Mohave County miner., 1915-06-19

owned the Prince of Wales and Ante lope mines, in the Cottonwoods. A suit was begun against him to take his property, He had bought and paid for it in good faith, and he resisted the suit. It was decided against him, he appealed and continued the fight until he finally won in the Supreme Court of the United States. The old records of the case make most interesting read ing. One of his attorneys was Ebon c. Ingersoll, over whose bier Robert G., in his touching tribute, said:
 "A thousand times have heard him quote the words, For justice. All place temple, and all season, sum- mer, and, in closing, said: Speech cannot contain our love; there was, there is, no gentler, stronger manlier man..
 Mining in the Cottonwoods was in one sense plunging in the dark; in another, the beginning of new educa- tion.
 "One man failed, another took up his unfinished work and made fortune.
 "The Emma mine was famous; then it was sold to an English company; they commenced its exploration and ran up against what is known as The Atwood Slip, where the vein faulted. Then tba,y aopL n ho ft QeO foat
 'It revealed a much higher grade of ore than the vast porphyry coppers across the valley in Bingham district, but it cannot be milled. However, it has sll the properties to make an ideal concentrating and smelling ore. MT. Jacobson has concentrated it lon a limited scale) and gathered the values of five and seven and as high as 10 tons into one, producing a product which is almost self-fuxing in a furnace.
 Imagine the tonnage in reef like that, at 12 cubic feet per ton, 5000 feet long, 36 feet thick and certainly 1, 800 feet deep. At last 1,000,000 tons
 is already developed. The only things needed to utilize it is a little further opening and cheaper transportation for the ore, both of which requisites will be provided in the coming IS months.
 ''Not one person in thousand of those who live almost at the base of the mountain in which these ores are hidden has the faintest idea of the treasures that are on the very eve of development. With this mountain drained, the work will be made easy. With that done and the tramway com pleted, steady stream of ore will be- gin to flow down the mountains with momentum and in volume which will increase for years.
 'It will, too, be product. which it will require an army of men to aexca- vate and handle, which will mean multitude of new homes, large in crease in the schools, marked increase in trade, new and immense demand for all food products, which will give thrill to trade all up and down Salt Lake Valley.
 "At brief intervals a millionaire will suddenly emerge from among his fellow miners and his children will tell the world that there is no such thing as luck, that their father started poor boy, but he possessed the genius to see in advance where small investments would be sure to return great results and that the reason he became richer than his neighbors was because he knew more than they did.
 But the blessing of the mines, aside from increasing the worlds wealth, will be that because of them many men will obtain employment, and other men, through them, will obtain a start in life which will culmnate in happy home and family that will be one of the bulwarks of State.
 Contemplating it, one cannot escape the conviction that of all industries mining is the one that best perpetuates labor and gives the greatest support to civilization. The bread that was raised last year is already consumed; the metals mined last year are still some where In permanent form, carrying on the world work. "-N v. Mining Age.
