DOCUMENTS FILED
IN P|0CHE MERGER
IMPORTANT PAPERS IN NINE
CONSOLIDATION PLACED ON
RECORD

A number of important documents
were filed for record this week in the
office of County Recorder Garrison
which pertained to the properties of
the Consolidated Nevada-Utah and
Amalgamated Phoebe Mines & Smelt-
ers corporations, says the Phoebe
Record.
One of the documents was a power
of attorney from the Paterson Safe
Deposit & Trust company to S. B.
Eubanks. The Paterson Trust COM
pany is the concern which figured
conspicuously in the financial opera
lions of Ernest r. Woolley while
president of the Nevada-Utah Mines
& Shelters corporation.
The second document of this series
was a release of mortgage from the
Paterson Safe & Trust company to
the Amalgamated Phoebe Mines &
Shelters corporation and which COW
cred all of the properties of the lat
ter located in the Phoebe district.
Following the filing of this docu-
ment came a mortgage from the
Amalgamated Phoebe Mines & Smelt-
ers corporation to the Consolidated
Nevada-Utah corporation involving
the same properties.
Next came a mortgage from the
Consolidated Nevada-Utah corpora
ton to the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Trust company. conveying the mort
gage of the Amalgamated Phoebe to
the Consolidated Nevada-Utah. This
mortgage was executed to secure GER
tain moneys advanced for develop
ment purposes.
Last of all was a mortgage from
the Consolidated Nevada-Utah cor
poration to the Columbia-Knicker-
booker Trust company, trustees. This
contained 1875 closely print
ed pages of approximately 100000
words. enumerating in detail the as
sets of the company. This mortgage
was executed as security for the
payment of 100000 worth of 6 per
cent serial convertible bonds, divided
into nine series, the first becoming
due and payable On July 1, 1918, and
annually thereafter until the year
1927.
1t was through the placing of
these bonds that revenue was deriv-
ed with which to meet the obligations
incurred by the former management
and which has enabled the present
management to enter upon the very
vigorous campaign of development
and production in progress at the
present time.
The county will receive about
$3.50 as fees for the filing and re-
cording of these documents.

We believe these figures are con-
sentative, and show a production of
$53, 100000.
Our. population in 1910 was ST.
0OO. 1t is now about 10000. The
figures show that the production of
wealth amounts to 1891 per capita.
One of my friends remarked that this
was not equally divided. This, how
ever, is the case in all states. II coun-
tries, and we, likely, are no worse of
in that respect than the population
elsewhere.
Metals Production to Grow
From personal knowledge, &C
quired in my travels throughout the
state-it being part of my duty to
keep in close touch with general con-
ditions and prospects, believe that
the production of precious metals
will be greater instead of less In
years to come. The production of
copper will certainly show a great
increase, as plans on foot for greater
Iproduction are so far advanced and
in such strong hands that there does
not seem to be a possibility of cessa-
ton in the line OF greater increase
lin the output of that metal.
The question of live stock for the
future will depend greatly on the
condition of the ranges.
Unless there is a national calam-
ity or great depression, we have a
market for all that Nevada can pro-
duce. Cattle from this state are
shipped to San Diego, Los Angeles,
Seattle and Portland. Our lambs
reach Chicago, Kansas City, Omaha
land San Francisco in train lots.
There is always a demand for all we
can produce. Our mountain ranges,
following close on the snow line, give
such an abundance of choice, green
grass that the lambs we market ex-
eel those of almost any other state
in the union. AS before said, there
is a great demand for them in all of
the principal markets.
The largest ranges of California
and Oregon are being used more and
more for agricultural purposes, which
causes less production of beet and
mutton.
We are improving in an %agricultur-
al way. but the greater part of our
state for all time will be range land
and in years to come we will produce
more cattle and sheep than we have
in the past, OF are now producing.
MOrmOns Help Development
Elko and Humboldt counties are
going ahead in an agricultural way
faster than other portions Of the
state. This is principally on account
of the Mormon settlers who are
reaching out to those counties from
Utah. Those who are coming are a
thrifty, industrious class of people

One of the features OF the session
of the sixth annual convention of the
Nevada Bankers Association this
morning was the reading of an able
address by j. M. Fulton, assistant
general freight n passenger traf-
fic manager of the Southern Pacific
Company, on the of Neva-

Mr.. Fulton said:

views on Nevada, present and future.
Nevada's 1914 Resources

is certainly generally trending up

commodity or success in every un-
dertaking. AS an instance, in 1911
we produced over 100000 in

in 1914. We estimate Nevada will

VISION. OF NEW NAVY
SIR Percy Scott Predicts Submarines
and Airships.

London. June 27.-The recent as
sertions by Sir Percy Scott that bat
tleships are fast becoming archaic
have received wide attention because
was Sir Percy who did SO much to-
ward perfecting the big-gun service
OF the British dreadnOughts.
"The introduction OF vessels that
swim under water has," says Sir
Percy, entirely done away with the
utility of the ships that swim on top
Of the water. Since warships would
not dare come within sight of coast
that was adequately protected by sub
marines. mo fleet can hide itself
from the aeroplane eye. and the sub
marine can deliver a deadly attack ev-
en- ip broad daylight"
"The navy will be entirely changed; /;
naval officers will no longer live on
the sea, but either above 1t or under
1t, and the strain on their systems and
nerves will be- 30 great that very
lengthy period Of service will not be
advisable; 1t VIII be navy of youth,
for we shall require nothing but bold
ness and daring,
"In war times the scouting aero
planes will always be high above on
the look out, and the submarines In
constant readiness, as are the engines
at fire station. II an enemy is
sighted the gong sounds and the leash
OF a flotilla of submarines will be
slipped. .t
whether it be night or day. fine or
rough. they must go out to search
for their quarry; II they find her she
is doomed. and they give no quarter,
they cannot board her and take her
as q prize, as In the olden days: they
only wait till she sinks then return
home without even knowing the num-
ber Of human beings that they have
sent to the bottom Of the ocean.
"Will any battleship expose herself
to such dead certainty OF destruc-
tlon? say no."
