CUSSES THE FUTURE

Canyon, the only difficult piece of road
bed for the entire length OF the Nevada
Copper Belt, are Of the opinion il can
be completed within the next ninety
days. The balance of grade from Ma
son City to the property of the Nevada
Douglas will be completed before that
time and shipments Of $50 tons of gyp-
cum a day should be going forth from
that property before the first day OF
June. Before the end of February the
smelter will be under way and work will
at once start up on nearly every prop
erty of merit in the district"
How many OF us realize the tre-
mendous increase in our population,
these changes must bring about and ap-
preciate the new avenues of opportunity
opened up because of the requirements
of additional people. Our towns will at
once experience steady and substantial
growth; many new business enterprises
will spring up. and farming will con-
tinue on a larger scale than ever. Be-
sides the new field for investment
opened up there will be greatly in
creased demand for milk, butter, eggs
and meat and the opportunities for fruit
growing, truck farming, poultry raising.
dairying and berry growing will be ufi-
equaled any place. There is trenieii-
duous acreage in both of these valleys
which can easily be put under water
without waiting for the complstion of
larger canals. individuals are doing II
every day
Anyway you look at the future of
this country you cannot help see
ing amazing opportunities. Nearly any
thing men of energy will turn their
hand to they will be able to coin money.
With facilities for treating and trans
porting our wonderful tonnage of ore,
with vast supply of pure water flow
ing through two broad valleys of fertile
soil; with splendid social and educational
facilities and unquestionably the health
lest climate in the world, no country in
which ! have ever been. and l have
travelled great deal, presents such ar
incompatible variety of excellent op-
portunities.

THE future of the Yerington Mining
district and the agricultural possibilities
OF Mason and Smith valleys are almost
too good to be true said Superintend-
ant Arentz of the Nevada Douglas to a
group of friends. one evening during
the early part of the week, in the read
ing room of the Commercial Club.
THE transition period" he continued,
is close at hand. Instead of spending
our private funds in the development of
our mines as has been the case for the
past four years we will soon be able to
market our product and from the re-
turns, in addition to being able to
prosecute the blocking out of ore on
much larger scale, will also pay eonr-
nous dividends. Instead of farming in
the old-time wasteful way, we are
rapidly adopting the new methods of
intense cultivation of our lands. The
few ranches remaining in the valleys,
not cut up into farming tracts, have also
wonderfully improved. The owners are
rapidly adopting new systematic bus
mess rules and instead of few furs and
six-shooters making up the furnishings
OF ranch house you now see large
buildings with offices equipped as ele-
gantly as in any of our cities, including
telephones and stcnographers.
THE change this coming year will be
of the most stupenduous and spectacular
character. Nearly $4,000 additional
acres of land. in Mason Valley alone.
are being irrigated by individuals and in
the spring will be under cultivation.
The Simpsons have recently completed
several miles of ditch in Smith Valley
along which will soCn be numerous
profitable farms. Besides having be-
tween forty and fifty million dollars of
copper ore actually blocked out in our
mines, we have conservatively speaking,
at least an additional one-hundred and
fifty million dollars of ore in sight and
partially blocked out, moreover, we have
one of the largest and purest deposits
of gypsum in the world which is simply
waiting upon the completion of the
railroad to transport it.

prophecy that in two years to come there
will be possibly three thousand miners

not be good collateral to borrow money
on. at bank. Moreover, if the same
conditions prevail in Mason, two years
hence, as at present time exists, il is
extremely doubtful IL Mason will be
able to pull a solitary miners vote. The
experience at Pullman. Illinois, is still
fresh in the minds OF the lab oring man.
Much, to the amusement of the COM
munity, he asserts that he will cut Lyon
County into pieces and give it away.
The defining or changing the boundary
lines OF county is the duty of the
Legislature. and unless a bill is prop
erly presented by those members elect
ed from the county TO be cut up, there
is nothing to be acted upon. When il
comes to electing members to the legis-
lature, the people will see to it, that
only those who represent the majority
interests and can qualify, will be elected
and not those unprincipalled enough to
attempt to sell or give away what be-
longs to the people they represent.

from the ceiling ii will drop to the floor
OF this chamber and will keep piling up
until the surface is reached, transform
ing this enorinaus column into a ware
house of copper ore, which can be taken
out through the chutes just as the
smelter requires it. in any amounts from
100 to 1000 tons a day
This simple method of taking out the
metal will be great saving and add
greatly to the value of the mine One
machine man and helper will be able to
break down from sixty to eighty ton
day, Some time ago it was estimated
that the ore of this mine could be mined,
freighted and turned into blister cop
per at SS.40 ton, but this inexpensive
method Of m ming was not then known
and will greatly reduce the cost. Ii
will require smelter of capacity OF
500 ton day. three years to treat the
ore above the lowest tunnel in this one
column alone, the net value of which,
at The least calculation, is 81. 500. 900
In all likelihood the other chutes or col
umns of ore will be mined in similar
manner. The process which will be
used to take out the low-grade lime and
iron was not learned. Several wines
are being put down from the lowest
tunnel level. ranging in depth from %
to so feet. all in the same grade of ore.
and as soon as 100 feet of depth is ac-
quired in all of them, and that level
blocked out, tremendous working
shaft will be sunk from the surface.
To estimate the quantity of the ore
above the lowest tunnel level is hazard
ing a guess. Without continuing the
drifts or crosscuts in search of new bod
les it would not be surprising that when
the present bodies in sight are blocked
out, there will be ready to stope 4,OO0,-
900 tons. 1t would be extremely diffi-
cult to estimate any amount less than
1000, 600 tons. and to be on the safe
side, say we cut the average value down

would be IS, 900, 900, or double the pres
ent value of the stock.
From the foregoing figures it will be
seen that the Mason Valley is not only
a real mine. but is shaping itself to be-
come one of the largest producers in the
world. The attention of mining men
and the advocates of legitimate and in
telligent mining should be called to the
quality of management and development
of this property, by way of contrast to
the wild speculative condition existing
in Nevada three years ago. If the men
in control were simply stock boomers,
by constructing srnelter and treating
the high grade they could have forced
the stock to the $40 mark.
Why don't you build a smelter3 Is
the question asked by nearly every WIS.,
itor escorted through the mine, and
juggling from the expression on the su-
perintendent's face, he dearly loves that
question.
Before constructing a smelter the
owners must know beyond all perad-
venture of doubt that they are construct
ing the kind that will treat the ore sue.
cessfully and at the lowest possible cost.
In the same careful way they explored
their ore bodies and solved the problem
of extracting the ore they are planning
the smelter.

to say, are not going to consent to those
portions of Lyon county being amputa-
ted without first being chlorofomed.
Are you aware of the fact that the rail-
roads are in favor of the court house
being built in Yerington? In case the
court house is reconstructed in Yering-
ton, it is doubtful if there will even be
bond issue. Besides the 5000 sub
scribed last spring. within the past week
$4,000 more has been subscribed.
IF we must part with the northern
part of our county territory will it not be
the wiser policy to wait until the smell
ter adds million dollars to the countv's
assesssbie valuations and until there is
a bullion tax sufficient to make up the
loss:n
Do YOU think that that $40. 900 OF Mr..
Kidder's is sufficient to pay the cost of
these numerous amputations, or do you
think those certain portions referred to
are afraid that the fumes from the smell
ter might injure the soils
do you wish to see the county tax
levy increased rather than diminished"
/ Diminished, of course. That is why
we desire to move the court house to

Every little helps. Move the court house
to Mason Valley and it is one more step
toward the dollar tax rate and YOU.

QUERIES
AND
ANSWERS

Ask yourselves these questions.
says the Mason Valley News.
Are there not county matters to be
vitality affected that are more important
than the question of what town shall
boast the county seat?"
What are they and how do they affect
the county seats
What are the possible gains to be
expected by moving the county seat
from Dayton to Yerington'
The gains in very short period OF
time would construct court house, into
one corner of which could be stored
every structure at present time existing
in town of Mason. The savings mile
age, sheriff fees, etc, alone in any in :
suit portant amounts to from four to
six hundred dollars.
"Are not these possible gains greatly

suit in the matter of taxable valua
tions?'
