Now Utah comes forward with a gold
mining craze. The valley at Mercur,
sixty five miles south Of Salt Lake City,
has been staked out for space seven
miles long and three miles wide and
moro than thousand miners are at
work. One company has been operating
a mine for two years but only recently
has the idea been obtained that the
whole valley contained paying ore. Colo
RADIO and South Africa are not to have Il
monopoly of the gold excitement. The
Mercurs are destined to rival both the
Kaflirs and the Cripple Checkers.
