It was ascertained Saturday afternoon

ltalists an ideal group of Park City
properties, The Iowa company was or
ganized late last year, owning group
on the noted Scott Hill, and the two
claims just added give the company a
very satisfactory acreage of minerallzed
territory with which to work. The
group secured Saturday is known as
the Scott Hill Consolidated group, the
former owners being a corporation of
nearly twenty years standing, This
latter fact considering the disorganzed
nature OF the old company S affairs, was
responsible for the deal taking much
longer than is customary III such cases,
y. NJ. Spooner, the well-known min
ing man, is the manager and secretary
of the Iowa Copper Mining company,
and when asked by The Tribune yester-
day acknowledged that the deal had
been successfully carried through by his
company, and that the consideration for
the same was in the vicinity OF 100000.
During the past few weeks the Iowa
company has been doing a great deal
of telling work, and the present results
are such that Mr.. Spooner predicts a
shipment of ore to the local markets
next month. The company will place
every man possible upon the property
the first of June for an active cam
paign of development, and this work
will be under the constant charge of
George Hail. the well-known veteran
mining man of Park City.
The main development work of the
Iowa company In the past has been

states that his. tunnel paralleled the
vein all the way, and in going this
distance a great number of slringcrs
OF rich ore were encountered, some Civ
ing forth orc valued IN gold, copper and
silver to as high as $3.50 per ton. From
the face OF the tunnel the management
ran a crosscut to the vein, and with a
full face of ore and width of seven
feet so far gained, the management has
not yet reached the foot wall 1t can
be taken for granted, therefore, that
the company has ore all the way in, and
beyond the present point Of activity the
development work of the future months
will be directed

are extremely hatteripg, and the COM

GOLD AT YERINGTON.
sensation Sprung Upon Meeting in the
Great Copper Camp.

1erlngton s main claim to fame is on
account of its magnificent copper de-
posts, and few il any have ever given
the district credit for containing other
than red metal producers. Word has
reached The Tribune that at a recent
meeting OF the many prominent inter.
ests at Yerington for the purpose of
organizing commercial club or cham
ber of commerce, n. W. Willis sur
prised everyone present by stating in
an address that the district would be-
come prominent yellow metal pro.
ducer as we'll. Mr., Willis stated that
he had completed an inspection tour of
where he found the undeveloped sur
face showings Of gold in an extraor-
binary extent. In his opinion Yerinp.
ton would not only be known in the
future as the Great Copper Camp, but
that its .rcnown as gold camp would
be equally as great.
Owing to the excitement over the
copper belt, with its proven worth. and
its proximity TO the city, the other
regions of the district have been over
looked, and prospectors and investors
are Just commencing to awaken to the
possibilities, Why this is the case can
be seen when one stops to think that
there Is a mineralized district at least
fifty miles square that is tributary TO
the splendid agricultural possibilities of
the river district, and on the improve
ments that will be immediately made
to the city IN the way of public utili-
ties, and toward beautifying the city.
A permanent organization of the
chamber was effected by the election of
w. D, Davidson, president; J. G. Kauff-
man, vice president; e. n. Evans, sec
retary, and by the selection of the
proper committees to carry on vicor-
Gus campaign for Yerington, both ex-
ternally and internally. Inasmuch as
the population of the city has doubled
within the last four months, the citi-
zens are awakened TO the fact that
upon them has devolyed the duty forth
with of providing for large and en-
during city, anw now that the city is
incorporated. and the officials alive to
its needs. there is universal sentiment
that all pull together and do the work
well.
