1 ten, w. L. Goodsall and others, they
will be enlightened and will go home
! and tell their friends and let capital
know that Utah is a great field for
investments; that right here in our
| mountains are millions of wealth yet
uncovered, which only needs the labor
| of the miner with his hammer and drill
to disclose their hidden treasures.
The exhibition of ores will open the
eyes Of many of our home people, too,
who have no idea of the vast mineral
resources we have right at our very
door.
! Nearly every camp in the state is
represented, and by the time the Wis
| itors arrive it is safe to say every dis
trict will have an exhibit of ores and
metals of some sort.
TINTIC DISTRICT.
I The great mines of the Tintic dis
| trict have the largest display of the
| earh's riches. All along the north side
of the building are Tintic's ores.
! The Bullion-Beck, which has given up
| it's treasures for many years in the
past, has displayed a very fine collec-
| ton of galena, lead, silver, gold and
! copper ores.
The Eureka Hill comes next in line
| as one of Utah's wealth producers with
| a collection of galena, gold and car
Donate ores.
The Centennial-Eur Gemini

BINGHAM ORES.

ores. The Anchor mine has a credit
able display.
WEST TINTIC.
The mines of West Tintic are well
represented with gold, lead and silver
ores from the War Eagle, Orient and
other properties.
CLIFTON DISTRICT.
Clifton district, in Tooele county,
which is yet in its infancy, so lar as
big mines are concerned, has reported
with a very creditable showing. This
district is rich in its deposits of gold,
silver and copper: mostly low grade
The district, like its neighbor, Deep
Creek, is kept in the background on ac-
ties.
Only few exhibits have been re-
ceived from Stateline, Gold Mountain
and some of the more remote districts
of the state, but space has been re-
for displays from these parts.
From the Beaver Lake district, in
Beaver county, only one exhibit has ar
rived, that of the Copper Mountain !
which has a fair sample of |
red oxide of copper, gold and silver ore,
OF which the property is said to have |
some immense bodies.
A pyramid of sulphur from the mines |
owned by the Utah Sulphur company, |
arrived yesterday and was put in place !
directly in front of the main entrance |
The mineral exhibit from the cham |
Der of commerce will occupy a place |
in the middle of the building. These |
specimens nave been rearranged, dust |
ed off and re-tagged and will form no |
small part of what is to be seen in the
hall of relics during the session of the |
congress.
The decorations in the Hall of Relics
have been all arranged.
The national colors are in evidence
These were arranged By
Mr.. G. d. Goodsell, who certainly de-
serves much credit for the artistic
manner in which he executed his work.
An attractive feature of the display
will be small cyanide plant in opera
ion, such as are used to extract the
values from the ores in Mercur.
This plant will occupy the southwest
,orner of the building and is being put
n by Mr.. Will Orr, of the Macarthur
Forrest Cyanide company, of Denver.
which was the first to introduce this
process OF ore reduction into the United
states.
Taken all in all, the display is
splendid one and will surely be one Of
he interesting features of the congress.
