pairing for campaign of increased

modifying features of the new mill
built recently at the banks OF the An

The value and tonnage of the ore
production of San Juan county con
tinues steadily to increase, both in the
old mines and the new producers
which are modestly bobbing up Il cir
heads. Many large development en-
terprises have been started up this
year which must in the near future
add to the ore output. The Silver
Lake. the Iowa. Gold King and Sunny
side and Hercules enterprises are
now the chief producers, but there is
score of other properties which are
nearing the conditions of regular pro
duction.
More mills and better milling will
Increase the number of producing
mines and discovery and development
will continue more actively, as there
appears to be all kinds of money for
such enterprises in San Juan county,
The local smelter is treating about
one hundred tons of ore daily, and it
is probable that another smelling plant
will be erected here within another
year, as there is a vast quantity OF
low grade ores which may be treat
ed successfully by the pyritic process.
Durango should not overlook the
fact that Silverton is building good
many houses. Some of the people
here would at least live in Durango

could find quarters there, but it is

that La Plata county would be war

Now, to shorten a discussion so as
to get the paper out on time. Durango
cannot engage in anyt,.ing more prof
liable than study of the benefits
which must be derived by her from
the necessary progress of the Silver

hesitate or falter. but must 90 on ut
