very little, if any, but farming and pros
pect work was done, the Indians having
completely cleared the camp about two
years prior to this time.
In 1883, Mr.. Jacob Hess, of Manti, with
party of prospectOrs, pushed up in the
BulliOnVille canyon, and among other
prospects located the Bully Boy, which
has produced ore in paying quantities
more or less ever since. The early set
tiers located in the canyon west of the
present site, thinking the protection of
the hills would afford relief from the In
dams. They soon after removed to the
more open and milder climate down
where they are now located and Bullion
vile was abandoned. The relics Of this
camp are plainly seen today. In the
early days. development, work was neces-
Sarily limited, on account of transporta-
ton facilities, which even today are so
very limited that were the Rio Grande
Western to push in, Marysvale would
come out as one of the richest camps in
the west. The mine owners are now only
waiting the advent of this much desired
facility to spend millions to develop the
latent properties.
Among the well-known mining men
and capitalists are R. G. Chambers, L.
u. Goliath, G. f. Dalton, l.. b. Hall, h.
j. Yard, w. c. Hall, r. Warnock,
George M. Scott, a. NJ. Musser, Elias
Morris, Henry w. Lawrence, Gilmore q
Salisbury, Marshal Parsons, ex-MarshaI
Dyer, Mrs. Senator Hearst, OF San
Francisco, besides great many local
capitalists, who are not SO well known as
those above mentioned.
That Marysvale Will yet come to the
front as a big gold producer, there can
not be the slightest doubt. Professor l..
II. Kimban, the 'swizard of the vein, -
who recently made extensive explorations
in that vicinity, says he believes that
Marysvale will yet bring Utah great fame
as gold producing country.
THE BULLY BOY AND WEBSTER
is the first location in the camp, and on it
has been done more development work
than any of the later discoveries. This
property is owned by the Webster Milling
and Mining company, Messrs. Il. G.
Chambers, I. u. Goliath, l.. Hale,
Thomas Furguson, all of Salt Lake,
except the last named gentleman,
who has full charge at the
vale. They are located about SIX
miles up the canyon, in the Ohio district.
The ore shows d regular milling assay OF
$50 in gold and silver, and there is consld-
cradle ore on the dump. Extensive de-
velopment has been done, and the coming
summer will see active work and big ship
ments beyond a doubt.
THE DALTON COMPANY
comes in next. They have just completed
and placed in operation a Huntington
centrifugal roller process milling plant at
an outlay of s., 000. They have employed
from twenty to thirty men. This mill is
located about three miles above the Web
ster and presents a very animated appear
ance when in full blast. The mines are
located three miles further up the canyon,
and consist of the Pearl and Hard Cash,
and a group OF prospects that are being
worked and developed. In some recent
finds, vein OF three and a hall feet
showed the enormous figures Of =, 5000
and q 800. 20 TO the ton, and a regular cal
lot samples from 800 to 500 to the ton,
mostly in gold, although there is a trace
of silver. The Dalton company has eX-
pended in machinery and development
work over $4,000, and while unforeseen
obstacles have retarded the progress OF
this great property, it viii soon be heard
OF again.
THE COPPER BELT.
is located on the north side of Bullion
canyon and is q patented claim owned by
Thomas Ferguson and some others. Mr..
Mount has it in charge and has spent con-
siderable money in development. He has
sunk a shaft 500 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 inaccessibihty to the
mine makes it verysexpensiVe transferring
the ore to the shipping point. The
leasers anticipate doing considerable
work in the spring and will erect a
concentration.
BRANCH LODE.
D. c. Tate, SUPERINTENDENT, has run in
a drift about fifty feet and one about
thirty-sIx feet, also drift that follows
the vein. They have taken out consider
81
dump and a number OF rich shipments
have been made. The present year has
seen great developments and several big
strikes. This is owned by the Deseret
Gold and Silver Mining company. Be-
sides the original vein there are three
others, ranging at an average of about
$40 TO the ton, and VIII be mined as de-
VelOpments are made. This is the prop
erty owned by Messrs. A. NJ. Musser,
Elias Morris, a Mr.. Thompson and other
prominent Salt Lakers.
UNCLE SAM.
This is a patented mine owned by Mr..
Bevans Of Salt Lake, with others. Ii
shows q large vein of high grade ore 1t
IS situated in the Mount Badly district,
about ten miles southeast of Marysvale
There are some valuable iron claims taken
and patented in this district; they were
originally located for fiuxing purposes
and viii eventually be valuable property.
THE PLUTO
islocated in the Mount Badly district and
shows very high grade ore, but it is OF
very difficult access. Thomas Ferguson
with some others are the owners. Some
work was done during the year.
THE MOUNTAIN CHIEF
is contact vein averaging about three
feet, running about 5000 to the ton. This
comes in the Mount Badly district, up
the Cottonwood canyon about ten miles
south of Ma-ysvale. 1t is owned bv King
& Son and Mr.. Ware-poor men awaiting
