San PEDRO NOW
GREAT LUMBER PORT

San Pedro, name almost unknown
east of the Mississippi, is today one of
the biggest lumber receiving ports of
the country, according to the figures
of her collector of customs.
The gazetteers of eight years ago
assigned less than four lines Of de-
scription to San Pedro. 1t was de-
scribed as "a bay and inlet of the
Pacific ocean, in California, los miles
southeast of Santa Barbara, 33 degrees,
48 minutes north That was all. To-
day it is known as the ocean port for
the immense horticultural and COM
mercial activity that centers about
Los Angeles.
San Pedro's custom house figures
show receipts last year of over 500
million board feet of lumber. This was
largely redwood, Douglas fir and yell
low pine, brought in by coast vessels
from the forests of the northwest. Ac-
cording to the department of commerce
and labor, New York g coastwise re-
ceipts of southern pine, for the year
ending December 25, were a little un-
der 400 million feet. Chicago received
by water, for the full calendar year
1909, not quite $40 million feet OF
all kinds of lumber exclusive of logs;
North Tonawanda, N. Y, received
over 10 million; Ludington, Mich,
nearly 80 million; Cleveland, about ~
million and Detroit, little over So
million. TIE arrival of redwood pine
and fir, at all the ports of San Fran
cisco bay totaled 900 million feet.
The lumber arrivals at San Pedro
n no oG h. L. = =.
not only of southern Cali
fornia but also of the inland south
west. The ruit-growing section OF
southern California consumes much
lumber, most of which is cut a full
thousand miles to the north, but
Idaho and Oregon lumber
is also distributed by rail from south
ern California to many inland points.
Despite the cost of the long ship transit
added to the rail freight charges, the
competition of lumber shippers who use
the all-rail routes from the northwest
coast states, or from the east, can
be successfully met at several Of those
points by the ocean and rail route
shippers.
The lumber business of the match
less forests of the northwest has been
fighting against great odds in the Miss
isippi valley and easetern markets be-
cause of the cost of transportation.
''In the Pacific coast states, which con-
tain so large a part of the total stand
of national forest timber,'' says the
Forester of the U. department of
agriculture, in his annual report for
1909, "sales are made only when a
fair price is offered and only under re-
strictions which safeguard the future
welfare of the foreest Both these con-
ditions tend to restrict sales in a re-
gion where timber is at present so
abundant and so cheap. The
opening of the Panama canal will of
itself almost revolutionize the situa-
tion. Cutting which cannot now be
made in the best way for the welfare
of the forest, because only the relative
ly high grade of timber can be sold,
will then be practicable under much
more favorable conditions.

REPORTED ABB
SORPT|ON OF ". P.

Thursdays Denver Times contains
the following article in regard to
changes in the D. & R. G. and Western
Pacific:
Edward Hawley is said to have So
cured important holdings in the Dem
yer & Rio Grande and is now declar-
ed to be in position to dictate the
traffic policy Of that road and the
Western Pacific.
1t has been confirmed officially that
Mr.. Hawley is a large stockholder IN
the Western Pacific, but his holdings
in that road are not sufficient to give
control. His domination of affairs in
the Western Pacific is declared to bc
due to acquisition of stock in the Den
yer Il Rio Grande, and his position Ii
said to be so strong that he recently
named vice president for the Dem.
yer & Rio Grande and Western Pacific
over the head of President E. +.
Jeffery.
"The Western Pacific has 75,00o,-
600 stock outstanding. The Denver q
Rio Grande acquired $4,000, 900 or
two-thirds of the entire issue. The
Denver & Rio Grande then deposited
all of this stock with the Bankers
Trust company of New York as collat-
eral security for it's recently authorized
$780, 900 bond issue. That deal
ties up the Western Pacific stock 30
that no person or company can secure
majority of it without acquiring
control of the Denver & Rio Grande.
Mr.. Hawley got into the Western Pa.
ciic through the acquisition by that
company of the Alameda and San
Joaquin Valley railroad, but he owns
less than $25,000,000 stock as that 10
all that is in the hands of the public.
edwin Hawley is reported in the
east as having acquired controlling
interest in the Denver 4 Rio Grande,
thereby getting control Of the West
ern Pacific, or has made an alliance
with George Gould.
"Last November Thomas Schumach-
er, of the Ell Paso & Southwestern, was
elected vice president of the Denver 4
Rio Grande and Western Pacific roads,
and put in charge Of the traffic de-
partment of both roads, and it is
learned that he was called east to con-
fer with Mr.. Hawley and received his
from Mr.. Hawley person
ally."

GOOD OUTLOOK FOR
NEVADA Mines

Up to the present time the mines of
central and northern Nevada have
produced upwards Of three hundred
millions of dollars. From now on this
amount will be largely and rapidly in
creased from the output of several
great camps well-proven, but as yet
not equipped with sufficient machin-
cry to handle large tonnage. In fact
the present will be the first year of
great effort on the National, Gold
Circle, Jarbidge, Bannock and other
wonderful recent discoveries in Hum
boldt and Immediately adjoining coun-
ties of the northern tier of Nevada.
In this part of Nevada gold and
other precious metals are found almost
wherever one digs for them. The
whole country seems mineralized and
so many high grade discoveries have
been made in the last ls months tina,
ordinary ten-dollar ore is not consid.
cred seriously, unless in very large
lodges.
The fact that this part of Nevada
is well watered by streams and springs
makes Prospecting less hazardous than
in the northern country: also that we
have more railroads and other regular
mears of transportation with supply
stations more frequent, is great aid
Conditions here are ideal for the
prospector or investor and there is no
doubt of great activity all along the
line this year and for years to come.
The rich mines discovered here
forty years ago proved the value OF
the sectior Occasionally one meets
with an old prospartar who forty years
ago discovered r'ch lodges in this
country Int e'r'ng to tie then remote
conditions, Indians etc. never located
These pioneers are nrw re-v'siting the
eosrtrv to see il they are still I'M
located In one instance the old pros
nnetor fonnd his old claims INDICATED

Shearing at the Winnemucca corrals,
which was closed down Monday even
ing on account of the cold weather,
was resumed again yesterday, since
which time the shearers have been en-
gagged On the band Of Frank Garteiz.
1t is expected that this flock will be

longing to James Corbiel.
Sheep Free From Disease.
State Sheep Inspector Holt started
in this morning at the west side cor
rails on his regular spring trip of in
spection. Mr.. Holt stated to repre-
sentative Of the Silver State that the
sheep at this point were evidently free
from disease of all kinds, and gave it
as his opinion that but little dipping
would be required in Humboldt county
this spring. While apparently in a
healthy condition, the sheep are thin,
showing the effects Of the hard winter
through which they have passed
Three Bands Cross Humboldt River.
During the last two or three DAYS,
the Saval brothers have crossed the
river at this point with three bands Of
sheep, aggregating about $500 head,
en- route from Black Rock desert to the
shearing pens at Golconda.
The indications are that more sheep
will be sheared at Golconda this year
than ever before, due to the fact that
many of the large woolgrowers in the
eastern part of the county had their
local plants badly damaged or entirely
washed away by the recent flood
Thomas Nelson, who has always shear
ed at home, stated yesterday that he
would probably drive his flocks, mum.
bering about $4,000 head, to the Col
conda shearing plant this year.
Large Number Of Pelts Coming In.
The pelts that were taken from the
carcasses of sheep that perished during
the winter are being brought in for
shipment. Yesterday Mirondeborde
brothers arrived from Kennedy with
about one thousand, and today prepa-
rations are being made at the Southern
Pacific station for their shipment.
New Clip Beginning to Move.
The first wool from the 1910 clip
to be sent to market was shipped from
Ryepatch Thursday evening. The con
signment consisted of two cars and was
shipped by the Staunton Bros. to Find
lay, Gardner & Co. w. f. Staunton

and from Ryepatch went to Reno, where
