center for the valley country, includ
ing a large area of valuable territory
in which are many mining camps and
ranches. Beside the convenience of
the location, there is the further pres
ent advantage of lower prices on all
goods enabled by lesser expenses. The
fact of these prices has not only Sc
cured the Ely City trade in very large
part to the Nunnelly establishment,
but has also brought it a large trade

PLAN BIG
BUILDING
Company in Process Of
Organization for En-
terprise.
NEED OF NEAR FUTURE
Will Be Supplied in Theatre ano
Large Auditorium at Ely City,
For Big Conventions and sno"s

Some time ago plans were taken
under adyisement for the erection VI
a theater and auditorium building III
Ely City by a group of investors III
the district who believe that the point
affords opportunity for such an enter
prise with assurance attending 'ha'
large income will be derived In the
course of little while.
About the time that ORGANIZATION
of the building company which was
proposed was maturing change oc-
CURED in the general financial situa-
lion and the project was tempo ariiy
put aside. TIE recent improvement
in the outlook, together With the
larger freedom of money, has brought
about renewal of interest in the
building matter and at a meeting
which was held Sunday afternoon II
was determined By several OF those
who had signifed intention of par
ticieating in the original plan that
they would at once take up the work
where left off.
1t is now expected that details will
shortly be concluded and that orga-
nization of he company which will
carry out the project can be made
with sufficient capitalization and
enough paid in on stock to enable
the beginning of actual work as soon
as the favorable weather Of spring
warrants the commencing of new
construction. Under the plans which
have been contemplated TO teis time,
a building which will coss between
$50, 600 and $4,000 will be erected.
It will be of at least two stories. with
probably three stories at the rear to
accommodate the stage and theater
requirements.
The first floor will be so arranged
that the ircline prevailing for the
acccmmodation of the theater seats.
etc, can at will be done away with
through the substitution of a nova
BILE floor, which will give at any time
large level floor space This feat
ure will be particularly desirable
from the fact that it will enable the
holding of conventions large gather
ings of other sort and also provide an
excellent dance loor.
Those who have looked into the
plans and given the proposition study
are confident of successful outcome of
tho enterprise. 1t Is considered that
in a year or two the city will alforc
the hest show town in the state and
with railroad connections which are
coming about will be a1la to get tho
very best attractions on the road. Be-
side this there is considered to be no
doubt but that in q little while the
city will be in line to attract state
gatherings, particularly those having
to do with mining matters. No cen.
ter in the entire country affords mo, q
attractions for tho mining man. the
geologist, mining supply manufactur-
ers and tradesman than does this ami
a building Which will be large enough
to accommodare conventions is 5, nen,l
that must sooner or later he sun

ing feel that the sooner the nr,,-
vision IS iaa ie the better and ibot
