NEARLY A MILLION AT $1.25 PER. An alleged evening newspaper in this city has announced that henceforth the price of suhacrlption will be but $1 per month. In accordance with thia announcement, the Tonopah Dally Ronanza, the paper that prints the news and as a consequence has F.eeured the InrgeKt circulation of any dally in southern Nevada, will continue to charge $1.2"j per month. We are giving our suh Hcribers their money's worth, otherwise the price might be re duced. Of course-, if we printed a local newH item only occasion ally, wo would be forced to make the cut. Hut he reader can al ways find several pages of local news in the Bonanza, that is when there Is news, and there hann't been a day during the past year that we have been forced to place scare heads over an item referring to an outside district where a great benefactor resides. Ronnmher, the San FranclHco Daily Bulletin is also delivered with the Bonanza with no extra charge, both papers for $1.25 per month. Subscribe at once, for if. is our aim to have a circulation of one. million by ChriHtmas, and when this mark is reached, no additional subscriptions ' will be received at this office. Better hur ry before It 'is too late. The Daily Bonanza is not falling down the line, but is continually climbing the circulation ladder. The great IfearHt is not in It, with "us" or "we'' when It comes to the larg est circulation. The Bonanza reaches the people and they read It. The advertisers know this.

From time to time for the past .two years there has been talk of building mills by the two companies having the strongest financial backing, the Nevada Wonder and the Jack Pot Consolidated, and it has seemed sev eral times that the actual work of building was about to commence. In the case of the Nevada Wonder, one cause of the delay has been the difficulty encountered in -procuring an adequate water supply on terms satisfactory to the management. This difficulty -has at last been over come. Economical power next en gaged the attention of the manage ment. Several plans were consid ered, among them that of generat ing electricity at a point on the big Irrigating canal near Fallon, and transmitting it by wire. In the meantime the Jack Pot people have not been Idle. The lo cal manager has been quietly mak ing plans. A rumor has gone out from Fak Ion that three proposals have been filed with the reclamation officials, one by a Boston syndicate, one by the Jack Pot and one by the Nevada Wonder. lt is easy enough to guess what the Jack Pot and Nevada Wonder want with the power, but the Boston outfit complicates the matter somewhat. In any event, the successful bidder will have, to begin in earnest, and keep on in earnest, or lose money on the prop osition, for, as will be noticed, the call for bids mentions a given time, and that pay- for the power must begin at a certain time.
