ANOTHER BIG MILL
PLANNED~ FOR Ely
Coppermines Co. Wants to
Be Free From Trouble
With Ranchers.

The Ely Expositor states that one OF
the phases of the recent merger at that
Cal mp under the Consolidated Coppermlnes
company was the installation of large
concentrating plant and smelter, and the
OFFICIALS OF the company intend 10 make a
decision In this important matter by the
irst OF the coming month. General Man.
ager Gray leaves for New York on Sep
TEMPER ~, and 1t is tated to be his de-
sire that the new mill be located as near
Ely and East Ely as possible. In this
manner the company VIII elimina lie many
expensive factors, and the east slope OF
the mountain just north of the twin towns
Is the site that he favors.
one other matter which he is consid-
erlhS is the attitude OF the residents and
property owners in the vicinity OF the
proposed works. The Copperlnines man
agement desires TO eliminate II possible
any possibility OF future Interference with
opera tions as smelling propositions In
Utah, Montana and California have ex-
perienced. The smelter smoke problem
should be understood al the beginning and
the. management is in hopes that such
difficulties may be done away with be-
tore making the enormous expenditures
for mill and srnelter installation
An effort is being made TO grant ease
ments and waivers of damages from fu-
ture smelter operations, and as the bust
ness men in Ely desire the new plants
within easy reach OF their town the ef-
ly result favorably at an early date. What
another gigantic concentrating plant and
smelter and another modern copper pro-
ducer will mean to Ely business circles is
something that requires no vivid imagina-
tlon TO appreciate.

NEW BONANZA OVER
AT SILVER ISLAND

]. B. Stevens. the old prospector and
one of the best-knoWn and one of the
successful mining men OF Bingham and
other Utah camps has returned from a
visit to the Silver Island camp In the
Desert range, fifteen miles northwest OF
Wendover on the Western Pacific. He
went TO look over the Historian Mining
companys ground OF which he is pres-
dent and manager.
Several OF the old properties. he says,
have started TO work and they are doing
we'll especially the Gethn LIE Roy prop
erty, where 5000 ore is being sacked from
the lower tunnel, which gives 600 feet Of
depth below the apex. The vein is eighty
to 100 feet wide in places and IL can be
traced for miles. The veins Of the camp
are larger with depth.
Mr.. Stevenss company owns thirteen
claims. seven being on the southeast side
line Of the Gethin LIE Roy, and six on the
northwest lines. and he intends to return
soon and place a force OF men at work
on the property. He predicts a splendid
future for Silver Island, but realizes that
the camp is not yet half prospected
Mr.. Stevens twenty eight years ago
located and worked several groups of
claims in the Bingham camp, selling most
OF them for a fair price. This same
ground today is producing millions an
nually for shareholders OF such conpa-
niles as the Utah Copper and Ohio Cop
per companies. yet when he located IL his
a acquaintances laughed and termed it a
sheep ranch. Such Is the history OF
mining.

T|NT|C STANDS IN
NEED Of MORE WORK
Shipment and Dividend Rec
ord Is Danger Signal Need
ing Attention.

The proposition that there must be new
development and new ore bodies in Utah
mining camps has It's best emphasis In
Tintlc especially because as a rule Its
mining shares are more within the reach
of the average citizen than those of the
very high priced issues and because Of
the wide influence that Tintic prosperity
has upon the whole state, There Is not
a more ideal spot in Utah than Tintic
for Investment and mine development, the
record OF the camp speaks for itself, yet
the present production and dividend rec
ord likewise speaks for itself.
There have been not less than twenty
one dividend paying companies in recent
very few of this number today are
paying regularly. The few that are de-
pended on by virtue OF their resources
and value of their production are the
Eagle and Blue Bell and Iron Blossom
Among those companies which have been
included among the dividend payers Of
the district, but which today, either are
paying not at all or intermittently are
the Beck Tunnel, Bullion Beck. Carisa,
tral Lower Mammoth. Mammoth, May
Day. Opohongo Sioux Consolidated. S.
Swansea, Swansea, Uncle Sam, Victoria
Consolidated and Yankee Consolidated;
Here are about four regular dividend
payers OF dependa ole character to seven
teen OF more or less uncertainty,
Tintic shipments once ran over 200
carloads each week. while the present
rate IS about $50 cars. There can be
no denying that such condition exists,
talists are neglecting one OF the likeIiest
spots IN all the stale.
