Ho U workiiiR twenty-six men, has live hundred tons of ore on the dump r.a.ly to ship, and will double his li.ro -h next week. This mine bids fair to rival the Kmma. ' Thu .Montezuma mine, hieher up1 tho hill, is largely owned and under iho conirol of Cul. K. A. Wall. He has an incline ''Jo leer, and mot of the way through solid ore. Tneir mine, so far as developed, shDws to be one of tho most valuable in the dis-' triet. Tho Colonel proposes to largely increase his force in the course of ten days. 'f ho Savage uiino adjoining the Montezuma is also larely owned and under the control of Col. Wall. It has an incline one hundred and thirty-five feet, and a shall from the bottom of 1 1 10 incline eighty live feet, proving it aUo to bo one of the valuable mines of the diitriet. , On a lino with the Savage is the 1 Hiawatha and the Bell mines, bothi showing good ore. i Co no down the hill and we strike tlu'.Calcdouia mine, owned and con--trolled by John Cuuillugtoo, of tho, Mlephant Store. It has an incline three hundred feet, and fine ore has , boon struck. . , . j h urt her to the west, and on a line with tho lluiuia and Flagstaff wo find the lleiief mine. Work was com-', nienced ou the mine last week. It shows a very large body of ore, and is one of the best defined ledges in the; district, the ore on the top showing ; some eighteen feet wide, but going down it has narrowed to ten feet and i is now well defined between two case-: ings, and tho ore is much richer thaD on tho top. This mine is owned by j Read. Liuch. Vincent, and Harkwell- : ihe above aro the principal mines 1 that are working. I find by visiting tho reeorder'a office that there are about eight hundred mines located in j the district, and as the snow disappears) many are preparing to commence i work. r- --' BUSINESS. AYe have a very fine hotel under the , management ot Messrs, Fuller li'. Furgusou, board and lodging aoout the ! same as in Salt Lake City. The i mercantile business is done mostly by one firm, Messrs. Clasby clllead, who keep a large stock and sell at Salt Lake prices, freight added, whereby they control this trade, also that of Big Cottonwood. Silver Fork, and Ameri-, can Fork. Alex. I. Llat't has a store under the management of Mr. O. G-. I Kimball, who makes a specialty ol family trade. .- We have one saloon - under the . mixed management of Messrs. Reed ; Davis, Ashton, Turbett ei Co., doing a good business; although the mercan-! tile houses do more or less whisky business. . 1 I intend to take every-day strolls, ' until I viit every mine in this district, dis-trict, also B g Cotionwood, Silver and1 American Fork, and will piost you. i Ait a Li a Piper, j r i |
