Mr.. Reber went out to his
mines Sunday afternoon, in com
pany with L. G. Trent, a noted
mining engineer of Salt Lake,
who is to make plans and speci
fications for putting in a 100
horse power electric plant at a
point on the South Boise river
five miles below the mine, which
is to operate the mill and hoist
ing works at the mine.
The cyanide process is to bt
added to the mill, which will en-
able the company to reduce q
vast lot of refractory ore at ;
handsome profit, which so fan
they have been unable to do by
common mill process.
This contemplated enterprise
| will require $50 tons of new
machinery, all of which in due
time will arrive at this place, tC
be forwarded to Dixie by teams
Excavating for the new work
is to commence on or before tn
18th instant, and the whole to b
} completed in 90 days-the est
mated cost of which is abou
. $4,000.
Wood and lumber can be float
ed down the river to the electri
D works and from thence taken VI
to the mines by electric power
and the other advantages fo
economy in conducting tn
. works, by this new enterprise
are innumerable.
Dan Reber is rustler, and b
; his bulldog tenacity has accom-
> plished much at Dixie in develoI
: ing those mines, and now that b

d tions, this community rejoicetl
