THANKS OF THE BONANZA
TO THE MINER PUBLISHERS

The Bonanza Is indebted to the
publishers of the Tonopah Miner for
assistance which enabled this paper
to appear today Owing to the in
disposition of the Bonanza linotype
operator and the fact that there was
no substitute available here or in
Goldfeld it was merely question of
whether the Bonanza would appear
in the shape of handbill or not at

equipment, the difficulty was over
come and the matter handled with
only tritling delay.
