Shortly after the first OF the coming
month the Indian Creek gold mines. in
Beaver county. are TO be opened UP
again for development work. and it is
also anticipated that the Rob Roy mill
will be remodeled and put in such a
condition as to make possible the eco
nomical treatment of the ores taken
from the properties in the district. OF
course. the chief interest centers about
the Rob Roy group. the controlling in
terest in which is now owned by Cen
eral Manager Farnsworth. OF the Horn
Silver. and who is now about to re-
sumo the working of the mines. which
have always given such great promise.
but which were terribly mismanaged.
Mr.. FarnswOrth has announced that all
OF the necessary arrangements for the
opening UP of the properties are now
being made and by the first day of
May everything will be in readiness
for the inauguration of operations.
These mines have laid idle since some
time before the sale under foreclosure
and their title was extremely hazard
Gus. Mr. Farnsworth interested himself
IN them. and, as result secured the
control. with practically the entire
ownership vested in him. He is not
the man to allow good mines to lie idle
and operations would have been in full
ewing some time ago. but for the
storms which added more snow to the
already heavy accumulation. The Rob
Roy mill has been used in the treat
ment of the ores from the mines in the
group, and some gold bars were turned
out. but that was several years ago
when the machinery was supposed to
be new. Even then it did not save the
values contained in the ores. however,
and it is understood that a practical
rebuilding viii be necessary. Mr..
Farnsworth proposes to make a sys
tematic development of the properties.
and it is highly probable that returns
will be received within comparatively
short time

SEPARATE SUBMISSION.
How the Vote Resulted at Brigham
City-Many Fail to Respond.

C1ty-Many Fail to Respond.
Brigham City, April 9.-One hundred
and fifty for Woman's suffrage in the
constitution. Al for separate submission
was Brigham City's vote Monday night.
It was a glorious victory for the wo-
men; for the Democratic territorial
platform suffrage plank. and a hearty
endorsement of The Heralds manly
stand on the suffrage question.
There was one peculiar thing no.
ticeable in this mass meeting. Woman
suffrage and placing it direct in the
constitution were openly opposed by
only three perSonS-three young bach
elors. At least three-fourths of their
Il supporters were boys too young to
vote. or unmarried young men who had
Just reached their majorities. The
chairman counted II opposers. but in
this number were enumerated several
gentlemen who were standing UP for
the reason that they had no seats.
The meeting was called to order by
/ Chairman Jones. There were about SOC
people present.
a. II. Snow offered a resolution fav-
oring the suffrage plank being placed
IN the constitution. He spoke on the
resolution. bringing out many strong
arguments in support of his stand

got I'D to support his dark-age stand.
Although he is a youthful spud. scarce
~ out of his teens. he talked along like
an old man for over half an hour on
the bad effects of suffrage in the fam
lily. In his efforts to make the small
boys laugh he entirely forgot his
amendment. never once referring to it.
He is now called Young Man-Afraid-of

Decidedly interesting addresses were
made by Mrs. P. F. Madison. Mrs. Ray
Evans and Mrs. J. II. Forsgren. They
had all formerly voted. and voted as

When the vote was taken only about
200 out of the 500 took a stand either
way. But the showing was so over
wheimingfy in favor of suffrage in the
constitution that it can be safely said
now that Brigham. by a tremendous
majority. win stand firmly by the two
party planks for suffrage.

DIVIDEND COMING TODAY.
sercur Company Stockholders Will
Receive Their Earnings.

Eercur Company stockholders Will
Receive Their Earnings.
In accordance with the recent action
of the board of directors of the COM
pany. the executive officers of the AIer-
cur Gold Mining and Milling company
viii today distribute the sum of $4,000
among the stockholders, that being
the amount of the dividend declared.
This viii be the first distribution of
earnings since August last. and the re-
sumption of payments has greatly
stiffened the market price of the stock
of the company. The latest quotation is
S3621a, with dividend on. while the
open quotation without the dividend is
$3.50, the difference being the amount
Of the dividend which is to be paid to-
day.
The figures or the first real months
work Of the new mill have been roughly
east Up and make a splendid showing.
They show that the value Of the gold
extracted and sold was close up to the
S55 0eo mark while the percentage OF
value saving runs very high. The re
turns prove that the plant is the sue
cess that was predicted, and, in conse-
uuence, the officers of the company
feel highly gratified. The returns for
the shipment made at the end of the
month. representing the cleanup for the
weeks run. were received on Monday.
and the total credit TO the company
was S13.675. the highest single week 3
shipment vet made. Regular cleanupS
are now made each week. and the value
of the product moved each time ranges
from 1850 TO $4,000. This is all that
was promised for the mill. which is
now taking care of on an average of
$50 gross tons of ore every twenty
four hours.
Not only is the work being done by
the plant of an extremely encoura ging
nature, but the showing in the proper
les of the company continues to inn
prove until it is very evident that
there are ore bodies within their boun-
Diary lines whose gold values have
never been even guessed at. Recent
assays made from average samples
from several of the tunnels have shown
a constantly increasing value until $50
rock is now very common. Cross-cut-
ting in the great ore body exploited by
a Wine in the Ruby has commenced
and the developments are of most
encourag ing nature Taken all in all,
the Mercur group is now in magnificent
shape.
Another cleanup for the week has
just been made and a shipment of the
product Will be made within the next
day or two. George Dern will go out
to the mines and mill this morning.

ders For the Group.
Recent developments in the Utah
group Of silver-lead properties at Fish
Springs have given some exceedingly
handsome returns, one of the latest
strikes being the cutting of a five-foot
vein OF ore, which averaged 800 ounces
in silver and over so per cent lead
from samples taken generally across
the face of the drift. President and
General Manager Crismon, Of the
company, is back from the camp and
confirms the recent rumors of good
strikes made in not only the Utah. but
in the Galena and other claims of the
group as well.
All of the ore now being taken out Of
the Utah group is going to the Lean
ingIton smelter of the hex syndicate,
and the owners of the mines estimate
that they save S. more on every ton
sold there than would be the case was
the ore sent TO the valley smelters.

WANT ALL PAPERS.
Mammoth Directors Refuse TO Con-
slider McIntYre's Report.

The board of directors of the Nam
moth Mining company wants some
papers, now in the hands Of Samuel
Mcintyre, before it will consent to take
up the report made by the latter gen.
tleman. These papers are reports. or
copies of reports, Including tine annual
report of the company, to which refer
ence is made in the statement now
upon the table awaiting action, and
the directory seems to be very anxious
that they should be returned and made
part Of the Mcintyre report, as eX-
hibits. A meeting of the board was
held last night and a resolution adop-
ted calling on Mcintyre to present the
papers referred to in his statement for
consideration at another meeting to be
held on the 26th of this month.
1t is claimed by the members of the
board that AIr. Mcintyre has in his pos
session official reports of the officers
of the company. while that gentleman
contends that what he has are but cop
les and not the originals. Some inter.
esting developments may yet take
place,
