TTNTIc's REMARKABLE GROWTH
Towns of the District Receiving At
tention From Investors.

Inc great Tlnflc district, II is be-
lieved, is on the verge of a boom OF
gigantic proportions. and it is safe to
say that at the present tine no mining
camp in the west is receiving more at
teation at the hands of mining men,
capitalists and investors than this won-
derful cpmp.
Tintic is che of the most remarkal ie
districts of the west, and this is be-
cause of the fact that its resources are
SO varied. and also because its mines
are dry mines, the ores are generally
high in grade. and the poor man as
well as the capitalist has chance to
build up his fortunes there
In 1926 Tintic district produced more
silver than Park City; it produced NOR
| gol1 than MercuT, X produced almost
as much lead as Bingham. and it also
made a good showing in copper; and
as the various camps of the district
enjoy excellent railroad facilities and
other advantages, and people are flock
ing into the district by the hundreds
looking for opportunities for safe and
lucrative investments, it is no wonder
that the camp has enjoyed remark
able growth of late and is attracting at
tention from far and wide
OF course mining has been the chief
| inducement offered by the various
towns Of the district, but with their
continued growth fine openings for
other business pursuits have been Of
J fered, the result being that there has
been a noticeable increase in the de-
mand for town lots and good dwell
ings
It generally does not take long for the
keen business man to appreciate the
advantages proffered by such a condi-
! ton of affairs, and the result has been
! that w E. Hubbard. the well known
and successful real estate dealer and
mining promoter. has identified himself
with a number of prominent citizens of
Salt Lake and of Eureka, Robinson,
Silver City and Diamond, in Tlntic dis
trict, and together they have secured
control of a large number of available
5nd desirable business and residence
lots in the towns of Eureka and Rob
inson, and the townsiteS of Silver City
and Diamond. il being the intention 10
dispose of these at reasonable figures
and on easy terms to parties who de-
sire TO build, ard the OriglnatorS of the
enterprise viii also build number of
houses in the camps above mentioned,
which will be sold on terms to suit the
purchaser. or they will be offered for
rent. and at the rate with which the
different towns are growing and the
urgent demand for house room, this
should be a boon to these camps and
add materially in their growth and de-
velopment, as the great need at the
present time is more buildings; and it
is safe to say that more structures are
going up in Eureka. Robinson. Silver
City and Diamond today than has
been the case for many years. 1t is
pleasing TO be able to state that this
growth is substantial and permanent.
and it is believed that within a year
from now the population of these
towns will be more than doubled.
Tintic, in fact, is getting to be quite
metropolitan in its acquisitions.
Eureka, Robinson and Silver City can
boast Of their railroads. their water
systems, and their telephone and tele-
sites. and now that they are estab-
lished the advantages offered are being
eagerly seized upon by those who fol-
low in the wake of substantial i'm
provements, and VINO will begin TO
build and induce others to do likewise
The advent Of the real estate
agent, therefore, means much for
the district, as through his
efforts, and his associates, men
of means and good judgment will
be induced to invest in realty in the
cities above named. realizing, as they
will, that never again will they be able
to get in on the ground floor so cheaply
and advantageously as at the present
time. The different excursions that
have been given by the railroads TO
Tintic have been of benefit to the
camp, and as result many have be-
come acquainted with the resources
and advantages of the district, and
this will surely lead to investments in
realty rs we'll as in mines.
Mr. Hubbard has had this enterprise
under consideration for the past three
months, and ne has worked TO good
advantage. as he has secured control
of some of the most desirable business
and residence lots in the towns above
mentioned, besides which. with his as
sociates he IS interested in valuable
mining property.
ready made branch offices have been
established at Eureka Robinson and
Silver City. F. n. HolZheiner will 7
have charge Of the office al Eureka:
Postmaster Roberts viii attend to the I
office at Robinson, while S. Fechheimer, +
the well known mineral surveyor and /
assayer will lock after the affairs of
Silver City. and it viii not be long be- /
fore an office will be established at 1
Diamond, which is showing consider /
able life of late.
AS a mining camp Tintic long ago |
passed the experimental stage of its
existence, and now it is acknowledged /
that it is the making Of one of the I
greatest camps in the west. It can
count its big producers by the dozen,
and what IL more, il can boast of
three towns within its Environments:
and now that these are showing signs
Of activity. it is believed that they
offer splendid opportunities for invest
nent in the way Of real estate ventures.
and there is no denying the fact that
4 red-hct mining town is the best
place to make money that a man can
find
The growth and development made
by the mining camps of Tintic during
he past few years has been something
wonderful, but now that more work
and more money than ever before is
being expended in the opening and the
operation Of the wealth producers of
he camp. and his growth. in the I
future, viii be more marked than ever,
and investments in city property
here Will soon become as remunera-
i've as if the money had been invested
n mines or mining stocks.
