Brown, a prominent citizen of Colo- rado and a wealthy mining man, has made a report to the Santa Fe Com- pany on the feasibility of building a branch road into the Goldfield district. An excellent authority has stated that there is every reason to believe the Santa Fe will construct a line from Ivanpah, San Bernardino County, Cal,, to Goldfield, Nev. The district has been carefully surveyed and a feasible route mapped ouy. Officials of the road now have the question under considera- tion, and it is generally believed in rail- road circles that the proposed line will be constructed. Colonel Brown has made a careful in- vestigation of a route between the points named, and has pald particular attention to the possibilities for busi- ness along the route examined. He re- turned frem the territory a few days ago and submitted a map and report to the officials of the Santa Fe. He has returned to California, presumably upon some business connected with the project. Colonel Brown has the reputation of being a careful, conservative man. His report is understood to set forth a per- fectly feasible route for the Santa Fe from Ivanpah to Goldfield, passing through Lida and Bullfrog and taking in all the mines of any consequence yet opened. “His map is said to be replete | with details, showing all the important | mines between the two points men- tioned, including borax deposits which are being exploited, as well as the big gold and silver properties which are in the puble eye. The great need of the Goldfield dis- trict at the present time is railroad communication with the outside world. Particularly is this the case with Lida and Bullfrog, newer mining camps than either Tonopah or Goldfield, but which are said to be no less important. —_——— OCOLONY OF NORWEGIANS TO SETTLE IN NEVADA Plan to Secure Several Thonsand Acres of Unclaimed Land in Central Part of the State. RENO, Nev., April 1.—Norwegians of Minnesota and the Dakotas plan to es- tablish an immense colony in Nevada. Their representative arrived here this week to make the necessary prelimin- ary arrangements. It is planned to secure a tract of several thousand acres of unclaimed land in the central rortion of the State, construct an irri- gation system and have the land ready for the plowman. When that is done arrangements are already made to have thousands of Norweglan families come to the State and place the land under cultivation, each family taking a small tract.
