More prospecting is now being done

years past, and some promising claims
have been discovered and staked out.
Road to Cost S3O,OOO,OOO Planned
A road passable the year around
from Silver City to MOgOllon is still
the biggest problem Of the camp and
much interest is being manifested IN
the Bear creek route, which it is pro-
posed TO construct at an outlay Of
approximately $4,000.
It is argued that a road which could
be travelled every day in the year
would make Mogollon the greatest
gold camp in the west. Transportation
facilities now are Inadequate, big mo-
