SENATOR ODDIE
BACK IN TONOPAH
SUCCEEDS IN INTERESTING EAST.
ERNERS IN PROJECT THAT
WILL HELP NEVADA.

Senator T. L. eddie, who has been
absent for nearly five months in the
east, his time being principally divid-
ed between New York and Philadel- !
phia, is back in the camp and state to
whose upbuilding he has been one of
the most important factors.
While east he took occasion to at
tend the Republican national conven-
ton and was active in support of
Taft for whom he has very high re-
gard. The feeling among the people
with whom he came in contact is that
the election of Taft and Sherman is a
foregone conclusion.
Climatic conditions he reports as
something fearful. The heat being
overpowering by day and night and
he expressed great relief in coming
back to the desert where the weather
is the most delightful to be found
anywhere.
> The senator's direct mission to the
|
for the purpose of pushing forward a
mining venture the magnitude of
which was such that a great amount
of capital was necessary. Arriving in
New York just at the time when the
financial depression was at it's height,
it would have daunted any man save
such as T. L. eddie. He was success
full, however, and will in months
time have party of eastern capital
lists in this state and together they
will make an inspection of the var
ious districts, looking into the posi-
bilities of the various camps and on
their return will complete an organi-
cation that will mean much to the
state.
Said the senator: Il have laid
plans for campaign of big develop
ments in mining and have succeeded
in enlisting capital to come to Ne
vada. Our state has received black
eye in quite few instances in wild
eating and other illegitimate mea-
sures. With those whom l came in
contact l endeavored as far as posi-
BILE to remove the stigma. The panic
has had a good effect in this direc-
ton 1t has eliminated this class en-
tirely. There is great interest man
ifetsed in the east on conditions II
> this state and there will be a greater
a one by this fall. People will now &c
into the legitimate and the number o.
, dividend payers that are now coming
to the front will induce investors tC
turn their eyes towards Nevada. BY
, the first of the coming year Nevada
will be the center of attraction for al
parts of the country. Personally
| believe that this state is in its in
fancy relative to mineral production
: and the outlook for its taking frs
s place in the galaxy of precious meta
producing states is fiattering."
