(EDITOR'S NOTE: Thi ii lh Mith of a aeriei of eight article! on the history f th metal mining induatrj in Utah.) The first discovery after Bingham Bing-ham was by prospectors who flocked to the Wasatch range of Mountains and discovered the famous fa-mous Emma mine at Alta. Four prospectors sank a shaft through the hard rock on the north rim of the now famous Alta ski basin and after 10 months struck a rich vein of ore. This was in 18CS and the ore carried such high values in silver that it was dragged down the precipiteous Little Cottonwood canyon on hides. From there it was shipped to Ogden by o..-team where it was routed to Swansea, Wales around Cape Hor nfor smelting. smelt-ing. The old Emma mine had - her boom years and her lean years, as did all mines of the district. At one time Alta had a population of 6,000 persons and a hundred business busi-ness buildings. Its mines for a time poured out its metals with a lavish hand, producing more than $37,000,000, largely from rich near Control Flies During Fruit Processing ; Season Says Expert It is especially important for sanitation purposes, that flies be controlled during the fruit processing pro-cessing season, Dr. G.

With typhoid and dystntery being spread by flies, and the threat that flies may be a trr -mitting agent for infantile paralysis par-alysis ,the entomologist strongly strong-ly advocates an immediate clean-up of flies throughout Utah.

But the high grade days are gone and Alta, like other mining districts is seeking out the lower grade ores further beneath the earth's crust. Spurred by the discoveries at Alta, prospectors swarmed over the mounting to Park City on the east and American Fcrk Canyon on the south where new mines were discovered. While the first discoveries at Park City are the subject of some disagreement, the location of the Walker and Webster claims by Ru-fus Ru-fus Walker were among the first. This was in 18G9 and by 1872 numerous nu-merous other filings had been made. The incident that reaelly stirred Park City to life as a mining district dis-trict did not come until 1872. This was when George Hearst, then a mining scout, bought the Ontario mine for $27,000, and quickly placed the mine in production.

Watkins stacks up pretty well with Harry Har-ry J. Brown, Washington correspondent, corres-pondent, in his recent feature, "How They Stock Up in the Capitol." The feature describes the activities act-ivities and leanings of all the senators of the intermountain states. In it he has this to say of the Senator from Orem: "Utah's junior senator, who has just completed his first session, ses-sion, is legislatively a different type from his colleague (Thomas.) (Thom-as.) His prime concern has been the welfare of his state and ol the west, although he has views, often pronounced on foreign affairs af-fairs and labor. By choice Watkins was made p. member of the committees on public lands and on nublic works, being chairman of the Indian In-dian affairs subcommittee of the former, an assignment that made excessive drains upon his time during the late session. He took his duties seriously. When he found that other senators senat-ors on the Indian suDcommmee could not spare the time, he held hearings, conducted correspondence correspond-ence and reported to the senate more bills than came from any other subcommitteee of the public pu-blic lands committee. Then he stuck around and saw thr.t his bills wcit passed. His achievement in Ihis respect res-pect was close to record breaking. break-ing. It yielded him little for his own state, but he F-rved many other states and put many senators sen-ators under obligation As a member me-mber of public works, he 'participated 'parti-cipated in the framing of river and harbor and flood control bills, winning the first recognition recogni-tion Utah has obtained since the Hood control program was inaugurated. in-augurated. During his first term Senator Watkins learned a goo.l deal a-bjut a-bjut what it means to be "jjiven tao run firound" either b the senate .-r by government deaprt-ments, deaprt-ments, all parts of the education of a new senator. He ran into a lot of this when he ui-alertook to put through the senate a bill that would have disposed dis-posed of the Fo-t Douglas military mili-tary reservation ip occordance with the wishes of Die stale, the university .the Utah national guard and others concerned. Perhaps the senator's greatest disappointment came from Ihe armed services committee. He had the verbal assurance of nearly nea-rly every senator pre.n'. that he would support the Wdtkim bi'i. Then the committee voted to table the bill. Sen. Watkins did not abandon his fight. By reason of h.s persistence, the armed services committee, only 24 hours before congress adjourned, had pas ed by congress con-gress a concurrent resolution tha withhold historic properties' like Fort Douglas from WAA until next March 15, before which date the committee ex pects to bring in a satisfactory! substitute for the Watkins biU- 0L - Postoffice Warns Against Chain Letters Lyle McDonald, Orem post master, has received instruction trom the Postoffice Department relative to chain letters.
