Will Receive Attention at the Hands
 of Mining Men.
 The gold camps of Utah will receive more than usual attention from min ing men this fall, and it is expected as a result of thorough examination and inspection that a number of producers of the yellow metal will eventually be added to Utah's list of bonanzas.
 Nercur, of course, on account of it's accessibility and proven value, has al ready established it's right to be class ed among the great gold sections of the west, and it's growth is steady, regular and of character to insure enduring permanency and to promise a steady output of millions annually for many years to come.
 There are other camps in the state, however, which, although practically undeveloped, give alluring promises for the future, and which, doubtless, will in time make enviable records as the possesSOrs of mines noted for their production of the yellow metal.
 Gold mountain district is one of these and the splendid naturalization of this camp and the opportunities of
  ments are already attracting the at tention of the alert prospector. the progressive operator and the shrewd capitalist.
 It is in Gold mountain, with it's str ng lodges and alluring veins of gold quartz. it's heavy forests of tim Der and innumerable streams and springs of spark1ing water and nearby railway facilities, that such mines as the Desert are found. and which abounds in such valuable properties as the Golden Star, the Annie Laurie, the Mammoth the Breckenridge. the Miller. Surprise Holland. Butler-Beck. the Advocate and numerous other prospective bonanzas are located: and still the district is not half prospected as vet. while the present season will doubtless witness the discovery of many other claims equally as promis- ing and fully as rich in their gold de- pcsits; the only thing needed to make them all producing and paying mines being the application of labor the as sistance of capital and the erection and operation of mills for the reduc- tion and treatment of the thousands of tons of ore already blocked out in the prosecution of the limited amount Of work that has so far been done in the development of the camp.
 Stateline in Iron county, is another gold camp of merit and promise, and it's parallel lodges in a great porphyry belt-fssures which certainly go to the deep. carrying millions in the prec- ious metal between their well defined walls, should certainly appeal most strongly to those who understand the value of such a formation and who appreciate a camp in which the mines are easily accessible. nearly every one of which can be reached by wagon with but little trouble and expense in the way Of road building.
 The experienced gold miner does not have to look twice in order to aDpre- ciate the conditions offered by State line, and the expert can see at a glance that Dame Nature has ben most pro- diga1 in placing her treasures in the hills of this district.
 It is in State1ine that such mines as the Creole and the Ophir exist, both of which have records as producers. the former sending in wealth in the form of gold bullion, while the latter has al ready sent in several consignments of high grade ore with silver in values prcdominating, but running well in gold: and as work has progressed in the development of these properties it has been demonstrated that the ore bodies go deep. gaining in size and velue as depth is attained
 There are also numerous other val uable and promising properties in camp. among which are the Burro, the Gold Haven. the Grand Central, the Geld Belt, the Sunfower. the Rice Bros. claims and many other prospects, too numerous to mention.
 The town of Stateline is pretti1y sit usted and is already a good sized and thrifty little city, and while there are no flowing streams in it's immediate vii cinity. wells of excellent water are ob- taiI ed by sinking shallow holes in the gu,ch on the banks of which the town site is laid out.
 Tn addition to the camps named, Marysvale can lay just claims for re- cognition, and in the near future pro- ducing mines will doubtless be opened there. while in Beaver county, most promising gold prospects have been To- ceted and worked to limited extent
