Wadsworth Stoever, manager
of the Thunder Mountain Co.,
arrived in town from the mine on
Tuesday and reports that their
test cyanide plant is running
nicely and that when they have
fully tested their ore he will
have more to say. For some time
past that company has been sys-
tematically developing their prop
erty and have an exceptionally
fine showing, the only question
now is the most satisfactory way
Of treating their ore, and when
that is once determined we will
venture the assertion that anoth-

to the mining industry in the Elk
City district.
