Pioneers Preparing for Great
Rush Certain This Coming
Summer Season.

- few years ago you could not pun
money into Nevada with sixteen
horse team, but today you can not keep
capital out with a gatling gun, is
the way that Joseph Kearns expressed
1T yesterday, and he added that the
same conditions ideuticalIy are now
existing in the Gold Springs and the
Stateline districts of western Utah.
Mr., Kearns has just returned from
Gold Springs. and he stated that this
section of Utah, long condemned BY
everyone more through ignorance of
real conditions than by reason of right,
is enjoying a splendid era of pros
perity. Money is rolling into the home
Of the Jennie mine literally, and the
pioneers are preparing for tre-
mendous season of activity this year.
MT, kearns is interested IN numerous
Gold Springs propositions, among them
being the Jennie property, mine
which has reached such magnificent
proportions that the world can no
longer ignore it nor the camp that has
given it birth Mr.. Kearns brought
with him a sample of the amalgam
that comes from the new Jennie mill,
and by 1t one can readily see the
plant is great success, and that
it will be productive Of much more
dividend material than the company
has planned. The mill is running
smoothly in every way SAID Mr..
Kearns, and 1t is being kept IN con-
stant motion, the management using
three shifts.
The Jennie is looked upon in local
circles as milling proposition cXclu..
sively, but the property is capable or
producing some mighty fine gold orc
that will surpass milling levels, Mr.;
Kearns brings with him a sample Of
the rock that is found upon the 15-
foot level Of the mine. 1t shows free
gold in liberal quantities, reminding
one of some of the excitement rock
that can be found throughout Ne
rock came has been drifted on both
sides Of the shaft for a total distance
of 800 feet, and the body shows
width for the entire distance of from
twelve to twenty feet
The main vertical shaft is being sent
from the ll5.foot level, the same be-
ing now down something like 10 feet
from the surface. 1t Is the intention
of the management to drive the shaft
vein at that depth as fast AS three
shifts and modern equipment can turn
the trick. Mr.. Kearns deems the Jen-
ME record breaker, and as for
the camp itself. he thinks no greater
gold camp will be in existence as soon
as things are in complete Order, The
entire section OF The State, including
the Gold Springs and the Statellne dis.
trIcts Is loaded with mineral. and
all that is needed is the same sincere
development work following discovery
that must precede the greatness Of any
mining camp
In Speaking about the new Jennie
mill, Mr. Kearns says that up TO the
present time no ore has been touched
that really represents what the jennie
property is capable of doing. So far
The management has been running ore
through that has lain round for three
wears or more. II has been the result
of cleaning up. and the resources on
the dumps and in the mine are still III
tact Among the other mines OF the
Gold Springs section that are showing
up splendIdIv, Mr.. Kearns mentions the
Snowflake Uvada. Jennie Extension,
Wild Irish Amethyst. Interstate and
others that are either down hard at
work or making extensive preparations
for so doing,
The town of Gold Springs is brush
ing up its clothes TO make n good APP
pearancc for the new corners this
spring Buildings are going up, the
town boasts of mauy mining camp
features, and upon returning to the
camp next week Mr.. Kearns Will take
sufficient lumber with him to build a
dozen dwellings and two business
to watch Gold Springs and Statehne,
but better still, everyone who can had
better hasten in before all the room is
