An interesting innovation in Utah
mining is the treatment of the copper
bearing porpnyries at Bingham by the
Utah Copper company. The process of
treatment IS that of concentration, and
the ground affected by il is a tract of
over 200 acres, which was purchased
by the company 81 the time of its or
ganization about a year and a half ago
from Colonel l.. A Wall Of Salt Lake
who retained 2 substantial interest in
the new concern.
The company is capitalized at four
and half million dollars and the cap
italization is divided into $50. 900 shares.
It's officers are: G. Nj. MacNeill, pres
ident; L. A. Wall. vice president; Spen-
Ger Penrose, eecre tary and treasurer;
and d. G. lacking. general manager.
These, with Charles Tut, r. McLaren
and j. D. Hawkins. complete the board
of directors. Frank J, Janney is mill
superintendent. Messrs. lacking and
Janney are acknowledged successful
mihmen and metallurgists, and they

sition was launched.
For reducing this ore mill was
planned and put into successful opera
ton considerably less than a year go.
The mill is located in Bingham canyon
about a mile below Bingham station:
the mine is located about the same
distance above the station. and the
transportation from mine 20 mill is by

railways The mill is a colossal affair
and is now treating daily about 700
tons of ore. 1t includes a boiler house
36X100 feet, with a complete equipment
of crushing. sizing and conveying de-
vices, and he work of concentration
is effected by forty Wiley tables and
fifty-two Nanner belts.
The mine resembles a quarry some
what. and the acreage mentioned is
underlaid With ore, in which to accom-
plish the development and to test the
extent of the deposit, work TO the ex-

The following is the bill:
1.-THE Board of Regents of the

Is hereby authorized and required
to establish on the Ft, Hays mil
itary reservation Il PW6tac Park
Of such 6imentions as said Board
deems necessary and advisable. the
same to be maintained perpetualIy
as a Public park, in conformity
with the act of Congress of March
%. 1900.
It has been a pleasure for the
hTee Press to bring out and ad-
vocate this matter, and urged sen
ator Buschow to push it thru as a
state and western Kansas measure.
The Topeka paper said:
Senator Buschow has introduc
ed bill to establish on the Fort
Hays reservation, gwen TO Kansss
conditionally, a Public park Of the
creek and timber, as required by
the act of Congress, which will
forever stop further litigation
over that beautiful piece of land.
It approp1iates $4,000 to fence
the whole timber and creek, lay
out drives and bridges and dams
on the creek and plant out trees,
and it provides that the 3 commits

mer Representatives Geo.. Griffith

Harry Freese, q. s. Land Office
attorney, the land being under the
control of the Government, should
serve the 4 years Free. /"
We only regret they struck out
the $4,000 appropriation to fence
and improve it, as now. without an
appropriation the Regents are apt
TO take the little 10 acres near the
bridge.
