1 Third: 1t il located within one halt
mile of the main line OF a railroad
which il connected by a branch line
from the smelter to the most import

It's ore supply, thus insuring the low
est transportation charges. Fourth:
iLis located upon an untalling stream
OF water sufficient to run a smelter Of
1000 tons capacity for eyery day in
