PUEBLO COLORADO, SATURDAY, DECEMRER II, 1904

ern slope furnishes a notable ex-
ample.
The surface mining on Sunrise
mountain is done by quarrying, the
ore being handled by steam shovels
which lift from 10 to 20 tons at a
time to the cars on the track. In this
way a train of 20 cars of so tons ca
pacity, or 1000 tons, is soon loaded
and is hauled out with giant engines
on the road to Pueblo.
For the underground mining the
Sunrise is equipped with triple com.
partment shaft surmounted by steel
tipple and the most powerful and COM
plete automatic appliance for handling
the ore. Huge boilers, air compress
sors and hoists of the most modern
aud powerful construction are brought
into requisition in this great industry.
The Chicago mine has lately come
into prominence as one of the great
sources of the ore to be supplied to
the Pueblo iron furnaces. This mine
although only a mile and a half from
the Sunrise, is on the other side of
the range and cannot be reached eI-
cept by circuitious route around
the hills The company is planning q
branch from the Colorado & Wyoming
road and has had several surveys
made, none of them being less than
seven or eight miles.
Two Roads will give the
District Shipping Facilities
The Burlington is also reaching out
for the ore shipments from the Chi
cago group, and now has surveying
parties running line up Whalen val
ley from point just below Guernsey.
Both of these roads undoubtedly will
be built, as they will give an outlet to
ore over two different systems, the
Colorado & Southern getting the haul
from the Wyoming & Colorado spur,
The Chicago has been under devel-
opment for the last years by running
in shafts and tunnels, and by diamond
drill explorations which have proved
the remarkable extent and value Of
its ore bodies The company is now
engaged in placing an equipment of
machinery on the mine, which makes
it certainlthat the railroads must be
built to carry away the product and
maintain the maximum rate of ship
ments demanded by the Minnequa
plant.
The Sunrise mine has peculiar
history. 1t was discovered and op-
ened as copper mine in 1881, and

STORY
OF INTEREST
Wonderful Iron Mines of the C
F. & |. Co. at Sunrise, Wyo.,
and the Great Activity Therein.

About ten days ago it was an
nounced that the output of the Hart
Vile iron region would be increased
from TOO to 1000 tons daily, but now
new rush orders have been given by
the Colorado Fuel and Iron company
to increase this output of the Sunrise
iron mines to 1000 tons per day,
which is nearly treble the average
amount of ore heretofore mined in
this section.
As result the great iron camp is
booming. Train crews, miners and
day laborers are being added to the
regular forces and every department
of the mining and shipping industries
of the camp is being pushed to the
limit to meet the sudden demands of
the company.
The reason assigned for the in
creased output is the placing of large
orders for steel rails with the COM
pany at its Pueblo works, their fur
naces relying chiefly upon this camp
for supply of iron ores.
AS these ores are high grade, av-
eraging about 60 per cent, the daily
supply of 1000 tons will produce =
200 tons of finished steel products at
the mill.
Outside of the Lake region the
Hartville iron deposits are the great
est in this country, not only in extent,
but in grade and purity. 1t is esti-
mated that the Sunrise and its asso-
ciated mines now being developed will
produce 1000 tons dali for the next
40 years, or in the aggregate, from
25,000,000 to 100000 tons.
Great Extent OF the Ore
Bodies Shown by Drills
From diamond drill explorations in
the vicinity of these mines it has been
found that huge zone of solid and
continuous iron ore extends through
the hills, in masses over 500 feet in
thickness. The ore bodies of the
Sunrise group seem to be practically
inexhaustable, while outside of this
group there are enormous deposits of
which the Chicago mine on the east

the next year was sold to the Wyo-
ming Copper company for $4,000.
The Wyoming Copper company was
organized by Col A. T. Babbitt, a
cattleman of Cheyenne, and its princI-
pal stockholders we're N. K. Fair
bank and E. W. King, Chicago mil
lionaires. They put up copper
smelter at Fairbank, point on the
Platte river Just above Guernsey, and
in short time produced over $780,
600 worth of copper bullion. The
ore which supplied this smelter came
principally from the surface of the
mine, in large open cut. When
this geve out the ore bodies ran into
pure iron ores running from so to 6S
per cent, and the copper industry was
closed out.
A few years after the smelling
works were destroyed by fire and the
company sold its mine, an iron mine,
for 100000. there being at that
time no railroad in the district. For
over 10 years the property lay dorm
ant, until the people who purchased
the claim got possession of a large
area in the vicinity showing iron in
abundance and leased the consolidated
claims to the Colorado Fuel & Iron
company, which began the operations
here described and last year compIet-
ed purchase of the mines, rs in

people who move slowly and cautiously
but surely and to good effect. A large
per cent of the citizenship are both farm
ing and merchandising, and the advanced
prices of cotton and peanuts have put them
OF, the high road to prosperity. Property
is being improved, real estate is increas-
ing in value, and never has the demand
for farming land been greater.
During the past year two Of our larger
mercantile firms-those of J. w. Wynn

tht capacity of their stores.

management OF w. B. Spencer, opened

ENFIELD

To the Editor: The town of Enfield
made substantial progress during 1903
Some fifteen or twenty new dwellings
were erected and yet there is not va
cant dwelling in town. and there is con-
slant demand for them. The graded
school under the management of Prof
Sheppe had a most successful session. and
has added great deal to the desirabl,.ty
of the town for residential purposes. The
Bank of Enfield. under its able manage
ment had a very successful year.
The Enfield Knitting mills produce a
very fine quality of goods, and their out
put is sold for many months ahead.
Enfield is located in the tobacco sec
ton and the low prices of the weed cuts
off the trade of the merchants. but still
the trade was as good as that OF other
towns in the same section. The tobacco
market held its own and got as good prices
as any market in the State.
The outlook FOR the coming year is en-
couraging Enfield has never been boom
town, but its progress Is steady
Every enterprise in the town is thought
TO be on a good footing and substantial
progress is expected.
The Enfield Ledger will be converted
into monthly in January to be known
as 1.-The Monthly Ledger to be devoted
to the up-building of the State at large,
and of the eastern section In particular.

which are being beautified with magnif-

During 1903 it maintained a steady
growth, building new residences and re-
pairing and painting old ones.
In the early fall a fine road machine
was added to our list of permanent i'm
provements. Just before the close of the
year the Burgaw Manufacturing Company
was organized. 1t has already begun
to put up a mammoth plant, which
will add several hundred people TO our
town Some of our enterprising citizens
have begun to realize the fact that it is
a paying investment to build houses to
rent and have begun to erect several nice
cottages for that purpose. We expect the
year 1904 to bring to us much greater
wave of prosperity than ever before. Bur-
gaw promises to be one of the. most de-
sirahle little towns in Eastern North Car
