The lands in the DIXON dis,rie. embraced the above
Proclamation OF the President of the United States, were
explored by Mr. Owen the geolosist Of the State of ndiann
under instructions from the Treasury Department, and
compliance with resolution of the House Of Representa-
ves passed 9Th February 1889 The able report of this
gentleman published document No. 239 House of Rep
esenatves first session OF 18th Congress- shows that these
lands include all the productive mines, and the entire
gion in which, from observations during his survey there
is believe that valuable veins may readily
be found. Further that in 1899, the lead mines OF Illinois,
Iowa, and Wisconsin, though only partially worked pro-
dnced upwards of thirty million pounds OF leadthoso of
Illinois yielding their full proporion--and that the whole
district, if properly mined, would yield hundred and
fifty million pounds per annunl.
These lands being situated and the Mississippi
aud Fever rivers the of transporting the products OF
them TO St. Louis is only about fifteen per hundred
pounds. The soil is of excellent quality, and yields abund
antly all the products OF that latitude
The lands in the SHAWNEETOWN district have not
been explored fully those in Dixon Recent dscov
have been made however Of rich veins OF the sulp-
of lead and zinc contiguous and both sides of
these lands, indicating the existence Of similar deposes
