NEVADA PRESS COMMENT


Lots Of Truth in This
When one OF the most prominent
mining promoting firms of the State
finds their officers indicted for using the
mails to defraud the gullible public. it
ought to be time for some Of the smaller
fry to take notice. Validating in the
State Of Nevada is doomed, and it means
much for the future welfare Of the
mining interests that this is SO. A State
Law has been enacted that will get the
wrongdoer In one way. aud when Uncle
Sam withdraws his aid in the schemes,
their day Is done. The dull times, IL
such they are, that have visited Nevads
during the past year. were the outcome
to . great extent Of the validating thai
had been allowed in the State and tt
such an extent had this been done, the
average investor was afraid to trust his
money in any mining proposition.
This injured the market for stock that
was being sold in q legitimate manner
and for q legitimate purpose, and to-day
the man that offers stock for sale is con-
sidered. to . greater OF less extent, to be
q fakir and one who should be duly
watched.
Let Q few of the fake promoters be
placed behind the iron bars aud lei
Nevada show that they viii stand
for nothing but legitimate mining propo'
sitions and capital will be coming for
ward to assist in the development Of
the mines and the State.-Carson City

with all he met. Without doubt he
will have the hearty support OF all the
people here in striving to preserve our
trees. and growing more of them.
There is another thing that should
receive the notice of our State. or Of the
United States, and that is something
should be done to restrict the large
bands of sheep from utterly running our

only a few years when even the sage
brush will be gone and the valleys will
be utterly barren deserts.

against l.. l.. Patrick of the firm OF

O'Farrell Of the same firm. for using the
United States mails for the purpose Of
defrauding DIR. Otto Klietsch of San

1906, in the town of Goldfield. enter into
an agreement with W. E. Mitchell tc
handle a large amount of stock of the
Manhattan Mizpah Mining Company,
and that in the carrying out of THEN
agreement they advertised largely with
a pamphlet known as the market
Letter" and by this means did cause
various men to write to them and by
the correspondence thus gained were
able to dispose of large amounts of the
stock. The money received from this
stock did not go to the benefits of the
property but was divided up among the
various parties of the deal. and as such
did not intend to improve the property
nor to benefit the men who invested
their money, as it was represented
would be done.

Mining Investments Guarded

The following statement taken from
the Tonopah Bonanzs regarding the
Act passed by the recent Legislature. for
the purpose Of putting q stop to wild
eating" In the mining interests. seems
TO have q strong ring Of effectiveness:
ION April is. 1909. there will go into
effect and become q law the famous
"~wildcat" bill that was introduced into
the Nevada Legislature BY Senator Zeb
Kendall of Nye. The substance OF this
bill was Il offer protection to mining
investors against the methods Of un-
scrupulous mining promoters.
80 after the fifteenth day Of April
all stock issued will be stamped across
the face of the certificate in large legible
letters the word promotion" OF
streasury," thus insuring the investor
that his purchase is what it was
guaranteed to represent. In the
months of April and November every
mining company. both foreign and local.
will be obliged to furnish the County
Recorder with q certified statement OF
the amount Of work done on every claim.
and the amount OF money expended.
This informs the investor Of the actual
condition Of the company in which he
holds stock, and will also induce many
TO invest their money in the mines OF
Nevada. Prior to this the stockholders
were informed annually as to the con-
dition Of the treasury. should the
directors of the company see ut, and
then there was a probability that the
report would be conspicuous by its brief
ness.
Another feature of the bill that will
aid materially in the collection Of the
State bullion tax is the paragraph stipu-
lating that the amount of the bullion
tax paid during the preceding six
months shall accompany the report OF
the secretary to the County Auditor.
By this method the amount paid into
the bullion tax is advertised and will
show the paying corporations. and will
prove as an incentive for all companies
to meet this obligation"
This Act goes further than any
preceding legislation designed for the
same purpose. While this Law has been
somewhat tardy in enactment, the
return of mining prosperity in Nevada
will be materially FASTENED by its wist
provisions at this time. This Law
places both foreign and home mining
corporations on exactly the same foot
ing. 1t applies to all mining cor
porations operating in this State. 1
makes investment in mining property
and stocks as safe as an investment cal
reasonably be made by law.
