Brilliant Prospects of the Thunder
Mountain Consolidated Gold
Mines
SCRAMBLlNG FOR THE STOCK
Weiser Capital Eager for Investment In a
Local Enterprise. Story of the
Great Property.

The Signal mentioned last week |
the organization, by local capitalists,
of the Thunder Mountain Consoli.
dated Gold Mines, Limited, with
capital stock of thirty million shares,
of which eighteen million were already
subscribed by the incorporators, and,
knowing the unusual interest this
would create, the Signal promised to
give some particulars in this issue
regarding the great and wonderful
mountain of'gold ore, the milling of
which is the prime cause for the or
ganization of the strong financial
concern spoken of. Weiser is rapid
ly assuming the same relation TO the
mineral belt of Central Idaho that
Spokane occupies to the northern
part of the state, SLOGAN, Trail Greek,
Republic and host Of other cele-
brated districts Local capital and
energy is realizing the Importance of
the golden fields tributary to Weiser
and is putting its shoulder TO the
wheel to bring out the wealth Of
mineral, to which we are the gate
way and to reap a portion OF the
treasure awaiting to be harvested by
intelligent mining operations. The
fact that this is practically the first in
stance where Weiser capital has taken
the burden of opening upa huge prop
erty caused great interest in the organ
ization of the new company when an
nounced in this paper, and the ex-
tent to which local money has plung-
ed into the project of working what
has heretofore been talked OF in a
casual way as vast hill Of gold ore
way out there in tue mountains, has
at once inspired confidence AT home
and abroad that the movers knew the
worth of their own field and their in
vestments proved the value of the
property beyond question.
The result is that the stock of the
company is being clamOred for on
all sides and more loudly by those
most familiar with Thunder Noun
tain, and last Saturday at the solIclta-
ton of some local people limited
amount of stock, $4,000 worth, was
put ON the market and sold inside Of
an hour and the cash in the bank,
and at least twenty disappointed
local people we're complaining be-
cause there was none for them to
buy, but more will be placed on sale
AS soon as tue stock certificates are
printed; that taken, and for which
cash was paid, last Saturday was by
persons who have visited Thunder
Mountain in person and Inspected its
promise, and most of whom already
have stock as incorpOrators, but evil
IDENTIFY an insufficient quantity. The
managers of the company have Sc
cured from Lewis A. Hall his out
fit of 80 pack animals, used last fall
IN the service of p. q l. N. survey
ors on Salmon river, and they will
use the same in transporting tools and
machinery to the scene of future OPP
erations, the intention being 10 COM
mence active preparations as soon
as the mountains will permit.
Machinery will be installed 10 handle
vast quantities of the ore each "a
hours, and Mr. Taylor of the COM
pany has already gone into the coun-
try to arrange preliminaries. A b.
Anderson, Ed. Barton and other of
the incorporators intend to visit the
mine as soon as the snow is out and
decide upon the best means of op-
Grating the same.
