properties. This has added its share
to liveliness of the movement, for it
transpires, not only that more as
sessment work was done during the
past year, but there is no doubt of
greater expenditure of money than in
any other county OF the Arkansas
field.
This report being in the nature OF
a capitalization of the subject in
hand, rather than details of the
country which to be appreciated
must be seen, it has been deemed
consideration due to outsiders to
give in table form, examples of large
investments in the county, examples
of approved mines and mineral To-
calities by section, town and range;
and lastly the names of authorities,
local and otherwise, who can be ex-
pected to facilitate an examination
OF the county.
In connection with the table of
mines and mineral localities, those
named have ores in sight to prove
their value; and the ore named in
each case refers only to the form of
mineral at present mined by their
owner which fact in the case of the
carbonate and oxide leaves room to
expect a sulphide ore when such
properties are worked as producers.
The greater number of the authori-
ties cited are of necessity residents of
this place. 1t is called for upon the
ground OF convenience to strangers
who, il they are to examine the
country intelligently, should make
Jasper their base of operations, DIS
tant 81 miles from Harrison.
