TWENTY PROPERTIES
MAKE GOODSPRINCS
Mines in Southwestern Nevada
Show Large Bodies of
Commercial Ore

LAS VEGAS, May 19.-At Good
springs there are twenty properties
showing a high degree of development
and big bodies of lead-zinc ore. Among
those which may be termed mines are
the Yellow Pine, 5000 feet of develop
ment: Monte Cristo, 1900 feet; Milford,
1000 feet Sultan, 200 feet; No. SO, 700
feet: Frederick Ward. 600 feet; West
Brouse, 300 feet: Kansas-Nevada, 800
feet; Ingomar 800 feet; Anchor, 400
feet; Prairie Flower, $50 feet; Robbins
Bros mine 500 feet; which, with the
Alice, Addison, Carbonate King, Taus-
sach and Hoodoo, make up list of
properties with ore of commercial
value that is second perhaps to no
other camp in the southwest, If Ell
dorado be excepted. There is, how
ever, nothing but the most friendly
rivalry between the two districts,
which have the largest bodies of min

course, of any similar mineralized areas
in the whole southwest. The recent

temporary. Large bodies of galena have
been developed in this camp
in several properties, and these mines
are on an Independent and prosper
-ous basis, which no temporary reduc-
tion of prices can seriously or per-
manently affect.

OIL OUTPUT EXCEEDS
THE FIRST ESTIMATE
Over Million and Half Barrels
Were Shipped from Fields
During March

Final figures for the San joaquin
valley oil fields for March, which were
late in coming. show that the output
was larger than at first estimated. es-
pecially in Coalinga. The following is
the detailed final statement:
Coallnga, 1,677,O0O barrels; Kern, riv-
er 1,11O,524; McKittrick, 100000; Mari
copa- Midway. 1,246,524; total, 4,5O2.514,
Storage -McKittrick 216,3OO; Kern riv-
er, 14,437, 400; Coalinga, 90O719; Sunset,
100000; Midway, 10000.
To this should be added 100000 barrels
in Standard tanks at Point Richmond
and 67 900 in the Producers Transpor-
tsrtiun company $ tanks.
South of the Tehachapi not over $50 =
900 barrels are in producers storage,
but with that held by big consumers
the total will be between 100000 and
100000 which is merely touched on
here In the coast fields 200, 900 will COW
er fully. On this basis the total stor-
age may be estimated as 16,3395OO bar
rels in the tanks of the Producers and
the Standard on March 81, and taking
no account Of railroads and other big
consumers.
The amount of money invested in oil
properties of the state exclusive OF
land, is roughly estimated at $113,OOO,-
900, apportioned as follows;
Four thousand two hundred wells
$42, ,000, 900; 2100 miles of pipe lines, Sl2,-
100000: 80 tank steamers, $12, 100000; 30
refneries, $4,000 900; 5000 tank cars &c.
OO0.OOO: 2O000,000 barrels of oil in stor-
age, $4,000, ,000 field equipment, pump
ing machinery etc, $12,250,0OO.
The value OF the land and the money
sunk in wells that never paid would
bring the total to a still larger figure.
Men who are familiar with the oil
deposits of California and Texas say
that 1t is probably conservative to es-
innate the value of the Southern Pa
cific's oil land at $100,000,000 The San
ta Fe has invested and is investing an
aggregate of about $7,000,000 in oil
properties and these are estimated to
be worth today between 100000 and
500, ,000, 900. Like the Southern Pacific
the Santa Fe is buying tie larger part
of its fuel requirements, which lun to
100000 barrels q year although 1t
could easily produce the whole guam
tity at once If so desired.

STRIKE IN MASONIC
HELPS WHOLE CAMP

BRIDGEPORT, Cal, May 19.-The
recent discovery and development on
the New York mining claim is con-
ceded by all who have examined it to
be the most important of recent years
in the Masonic district. AS far as can
be ascertained from the twelve-foot
shaft, there is now seven feet of pay
ore, extending across the bottom. but
no definite estimate OF the size of the
ledge can be made until the shaft Is
timbered and a crosscut run to de-
termine the extent of the discovery.
The find is especially interesting to
the district on account of its locality,
which is about half a mile west from
the Pittsburg-Liberty property and
will fully establish the real value and
permanency of the entire district. The
New York Is owned by M. P. Hayes
and James Logan.

GOLDFIELD, May 19.-Another step
toward the consolidation of the Sand

taken Saturday when the properties
were sold at sheriff's sale and old IN
nv chester A. Lyman, representing the
Wingfield interests. The indebtedness
against the Kendall was $39.5O0 and
S11. 900 against the Sandstorm. AS
quickly as legal formation can be COM
pleted, the consolidation will be per-
fected and extensive development be-
gun by the new company. This should
soon result In adding another big pro
ducer to the Goldfield list, as both
nronerties have a record for produc-
tion in the early days. 1t will also give
employment to quite force of men.

and the cluster of cities and villages
in northern New Jersey. For twenty

have put the number considerably

The most conspicuous cases were those

New Rochelle and other cities in New

all of these were added to the metrop-
oils its total population would proba-
bly, exceed 100000.
The states likewise show gains New
York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Ohio
retain their relative rank as first, sec
ond. third and fourth respectively, but
there is shift in fifth place and in
most of the others. Texas goes to fifth
place. Massachusetts to six, and Mis-
souri, becomes seventh. The state Of
Washington shows the greatest growth
in the decade, with Oklahoma a close
second. Both have more than doubled
their populations. Nevada has also
shown 4 great growth, although she
remains at the foot of the list despite
her gain. Others that show phenome-
nal growth are New Mexico, Califor-
MIA, Colorado, Florida, Oregon. the two

proximately 20 per cent A compari-
son shows that the great Industrial
states are we'll over this figure, while the
agricultural states usually fall behind.
The most phenomenal growth in the
entire nation. outside of one or two of
the recently admitted commonwealth
is on the Pacific coast. The south av-
erages we'll and has kept abreast of
the entire country. The states with
out industries other than farming are
the ones that suffer most. Yet a close
analysis shows that the loss here has
not been so much in the rural districts
themselves as in the small villages and
! towns.
The Daytona daily news. [volume] (Daytona, Fla.) 1903-1926, 1910-12-17

Taking the cities of Los Angeles, Oak
land, Berkeley, Sacramento, San Die
go, San Jose and Pasadena, they show
an aggregate increase from 260,252 in
1900 to 653,317 in 1910. or 151 per
cent. If San Francisco. had enjoyed a
like growth she would have had in
1910 total of S60,3S3.
While it is too much to claim that
but for her calamity she might have
reached this result. since large city
is not apt to show as great percent
age of Increase as a small one under
similar conditions, it is entirely within
bounds to say that the city beside the
Golden Gate would have gone up to
a half million or 100000 but for her
disaster. The more force is lent to
this contention by the fact that some
of the increase in other California
cities is due TO the fugitives from San
Francisco.
Boston's Suburbs Separate
The Bostonians claim that the CEN
sus figures represent only a part OF
the population of their city. since Bos-
ton actually includes Cambridge and
number of other cities that are return
ed separately. If there We're greater
Boston, as there is greater New
York, her population would be 1906
791 instead of the 670,5S5 now re-
turned.
In like manner the Twin Cities in
