BIG SCHEMES
AHEAD FOR UTAH
Mining Camps Still Being Ex-
ported by Representatives
of Heavy Operators.
ROOM FOR MORE TALENT
SEVERAL CAMPS WILL BE IN
VApED SOON.

Utah is to be congratulated upon
the entry Of F. A. Heinzc into the
local mining field" said q prominent
local operator yesterday. We need
just about three more such men as
Heinze and Newhouse, and then you
will see such boom in mining here
as no western mining state ever saw.
We have reached that stage in the de-
velopment of our camps where it is
going to require the invasion of big
money and the conduct of operations
on a scale such as only men OF the
makeup of the opera tors mentioned are
able TO give it, to get the best results.
We have hundreds of properties In
the surrounding camps that have prov
en- up we'll in the sense that small ana
individual methods could make them
do, but the time is now at hand when
we have got to- look to great combi-
nations mammoth modern equipment
and expert talent to make the differ
ent districts give up the best that is
in them. Such men as Messrs. Heinze.
Newhouse, the Guggenheims, Cole and
Schwab are of the class that will have
TO turn the trick.
bingham is just beginning to show
what can be accomplished along the
lines suggested. Park City, Little Cot
tonwood Tintic and Stockton each
need only the magic touch that such
men and combinations of men are able
10 give them to make of Utah the big
gest and richest mining and smelling
center on earth. Investigations that
have been quietly going on for the past
year or more, and which have been
conducted with greater interest and
more earnestness than the most OF US
imagine, are. in my humble judgment.
going TO bear fruit in the near future,
and the industry will be given an i'm
petus such as no mining region ever
experienced before.
Experts Still in the Field.
DO | believe that Thomas F. Cole
interests have decided TO leave this
field alone? Not by any means l
see evidences every day that lead 10
the conclusion that his representatives
are still hard at work in the camps
of this state. They understand condl-
tons at Park City pretty well now
and within the past few weeks l have
heard of doings at Alta which proves
sconclusively that the measure OF that
district is being quietly taken. Not
breath of what has been doing has
been allowed 10 crop to the surface,
~
fore it does; but il will come, have
no fear for that is one of the dis
tricts the possibilities of which will
not be fully understood until the men
now digging into ii begin TO plan for
its future
Immense Undertakings to Come.
There is much yet TO learn about
Bingham, Tintic and Stockton. Mr..
Heinze. Mr.. Newhouse and the Gug-
genheims are deeply interested in Bling
ham already None of them have yet
got all they want there and. while
we are prone to believe that the best
mineral ground in the district has been
gathered in, we are likely TO awaken
TO the fact one Of these days that
wiser heads than ours have proven diff
ferent
I'VE are getting a good start on the
road that is to lead TO new methods
and immense undertakings in Park CITY
and other camps, and l believe IL is
safe TO predict that within the next
two years we shall be able TO chron-
ice the advent of other interests just
as powerful as those which we are
now encouraging TO take hold OF the
good things our camps have to offer.
We are showing what our mines can
do In the matter of earnings worked
as they are. 1t will not take long for
the engineers Of the big operators TO
see what can be done when methods
are employed that will reduce the ope-
rating costs per tor of ore and the
tonnage produced is built up to sew
eral times what 1t is today
