ROCHESTER, CANYON ENTHUSI-
ASTS BELIEVE CAMP Is IN FOR
BOOM LIKE THAT OF EARLY
NEVADA DAYS.

NEVADA DAYS.
1t is like turning back a page in
the history of every mining camp of
the north and the west of recent
years to wander through the hotel
Hobbies of Lovelock and the newly
boarded barrooms of the camps in
Rochester canyon. Men who are ia
nous among the mining fraternity
from Nome to Mexico are seen at
every hand, and professional STAN
peders, who have never missed a
trick in the last twenty yeas, are
there with the old excitement shining
in their eyes and old hopes bubbling
from their lips, says the Reno Jour
nal.
pah are there and men who were IN
the first rush to Rawhide and Haw-
thorne. Now and then a Bullfrog
man shows or one from Rhyolite.
Butte is represented, Salt Lake has a
strong delegation in the game, while
Nome and Fairbanks and even Daw-
son have contributed their qrota of
men once bitten by the Stampede
bug who have never recovered.
All Mining Talk.
The other night in the lobby of the
Big Meadow hotel at Loyelock the
place was packed by a strictly min
ing crowd and there was nothing but
mining talk in the air. Groups of
men stood about discussing deals,
the atmosphere was charged with to-
bacco smoke and that electric feel
ing that che who has experienced a
Stampede will never forget.
Joe Donnelly, one time superinten-
dent for the Consolidated at Gold
field and known TO mining MEL every
where, was there. Former Lieuten-
ant Governor Hutchinson of Idaho,
now of San Francisco, talked with
Fred Siebert, mining engineer fol-

of them to remain and others hurry

Among all this crowd of old timers
there is general enthusiasm and the
belief expressed hat Nevada is due
for another boom of the old time
flavor. There has been a notable alb
sence of knockers and all have ap-
%parently been anxiously looking for
an opening that they might literally

the new camp.
