wealth-in fact, 1T is the basis of her

that very much larger sum than this
has been paid out in wages and for ma

Dug out of the ground, we can realize
what it has meant for Utah during the
years of depression from which the
whole country has suffered. It has
been her mineral wealth which has pre-
vented Ufah from feeling the deples-
sion so keenly as those states which
depended more upon agriculture and
manufacturing. Yet there are mineral
districts which have hardly been touch
ed. Take Mercur, for instance Prob
ably not more than a million dollars
has been taken out of this district.
The amount of mineral wealth still IN
touched can hardly be estimated. 1t
