Tonopah bonanza. [volume] (Butler City [i.e. Butler], Nev.) 1901-1909, 1908-12-26
NO "PETS" WANTED

The resignation of Fire Chief swasey is to be deplored by the peo-
pie of Tonopah, for he has been instrumental in the upbuiding and
maintenance of a most efficient fire fighting machine in this cfty-for
such is the effectiveness of the Tonopah paid and volunteer fire de-
partment at the present time that it may be called a machine. How
ever much his resignation is to be deplored, it is now a matter OF
record, and the appointment of . worthy successor Is the next thing
for attention.
Some time ago the Tonopah Bonanza contained an editorial which,
in the light of recent events, was most timely. Having no inkHng
of the fact that M. Swasey was to resign in the near future. the
Bonanza, in commenting upon the fire department, said. in effect, that
the appointment of a fire chief sn ud be through merit, and not
through political pull or preferment. And a. this time should the
county commissioners appoint as fire chief some man who is some
ones political pet" and with no consideration as to whether he is a
man who can handle a body of men in the most effective manner; as
to whether he knows anything about fighting fire, or the location of
MIGRANTS, construction OF the various buildings in town, and a knowl-
edge of exactly where practically every me in town resides, they will
not only be working against the best interests of every property
owner in Tonopah but will be preparing for the obsequies OF the fire
department as it now exists. There are men now members-active
and working members who are out for every drill and for every fire
of the fire department who have long preparation for the time
when the machinery Q. the department should fall into their hands.
and we believe we voice the sentiment of all thinking men of the city
when we say-Let the fire department name its own new chief and
let the commissioners ratify this choice. The man who puts forward
the name of his pet" for this position Is merely working for his own
selfish interests, and does not care a DIN for the good of the town.
Let the fremen name their chief
Tonopah bonanza. [volume] (Butler City [i.e. Butler], Nev.) 1901-1909, 1908-12-26

into "intrusions' galore; and which are operating "at a loss owing to
the low price of silver" keep right on, adding to working forces, de-
claring dividends, and another Tonopah mill has practically been de-
garding the properties in which his employer, Nat Goodwin, is not
interested.
Giving the devil his due, the Nevada Mining News is doing much
good boosting for the camp of Rawhide-as well as some other prop
critics in which Goodwin is directly or indirectly interested-but the
good which this boosting might do is minimized to a n almost unbe-
hevable degree by the attitude of the paper toward properties in
which Goodwin is not interested. The false statements and prophe-
sizes, and Tips" which are passed out about other properties, and
which properties later entirely disproved the statements of Rice-Her-
zig, also tend to further minimize confidence of the public in Raw
hide-for, If a paper will lie about properties in which it is not inter
ested, it will lie, and all the more comprehensively and wildly about
ming" not necessarily made out of the property but out of the public.
The type of man whom Mr.. Goodwin has in charge of his paper,
whom is alleged to be an exconvct and a graduate Of the New York
state reformatory; who can not look you in the eye when in converse
with you; whom the postal authorities are investigating, and who is
alleged to travel under various names in various places and to suit
various occasions, is not the type of man to inspire public confidence
In the Nat Goodwin company, however meritorious it may be, or how
rich the properties which it is placing before the investing public
Perhaps MI. Goodwin, in the whirl and excitement of a continuous
performance of honeymoons, theatres, divorce courts and damage
suits, has never had time to read the Nevada Mining News, or to
make the acquaintance or to learn the record of the man whom the
II not Mr. Goodwin might proftably spend a few days in Nevada,
Strengthening up the affairs of his concern, and deodorizing the ed-
torial department of the News.

KNOCKING HAS NO EFFECT.

Despite the hammeTing by the Nevada Mining News, edited in Reno
by George Graham Jacob Simon Stripes Rice Herzig, to which the
dividend paying Tonopah and Goldheld stocks have been long sub
jeced, they continue to go ahead just the same. and other prop
critics which the same "authority"( CD has persistently claimed can
not and wiz not make good are maliciously refusing to carry out the
prophesies OF the editor of many names, and re making good with
a vengeance. Booth, of Goidneld, for instance, has vindicated to the
fullest extent the faith Of and expenditures by It's owners, and yes
terday the stock was strong at SO cents at the close of the market.
With a strong ledge of rich ore opened up, and unremihing and ably
directed work in progress in the property day and night, those who
are In touch with the conditions of the property predict that # will
be an early shipper. Watch Booth stock climb to a dollar.

SOMETHING DOING IN NEVADA

That the state of Nevada is getting ready for great doings In 1909
a casual reading of the local papers of the state would convince the
most grouehy of knockers. and pessimists. Hardly an issue Of these of
these publications but contains mention of rich ore uncovered in some
property, and mills and shelters, some of which are just at the plan
and specification stage, others in course OF construction. ana still
Others completed and ready to begin crushing ore. From Godfeld,
Tonopah, Bunfrog, Rhyoie, Ely, Yerington, Chafey, Seven Troughs,
Gold Circle, in fact, from all points, the same story is repeated. Even
should some of the projected milling plants fail to mateialize, there
will be enough Of them carried to completion to give the state a
fresh start. With mills to reduce the ores, mines now known to be
in good, but whose ores arc not of sufficient richness to warrant the
heavy expense of shipping to smelters, will be started up, and these
in turn will beget more mills. 1he effect of the recent financial
crisis is gradually dying out, money is becoming more plentiful, and
it is safe to prognoHicate that the coming year will mark the be-
ginning of an era of prosperity such as Nevada has never yet known.

girls, young and inexperienced and
with no protection against the com
