The Clearing House association met
Saturday and admitted the Utah Say

although the last previous bank to he
admitted, the Utah National bank is
designated No. 12. This apparent nu-
mcrical error occurs through several of
the former banks having retired from
business, viz. Wells, Fargo & Co, tho
Bank of Salt Lake, and the Bank of
Commerce. Thus it happens that while
thero are now but ten members, tho now
member s numerical designation is thir-
teen.
The Utah Savings & Trust company s
business was formerly confined to strict
~ savings banking. but with Its re
moval to No. go Main street into It's
own building, the commercial banking
feature was added, and this department
has So increased in volume as TO make
necessary the facilities of the clearing
house.
There was no dissenting voice in tho
vote OF tho association TO admit tho
new member. rs its condition is cX-
ccp;ionally strong, aud the universally
recognized rule IL 80 admit as many

c. X. Jarvis, who is in from the

north of the city, states that two
leasers on the property are sacking
shipping ore and will soon have a

surface and a depth of 100 feet.
These samples can be seen in the
window of Harry Epstine's office.
Mr.. Jarvis yesterday received
returns from seven picked samples
he had assayed and they averaged
$114 to the ton. The lead values
ranged from 25 per cent to SO per
cent; the silver from ten ounces to
$40 and the gold from 81 to
$26 to the ton.
The camp has been named Desert
View and is situated where al

industrious population is beginning

A railroad from Bagdad is pushing

the line will be in full operation from
Scutari to the Persian gulf, a dis

JOHNNIE COMPANY MAKES
IMPROVEMENTS AT MINES

A crusher with a daily capacity Of
100 tons is being installed at the
mine of the Johnnie Mining and
Milling company.
Another improvement is the in
s~tallation of a storage battery system
for lighting all parts of the mine, as
well as the mine buildings.
The company has built a retort
room for clean-ups which are to be
made at intervals of two or three
weeks, a club house for the mill men
and residences for five families.
At the 700-foot level a shoot of
ore eighteen feet wide and with val
ues running $40 to SIS a ton. has
been uncovered.
The mine was operated only about
eighteen days last month because of
interruptions incident to the making
of improvements, but 1t is expected
the output for the month will be
$4,000 to $4,000, that Of the last
month having been $10,050.

The Fairview only resumed opera

STRIKE 1T RICH
AT GOLD CIRCLE

Ore that pans a string of colors as
thick as a lead pencil and as long as
ones finger has lately been encoun-
tered on the Fayant, Schloss and Lud-
wick lease on the Esmeralda property
at Gold Circle. The ore is fairly alive
with gold and seemingly there Is
plenty Of the rich stuff. Joe Fayant,
proprietor of the Banquet at Golcon-
da, and Joe Schloss, a San Fran
cisco travelling man, who are associ-
ated with f. A. Ludwick, were at
Gold Circle Sunday inspecting their
holdings and reports the disclosures
of ore as very gratifying. Not only
are they taking out and sacking phe-
nomenal ore, but a large vein of high
grade milling ore Is being uncovered
In conversation with Mr.. Schloss
here yesterday, he said: There is
enough ore in sight developed to war
rant the erection of a mill and this
we are going to do right away. Not
alone for the ores from our lease, but
we intend to erect a custom mill and
handle our share of the pres in the
camp"
Mr.. Schloss stated that another
rich strike had been made in the
camp on the Poorman claim. A ledge
of ore twenty-five inches wide will
run in the neighborhood Of $1,000 to
the ton.
The Esmeralda, on which property
the Fayant, Schloss and Ludwick
lease is situated, has recently been
sold to H. II. Muggley of New York,
but this will not affect the leasers
who have opened the ground. The
Boyle and Riley leases are also on
this ground.

No one whose range of vision ex-
tends beyond his own country can
have failed to observe that within
the past few decades the whole world
has reused itself to a degree of alert
ness and activity never before known
in history. Up to a period within
fifty years Africa as a whole was an
unknown continent, savage and i'm
p%enetrable; the principal countries of
Asia, their ancient civilization out
worn and ~decayed, had lapsed into
a condition of lethargy and decad-
ence. China and Japan had been for
centuries at a standstill, and India
under British rule was but beginning
to awake. Progress was confined to
Europe and North America.
In 1S4S came the gold discoveries
in California. followed in two or
three years by similar development
in Australia. At that time the accu-
mutation of gold in the entire world
since the beginning of the Christian
era was estimated at $500, 600, 900.
At the close of the present year ii
will amount to over $1,000, 900, 900,
and increase of $500, 900, 900, OF
three times the amount available in
1848. Such a stream of money pour
ed into the channels of trade has
given an immense impetus to the
growth of industry and commerce
everywhere, and is sufficient to &C
count for the awakening of the last
half century.
The discoveries in South Africa
Alaska, Mexico and elsewhere are
carrying the production to still high.
er figures, the gold production in
1908 having amounted to $409, 000,.
900. The total production of gold
for the first eight years of this cen.
fury will doubtless reach $1,000.
600, 600, an amount greater than the
worlds entire stock In 1S4S, and tht
rate is certain to increase. 1t is i'm
possible to estimate the economic
and industrial effect which sucl
amounts of new money will have, blu
its results are beginning to be see
in the worldwide awakening t
which reference had been made. TIL
economic changes certain to folio,
are almost beyond the realm of spec
