failed to appear among the dividend
payers as it did during 1905 Through
out the year 1t has been going ahead
with development work, taking out
enough ore TO pay expenses The mill
has been going most of the time and the
low grade ore has been turned into con-
centrates that have made some money.
The principal feature in the develop
ment work of the year at this prop
erty has been the sinking of the shaft
to the 1.100-foot level At this point
drifting has been started toward body
of ore that Is believed to be but a short
distance away. The finding of this ore
body. which is believed certain from the
highly mineralized territory In which
the drift now is, will mean a new
mine for the May Day. One of the great
expectations of the coming year is the
finding OF this ore body.
The ore in the upper workings has
been pretty we'll exhausted for ship
ping although considerable concen-
trating ore still remains.
UNCLE SAM CON.
When the year 1909 opened the Uncle
Sam Consolidated Mining company had
a dreary outlook An excellent contract
which 1t held with the smelter had OK
pired and the mine had struck q lean
would be some time before this produc-
er would be back i'm the list of good
mines in Tlntic. The men who have
guided its future for some years were
not discouraged. With their customary
pluck they pushed the work ahead and
under the able direction OF Supt c. c.
'Griggs II was not long before the drift
was driven beyond Il fault and the rich
ore body picked up again

TO declare dividends. For several
months the company has been shipping

dividends during the year to it's stock
holders
CHIEF CONSOLIDATED.
Among the new companies to begin
operations in the Tintic district this
year was the Chief Consolidated which
within a few months after beginning
activities started shipping. Under the
management OF Walter Fitch this prop
erty has been developed into ono of the
most promising in the district Two
good bodies of high grade lead silver
ore have been opened up and the prop
erty will shortly be IN position to care
for itself The company Is backed by
a company of Michigan capitalists and
started ou. with $3.50. 600 in its treasury
for development purposes.
Shortly after the Chief was organ
lied the Eureka City Mining company
came INTO existence This company is
worked from the Chief shaft and the
property takes in the mineral rights to
the property In Eureka city. Each
property holder In the city WAS given
shares in the company according to his

THE TIMTIc STANDARD.

ONE of the largest holdings in the
~ East Tintic district is that OF tho
Tintic Standard. OF which Emil ].
Ra1datz OF Salt Lake City Is general
manager. Besides its large estate tho
property has been one of the most ac-
tive workers during the year. A force
OF mon under Supt. Oscar Raddatz has
been busy putting down the new shaft
at the property
Formerly an Incline shaft 400 feet
long was used to explore the property.
On account OF the expense of this, 1t
was abandoned and the company went
out after record in sinking a double
compartment shaft to the 6GO-foot level
to get below the leached zone. In 90
days. by sinking and raising, Mr.. Rad
datz put the shaft to the required level
The shaft IS now being made deeper
and 1t Is probable that by now another
mine has been made I'm East Tintic.
Considerable ore was found in the
old workings. but it was badly leached
1T is certain that with depth one OF the
pig mines of the district will be found

TN myriad ways the famous old dis
trict of Tintic has proved itself
wonder. The precious metals taken
from It's hills and valleys would
have made Croesus happy. and Solomon
I'm all his glory could not boast OF Il
land of treasure like this. In spite OF
market conditions for metals and
stocks which have Jagged and noun-
oered and gone down in a sickening
way, this district has continued to pour
out dividends from it's store house. The
year 1909 has been a banner year for
this marvellous district. In spite OF
difficulties 1t has continued ahead, ever
upward. until 1t now stands on a pin
acle on which is written this district
paid close to $3,oo0. 600 in dividends dur
ing 1909"
with this magnificent record, IL Is no
wonder that Tintic Is talked about
But Tintic, like many another camp.
IT is talked of ard boosted more away
from home than It is at home. From il
distance 1t is appreciated and the dis
trict Is still growing
During the year the dividend payers
nave not been the only workers In the
s"arm about the city OF Eureka, Low
er Mammoth has been steadily pushing
ahead with new shaft to the 2,o0O-foot
level. and this property promises to be
one OF the dividend payers in 1910 Tin
tic Central has plodded along as has
--SS King. The latter has in IL n world
OF promise. Grand Central has made
some rich discoveries and Victoria has
continued to hold up it's end in the
shipping line.
THOUSANDS FOR EQUIPMENT.
To speak OF all the accomplishments
OF the Tintic district during this event
ful year would be Impossible. Thou
sands OF dollars for equipment have
bSen been spent in the district during
the year and several miles OF develop
mcnt work has been performed. In
spite of this world of wealth has con-
tinued to pour out OF the district The
dally output of the district has been
equal TO bStter thai 20 carloads OF ore
day. In all close to 4C0. 900 tons of
ore have been mined In the district this
year and IL required over $500 cars to
carry the metal-bearing rock away.
Colorado has been the star dividend
performer OF the district and in fact the
entire state II has steadily continued
to pay an S-cents-a-month dividend
and at the end of the year IL stands
with a record OF s960.000 for 3s5 days
work. This is better than the produc-
ton OF the great Silver King. This
property paid s937,500 In dividends dur

According to the annual report Of
Supt. Kellogg, the property will be on

ing 1909 Iron Blossom is one of tho
new dividend payers of the district and
this year 1t produced for its stockhold-
ers SiOO 900. Sioux Consolidated, which
had Just entered the list of dividend
payers last year, produced velvet for Its
stockholders TO the extent of $5SS.oi2.
Uncle Sam, which at the end of last
year was in sad shape as 1t had struck
IL lean streak. again came back With
dividends this year and paid out $780,

MONEY IN LEASES
Besides the well known producers. the
district has had a number of leasers at
work and they have made money As
these were all private enterprises. no
record of their achievements has been
kept
The year of 1910 will open with great
er activity In Tintic than 1t has ever
known before. In the market its stocks
have suffered more than any other and
yet IL has been one Of the wonders of
Utah Next year Will see more produc-
ers i'm the district than ever before. Sew
eral of the old producers have settled
their troubles and early IN the year 1t
Is expected that their names will be
added to the list In the heart OF the
district are many anxious properties.
They are just on the turning point In
North Tintic are several that VIII
shortly begin an era of production and
in East Tintic 1t is certain that several
properties will become dividend payers
shortly
The most severe blow that the district
received during the year was the clos

and several hundred men were thrown

account of the grade of ore received at

such a time as ore for the proper mix

It is believed will be productive OF the
kind of ore most needed for his fur
naccs.
RIDGE AND VALLEY.
Early In 1910 the Ridge and Valley
mine will begin pushing it's shaft to
depth. AT present II Is down 800 feet
and Il is intended to send II 800 OF
1000 feet deeper. 1t has two compart-
ments and IS able to handle a good
tonnage But little shipping has been
done by the property during the past
year. as IL has been worked through the
GcminI shaft Some development has
been done. but plans for a greater cam
paign OF development are now being
made.

SUDDEN DEATH OF
WELL KNOWN NEWSPAPER MAN.
Joseph Swan, for Forty Years Asso-
eiated Press Marine Reporter.


New York. March ga long and
interesting newspaper career was clos
ed TO-DAY with the sudden death Of Jo-
seph Swan, for nearly forty years con-
nected with the Associated Press as
marine reporter. Mr. Swan, active to
the end. dropped dead in his chair in
the ship news office at the Battery. A
moment before he had been talking
with his fellow reporters. For the
past month he had not been a well
man. and had been warned not to over
exert himself, as his heart was show
ing signs of weakness.
Mr.. swan began his career as ship
news reporter Of the Associated Press
when there were two quarantine sta
tions down the bay. Swan was at
what was known as the lower quaran-
tine station, and braved all kinds Of
stormy weather alone In a rowboat day
after day. visiting incoming vessels to
get reports of their voyages. He was
brave to fault, and many times faced
death in the risky trips in the per-
Torrance of what was under the con-
ditions an arduous duty. In more re-
cent years Swan made his headquar-
tiers in the ship news Office at the Bat
terry, where death came to him today
Thousands of men along the water
front knew Joe Swan. He had led q
somewhat adventurous career before
entering the field Of newspaper work,
serving in the civil war and later GO
ing on mining expedition into the
wilds of Montana, In which he met
with many adventures. Swan was IS
years old and lived in Brooklyn. HIS
wife, three sons and daughter sur
vive him.

They All Want the Bridge.

The weight Of public opinion, as re-
Elected in the press all over the state,
is in favor of building the proposed
bridge across the Connecticut at Lyme
There may be differences as to detail
and as to the subsequent management
of the bridge. but the bridge itself is
wanted, and in the words Of the pop
ular phrase, has got to come" At
the recent hearing in Hartford the
unanimity on that main issue was re-
markable. and the differences in the
matter of detail did not affect It in
the least Speaking of this decidedly
unusual concurrence OF opinion, the
Ansonia Sentinel says:
In the recent hearing at Hartford
over the plan TO build state bridge
at Lyme there was no opposing voice.
Former Governor Woodruff was one
of those who spoke in favor of the
project, and he also advocated irnpos-
ing tax on foreign automobiles US
ing the bridge. This plan met with
prompt opposition from former Cow
ernor Waller, who said that as a usual
thing he opposed Mr.. Woodruff only at
elec ton time. Mr.. Waller IS quoted as
having said: I don't believe that my
friend, Governor Woodruff, wants to
urge a small. piaayuna measure to
soak IT. to the tourists, who leave
nothing but good money in their wake
whenever they blaze a trail across rhe
state. No, sir! Don't let US be mean.

without being mean, then Pm In IA
