Last Wednesday. Superintendent S. S.

critics, brought large speciman of cop
per ore to the Times Office. 1t was
taken from the 6S0-foot level and runs
about IL per cent copper. They have
encountered large body of this ore and
are, of course, duly pleased, but they
have so much good stuff blocked out
that ii passes almost without comment.
In any other camp in the state, this
strike would be called wonderful, won
derful, but II is not much out of the or
dinary in this great mine.
The time that these things will count
heavily in our favor will be when a rail-
road makes it possible to begin taking
out this great body of ore and convert
ing it into something of value. And
that time is not far away.
