Investments

George Graham Rice, prominently
identified with mining ventures in
southern Nevada, and Sam Durham,
one of the cleverest mining writer's
in the state, arrived last night from
Reno and are registered at the North
ern
Among conservative investors,
said Mr.. Rice last evening, the Ely
stocks are considered first class in
yestments and the same is thought
of all copper stocks which are backed
up by large porphyry properties
especially those which can be worked
with steam shovels. According 10 Mr..
Rice, those buying stocks in copper
properties do not look on ii as a
speculation but consider it more in
the light of an investment, which will
bring sure income.
Mr.. Rice expects to remain in the
camp for couple of days, when
accompanied by Ed. Hoffman, who
has been looking over the district
for him, he will go to Salt Lake.
Mr.. Durham will likely remain here
during the summer. as the cores
