BONANZA ORE LACKING
Salt Laker Returns Confident
That Camp Will Make
Good on Merits.

The truth about the Lynn district of
Nevada Is coming out and II is not at
all In accord with the information recent
ly brought to Salt Lake City by those
more anxious to boom than help the dis
trict. George W. Danley OF Salt Lake
visited the Lynn camp returning
Wednesday from Nevada. and he was
seen by the Tribune late in the day In
the company of Charles Rollins. Il di-
rector of the Big Six company.
II was on the Big Six property that
the boomers had eleven inches OF Sl1 900
Per ton gold ore. Director Rollins made
the following statement to The Tribune
yesterday:
Such a report is wholly unfoundcd
ana unfair to the company and camp.
The latest advlces we have received from
the Big Six state that on the 100 level
there are twenty-seven feet Of ore which
assays SO. l3 sold per ton, and there arc
three feet of this which assays $50
per ton. The company is now preparing
to stopc in this thrce-toot streak This
is the truth about the Big SIX and the
truth Is good enough for us"
Mr. Danley and his associates have
acquired the old Blue Wing property at
Lynn. once a producer back In 1874. and
a company is to be formed for the pur-
pose of taking this property over. 1t
is an elghteen-lnch streak exposed that
assays SO per cent lead and nineteen
ounces silver.
About the Lynn district. Mr.. Danlcy
stated that conditions while new are full
OF promise. On his way out he met G.
G. Higgins. we'll known In Utah. who told
Mr Danley to tell Salt Lake that the
camp looked TO be ali right IT is re-
ported that Wingfield interests have
taken an option on the Barney broup of
six claims for large consideration.
There Is a considerable amount OF ac-
tiYity throughout the district and the
camp now boasts OF a boarding house
Where meals may be secured. but those
going In had better take their own bed
ding. The camp has a saloon already
and townsite proposition. It looks as
II the summer will bring forth a good
deal OF interesting matter from Lynn.
