FUTURE OF MINING rs BRIGHT

There are many indications Of increased activity
in mining in Nevada in the near future condition
that is forecast by the smelling companies who
are looking to this state for ore The United
States and the International OF Utah have been par
ticulary active and both companies have had field
men investigating conditions iii every part Of the
state Biologists in the employ OF these companies
are ready at any time to examine prospects and
brvonc mines and to assist owners and operators
with advice where it is solicited Material reduc-
tons have been made in smelling rates and the
smelling companies evidently are actuated by SIN
ccre desire to foster the development OF prospects
that they may have their chance to develop into
mines Reduced freight rates, which went into
effect July lst expected to start the movement
Of low grade ore. The Kennctt California,
slnetcr Of the United States Company Will be
operated as soon the copper market assures a
continued fair price for that metal, creating de
Inand for highly silicous for fluxing which
here tofore has been supplied by Nevada. There
also is good chance that the Mason Valley
Mines Company may carry out its plan Of install
ing revcrbcratory furnaces at Thompson and pur
chase custom ores. The reported sale OF the Eu-
rcka Nevada railroad to interests closely connected
with one Of the biggest mines OF that camp also is
news. If the deal is contaminated the road, no
doubt will be improved and freight rates reduced.
Eureka is one OF the greatest mining districts i'll
the west. From the time the first was found
i'll the early COS. it has been handicapped by
ccssive transportation costs Until 1879, when
the railroad was built wagon haul OF s. miles to
the Central Pacific alisade prohibited the ship
nent of crude. except OF the highest grade
Conditions were not greatly improved by the rail
road which always has exacted high rates OF late
years the railroad has been operated according to
the whn,s OF man, who failed to recognize the
duties OF a public utility toward the communities
1t serves Eureka a great smelling cen
ter and ii is certain that reduction works of some
kind will be built to treat the large tonnage OF
'ow-grade ore in the old mines. The future holds
forth much promise i'll every section of this state

DESERT RAILROADING

An early day description OF the Carson Colorado

The Carson and Colorado is in one respect unique
and in several respects remarkable 1t does not

Colorado or at the Colorado river. Its initial

yet thte locomotive burns wood. Among the
natural features of this road is Walker lake The
lake is very interesting to the tourist II he is
lucky he will pass this lake when sudden storm
