Wells Fargo mining stock labeled worthless in Virginia Chronicle
The Virginia Chronicle reports Wells Fargo mining stock, now traded on the San Francisco Stock Board, is utterly worthless. The former Wells Fargo mine was sold by the Sheriff of Storey County a year ago, and since sale $85,000 in assessments have been levied by the Company. The paper also notes Nevada delegates to the Democratic National Convention will be chosen by the State Central Committee, opposing a State Convention to instruct delegates. The National Union Greenback Labor Convention met in St. Louis with 250 delegates from twenty states, voting thanks to Denis Kearney and others, and adjourned to meet in Chicago June 9. San Francisco election officials call for March 90 election to select fifteen freeholders to draft a new city and county charter.
