TAYLOR BILL TO
ESTABLISH ORE
PLANTS ON SLOPE
Sentinel Special Service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Denver, Aug. S.-There is very
little prospect that this congress will
reach vote on the bill offered by
Congressman Edward Taylor which
calls for an appropriation of $35, 900
TO be used by the government for the
erection of a refractory ore-testing
plant that under the measure, is to be
built at Silverton in the San Juan
district.
State Mine Inspector Henehen has
Just received n letter from Congress-
man Taylor which conveyed the
above information. However. he
states that favorable report on the
bill has been made by the committee
with recommendation that it pass
There is belief that the bill will re-
ceive attention by congress in the
early part of the next session.
Commissioner Henehen Is some
what disappointed that this congress
will not reach the bill. for he was
anxious that the general government
get action on it at once so that the
plant might be erected during the
coming year. The success of the first
plant will determine as to the loca-
ton of other similar plants in the
'NshNah SlattS ores
exist. There is hardly a doubt but
that such plants will prove entirety
satisfactory, said Commissioner Hen
chen today. and that their establish
ment will mean additional profits in
mining districts that heretofore have
only able to give small returns. 1t
will mean the revolutionizing of the
mining industry in the west, and no
state will benefit more than Colorado
where rebellious ores exist in great
quantities in many districts.
Originally, an effort was made to
nave congress make appropriations
large enuogh to build and equip at
least three plants in this state, but
Congressman Taylor became convinc-
ed that such a bill would not pass
so the appropriation was limited to
only one plant.
