This summer they have run in a tunnel at the
foot Of the hill about seven hundred feet on the
ledge, and at present it is showing perpen-
dicular depth of 500 feet, and when they reach
the full length of this tunnel they will show a
depth of over three thousand feet. They will
then reach the extension of the Dalton prop
erty.
THE DALTON COMPANY
comes in next, as their operations this season
have been on no small scale. They have just
completed and placed in operation a Hunting |
ton centrifugal roller process milling plant
at outlay of $4,000. They have en- I
ployed from twenty to thirty men since
the latter part of August. This mill is located
about three miles above the Webster and pre-
sents a very animated appearance when in full
blast. The mines are located three miles fur
Their up the canon, and consist of the Pearl and
and Hard Cash, and group of prospects that
are being worked and developed. From the
Pearl and Hard Cash mines they have been OBJ
tanning on an average about six tons per day. |
Mr.. Emanuel Poulson has had charge of this
department conveying the ore in sacks on a
pack of twenty-one mules. His bill amounts to
about 5000 per month. In some recent finds, a
vein of three and half feet shows the enor-
nous figures of s., 40 and 81 50070 to the ton,
and regular car lot samples from 500 to $40 to
the ton, mostly in gold, although there is a
trace of silver. The Dalton company has ex
pended this season in machinery and develop
ment work over 500, 600, and in the spring will
produce some of. the most valuable ores ever
mined in the territory

and Is patented claim owned by Thomas Fer
guson and some others, who have leased il to
Parsons Vandercook and S. F. Mount OF Salt
Lake. Mr.. Mount has it in charge and has spent
considerable money in development. He has
sunk shaft 325 feet, with good paying ore all
the way down. The ore as shipped in its crude
state is valued at from $500 to 5000 per ton. The
inaccessibility TO the mine makes it very eXpens-
i've transferring the ore TO the shipping point
These gentlemen anticipate doing considerable
work in the spring and will erect a concen-
traitor.
