Some of the best mining pros
poets in all southwest Wisconsin are
being uncovered on lands adjacent to
Mineral Point. This confirms the
Tribuno's oft repeated opinion that
these hills were full of ore. A very
promising discovery has been made
within the past week by Mr.. Ike
Suthers and partners adjoining the
city on the east, and we know of an
other excellent mine being opened
on land joining the city on the north.
Either of these two are better mines
than some that have been capitalized
for big sunni.
