WILL BE HANDLED
BY LOCAL CONCERN
ASSOCIATION OF LAS We
GAS MEN TAKES OVER
SALE OF LOTS IN NEW
TOWN-SITE AT CAMP

Supported by vote of the Wah-
monte Miners Association, lots in
the original townsite Of Wahmonie
viii be placed on sale at once by
the Wahmonie Townsite Associa-
ton, headed by DR.. r. w. Martin.
Interested with him are his aSso-
ciateS in the Boulder Realty Cor
poration.
j. F. Hesse and Dan Miller left
for the new camp yesterday and
Will start the survey at once, so
that the townsite plat may be filed
with the County Commissioners of
Nye County at their regular meet
ing next Monday.
There viii be approximately 750
lots which viii be placed on the
market at prices ranging from $50
to $500. For the present offices will
be located at the Boulder Realty
Company building in Las Vegas
and at Beatty and Tonopah.
It is planned to build an Office on
the tovnsite as soon as the initial
formalities have been complied
with, and e truck load Of material
for that purpose VIII leave Vegas
this morning
E A. Ferron. manager Of the
Boulder Realty Corporation and ex
tenSively interested in the new
sales company has just come from
the camp. and will leave here this
morning on the return trip 10
Wahmonie.
Il have visited practically every
western boom camp since 1906"
said Mr.. FerTon, and 1 can honest
" say that this is the first one
that I would take a chance on. 1t
looks better each day. There are
already eleven leasers working. and
forty blocks have been let for
leasing. There are $50 people in
the camp not counting many Wis
itors every day. There are a few
businesses starting up. such as a
couple of restaurants. etc, but
there is a big need of a lodging
house. 1t looks to me like a per-
manent camp"
The people of the camp feel
very friendly toward Las Vegas and
the completion of the road as out
lined in the Age last week would
bring in a good deal
of business.
The decision 10 take the lid off
Wahmonie, and throw the camp
open TO the leaSerS is very gratify-
inging TO many OF the boys who
failed to set in on the locations.
The McCrea and Lefler property,
including the big ledge along which
the lucky strike Of highgrade was
made some three weeks ago has
been turned over TO the leaserS To
select their own g'5und. The only
strict provision is that the leaserS
must hit the ball hard and coa-
tinually. The Gilbert Bros. and Al
Borcherding are also opening their
claims for leasing. The Gilbert
Bros. have uncovered four feet of
quartz on their holding and Bor-
cherding has already opened up
pay ore.
The lack of supplies has retard-
ed developments severely, so far,
as all supplies have to be hauled
from Beatty. With the opening Of
the townSite, however, it is be-
lieved that the merchants who
have been looking for locations will
now be able to arrange for sites.
Tim Harnedy, who operates the
Indian Inn at Indian Springs has
opened a service station at Wah-
monte where he retails gas for 80
cents.
