NEWS FROM THE MINES and MILLS

In Summit county an extension Of the
Colorado & Southern rails is projected
from Keystone, west OF Breckenridge,
to the near vicinity of the Montezuma
mines. Kansas City capital has taken
hold Of number OF these old produc-
ers. They are listed In the true fssure
class and yield literally in silver, lead
and zinc. About eight miles of the
projected extension is already graded,
while the construction OF the other four.
will be comparatively easy. Electric
power will be easily available from the
rival plants at Breckenridge, or from
over the range into Clear Creek county,
where the manufacture Of power from
water is already well established.
The relation of all this progress to
Colorado silver-gold camps to the
years output OF the white
metal is easily seen. While
copper camps are comparatively
idle the number of miners EN-.
ployed In the camps where gold, silver
and lead carry the silver, will steadily
increase. The movement has already
set in, and when the figures for 1907
are finally rounded up and revised Col
orado will have regaincd her former
place in the white metal column, while
also increasing her output OF the met
ais that go with silver in the bulk OF
Colorado ores.
