THE KEYSTONE
REDUCTION WORKS.
A SLIGHT CORRECTION NECESSARY,

In an article In the issue OF the NEWS
OF March Goth on the subject OF the re-
ported removal OF the Keystone Re.
duction Works to Georgetown, we find
that we we're entirely In error In statius <
that some OF the interested parties had
refused to lend the financial assistance
necessary for the completion OF the
works, unless the removal OF the same
was assured. However, from private
and authentic sources, we now learn
that perfect harmony exists amongst
the present management and Its fnan.
cial hackers, and while there is sema
discussion as to the adyisability OF
changing the location OF the plant, 1t
is done solely in the interest OF increas-
ing It's capacity greatly, to take care
of the immense tonnage OF concentrating
and smelling ore now developed in the
Copper Flat mine.
IL Is well known fact here that there
Is sufficient ore in sight at the mines OF
the New York & Nevada Copper Co.
to keep plant of 1000 tons daily ca
pacity busy for many years to come,
aud as II is also a we'll known fact that
1t costs less relatively 10 concentrate
and smelt Loo tons OF ore per day
than five or six hundred tons per day.
With this IN view there Is some dis.
cussIon among the officers OF the com
pany as to the advisabIlity OF moving
the plant now 10 It's ultimate and per-
manent location AT Georgetown, instead
fdoing so year or two hence, and iu-
creasing development of ore.
Pending "a settlement Of this impor-
tant question and for local reasons OF
bad weather, non-receipt OF certain
supplies, etc, 1t was deemed best to
hold further work in allegiance for
short time.
AS all must realize, there are many
very serious things to consider in equip

that of the New York & Nevada Cop

feeling their way by "nakeing haste

Ders of twenty-one unions, represent
