Salt Lake Herald. COAL DEP0SIT3 IN THE UNITED KINGDOM Coal is known to exist in the United Kingdom to a depth of 4,000 feet, sufficient, at about the present rate of output, to suffice for 371 years, but that this period will be considerably extended, seeing that there is every probability that mining can be carried on to a depth of 7,000 feet, although at this depth there will not be anything like the area of coal that there is at the former limit And it further seems probable to expect that this period of supply may be still furt- her extended by the more economical use of fuel, due to the establishment of central electrical supply stations, and the utilisation of Mond and other gas producing processes, and of engines, as well as other means of obtaining a higher percentage of the best value of the fuel.

Weir who has Iwi identified in the east with Tonopah ever since the Tonopah Mining company was organised and who subsequently made an extensive tour of the district at the time Tonopah stock was quoted at $1$ share, expects greater things from the camp. The most misunderstood problem affecting Tonopah today, said Mr. Wdr, is the fact that the camp Is reputed to be so rich and it is still not paying dividends. This feature seems to be wholly due to the fact that people will not appreciate the trying conditions which have existed in that barren desert since the days the camp was founded. It seems that all the requisites of a mining camp have been omitted in this particular section. There is no water, no fuel, no timber, and no fluxes. None of these needful auxiliaries are at hand. Yet, and notwithstanding these handicaps the camp has grown ever since It was first discovered. These necessary adjuncts have been created by the ingenuity of man and by the lavish application of capitaL One mine alone, the Tonopah property, shows a total of $7,000,000 worth of ore raised to the surface of which $3,000,000 has been handed to en r;11 .

The great development of mining, agriculture and manufacturing in the last few years has resulted in a demand for labor which the country itself cannot supply. It is true there are lots of Mexicans everywhere, but not plenty of Mexicans who will work, and work all the time. The Mexican has a penchant for holidays and a small surplus in his bank account la aufflclent inducement to cause him to take a protracted vacation. An attempt has been made to Induce the negro from the south into Mexico, but without result The labor employers naturally will look to China and now workmen are coming inthe slant-eye- d to Mexico at a lively rate. While this Increase In the common labor supply is a good thing for the mining Interests at present It Introduces into Mexico the old problem of coolie labor which will have to be met with sooner or later.

Will Evans has returned to Park City after a visit to the Texas mining claim about eleven miles north and four miles east of Salt Lake in which a small fissure containing lead ore as soclated with silver and gold was en countered last season. In opening up Mr. Evans has driven three short tunnels and sunk a shaft, the latter to a depth of 35 feet, the ore exposed In this showing as much as 71 per cent lead. 25 ounces silver and $2.50 gold per ton.
