Information From Reliable Source Says Line ay be Extended
Original Survey Called for Terminus at Tonopah and There
is Possibility of Dirt Flying Within Thirty Days.

Is the Las Vegas and Tonopah
railroad coming to Tonopah?
Developments of the last few
days indicate that the present ter
minus, which is at Goldtield, will
be extended to this city, and this
within the next three months. 1t is
known that the l.. V. & T. is one
of the pet projects of Senator w. A.

interested in this camp, and who
really has the interest of all min
ing camps at heart, having made
his fortune in mining, has contem-
plated extending his line to the ban
ner camp of southern Nevada.
When the l.. v. e T. route was
first surveyed the line at that time
included Tonopah and the road was
to enter this city from the south,
near the ball park. The stakes of
the survey still remain where they
were originally placed, and with
little preliminary work, the work
proper could be started with hardly
any delay.

RECEIVER REYNOLDS.

Last Thursday Judge Breen or
dered Receiver Reynolds to sell ass
shares of the First National Bank
of Elko to Frank Gedney for the
sum of $4,000 cash, or at the rate
of $50 per share. The comptrol-
ler of the currency has ordered an
assessment on the capital stock of
the First National bank, sufficient
sum per share to make good Its
capital stock. 1t is estimated that
this assessment win be $40 per
share.
II the assessment is less than $40
per share Mr.. Gedney agrees to
pay the difference between the as
sessment and $40.
The stock ordered sold belonged
to Oscar j.. Bert L. and Minnie d.
Smith and it was held by the Eu-
reka county bank as security for
some of the loans made TO the
Smiths by that bank. The stock was
attached by the First National bank
but under the terms of the sale to

that a petition has never been sent
TO Senator Clark, who. it is under
stood, does not ask one cent or
any special privileges from this city.
This is something unusual in rail-
road circles, but with western men
back of a western railroad, the nat
ural result would be the use of
western manners.
We would suggest that mass
meeting be held at an early date
and hurry the petition on to it's
destination. This is the most oppor-
tune moment for such action, and
the iron should be struck while in
an incandescent heat.
Tonopah people have never asked
Senator Clark to build to Tono-
pah-an important fact that was
simply overlooked by our people
when the Las Vegas and Tonopah
road was being constructed.
Tonopah does now ask Senator
Clark to extend his road from Gold
field to Tonopah.
The date of the mass meeting will
be announced in tomorrow's Bo-
nanZa.
