MIN E A D XE
TO tE REVIVED
Report Of Expert So Good That
Spring Likely to See Big
Things Accomplished

Mr.. Dan Reber, known very we'll to
the mining fraternity of Idaho and
the West, is here from Philadelphia
where he has made his headquarters
Tor the past ten years. During all
this time Mr. Reber has made at least
one trip annually west, usually into
Elmore county and the mining pro-
perty at Dixie, where he spent so
much time and nearly $200, 900 develop
ing the Gold King and driving the
big tunnel for developing it and ad-
joining claims.
Litigation in the state courts caused
a shutdown of these promising pro-
peGties and Dixie as a mining camp
for the past dozen years has been
little else than memory. But it
looks better The prospects are
Frightening and the coming spring
will In all probability reveal am ac-
tivity such as to bring JOY to many
OF the old timers who have pinned
their faith in Mr. Reber and the min
Ing property he represents.
Last week an expert mining en-
gineer from the United States Min
ing company's staff made such a fine
report to the owners that it is
scarcely among the probabilities they
will further delay active work, and
as the expert and Mr.. Reber came
out to Dixie for the purpose of Civ
lls the ground thorough goin over
with this end in view, something is
sure to be done at Dixie when the
weather settles.
Many an old miner who knows the
ground will tell you, should you ask
him, that this lis one of the biggest
and Slrest bets, and that If Mr..
Reber had not been cramped for ready
money during his management and
development work in the past, Dixie
would today be one of the best little
camps In the state. But we are ad-
visad that this lack of means will not
b allowed to delay the work if it
Is decided to begin operations this
spring Opening up of the mines at
men and mean much to local trades
Dixie will give employment to many
men.
