Out of curiosity, directors took a sample of the streak of ruby silver ore showing in the fissure 225 feet back of the face and had it assayed yesterday. This sample assayed $4 in gold, 448 oz. of silver and 11.1 per cent of lead to the ton. Copper values of ore of this character are said to run as high as at least 15 per cent. Park-Bingha- m Out-Loo- k Encouraging Progress of operations at the Park City and the Bingham properties of the Park-Bingha- m Mining Company is being at-tended with encouraging results. Directors who visited the Bingham estate, where the But-terfield tunnel is being driven through the company's holdings report that during the last week a breciatted quartzite zone has been entered and crosscut a dis-tance of seventy-fiv- e feet. Close to the face on Tuesday when directors of the company visited the property a two-fo- ot fissure had been opened up in which there were seams and streaks of high-grad- e galena ore, assays of which gave the following values to the ton; Lead, 40.8 per cent. Fourteen ounces of silver and $1 in gold. Fifteen feet back of the face . - another fissure measuring about two feet and showing even bet-ter mineralization has been ex-posed. Samples of the streaks and bunches of ore, which in nlnroa nrp siv tn inchns wide, assayed as follows to the ton: Four dollars in gold, 2.3 oz. of silver and 19.8 per cent lead. The pronounced strength of the many fissures cut and the intense mineralization on the Butterfield tunnel horizon fully 1800 feet vertically below the surface at the present face, as well as the intense shattering of formation are considered by the management to be exceedingly favorable conditions.

Wright Telephone Man Laughs . at Binghamites At a weekly luncheon of the Kiwanis Club last week A. L. Clark, Commercial Manager of the Mountain States Telephone Co. was the guest. The meeting was in charge of the chairman of public affairs committee. The luncheon was of the usual high order and it was clearly apparent that the guest enjoyed that Dart of the eveniner. The music furnished by Carl Field-so- e and Miss Bailey was also of high order and very entertain-ing . After the luncheon II. B. voiced the complaints of the club and all the people of Bing-ham concerning the local tele-phone system, the excessive tolls the inability of the patrons to get service owing to the anti-quated equipment in use here. Mr. Clark arose and with a sneer on his face told the Ki-wanis members that his comp-any was thoroughly satisfied with its exchange here and had not the slightest intention of changing it regardless of what the Kiwanis Club or the-peopl- e of Bingham thought. He admit-ted that the system was rotten and antiquated, that no place of the size and importance of Bingham had to endure such rel ics of past ages in telephony, but his company considered it good enough for Bingham and there was nothing further to be said about it. Strangely enough he flatly contradicted the state-ments of his predecessor and last representative the Compa-ny sent out to Bingham. One or the other of these two representatives are charter mem bers of the "Ananias Club," if not both of them. It was evident to all who heard Mr. Clark, that he had received his orders and like a good schoolboy repeated his les-son, but he overdid the job. He laughed when told that the com- - pany had not a booster in town and tried to make the local man-ager or the girls, the goat, but the club would not listen to that. We know that the local man-ager is doing all he can and re-markably well with his monkey tail outfit. As for the girls they are doing far more than the company which employs them has any just right to ex-pect. We all know they are the poorest paid employees in Bing-ham despite the fact that the telephone rate is higher here than any where else in the state. We know, also, that when the girls asked for a living wage the company does not hesitate to tell them they do not wish to have girls in their employ who have to work for a living, but only such girls as have parents to support them. We know, likewise, that the company can and does stoop to even lower means to force their employees to remain in their power. Mr. Clark quickly discovered that in the opinion of the club the (Continued on Fage Four) News Notes , From Lark Mrs. T. Teeter, of Bingham visited friends here on Monday before leaving for Colorado.
