various mining companies and les
secs are guarantee for a plenteous

ton of the plants. In fact, it is al

The possibility of their caring for the

n the right direction and as each
liant is being so constructed that
surther stamps or H%untingtons, as
the case may be, can be Installed, It
appears probable that it will not be
long until the ore treatment require
ments of the district are fully met.
If the task prove too strenuous for

DEVELOPMENT INCENTIVE.
Now that a local market for their
ores Is in sight the arrangements of
Manhattan mining companies feel
encouraged to develop their holdings
on more extensive scale and are re-

on the east to Smoky Valley OF the
vest and from the Timber Hill sec
zion on the south to North Manhat-
tan vein exploration progresses with
daily |assiduity and under the most
encouraging mineral indications.
Signs of the workers are everywhere
in evidence, and every man on mine
dump or in workings below is an
optimist. He is as sure Of the wealth
producing possibilities OF his ground
