SAM PLATT'S HAT IN
THE SENATORIAL RING

The announcement card Of Hon.
Sam Platt, who at the last election
gave Senator Newlands the closest
run for his seat in the United States
senate that he had ever had in his
long years in that Office, appears in
this issue of the Record.
Mr.. Platt is lawyer of the high
est standing, and besides serving the
people of his native state, Nevada, in
many official capacities, for number
of years was United States district at
torney. He is we'll known in every
village and hamlet in the state and
comes before the people in the same
straightforward manner that marked
his fight two years ago for seat in
the highest deliberative body in the
union. He needs no introduction,
nor any flattering remarks said about
him, to the people of Nevada.
Sam Platt made the race for U. S
senator two years ago against great
odds, and came within A. votes OF

lands, whose residence in Nevada has
been somewhat of minus quaint

Many Republicans look upon Plat
as being the logical candidate thi:
year; that the Straightforward fgh
waged two years ago entities him tt
another chance. He is opposed fol
the nomination by Judge Norcross
chief Justice of the supreme court o
Nevada, and A. II. Howe, the Gold
field mining man and banker.

Great REVIVAL N
NEVADA MINING CAMPS

Mine reports received by the U.
s. Geological survey from v.C.Heik-
es Of the Salt Lake field Office indi-
Gates that during the last six months
the mining industry OF Nevada has
experienced one of its greatest re-
vivals. Old mines closed down for
years have resumed or are being put
in shape for production, and the
regular producers have increased
their output to the fullest capacity.
At many points the use of tractor
engines, hauling on each trip as
much as 80 tons of ore between mine
and railroad have helped to improve
conditions, as formerly there were
not teams enough for all purposes.
The many milling plants of the state
are reported to be in full operation,
and number have adopted the fiota-
tion process for increased saving.
In the Yellow Pine district live dry
mills are operated on zinc ores. Only
one of the two copper slIelters in
Nevada was in operation. Gold will
likely show little increase. The de-
clining production at Goldfield may
be made up to some extent from the
general increase in the output of
ores. No new gold deposits of note
have been found. The placer-goll
production at Manhattan and Round
Mountain Is about the same; the
latter making up for any decrease in
the former. Silver may show gain
from increased operations made at
Rochester, but the increase will pro-
badly be offset by the idleness of the
mines in Churchill County little X
any of the silver output is held in
storage for higher prices compared
to the quantity held in 1915.
The production of ore containing
lead has been greater than in recent
years. principally from Phoebe and
Goodsprings. and Eureka. Ely pro-
duces most of the copper, and at
/, the rate of production for the last
6 months will yield $4,000 ,00C
pounds of the metal in 1915. Cop
