 The Rico Times has this to say about the Mount Wilson mining district: The Silver Pick is producing ore far better than the average now shipped out of the San Juan. Manager Wanamaker, al- though going along quietly and saying little, yet is taking assays that run into thousands of dollars daily. The force is now 30 men, many of whom are employ ed building trails, clearing up and doing dead work in the mine, putting up build ings and getting everything in shape for Winter work. The mine has shipped six cars of ore running from S40OO upward and expects to ship 12 or 15 more cars. Ore has been taken out of the mine lately from the second and third levels that has assayed over $500 per ton, the test be- ing made by Superintendent Wanamak- CT, who is not only expert chemist and assayer, but first class miner as well.
