1t now seem assured that both
Genoa, Gardnerville and Mindt n
will have a modern electric light
and power plant says the Reno
Gazette of recent date. The pro-
iect has been under discussion fer
the past several years, but until

f. V. McAvoy, the we'll known
Reno electrician, left for Genoa
this mo ming, with a view, it is
understood of securing data for the
purpose of submitting an estimate
of the cost of the proposed plant.
There is an abundance of water
power within easy roach of Genoa,
Gsrdnerville and Minden, and it
is probable that even Carson will
be inclnded in the plans of those
who are now interested in this
enterprise.

DOUGLAS COUNTY
WILL HAVE GOOD
EXHIBIT AT SHOW

With a determination that the
mineral resources of Douglas eoun-
ty would be fairly we'll represented
at the American Mining Congress
which will meet in Goldfield next
month, Fred Hussman and K.
Christensen have boon diligently
at work gathering samples as we'll
as boxing them for shipment.
Even with their untiring efforts in
this direction great many prop
critics will not be represented un-
less their owners take some inter-
est in this really important work.
The proposition is to get the
ores Of this county before this great
body of mining men so they may
learn what we have to offer the
mining investor and the men who
represent capital for the develop
ment of promising properties. 1t
cannot be denied the many a good
mining property lies dormant in
this county for the lack of neces-
sary capital with which to equip
and place them on paying basis.
To attract capital we must show
what we have to offer and there 10
no better way than to make a
mineral exhibit at the Mining
Congress. Bring in your ores and
the committee here will take them
in charge and ship to Goldfeld.
But few days remain in which
to get the ores catalogusd, SO hurry
your specimens along.

DEPOSIl OF
RARE MINERAL
FOUNDAT CARRIERS

A mineral discovery which il be-
lieved means much to this county
was recently made by f. b. Living
stone a short distance from Carter &
Station. 1t is edge of cnrystal-
lead and is thought to be the first
ore Of that kind to be found in Ne
vada.
No work has been done ON the
property except where an open
cut which crosses the body of ore
at tae discovery point The ledge
varies from foot to Is inches in
width and can be traced for a dis
tance of 1000 feet or more.
Mr.. Livingstone exhibited a
chunk of the ore la town this
week. 1t greatly resembles white
quartz at first glance but close in
spection divulges the characterist C
OF pure lead, both in weight and
appearance.
The value of this class of ore is
not known to the discoverer and
mining men who examined q
specimen threw very little light OH
this point, more than the ore was
not common. Mr.. Livingston took
the ore with him to Oakland where
tests will be made.
