The Carbonate Hill mine, the new
wealth producer of Morgan county, was
in the market yesterday with another
consignment of high-grade lead ore. This

With the Utah & Pacific within a few
miles of Stateline it is anticipated the
camp Will put on new life and that trans
portation facilities will give such an i'm
petus 10 that section that before the
close of the season several mines there
will find a place on the list as paying
propositions.
With the present active and persistent
demand for lead and copper properties of
merit, the wonder has been expressed that
the neglected camp IF La Plata, northeast
of Ogden, does not receive more attention
at the hands of mining men and investors.
There are several mines there which are
meritorious and full of promise.
Major Stanton expects to begin opera
tons during the month of June in the de-
velopment of the Lucky Lad group OF
ing district in Idaho. EX-Mayor James
Glendenning is interested with Mr.. Stan
ton and his associates in this promising
property, which is on an extension of
the noted Buffelo ledge.
Hon. C. V. Wheeler, who is in from
Silver City, states that the showing in
the Silver Park mine at that place is most
gratifying, and that the property is look
ing better and more encouraging as work
progresses in the cleaning out of it's old
workings. He also confirms all reports
relative to increased activity in the opera
ton of mines and prospects in that end
of Tintic district.

buque Gold Mining company is giving en-
ployment to a force of five men in the
development of its promising gold prop

the we'll known mining engineer. is MAX
ing an examination of the property at the
present time, and it is learned that he
will formulate his observations into re-
port for the benefit of Boston people who
are interested in this prospective bonanza.
The recent important strike in the Cen
tury mine in Park valley, Box Elder coun-
ty, has aroused considerable interest in
mining. circles in this city, regarding this
promising gold camp and this summer will
doubtless witness quite a boom there, and
especially as the Century company will
put in new reduction works at an early
day while other mines o. the district will
either put up mills or send in regular con-
signments of high-grade ore to the Salt
Lake market.
A. NJ Spooner, one of the leading mining
operators of Mercur, is in the city, having
moved his family to Zion from this great
producing camp. Mr. Spooner is en-
thusiastic over the showing in the Daisy
mine on the West Dip, and he is not sur
prised that there is n boom on regarding
the stock of the company, as he says that
the mine is in splendid physical condition
with immense bodies of good milling ore
in sight. while the reduction works of
the company will soon be treating 40 tons
of ore daily.
