weeks. Mr. Ashe halls from Cal
ifornia, but has been a resident OF
Nevada for the past eight months.
He thinks that Rawhide is going to
be one of the greatest camps in the
State.
If surface showings are any in
dication of the wealth and worth
of the camp" said Mr.. Ashe, Raw
hide is certainly a wonder Greater
surface showings nave never been
seen anywhere. and they are finding
the ore getting better and more
plentiful as they go down. To be
sure, they are not down more than
eighty or a hundred feet, but for
the age of the camp this is pretty
good. 1t is better than Goldfield
was at the same age, and that is a
pretty good criterion.
THE people are most optimistic
and that is another good sign. You
can't find a man in Rawhide who
does not feel that he is in the great
est camp in the world, and at that
the camp is practically broke. There
is money coming in, of course, but
there is no money there for work
ing men, the time not having ye
arrived for that | believe though
that the time is coming.
What looks good about Rawhidt
to everybody is the fact that the
camp was born in the throes of thu
| financial slump, and it has liveC
through the panic, and is more lust,
of life than ever. There must b,
something behind this. and tina
something is the gold in the hills
and the ore that is being taken gu
of the mines. The people are crowd
ing into the camp in stage-loads am
auto-loads every day"

Four bars of gold were received yes
terday by the Tonopah Banking Cor
poration, consigned from the Bank of
Manhattan, which came from the
Rose-Nash lease, through the Lemon
mill. The bars will be sent to the
mint; their weight is 440 ounces,
and their value $627S
Manhattan keeps in the limelight
through her big shipments, and the
fact that her mills are grinding out
te bullion. The fourth mill of the
camp is being constructed as fast as
possible.

WORKING MONO
LAKE OIL WELLS
PROJECTORS SAY THEY HAVE
GREATEST FIELDS IN
WEST.

Louis w. Bond of Goldtield, and
Perry Sexton of Bodie, arrived here
yesterday Mr.. Bond is associated
with number of Tonopah people in
oil deposits on Mono Lake, and he
has been at the deposits for the past
month. He has been working on it
for the past six months, and thinks
that he has one of the greatest oil
fields in the West
Il believe that we have struck oil
without a doubt" said Mr.. Bond.
I'VE know that We have it on the
surface, and naturally infer that we
have it below. l am not alone in
this superstition, for we have had
some of the best oil experts on the
ground, and they give very encourag-
ing reports on the oil. We have
made number of locations, and
have acquired others. The best indi-
cations are found ON an island in
the middle of the lake, bleak, de-
serted island, where the seagulls of
the Pacific go in the summer to
raise their young. We have a large
acreage, and there will be a great
deal of work going on there before
great while. l have arranged to
sink four wells, and there is plenty
of capital behind the project to carry
it through"
