GOLDFIELD ANGRY
AT LOS ANGELES

"A uleSSdS6 I6C6IN6u yGoISl uehy bJ tiiO
Sierra Madre club from Goldfield, stat
ing that the mining camp had been in
formed there would be no representa-
tives of Los Angeles business men at
the mining congress and that Goldfeld
was so sore that threats had been made
to call of California day. caused con-
sternation among the members who
have in charge the special train that is
to carry the boosters, and stimulated
the committee to renewed efforts to get
a representative crowd.
The false impression which Goldfeld
received was caused by a telegram from
the chamber of mines announcing that
the organization had abandoned the
plans for a special. The Sierra Madre
club had already arranged for special
for those of it's members who desired
to go, and had reservations for thirty.
The action of the chamber of mines
induced the club to make its train a
public one, and a committee was imme-
diately appointed to solicit business
men to take advantage of the oppor-
tunities of the trip to get acquainted
with the consumers of the great camp.
The telegram referred to was ad-
dressed to Sidney Norman, secretary of
the Sierra Madre club, and was as fol-
lows:
Up to Los Angeles
NIOlQI1elu very sore over CdllNtIldLlOil
chamber of mines excursion and not
understanding that you are bringing
big party. San Francisco now here
with sixty people and band. We must
beat them. Tell the people that Los
Angeles is gone If she doesn't come
through right this time.
"MAYLAND."
Mr.. Maryland is the representative of
the Union Tool company and is char

He went to Goldfield Saturday as del
egate from the city of Los Angeles
to the mining congress, accompanying
Douglas White of the Salt Lake road
in his private car. Maryland is doing
his utmost to recover the ground lost
to San Francisco, and the excursion
committee is working hard at this end
to take a record breaking crowd. A
change will probably be made so that
the train, instead of going to Ludlow
on the regular Santa Fe passenger, will
run special all the way from Los Ange-
les, which will get the crowd in there
early enough Friday to participate in
the last day of the session of the con-
gress.
The committee already has enough
reservations to insure three and possi
bly, four cars. One of the cars will be
a buffet, and the steward of the club,
NJ. Chenard will go along to keep the
boys from the horrors of Death Valley
thirst. In Goldfeld the train will be
parked at the Fifth avenue station,
where it can easily be reached, and will
be used for sleeping purposes.
The committee wishes any one who
desires to go to call up the club and
make reservation.
