view
Who can tell what day may bring
forth in the canyons in the hills Of
the great mineralized, BELTS, stretch
ing from the eastern foothills Of the,
Rocky Mountain, range to the western
slope of the Sierra Nevavdas. and
from the land of the MontezumAs -
the regions of almost perpetual snow
in the frozen north? =, inn <fqr.i,'
Many instances can be cited when
it was claimed that wellknOwn pro-
ducers were the only mines that
would be found in certain camps. and
yet time has proven that this was a
mistaken idea as other :bOnozas have
since been found that we're not oni-
strong rivals of the early "bread-,
winners" but which have actually
eclipsed them in point of production
and actual worth; and these new prop
osition, in many instances, have been
found in localities that have been
gone over and visited many times
by the prospector and mining oper.
ator, who were 30 strongly impressed
with the prevailing opinion that rich
deposits of the presious metals where
a physical impossibility in the ground
that they thought they were SO fam
iliar with, and they never took the
pain or trouble to thoroughly investi-
gate into its true merit or possibility.
The same condition holds good in
regard to the unexplored territory
throughout the west and many neH-
districts of marked promise are neg
lected and ignored which. in time,
will give to the world another Park
City, another Butte, another Tonopah
and another Goldfield.
This being the case who can tell
where the next and important strike
will be made? Will it be, in some
distant portion of Utah and adjoining
States or in some of our older and
better known camps. Will q second
Silver King come into existence t.
vie with another Ontario. or, will a
great bonanza be found in & locality
