thizing with the advanced ideas Of the
western Democrats.
Locally, we intend to do what we can
to give the people Of this district a
lively home paper
The motto is: Free coinage at 16
to l."
The Democrat gives the following
mining news of the district:
Johnny Davis and L. t. Jacobs have
quit work on the Greedy Spring for the
present, but will resume again this
winter
Johnny Davis brought in some nice
looking specimens of gold ore from the
Enterprise group, which lies near the
Utah tunnel in North Tintic, and own
ed by himself and Schmidt Brothers.
V. L. Thomas and Chief Hogan are
grading the road to the Almo, and are
preparing for the new 60-horse power
engine. An air compressor is to be a
part of the new plant. Sinking will be
commenced soon and prosecuted as
rapidly as money and well-directed la
Dor can do it.
Judge Lombard and C. P. Fields are
sinking on the Norway with most fiat
tering prospects Of striking ore soon.
They have gone through the syenite,
and the undertaking lime is well min
eralized.
The owners of the South Wales mine
at Bingham are rejoicing in the dis
covery of 5-foot vein of rich chloride
ore. Assays give returns of SAL in gold
and the ore yields readily to the cyan
ide treatment. The find was made at a
depth of eighty feet.
NJ. l.. Powers, an old-time successful
miner, has charge of and is now work
ing few men in John Beck's Caroline
mine. Mike is a thorough miner
prince of good fellows, and if he can
not run a mine at a profit there is lit
tie use for another to try it. He is the
pioneer water man, having laid the
first pipe line into Eureka, and is as
full of energy as ever. Powers is sure
ly a power in the mining world.
Notwithstanding the black eye silver
has received, through the party re-
Gently deserted by Nevada's great sill
yer champion, John P. Jones, Tintic is
forging ahead, for it is well known
fact that, owing to the great value of
our ore. our big mines can and do pay
when others. like the Park City and
Bingham mines, run at loss. With
the new Bullion-Beck mill in operation
we will soon lead the van of Utah's
producers.
It is rumored that the Sacramento is
soon to change ownership and Will be
worked for all there Is in It. This calm
is undoubtedly ON the great mineral
belt of Tintic and the first northerly
extension of the great Bullion-Beck
and Champion group. and the outlay of
few hundred dollars viii surely open
up mine equal to any of the big pro-
ducers.
Uncle Dick Reed, of the Spy country,
was in town today and reports every
thing fiourishing over there. He and
his partner, Captain Sowles, have one
of the most promising prospects in Tin
tic, and with silver restored. as it sure
ly will be by the next congress, they
will drive fancy span of bays over
the boulevards next year.
The Tetro Mining company are about
to make an assessment of a per cent.
on the capital stock of the company.
This valuable property has been laying
idle on account of the depression in
mining stocks and mining in general,
but N. w McChrystal assures us that
by October l next, everything will be
running again in full blast, with Gus
Tetro as superintendent. The main tun-
mel with the wines and crosscuts have
cost the company $4,000, which
they deem very light far the vast
amount of development already done.
