BELMONT REACHES
HIGHEST POINT IN
ITS HISTORY TODAY

Tonopah belmont stock today
reached the highest point in its his
tory -SS7h bid and $3.50 asked,
with sales at the former figure.
This, in part, id fulfilling the pre-
dietions that have been made dur,
ing the last thirty days. that Bel
mont before the middle OF March
would reach the ten-dollar mark
and viewing the tenaeity with which
II has hung about and above the
nine-dolar point for the past few
days there is every reason to be-
iieye now that 1t will strike ten
dollars and perhaps go little
better.
From a physical standpoint the
mine has never put on such an
appearance as 1t has today The
winze which is being sunk from
the ll60-foot level is being push

As result Of the conference
which was held In Tonopah a few
days ago by representatives of tn,

unoflieially announced that al
agreement has been reached b.
which the Belmont people will con

Much Speculation as to the Final
Outcome of the Controversy.
RAILROAD TAXES FOR MANY YEARS

On account of the recent proceedings
in the Federal Court, there has been
much speculation here as to the final
result, of the controversy.
The Federal Court says that
the bonded debt running for more
than thirty years, must be paid. and
Green county officials say they cannot
pay; that levy has b en- made, but no
one Will Quanfy to collect the taxes.
The bond holders are innocent pur-
chasers, out ON account of the condition
of affairs, We believe they would CON
sent to a compromise, and if they will,
it should be made.
The Court can certainly find way to
collect the bonds If the county persists
IN ietusln- To pay.
For the gUOd of the county, We hope
that an agreement will be reached, and
the county wiped out of debt. Ii q
compromise can be made, so much
could be paid yearly until the bonds
men are satisfied
T1yiOr county Is in the same condi-
tion and she should make a settlemen nj
in like manner as mentioned ABOVE.
