William Ernest Mason, former senator from
Illinois, declares that the United States senate is
mere farce and always will be until the people
insist upon eecting the senators themselves. At
a recent meeting in Chicago he said
You may think you have a representative
government, but you have not. One man in the
United States senate can block legislation that
100000 people want. There is too much wor-
ship of the almighty dollar. We are too much
afraid of disturbing business. We should not for.

BOOM TIMES AHEAD
FOR LODI SECTION

One of the places in this section of
Nevada that will join the ranks of the
producers on IN important scale during
the year 1909 will be the Lodi district,
lying southeast of Rawhide, in the same
range of hills.
Already the old Illinois mine, under
the management of the Lodi Mines com
pany has made numerous shipments of
high grade ore to the smelters via Lun
ing, this route requiring a wagon haul
of about fifty miles. At the deeper
levels high grade ore is now being
broken down, varying in values from
$3.50 to $3.50 to the ton. On the dumps
there has accumulated a vast tonnage
of what in Lodi is termed low grade,
but which will yield handsomely to local
treatment.
The Lodi Mines company is meeting
the situation in a business like man
ner. A smclter is in course of erection
that will when completed handle 100
tons of ore daily. The foundation for
this plant is in place and most of the
machinery is on the railroad siding at
Luning. The company is installing one
of the completest machine shops in the
interior of Nevada. They nave the best
talent in the land in charge of these in
stallations.
A huge steam traction engine is now
hauling ore to the station from the
mine and taking in machinery and lum-
Der on the bach haul. The road over
this distance of fifty miles has been put
in good condition by the company and
water stations have been established at
intervals of every few miles. People
going into the camp via the Luning
route will find as good roads as those
going in from Austin or via lone.
The present operations give employ
ment to IS men and the place is assum-
ing all the aspects of a settled and pros
porous community.
A townsite near the Illinois mine
workings has been laid out. Good
roads, especially through Main stree
and the principal cross venue are be-
ing laid out to accommodate the COM
pany's heavy traffic SIS well as the
public.
A water plant, costing from $4,000
to $4,000 has been planned for the new
town. Pipe, which TO lay down at Lodi
will cost $4,000 has been shipped from
the factory. This will bring in an n
Pile supply of water for the town, mine
and smelter. And this work will be
well under Roadway before a single lot
is offered for sale.-Reese River

CYANIDE PLANT FOR BLAIR

Information received by Howard
Murine, who has been in charge of the
Goldfeld- Silver Peak, states that the
machinery and equipment for the new
mill left Los Angeles the early part of
the week. There are five ears of 1T,
and it should be in Blair by next Mon
day.
Mr.. Eddy, of the Eddy Engineering
Works, of that city, will have charge of
the erection, left for Blair Sunday.
Several of the men who will assist in
the work arrived this week, and have
gone out to establish a camp.
The company decided, almost at the
last minute, to add a cyanide plant to
their equipment, which win add greatly
to the saving, although mill tests of the
ore demonstrates that it is a very free
milling proposition blair Press.

of Mines.)
start, the assessments stop and the
stock costs the buyer less money. If it
becomes self supporting after he has
paid two or three assessments. which is
entirely possible, he has a very cheap
stock in a paying mine. In any event
it costs him less than half as much as
the non assessable stock.
The asscssable company cannot fail
for lack of capital. 1t is sure of raising
its money. The assessments are gov
erned by state law, and no stakeholder,
officer, promoter or director, can escape
paying his assessments, or having his
stock sold for assessment.
Assessable Stock Can Be Traded
The stockq of an asscssable company
can be freely traded in on the open
market to an unlimited extent without
any way interfering with the com
pany's success. The more it is traded
in, the better for the stockholders and
the company. If any stakeholder
wishes to sell all or part of his stock,
he has a market OF which to dispose of
it. Thc one who buys it must pay the
assessments from that time on, so that
the company gets the money, regardless
of who holds the stock.
The assessable company can make
regular reports to its stockholders of its
financial condition, and the state of de.
velopment of the property, and give any
and all information that is likely to be
of interest to the stockholders.
The non -assessable company can safe
ly make reports only when it has plenty
of money on hand. This condition
seldom exists with the non assessable
companies. A poor financial showing
kills the sale of its stock.
Assessable Stock Assures Merit
The fact that a stock is asscssablc
assures the buyer that the property is
meritorious. No sane promoter will
select a worthless property on which
to spend his own time and money, and
the fakes never promote asscssablc
stock.
Thus to avoid the fake and the wild
cat and entirely eliminate the unneces-
sary risk of failure for the lack of
capital, / would advise the investor to
buy assessablc stocks and get a straight
run for his money.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1908-12-19
$4,000 Will Make Good Showing

Properly used, $4,000 will do a good
deal of work and make a good showing
on a meritorious property. Under good
management, this amount of money
should last anywhere from six months
to a year, depending On the character
of the property. The treasury stock
having all been sold, the company now
has 1000, 900 shares of stock outstand-
ing. As soon as more money is needed,
it begins levying assessments of a half
cent a share each. To raise the addi-
tional 100000 that the company needs,
will require nineteen assessments pro
ducing $4,000. AS they cannot be
levied oftener than once in 60 days, it
will take three and a half years to levy
nineteen assessments. They will pro-
duce a total of 500, 900. The cost of
levying and collecting assessments is
less than 5 per cent, so that the nine
teen assessments will yield at least
$780, 50 net to the treasury. This, with
the rio,uVV dicdhs Wy
sale of the treasury stock, gives the
company s1oO,25o.
This stock will have cost the buyer
a total of 121a cents per share at the
end of three and a half years. The
assessments should be regarded in the
light of installments of a half cent a
share each, coming not oftener than
once in two months. The installments
would not exceed $3.50 a month on each
LOCO shares. The stock is delivered to
the buyer upon making the first pay
ment.
In this ease the total capitalization
of 100000 shares pays for the devel-
opment of the property. 1t is a square
deal. Everybody contributes, promoter,
officers, directors and all, so that it
costs eaeh stakeholder half as much as
when half of the stockholders have to
nav it all as in the ease of non-asssss-
able stock. The expenses of raising tao
money is much less. The property Is
developed at actual cost to ~stockhold-
ers. If the property becomes self-sup-
porting sooner than was expected at the
