Why Not Emporium?
April 10, 1907.

The Phoenix Lead Company, while
digging tunnel in their mine located
on the Shawaugunk Mountain in New
Jersey, struck vein of paying gold
quartz. The tunnel revealed zinc,
with traces of copper, and iron. Ma
chinery has been purchased to develop
the gold, and many persons are carry
ing gold and lead quartz in their
pockets.
Near Monclora, Mexico, mining
operation was recently performed for
the purpose. .ofreaching the workings of
an old copper mine. But the contract
ors had hardly commenced digging be-
fore they discovered mass of gold
ore ranging from S15 to $40 per ton.
This discovery led the mine owners TO
remove the top of the mountain Their
labors were rewarded by the finding
of fabulous riches. A great gold ore
body was laid bare, which the experts
state runs deep into the body of the
mountain, and the value of this vein is
WOIIE Vi
Until quite recently Cameron county
has depended upon its forests of Uim-
Der for support, but an industrial
revolution in this hitherto undeveloped
part ofthe State has begun. Iron works,
powder plants, and other prosperous
industries point the trend of the times.
Why not have the mineral resources
Investigated? Who knows if in the
bosom Of these mountain chains a
| hidden wealth may not await the for
tunate finder?
And in this connection, why over
look the possibilities of the Sizerville
water? 1t is wasting its benefits in
that lone hamlet among the hills.
Why not pipei it down to Emporium,
| and have large summer resort here?
Left in the hands of a struggling popu-
lation the Sizerville water can never be
conducted to a large enterprise, be-
cause tourists avoid the byways of the
world. But if sufficient capital and
ambition is enlisted to pipe it to the
county town, in very few years it is
safe to predict that Emporium may be
no mean rival of the famous Carlsbad
Springs in Germany; for by actual
analysis the water has the same pro-
perties. With mineral waters at our
very doors, why do we overlook it's
advantages? Why are we indifferent
to the population that could make a
Saratoga if Sizerville and Emporium
would but combine?
Lend us your water, sister ham
let, and presently we shall extend
the boundaries of our little capi
tol, sweeping you into an en-
brace that will be far more profitable
than if you try to stand alone. In
union there is strength.
