BIG Dividend PAYER IS
TO D|SBURSE IN MARCH

As hours upward of 16.000,e00
pounds of copper. Thus far this
month II has sold something like CO.,
100000 pounds and. it is stated, at
about 3 cents. Only a week aga il
was said that the combined selling
agencies had sold between 80 200, goo
and 40,000,000 pounds, and since
that time the market has become
more active and great deal more
copper has been disposed of than dur
ing the first two months. The head
of one of the large Independent SELL
ing companies says; "A reasonable
domestic demand now would put cop
per to . cents very quickly. The
steel business has turned for the bet
ter, and business conditions all over
the country are showing some i'm
provement."

Nevada Hills the leader of Ne
vada's dividend payers, VIII next
month make its sixth quarterly dis
bursement to its stockholders The
dividend will be the same as the five
that have been paid In the last fif-
teen months, 10 cents a share, or
$4,000 in the aggregate. That this
dividend will be paid is known to che
Fairview News upon the very best of
authority, and while no official an
nouncement to that effect has been
made. II Is believed that the pro-
ceeds of ore shipments during the
past three months have been suffi-
cient to meet It, without the COM
pany having to call on its surplus
fund. Since the December dividend
was paid, Nevada Hills has been
working with reduced force. and its
ore shipments have been small COM
pared with what they were before
the panic began, with the consequent
slump in the price of silver. The
mine had. however, nearly 10000
sacks of very high grade ore awaiting
shipment at the time its force was re-
duced The force that has been
working has been sufficient to keep
the supply of sacked high grade at
this figure, so that shipments and out
put have about balanced during the
period of depression. Nevada Hills
stock has shown on the exchange the
confidence of traders that the March
dividend would be paid. During the
past three weeks IL has advanced so
points. and 1t is known that insiders
in the company management were not
only buying 1t at low figures, but
were tipping their friends to buy.
Last year Nevada Hille paid divi-
dends amounting to 1879 per cent on
the average market value of its
stock. This was the largest return
TO investors made by any Nevada
mining corporation. With the as
surance that the dividends will be
continued, It is likely that the
record for this year will exceed that
of 1907. and unless some new Won
der is developed, Fairview's great
mine seems certain of leading the
procession again in 19OS.-Tonopah
Bonanza.

TALK OF DEAL In
WIND FOR THE
RICHARD ELY

Since the deal whereby the Boston
Ely quietly acquired control of the
Ely Western, rumor has been 60
ing the rounds and is gradually gain
ing credence that the next move of
the Lawson interests, believed to be
behind the present deal, will be to
acquire the Richard Ely.
Whether there is truth In the
story or not cannot be ascertained. as
Tex Richard, principal owner of the
Richard Ely, is at present out of the
district, being at Rawhide. The
movement of this stock. which should
tell something about the status of
the report, is being watched closely.
Last spring, when the local boom
was at its height, ii was generally
accepted as truth that Thomas Law
son of Boston, moving spirit in the
acquisition of the Ely Western, was
diekering with Mr.. Richard and his
associates for the control of the
Richard Ely property. Just as the
deal was about TO be closed the gen.
eral slump in stocks and a tighten
ing of money caused it to be dropped.
Richard Ely's four claims are west
of the Veteran mine of the Cumber-
land Ely and adjoining the Boston
Ely on the west and the Ely West
ern on the north. Richard Ely

and Ely Western, has good look from

, At the Giroux the work of re-
covering the Alpha shaft is GO

force has not yet reached dan
gerous ground, being still
above the cave.
Another run occurred in the
mine during the week. being of
considerable extent. This was
, from the old cave and deter

ground has by no manner of
means been checked.
} Confidence continues, how
, ever, with the Giroux manage
