Mining News of the Week Condens-
ed From the Patriot.

Mining News of the Week COndels-
ed From the Patriot.
The unsettled condition of the
weather during the past week has
been anything but conducive to spring
activity in pushing developments. On
Tuesday notice was served on all the
ore men of the Anchor that all work
in that department would be stopped
at once. The announcement fell Oh
the men like a thunder bolt in Janu-
airy out of cloudless sky. But it
came, and the men are bearing their
enforced idleness philosophically. The
Anchor concentration will be shut
down, too, as soon as all the ore in the
bins is used up. The defective and
unsatisfactory condition of the Anchor
concentrator is the principal reason
for shutting down. If the talked-of
new mill by T. r. Jones and others is
not built at Park City the Anchor peo-
pie will build a mill of their own. This
is a, matter however, that has not yet
been decided upon. Superintendent
Dave Keith paid at the Anchor Mon
day and left for Salt Lake Tuesday.
Senator Robert Craig Chambers be-
gan paying at the Ontario mill Tues
day and kept the good work going on
until all the boys at the mill and
mines of the Ontario Silver Mining
company had been paid.
Tom Kearns came UP from Salt
Lake yesterday and, armed with the
monthly pay-checks, proceeded to the
Silver King and fired one at every man
under and on top of the ground. 1t is
needless TO say that they all feel
better.
Superintendent Rhoden is pushing
things at the Creole He is working
only one shift, and not two, as it has
been eroneously reported.
Joseph Thomas Kescel and associ-
ates located two more promising
claims on the Provo last week. II Joe
is not a millionaire ii won't be for lack
of trying.
The officers of the Lucky Bill held a
conference at Park City Monday and
decided to call for another assessment.
1t was so ordered.
The work OF sinking the shaft in the
Began has been resumed by three
eight-hour shifts.
The breaking of a driving pulley al
the Ontario mill Wednesday morning
caused the shutting down of the mill
for several hours.
Although the boys at the Sill
yer King have no grievance, as
they are paid So a day for eight
hours work, they have contributed
as freely to the cause of labor as
those who have a grievance. That's
the kind Of stuff the boys at the Silver
King are made Of Well-paid them
selves, they want all other men we'll
paid also.
We are able to say to the people of
Park City that there is now, for the
first time, a reasonable certainty that
the new mill, or Peck concentrator,
will be built at Park City. Senator
Chambers, who is interested in the
welfare of this town, assured the
writer yesterday that obstacles which
had heretofore existed were over
come, and that he believed work on
the construction of the mill will be
begun soon. We shall not dwell on
the great advantages this new enter
prise will be to Park City. Among
other things it means the speedy re-
sumption of work at the Anchor mine
and the development of many proper
ties now idle.

MY home is at Batesville, Ark.
During the last spring and summer
my eldest daughter, then II years of
age, was in very poor health, suffering
from general debility, nervous prostra-
ton and frequent slight fevers. She
had the best medical attention, but
apparently with little benefit. In the
latter part of September last, while
still feeble, she began the use of
Paines' celery compound, and i'm
proved in health continuously. In
three months she had fully recovered,
and is still in perfect health. 1 am
bound to think the remedy is an ex-
cellent one, and do not hesitate to
recommend it to the suffering"
Lieutenant c. A. McAIlister, writing
from Hotel Oxford, March rs, said:

THE ELDoRADo GROUP.
Fine Showing Made BY This Promis-
ing Mercur Group.


About one mile west of the Mercur
mine there is a group of claims hereto
fore known to be favorably located. but
concerning which very little has at any
time been said or written. And yet,
several thousand dollars worth of WORK
has been done in the systematic devel-
opment of the property; quietly and
without attracting much attention, un-
der the supervision of James Kennedy,
one of the most experienced miners in
this state.
1t now leaks out, however, that the
property, which is owned by the Edo
RADIO Gold Mining company, has uncov-
cred an ore body assaying, in different
parts of the vein, s4 So and up to S21.20
in gold. These assays were made in
January last preliminary to negotia-
tons for the purchase of a fractional
interest which was then tied UP in pro-
bate court. This purchase was COM
pleted last week, and there is now no
reason to conceal the facts in regard to
the property. The Eldorado company
is controlled by a few Salt Lake and
Mercur parties, the directors being
Frank E. Wilkinson, Goodwin and Van
Pelt, E. L. Colborn, J. J. Rogers, f. B.
Shoebridge and John Scarborough. The
group has been surveyed and arrange
ments are being made for the future
working of the mines on a scale in
keeping with the assurances furnished
by present DEVELOPMENTS.

There is evidently a general agree
ment among republicans in this state
that the office holding contingent can
best serve the interests of the party
as we'll as the people whose servants
they are. by strict attention to the
duties of their several offices. In a
campaign year like the present year
the temptation to depart from this
unwritten rule is very strong and for
this reason ought not to receive the
slightest encouragement. No greater
misfortune can befall any party organ
ization than to find itself in the tolls
OF an Office holding ring If there ever
was time when such condition was
advantageous, except to the opposing
party, that time has passed. The re-
publican party needs no task masters.
Already there is talk that several
republican officials are ambitious to
represent the party in the st. Louis
convention. Ii is no reflection upon
their ability or loyalty to deny them
this honor. Their election carried
with it no pledge of continued prefer
ence over those who secured their
election. Common courtesy which
unfortunately is not identical with
political courtesy, should prompt
them to repay in some small degree
the debt of gratitude they owe to their
fellow workers. If this sense of
courtesy is lacking expression, the
convention should nevertheless en-
force the rule. All this work which
is preliminary to the campaign of a
few months hence should come from
the hands Of those who represent the
great reserve force of our party or
ganization. Prairie du Chen Union.
