The Times-Review of Tuscarora i
iubilant over the prospect OF the i'm
mediate erection of Il forty stamp mil
by the Dexter Mining Co. The con
tracts for machinery have been let tt
the Colorado Iron Works, and l05, OO(
feet of lumber have been ordered from
Truckee, a part OF which is now in Elkt
and teams will be put on the road a
once. The mill is to be run by electric
power, the company having secured the
Chagnon ranch and water. The PLAN
will cost in the neighborhood of Sl0o,
900. Says the Times-Review: "Thert
is no reason why within one year this
camp should not have a happy and con

satisfied that as soon as the Dexter Co.
proves the feasibility of working it'
ores, other plants will be erected tt
work the ores OF other valuable prop
critics here" We hope that its ex'
~pectations will be realized and that the
prosperous days of Tuscarora may re-
turn again.
