Says Nevada Mines are Worked Out

Lloyd Carter. a mine blacksmith,
who has been working in the Nevada
mines for year or more past, is visit
ing in Grand Junction and he declares
that the mines which have given those
camps their reputation are practically
worked out.
The mines are not true fissure veins
as are found in Colorado, but the rich
mineral occurs in pockets, according to
Carter's story. with nothing in the for
nation. to indicate the existence of a
vein in place, and that these pockets
are practically exhausted. He gives It
as his opinion that the cessation Of
work at this time was a pre-arranged
schedule, and that in the spring work
will resume upon the few remaining
pockets in order to create boom in
stocks and unload before the fiaal col
lapse comes. Telluride Journal.
