ANDRUS & FREY PROPRIETORS Goldfield Meat Market Choice cuts of meat always on hand Main Street, - Goldfield GOLDFIELD IS THE CAMP So a Denver Mining Man Tells the State Journal. Messrs. Wm. L. Wilson ami Elilin Palmer, of Denver, reached this city yes terday en route to Goldfield, and after looking over the sights here drove to Virginia City, desiring to view thnt coun try, which has liecnme exceedingly inter esting to them in view of the recent de velopments in the Goldfield section, says the Htnte Journal. Mr. Wilson is secretary and treasurer of the Rocky Mountain Securities com pany of Denver, which is operating in Goldfield and has been instrumental in developing mines in Cripple Creek, Cen tral City and Idaho Springs, Colo.. Thunder Mountain. Idaho and the oil fields of Kansas. His is the largest pro motion and development firm in Col orado. He said: ‘•Goldfield will be the greatest gold mining cnmp in the world. I have seen all the mining booms in the West and without exception Goldfield is starting more auspiciously than any in recent years. I shall not lie surprised if by January 1st the stampede of investors from New York, Philadelphia. Pittsburg and all other investment centers of the East, will be on vigorously because, prin ; cipally, there seems to be a greater run j promised for investors of money in Gold field than in any other place ever discov ered Practical results are destined to be accomplished with less expenditure for development than elsewhere, and in asmuch as the values are higher and the bodies of ore larger than preceding new camps have shown, this wonderful new Eldorado will command naturally nn ex trnordinnry amount of attention. I have the utmost confidence in its future.” RAILROAD DAY IN TONOPAH Three Days of Fun and Frolic Are Advertised. .Tilly 25th, ‘2(ith ami *27tli are the days on which Touopah will celebrate comple tion of the railroad to that place.

The Miner this week learned from an authoritative source that the Southern Pae fie company ha* definitely decided to construct a cut-off from the C k C.. | starting at a point 8 miles north of Wa- j buska and connecting with ttie main line at Hazen. a station 2~> miles east of! Wadsworth. The length of tie- proposed cut-off is 27 miles, and it will make a saving of 87 miles between Tonopah and Stilt Lake. The new line will enable the Southern Pacific to make a material re duction in the freight rates on ore ship ments to the Salt Lake smelters, as it will avoid the expensive transfer at Mound House nnd the somewhat ardu ous toll exacted by the V. & T. It is un derstood that as soon sis the cut-off is completed the Western Ore Purchasing company of Reno will erect a sampling works either at the point where the new road leaves the C. k 0.. or at Hazen. for the purpose of handling the ores from this district.—Tonopah Miner. Litigation at Columbia. John Chiatovich, of Silver Peak, has applied for an injunction against .1. L. Butler, Will Marsh and H. 0. Stimler to prevent them from diverting the water from Rabbit springs. These are the springs which supply the town of Colum bia with water. Mr. Chiatovich con tends that lie is the owner of the water. He also claims damages from defendants for loss of stock to the amount of §3,000, resulting from the death of horses on account of the scarcity of water. Plain tiff avers that he derived title from the government 18 years ago. — Tonopah Miner. Wantd.
