CANDIDATES FOR PRE-EMINENCE.

II is no disparagement to the other mining states to say that
Nevada holds undisputed leadership in the list of profits retained
by individual mining companies during the current year. Not only
the first place, but also the second place in respect to dividends
paid to shareholders during the first ten months Of 1909 is held
by a Nevada company. Detail were given in an article published
in last weeks issue Of the Mining Investor.
1t is the great Goldfeld Consolidated Mining company which
leads the list of all American mines in point Of profits this year,
and the Tonopah Mining company comes second. These two Ne
vada mines ouuank for the year even the record-breaking Home
stake mine of South Dakota, which has to It's credit the largest ag-
gregate of dividends paid since incorporation, although not as high
percentage of dividende to capitalization as many other mining
enterprises.
The tribute Of praise justly due to Nevada does not, as we
nave said, detract in any way from the greatness of the other min
ing states. Each one has due cause for Boosting along some par
ucular line. When a western state which has held the leadership
for a time in some particular respect, finds herself dropping be-
a new claim to the front rank. When Colorado lost the title to
pre-eminence in silver production she promptly developed her gold
resources and took al undisputed lead in the output Of the yellow
metal incidentally when she found that there was a mistaken
impression that her entire area was an arid wilderness of rocky
mountains with minerals her only resource, she proceeded to de-
yelop her agricultural wealth and at recent expositons has been
sweeping away prizes from the socaned farming states. Her lus-
oious western slope peaches, her Rocky Ford melons and other
fruits command the highest prices in the Atlantic coast states and
have even found a market abroad.
We can picture California, chagrned at losing her first place
as the golden state, turn her attention to a hitherto little de7el-
oped resource and taking, as se now has, first place among all
the states for value of oil production.
Arizona is making good her claim to pre-eminence in cop.
per. With a view to any possible contingencies that may qrs. in
the future, Arizona is quietly developing her resources in the line
OF precious metals and may yet crowd some of the older gold pro-
ducers into the rear ranks Mining Investor.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.

A commonwealth in which nearly every citizen owns the roof
that shelters him, in which peace and contentment are enjoyed in
large measure by all classes, and pinching poverty is almost en-
tirey unknown, is indeed blest by Divine favor. 1t is fitting that
our citizens, in grateful recognition of the bounteous gifts they
have received, return feryent thanks to Almighty God for His be-
nefcent care and protection,
The year now drawing to a close has been replete with the
manifestations of Gods goodness to us. No epidemic of disease
has ranged within our borders. Prosperity has returned to cleo
trhy our dropping industries. Labor has found steady and profit
able employment, and every home has felt the comfortable in
huence which attends material progress in all lines of useful en-
deavor.
Now, therefore, l. D. s. Diekerson, lieutenant and acting gov
ernor of the state of Nevada, in conformity with the proclamation
oil the president of the United States, do hereby designate as a
day OF general thanksgiving Thursday, the 25th of this present No
vember, and do urge and recommend that throughout the state
the people cease from their wonted occupations, and at their sew
eral homes and places of worship reverenty thank God for the
manifold blessings He has bestowed upon us.
Given under my hand and the Great Seal of the State of
Nevada, at the capitol, in Carson City, this goth day of Novem-
der, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and nine.
D. S. DICKERSON,
by the Governor: Lieutenant and Acting Governor.

MANY THANKS.

The president of the United States has seen fit to proclaim
that today be set aside a s a day Of Thanksgiving. This act has
been concurred in by the governor of this state And to make
sure that the question is properly brought before the public, we
again second the motion.
The old battle born state Of Nevada has much to be thankful
for. The past year has been a prosperous one, despite the efforts
of the pessimists, who have been crying that they could see the
approaching dawn OF prosperity in the horizon. Avaunt, knockers.
Our many mines are working fun blast giving employment to
thousands of miners. Our business houses are engaged in hand
ling all the business they ian possibly attend to without going to
an enormous expense in enlarging their quarters. Our rural
community, which at the present time is small, reports a prosper
Gus year. In fact everybody is of the opinion that the past twelve
months have not been 81 bad.
Therefore it has been moved and seconded that we give
thanks today. The motion is carried. To give thanks proper.
means much turkey, with an accompaniment of pumpkin pie and
cranberry sauce, for who ever heard of a person being thankful
with an empty stomach and no meal ticket? BY 8 O'Clock tonight
huge chunks of thanks should be observable with the aid of a
field glass, floating heavenward, for if there was ever a thankful
community in this wide world, 1t certainly is Tonopah.

OTHERS DESERVE CREDIT.

An editorial in another paper printed in this city, sounds the
plaudhs of Cooper and Nage, whe are operating a lease in the
Glendale district. Not that the article of commentator is I'M
warranted, but it is our belief that the people back of the two
men, should also be given some consideration.
When Glendale was first discovered, it was Tonopah money
that went into the new camp. This resulted in the loss of many
thousands of dollars for local people, and the ones back Of the
Cooper-Nagle lease were no exception. When work was first start
ed on this property, the sinews were provided by men from Tono-
ph. Cooper and Nagle were furnished with supplies and even
paid wages for their work. They have undergone no prfvations or
hardships, and a glance into their cabin at Glendale at the pres
ent time would disclose a goodly quantity of provisions.
1t is our belief that credit should be given to those deserv-
ing, for there are many hundreds of miners who would take an
open up ground.

THEY HAVE BEEN DOING 1T FOR YEARS.

Speaking of things unreasonable, did you ever have a package
come by Wells Fargo express? An instance where it seems the
charge was exorbitant: A Manhattan man recently paid 20 cents
a pound for express matter weighing four pounds, when it is gem
orally understood that the express companies charges are the
same as those of the postohce under that weight. We admit that
times are good and money plentiful, but. when a package comes
with the charges prepaid and we are compelled to dig up addi
tonal charges at the local Office before we secure said package. it
does seem that 1t is rubbing t. in on Discrimination Mail.

Dear Lord of Love, to thee abov
We give our thanks this day; e
And ask of Thee, where'er we be,
