NEVADA ALEADER
IN MINING
SPLENDID ADVANCE IN OUTPUT
OF COPPER-COMPARISON is
FAVORABLE TO THIS STATES
ADVANTAGE.

Among the precious metal nine,
of America two Of Nevada's take the
lead for dividends paid thus far this
year. Goldfeld Consolidated, with
$1,05S,741 to its credit, leads among
the gold mines of this continent, and
Tonopah of Nevada, with payments
amounting to $780, 900, leads among
the silver. Even the gold mines
ranking second and third-Camp
Bird of Colorado and Homestake OF
South Dakota-come after Tonopah
of Nevada for the amount of divi-
dends paid since the first of the
year, says the Mining Financial
News
One of the marvels of mining is
the ~suddenness with which riches are
accumulated from it. Eight years
ago Tonopah was but a name: five
years ago Goldfield but a desert
waste. How many people who were
comparatively paupers before the
discovery of those camps can we
count today, some with a competence,
others affluent, and still others with
enormous fortunes? Less than even
ty years ago the luxuriant magma
ton of the audacious Dumas dared
to endow the wonderful Monte
Cristo with a fortune of quite twenty
million dollars. Today the million
aire is quite an ordinary mortal, as
millionaires go. No matter from
what source they drew their good
fortunes. it was the mines of Cali
fornia, Australia, Nevada, Colorado,
South Africa, that made such colossal
fortunes possible. And Nevada is
again to the fore enriching the
precious metal stores of the entire
world.
1t was in the domain of copper
that Montana and Arizona led Ne
vada for the first five months of
the present year. But eve in the
production of that metal the Battle
born state is getting her stride. and
the mines in Ely promise to do for
Nevada in copper what other mines
have done for her in gold and silver.
During the month of May but two
mines of Butte City, the Boston and
Montana and the Anaconda, sur
passed the Nevada Consolidated at
Ely in the amount of copper pro-
duced, the Nevada mine outstrip-
ping, in the amount of copper pro-
duced, the North Butte, the Butte
Coalition, the Butte and Boston. the
Washoe, the Parrot. the Trenton
and the Pittsburg and Montana.
When it is remembered that lack
1of smelling facilities alone prevented
the Nevada Consolidated from turn
ing out thus early in its career twice
as much as what it did last month,
! and that the output will in all prob
ability be quadrupled within the next
| two years. and when it is considered
also that Cumberland-Ely, the GirouS
| Consolidated. Ely Central and Others
doubtless will be added to the ranks
of the producers, it may readily be
seen that Montana and Arizona have
real cause to struggle for their cop
| per laurels that Nevada is on her
way to add a crown of copper to the
crown of silver and the crown ol
gold that now decks her brow.
