sulphur and PHOSPHORUS content is
not a serious consideration. The cost
of mining is low, compared to the
cost in other leading districts of the
United States, and no state in the
union is troubled less by labor dis
turbances.
The region where immediate devel-
opment is contemplated includes what
has been designated as the Iron
Springs district, situated about TWEEN
ty-two miles southeast Of Lund and
approximately 260 miles from Salt
Lake City, The ores occur in a SER
les of disconnected masses, covering
an area about twenty miles long and
mile and a half wide. The deposit
is composed chiefly of hematite iron,
in which occur occasional magnetic
blowouts. A great deal of ore is ex-
posed on the surface, and where it is
covered, for the most part, the over
burden is from one to FIVE feet thick.
Practically the entire deposit can he
handled with steam shovels.
The stripping of the orc reds rep
resents an extremely nominal eXpend-
iture, as compared with che stripping
costs in the Lake Superior region.
where the deposits are covered by
from thirty TO eighty feet OF over
burden
Because of the distance Of the de
post from the railroad, it may be
suggested that inadequate transpor-
tation facilities might initiate against
the opening of the field. In this con-
nection, however, it is an open secret
that strong financial interests already
are contemplating the construction of
branch connecting Cedar City and
it's nearby coal deposits and the iron
fields with the Salt Lake Route in the
vicinity of Lund.
For several weeks past Walter X
Yorston, formerly with the Pearson
Engineering company and the builder
VI TIE HdIIOW-eduSc iodu III VIC Fhiep
district, has been conducting investi.
cations in Iron county as to the feas-
Utility of the proposed road. The syn.
dictate which Mr.. Yorston represents
in this instance also has acquired some
promising iron holdings. The line Of
grade, it is understood, has been DIES
ignated and plans are being arranged
with a view to the construction of ;
standard-gauge road. The distance
from Lund to the Desert Mound iroi
deposits is approximately twenty-fou
miles, and an extension of approx
mately ten miles will serve the com
munity of Cedar City and the vas
coal deposits which are being opened
, up. 1t is reported that the material
necessary for the construction of tn
proposed branch are available.

Plans for Standard
Gauge Road AfOot.

In a report prepared by one Of the
most eminent iron experts in Ameri-
ca it is set forth that the tonnage is
so extensive as to render further drill
ing supurfuous, in so far as the de
velopment of steel industry in Utah
is concerned.
There is probably no other district
in the United States where so many
varieties of high-grade iron ore occur
in so limited an area, and where phys
zeal conditions are so favorable to
economic mining and preparation of
ores for an ideal furnace charge Utah
ores are free from titanium, and the

From this comparison 1t is evident
that Utah iron ores from Iron and
Washington counties are of quality
which is a happy medium between
those from the two other great re-
gions, having higher metallic con-
tent than either, being almost equal
in other respects to the ores from the
Lake Superior country. Investigations
also indicate that there is considerable
Bessemer ore in the southern Utah
fields, probably as much as 20 per
cent of the entire deposit.
A report prepared by the U. S. geo
logical survey twelve years ago shows
about the same general results as in
dictated in the comparison. The eY-
istence of Bessemer ore was admitted,
/ but the quantity was estimated as
small. The estimated tonnage at that
time was at least 40,000,000 tons, with
the qualification that there probably
was a great deal more, inasmuch as
the work done at that time was eX-
tremely limited. More recent investi-
cations indicate that there are any
where from 500,000,000 to 100000
coo tons of ore in the region, which
includes the Iron Springs. Pinto and
Bull Valley districts, covering an area
of approximately sixty miles long and
a mile to a mile and a half wide,

The Tribune article goes on to COM
the shores of the Utah Lake, calls
attention to the by-products, which
will be of much value to the stock
holders, and explains in detail what
the industry will mean to Utah. Mr..
Grimes, the writer and who has the
editorial management of the mining
department of the Tribune, spent a
few days in this county a couple of
weeks ago, getting some first hand in
formation on the resources of this
county and was much impressed with
what he saw here. His personal OBJ
servations have been augmented with
facts CLEANED from the promoters and
property owners, and may be regard
ed as not only accurate, but also au-
thentic. Mr.. Grimes personally in
formed The Record that he was not
at liberty at this time to make known
all that he knows in this connection,
but that unquestionably there was a
great program of activity near at
hand for this section of country, and
that he was here merely on scouting
expedition in advance of the big in
terests who would soon come here
Mr.. Yorston, who is concerned chief
ly with the railroad end of the pro-
gram, but who has also picked up val
liable iron properties for the South
ern Utah Development company which
he represents, states that the PROPOSE
ton is going along entirely satisfac-
torily-in fact to quote his exact
words. "Couldn't be better"-and he
fully expects that the railroad will be
under construction in "A short time.
In connection with II. A. McCollem,
stakeholder in the company, and Pr,
f.. Green, Mr.. Yorston has spent the
past week in Cedar City perfecting
| the arrangements for the building of
the road. Owing to Federal Govern
ment regulations, which prohibit the
incorporation of companies of more
than one hundred thousand dollars
capitalization, it has been found ne"-
essary to take over a company already
Incorporated for sufficient to build the
proposed railroad. For this purpose
the Old Capital Petroleum Company
has been purchased, which owns the
mineral rights to 5000 acres of prom
Using oil lands in Willard county. 1t
is proposed to sell enough bones Ia
build the railroad.
The project has the endorsement Of

Very Sad Bereavement.

The three months old baby of Mr.
and Mrs. Edwin Webb died of pneu-
monia last Monday evening between
eight and nine o'clock, after an illness
of little more than week. The
funeral services were held Wednesday
afternoon at o'clock, in the taber-
nacle.
The fact that the husband and IA
Their is now serving his country in
Frace, makes this case particularly
sad one. The young mother is nearly
frantic with grief, this being theii
only child and born since the departure
of the father for the service.
