TINTIC MINING DISTRICT,
UTAH.


The Tintic Mining District lies eighty
five miles south of Salt Lake City on the
Rio Grande Western Railway. and is, as
shown by the records of 1885 and so far
In the present year, the greatest mineral
producing district in Utah.
The names of the great bonanzas Of
Tintic. the Mammoth. Centennial
Eureka. Bullion Beck. Eureka Hill and
Gemini, are recognized everywhere that
the mining industry is known. The
four former have each record exceed
ing 81. .OOO 600 In dividends and the later
of over $500, 900.
Until within the last two or three
years no adequate means of reduction

erection of immense combination and

producing mines of the district. Four
Of these mills are in active operation,

The ores of Tintic are greatly diversi-
fed in character. The principal metals
produced are gold. silver, copper and
lead. In silver production Tintic leads
the state, while in the production Of
gold it stands second on the list. Be
sides the big bonanzas above mentioned
there are some twenty-five or more prop
critics that now and In the past have
been producing mines, and TO these may
be added score Of others which have
paid for their development by their pro-
ducts, and upon the recent revival Of
the mining industry has had the effect
of recOmmencement of operations.
Tintic has four thriving towns-Eu-
reka, the business center OF the district,
with a population Of $500; Mammoth.

We have received very interest
ing letter and a number Of papers
from Gen G. 5. Meem, Of Seattle,
Washington. The many friends Of
Gen Meem in thus county will be
clad TO learn that his location in
Seattle was a most fortunate one.
The recent gold discoveries in
Alaska has doomed Seattle more
than any city in the United States.
1t is the depot from which that
country must draw their supplies
and the immense immigration to
Alaska starts from Seattle. They
have the best meaDs OF transportation.
Other cities may attempt to COM
pete with it but Seattle has the
start and it has an enterprising
population that knows how to keep
in the lead.
When it is considered hat every
Iudicious miner will expend at least
$3.50 for supplies and Transports
ton and that nearly the entire
amount goes into the hands Of
Seattle people it will be readily
seen whats boom has struck thai
city. Nearly all the gold comes t.
Seattle. Eleven thousand four hun
bred ounces of gold dust was shipped
from Seattle to the assay office
in one day. Five bars OF 2OOC
ounces each were cast and placed
| in Ike bank windows to elicit thu
admiration of both gold and silyel
people. The country has become
wild with the gold fever and viii
continue for months to pour their
boarded means into the hands Of tn,
Seattle people. With the immense in
creaseof trade there will necessarily
be a large increase Of population
and a great boom in the value of al
kinds ofproperty. As Gen. Mcen
had no sympathy with the silver
movement, he can enjoy TO its ful
exteat the prosperity brought to hi
city by gold. AS the letter Of Gen
Meem will be of interest to manl
of his old friends, we take th'
liberty of publishing it, though j
evidently was not intended 70
publication.
