MARVELLOUS DEVELOPMENT OF COPPER MINING

First place. it is declared. is the goal
for which Utah has a right to strive
in the copper-producing regions of the
United States, ana, great as the dis
lance to be covered in order to at

conditions could hardly be better for
the struggle. Attention Is directed to
what is being accomplished at Bing-
ham and in Beaver county,
What the Mines Are Doing.
During the last year Bingham mines
produced more than 90 600. 900 of the
100000 pounds of copper representing
the states output. This year Samuel
Newhouse's Cactus will add enormously
TO the output of the state, and the
mines of the Majestic company and

self. viii increase its production prob
ably % per cent. but il win require an
other year or two for its production to
begin real ascent toward the summit.

IN 1896, eight short years ago, the
copper production in Utah, from all
sources. aggregated only about
coo. 600 pounds For the year just
brought to a close it reached practical
" $4,000. 600. Eight years ago so little
attention was paid 10 the metal that
aSSayers were seldom called upon 10
make determinations of the quantity OF
that metal contained in ores and var
fation of two or three per cent in the
results obtained by competitive tests
was considered close enough upon
which TO make settlement. Today a
difference of a small fraction of L per
cent results in d demand of the pro-
Queer for a reassay and in case Of
in OF an umpire. This illustrates to a
degree to what extent the copper min
ing industry has grown during the past
few years. and shows TO what a fine
point has been brought the demands Of
the producer to get all that is coming
to him.
Reaching For the Top.
Three years later. in 1899. copper be
gan to attract more than passing at
tCntiOn, and mining for it was well un-
der way. The production OF the state
that year exceeded 9. 800 900 pounds. It
was double that in 1900. The following
two years splendid gains were made
and the industry had come TO be recOg-
nized as one likely to Outstrip ali others
within few years. and preparations
we're begun to take care of it properly.
Capital began TO roll in. large sums
were spent for properties and the build
of big reduction works were gotten I'M
der way.
For four years Utah has held fifth
place as a producer of the red metal.
unless the returns for the year Just
ended show that California has been
Beaten This year, at any rate. Utah is
going to climb into fourth place. and
men who make a special study OF con-
ditiOns and are competent to judge
declare that next year Utah viii not

place.
