Prosperity Ahead for Nina People

The effects of the present wave of
prosperity in the mining industry
are very noticeable in Mineral coun-
ty's railroad center, and for the
first time in the existence of Nina,
the mime payday" is of equal, if not
greater Importance than the "rail-
road payday"
At the Goldsmith mines +. J. Sic
bert is prepsring to operate OF an
extensive scale, and has now 25 men
at work. Development work being
done is proving the veins to be per
manent and the values constant. 1t
is reported that the company will
start a reduction works at the mine.
The Cinnabar mines are working a
number, of men. Pepper and Keough
recently made their first shipment
of quick, consisting of three TASKS.
A property near them made ship
ment of half that amount.
Many other properties of more or
less Importance are in the process of
development and some are making
regular shipments of ore, and all of
the business houses are prospering.

Silver Service Passes Through

The silver service which is to be
presented by the State of Nevada to
the battleship Nevada, and which is
now on a tour of the state that the
people may have chance to see it,
passed through Nina during the
first of the week. A whole railway
car is given over to the display of
the silver, which is said by those who
have seen 1t to be magnificent. The
car will return this way within the
next two weeks.

For the Commissioners.
EDITOR BULLETIN May | suggest
to our County Commissioners the
expedlency of opening up the old
route through Munds mining district
via Munds mine to connect the Raw
hide road at the Summit with
Thorne2 This would cut off the
Ryan Canyon which is frequently
impassable. The fact that only two
and half or three miles of hard
ground requires to be cleaned of
stones and one or two gulches filled
in from Will Hager's camp, at which
point the present auto road termin-
ates, makes one wonder why this
route has not been adopted. 1t
would shorten the present distance
to Rawhide, Rand, Lodi and other
camps considerably. The line being
through open country would OBJ
viously be available all the year.

JUDGE ROBINSON'S NOMINATION

There is nothing in the additional primary election returns this
morning 10 disturb the earlier indications of Judge Ira +. Robinson :
over General Lilly by a comfortable margin. While his
majority may be disappointing in size the extremely light vote polcd
Throughout. the state accounts for the absence of a larger total. Con-
sderng the desperate efforts of the supporters and hackers of his
opponent, the lavish use of money by the coal interests and their
allies. Judge Robinson is to be congratulated on the magnificent race
he has made against such influences
Happily for the Republican nominee for governor his conduct
throughout the campaign was of such a character that he has left no
wounds that need healing. 1t will be much easier, therefore. for
Judge Robinson to rally the entire strength of the party to the
party standard in the November election than il would have been
possible had General Lilly secured the nomination. The Inteligencer
looks forward under these circumstances to a united and harmonious
front being presented 10 the Democratic opposition and a decisive
victory for the entire Republican ticket.
