from an inspection visit 10 the uphir
possessions of that organization, where
he found everyChing progressing with

Friday that the company had succee ed
in getting the new tramway into con-
dition, and by means OF this improve
ment at least fifty tons of ore per Jay
are being sent TO the local sme'tvIs.
This ore runs very satisfactorily in lead
and silver. containing also good copper
and gold contents.
Little is known in local circles shout

officials have had nothing i'll view ex-

the owners, with no incentive for boost

that four years supply of ores are now
available, and this tonnage is being

GRAY WARRIOR READY
FOR PLACER WORK
Utah Company in Readiness to
Wash Yellow Metal Up
i'm Idaho.

stephen o. Snyder, president of the
Gray Warrior Mining company, is at
the Idaho possessions of this organiza'
tjon experimenting the beginning OF
activity upon the placer holdings there.
The Gray Warrior company was organ
lied in this city in December 1905, and
the general headquarters of the organ
izution is in Salt Lake. The company
is the owner OF the Gray Warrior placer
mines in the Bear Creek mining DIS
tricu, Gilmore county, Idaho, located
about 73 miles from Boise and on
the Middle Boise river. The manage
ment last year forwarded complete
line of placer equipment to the prop
erty. and everything now is practlcalIy
in readiness for active operations.
The Bear Creek district has been one
of the most prolific producers OF the
yellow metal in the Western country,
1t has to its credit something like
worth Of gold, and this production has
not exhausted the resources of that sec
tion, as one is willing to believe on see
ing the figures available to the Gray
Warrior company before tackllng the
proposition now in hand The company
owns 100 acres Of ground. carrying a
right to the waters of Swanholm creek,
with a capacity Of. 1900 miners inches
of water. The gravel has an average
depth of forty feet, all carrying values
| from the surface to bedrock,
A general average Of the entire mass
has been struck by sinking pits at
various places over the property; and
this average is % cents per yard. When
in complete readiness for operation the
management expects to handle one thon'
sand yards of gravel each twenty -four
hours, and at a cost not to exceed !
cents per yard. So any one handy with
| able resources and the earnings of this
company. Numerous Salt Lake invest
ors are interested in the Gray Warrior,
and considerable interest is attaching
to the starting up of gravel-washln
this spring. Everything points to the
company meeting with success.

MACHINERY FOR PIocHE.
Ohio kentucky and Phoenix Companies
Send Compressors to Mine.


The Salt Lake officials of both the
Ohio Kentucky and the Phoenix Mining
companies, operating in the Phoebe dis
trict of Nevada, are firm believers III
doing things IN the right way, and this
accounts for the fact that both organ
izations have equipped their PROPOSE
tions at Phoebe with all the leatest ma
chinery that is usabe. On Friday these
companies sent to the lower country
two compressors, one for the Susan
Duster mine of the Ohio Kentucky COM
pany the other for the Prince or Bul
1ionville property Of tho Phoenix com
pany.
In both organizations are interested
Jtahns who have held firmly to their
Phoebe rights when things III mining
way looked extremely doubtful for that
district, and, in fact, for all the State
of Nevada Among these investors
should be mentioned e. L.. and A. H.,
Godbe. Colonel James Hackett of
Louisville, Ky, and G.. NJ. Werk Of
Cincinnati deserve especially to be COM
mended upon their faith and patience in
their Pioche ventures. Of recent
months Samuel Newhouse has secured
a large interest in both the above or
CARNATIONS, and in the great era of
activity, results and confidence at
achieve the most gratifying character
of returns upon money invested.
1t should be mentioned that the
Godbes, Colonel Hackett and Mr.. Werk
represent that sort Of Eastern and West
ern investor who buys and operates
mines for what there is In them; in
other words, for their mineral wealth
and not for stock manipulation purposes
But Utah is made up Of such men.

Of Nevada from and after May the
first arc to have a great innovation in
passenger service, for their rights and
comforts are to be looked after as
thoroughly by the Las Vegas and Ton

This change has been made necessary
