est silver producing camps in the world,
can justly boast of the proud distfnc-
tion it has so fully earned in this d.
rection; for, nowhere else in the west
is there q. peer to the great mines of
this camp. which includes the world
famous Ontario the wonderful DAILY,
the celebrated Silver King, the Cres-
e9ent, the Anchor tine Cumberland and.
q score of other noted producers; and
In no other section has the permanency
OF the ore bodies been proven to a
greater depth; and still although the
Park can point with pride TO its mag
innocent producers Of the precious met
al, it is believed that ait no distant day
another dividend payer wifi ask for
place on the splendid list of wealth
producers Of the camp. and that the
DAILY West will be the name of this
property.
The DAILY West ground, located as il
is between the Ontario and Daily. and
Anchor mines, has long been considered
as one Of the most valuable unpro-
cuctlNe properties in the Park and of
lafe years, as Developments have been
pushed under the personal supervision
Of John J. Daily, this impression has
contlnued to grow in tine minds Of
those who watched the progress made.
Until tuNAe1y III IS current rQ1llOT IN Park
CITY and on the streets of Salt Lake
that the Daily West is the making of
~ great mine as this inter-mountain
region can boast of
The workings of the Daily mine have
continued UP to the endline of the Daily
West, and to a depth of 1900 feet eX-
posing bodies of silicious silver ores
in the Daily West ground that are esti-
mated in value ait about SO, 900, 900. This
ore has been most successfully treated
at the NaI'sac mill by the DAILY Mining
company, but as the Daily West had
no mill, and the ore would not pay to
ship, Mr.. DAILY las been compelled to
let it stand where nature placed 1T. The
location of the Peck cOncenlrafOT. at
Park City, however, has given a new
lease on life for the DAILY West, and
soon after the plant is completed, which
will be about October /, it viii begin
grinding away ON and treating these
silic1ous ores, soon after which it may
be safely predicted that this property
viii find a place on the records as a
dividend paying proposition, for the ore
body already exposed on the east end of
the property is practically ineXhausti-
bic.
Still, this does not represent the full
extent Of the mineral deposits of this
promising property, as, in the west
drift from the DAILY West shaft an i'm

Aeen encountered and pTospected for a
distance of SEQ OF 600 feet. In fact,
the whole drift is in ore, and the mag
ndtude of this ore deposit, Which is in
dependent of the Ontario and DAILY ore
zones, can scarcely be computed or
even guessed at, and 1t is the prevail
ing opinion that it extends to the An
Choir end line, and than possibly 1T is
a continual ton of the Anchor ore body,
only that ut carries higher values than
the ore so far found in the Anchor
milne.
In view of these facts it is safe TO as.
sumo that the DAILY West will be the
next dividend payer in the Park, and
that tine anticipations and expectations
of MIR. Daily Will be more than realized;
and his many friends are delighted
ever the fact that his untiTing industry
and perseverance he's at last been re-
warded.
The Daily Vests new hoist is rapidly
nearing completion, and when it is
finished, il is claimed that ii will be
the finest plant in the west.
This hoist win be very largely a
Auplicata Of the Silver King works, only
that lit will embrace in its construction
a1q Of the latest Improvements and
appliances known in mechanics
With the completion Of this hoist, and
also Of the Peck concentration, the DAILY
West Will be IN q pOSatlOn 10 SNOW
what it can do as a producer, and as
me entire group is virgin ground, II is
believed that its output viii be some
thing enormous.
Another enterprise is said 60 be in
contemplation in connection with the
operation OF the Daily West that has not
as vet been made public, and this is the
construction Of Q. tranway from Park
CITY to the mime, by which means the
ore output can be transferred from the
mine TO the mill at a trifiing cost 1t
hos not been STATED, however, just when
the building of CHS little road will be-
gin. but when it is finished, il wifi be
= green convenience and possibly may
be utilized by other mines along lis
route.
There are other mines in Park City
that in ali probability will be benefited
by the building OF the Peck concan-
fregor. among them being the Anchor
and Creole, the latter of which has
alread,y taken steps looking towards the
tkeeAmenH of iEs ores by this custom
fasll.
Daily West stock has been remarkably
firm for the pase year, and since the
first Of January it has made decided
gains on the floor of the mining eX-
change. where it is considered as a
gilt-edged stock.
