STOCKHOLDERS
WONDERING
At RESULT
Silver Peak Fails to
Pay Dividends

With the big Silve Peak mine and
mill running full time the stock con
tinues TO tumble down hill 1t is
now quoted at 55 cents per share 1t
was put on the market at 81 and
some paid even higher. In its his
tory it has paid 20 cents in dividends,
and it looked like big concern
which would resemble the Home
stake.
The stockholders, and there are
many in this city, are wondering
where all the coin goes. it made
noise like a mine when started but it
has resulted in an empty echo up to
the present time A statement from
this big holding would be welcome
by those who put their hard cash in
to the proposition.

While the work is progressing on
the old North Carson mine and there
is hope that something mighty good
in mining way will be developed by
the parties who are backing this ven
ture. and where there is lot of hard
rock being broken in the effort to get
under the old shaft by the new tun-
mel. stock certificate OF the old mine
has shown up This certificate has
more than passing interest from the
fact that a lot of stress has been laid
on the heavy capitalization of mod
ern-day boom mines. The million
share game. and all that
The certificate of stock at hand
reads as follows:
The North Carson Silver Mining
Company. Incorporated October 10,
1874 Located in Ormsby County,
! Nevada.
This certifies that Gardner and
Hooker. trustees, are entitled TO fifty
shares. transferable on the books of
the company by endorsement there
on and surrender of this certificate. y
In one corner appear Capital
Stock FIVE million dollars. 100000
shares at $50 each"
1t is evident that there was nothing
cheap about this company that put up
big hoist, took out some bullion and
fnally went broke.
Another interesting subject is an
endorsement on the back of this Ger
5. paid Nov E. 1876. The main office
was in San rancisco and the certi-
ficate so testihes.
Possibly many OF the Carsonites
will remember more of this class of
history. but this evidence is sufficient
to show that here was something
doing at one time at the North Car
son.
The property since the days of its
five million dollar hoatation, has had
many changes of luck The Dahl
people took it over and kept up the
work for years, Finally when Dahl
died the mine was left jumpable

GOOD ROAD
PETITION
Would Raise Fund for
Kings Canyon Road

This afternoon Wills Broughcr. \.
Cohn and Judge Bartine started with
a petition among the taxpayers ask
ing that the county borrow five thou
sand dollars for road work, the tax
to be raised As cents next year to
meet this loan. The money is 10 be
applied to the King Canyon road and
in case the plan carries is to be put
10 work at once. Many OF the heavy
taxpayers signed the petition. while
others refused To sign il. claiming
that they had fought for a lower rate
oi tax for years and did not want this
burden falling at one time.
Others who signed stated that they
would sooner put the money up at
once. have the road and be done with
IT, 1t is a case Of individual opinion.
and unless sixty per cent OF the tax
payers sign up the Commissioners
will refuse to ask for the money. As
stated yesterday il i matter wholly
in the hands OF the taxpayers. II
they want the money for the road
they must pay the higher rate OF tax
alton Ii they do not want it they
can state so.
The Commissioners in passing this
up directly to the people have taken
the only logical stand They were
elected To reduce taxation where pos
siblc and unless the taxpayers, the
people who run this county on their
coin. want this higher rate OF taxa
ton the Commissioners refuse to act
Up to the present time those ap-
preached have readily sig9ned the pc
ttion asking for the money.
