that each has his function in the
mining economy, but the apprais-
al of mine is not the particular
one for which they have been
trained. Yet any one of them
may by experience, sometimes at
the expense of clients, become
particularly well qualified for the
work. A few prospectors possess
an instinct tempered by judg-
ment, so that their opinion is
worth money; few biologists
learn enough about mine sampl-
ing to check their constructive
imagination; a few metallurgists
have added thorough knowledge
of mining to their own special
training; and of the promoters
we find two classes, those who
have graduated from mining into
finance, and those who-to aid
their fnance-have taken pains
to learn something about mining.
From each of these classes of
men there is recruited a number
of energetic nomads who write
reports, and it is but fair to say
that the average of them comes
nearer to the essential facts than
did the clumsy document pre-
pared by the mining engineer of
an earlier day. Therefore we
take cheerful view; we believe
that the frst-fate mining engi-
neer of today, by reason of the
improvement Of method due to
worldwide industry and intense
competition, does incomparably
better work than those of afore-
time, and that after him the If
regulars; the volunteers; and
even the camp followers do as
well as the academic regulars of
a day when the mining horizon
was narrow and the industry
provincial.

TRACTION ENGINE
HAS MADE GOOD

The large traction engine which is to
haul ore from the Nevada Douglas to the
railroad and freight to the mine, made
its first trip last week Friday, and the
run was entirely satisfactory. The only
trouble will be the supply of water, and
that will be obviated by the sinking of
two wells on the line of road, from which
the machine will be supplied. One of
these wells will be about two miles from
the switch on the Nevada and California
road, where the traction engine takes
freight, and the other we'll will be at the
foot of Mason Pass. The engine is man
ufactured by the Best Traction Engine
Co., of California, and is lis horse pow
er, the fuel used being crude oil. The
machine is calculated to haul so tons to
the trip on level roads and will haul
about 80 tons on the road it is to travel
The distance from the railroad to the
mine is about 16 miles, and the machine
will make the trip up one day and back
the next. The success of this machine
will partly solve the transportation prop
osition for the Nevada Douglas people.

Yerngon Copper Company Has Tunnel Face in Twenty Per

given the company about 800 feet of
backs, and the tunnel is only started
upon its journey.
Specimens of the sulphide ores being
found in the tunnel were taken to Salt
Lake BY Mr.. Rooklidge and they are ex-
trernely beautiful, comparing favorably
with the richest that the district has ever
brought to light In the shaft, however,
there is even better showing in red
metal as far as values are concerned.
This shaft is being down upon the inter-
section of the two large veins crossing
the ground of the Yerington Copper
Company. There are at least three feet
of ore now being exposed in this work
that is very rich in copper glance, run

This system will serve to open the ore

While Charles D. Rooklidge refused to
state for publication in the Salt Lake
Tribune last week that the possessions
of the Yerington Copper Company at
Yerington were the most promising in
the camp, giving results that few if any
in all the district can equal it was very
evident from his demeanor that he was
doing some tall thinking along such
lines. Mr.. Rooklidge had just returned
from a visit to this property at Yer
ington, and the reports that have reached
this city regarding the developments
upon this red metal property have great
Nv underestimate the real situation.
Mr.. Rooklidge was unwilling to state
his exact impressions, but the disclos-
ures of the past week or two are decid-
edly satisfactory.
1t has been stated in local circles that
the whole face of the main tunnel is in
ore of better average than IL per cent.

truth that could be told, for Mr.. Rock
lidge acknowledged that the average
value of this ore body is 20 per cent. red

the management, and the tunnel now is
