Notwith-standing the fact that this surface ore has been worked mid gouged by elder-ider- s there is still to lie seen mineral everyw here, much of which I um told is of siiUicicitt volume to be made prolit-ablo- . At this particular point (Kureka liilll. tin, mass of the limestone is not trav-ersed by quartz veins which .seem to bo quite well delincd and continuous for a considerable distance, ruunln.it nearly parallel with each other, but connected ic many places by w hat might be termed cross-veins- , seams and fractures. The quartz seems to bo blown all through the rock. This ore, where it cropped out, was HK.il IN CHLORIDES AND MORS' SILVKR, and what there still remains as evidence of what has been done in the past is highly copper-staine- - there mill being on the dumps manv tons of the most beautiful specimens of a.nr-ite- , carbonates and malachites This tiro Is quart, and a charged dolomltio limestone, carrying silver and copper. What 1 have said coneerninti the out-crop on Eureka hill, will apply with tho same force to the Mammoth, Ca-res- Northern Spy, lllack Dragon, Governor, and other mines. On the Mammoth which, by the way, was tiot misnamed tho ore seemed to CKOI- - KVF.UVWIII.RK, and it would have been impossible for any man to hao walked over the sur-face without discovering the mine, and which, when discovered, would have convinced the veriest novice in the busi-ness of mining and one willmwt any enthusiasm in Ins nature, that ho had at last struck a bonuna. lint these are only notable exceptions where the ore burst through tho surrounding rocks, for in tho working of the various mines some of tho rich-est and most exhaustive deposits have been found where there was no indication on the surface, what-ever. Hettiruing again to this system of ore .ones or deposits, reference to which vas made before, I will say tlml the conscientious opinion of every proud-Ken- t mining man in tho distiict Is, not-withstanding what bis position may have, beeu in the litigations of some years ago. when there were numberless theories of the character of these vein systems and tho proper dellniliou to give them, whether BROAD VEIN MIX ERALI.ED ZONKS and many others; there seems to be a practical unanimity in tho assertion that there is a connecting link from ono to the other. 'This is not always so clear when the ore bodies are being extracted, but when they have been worked out thorn Is always found some clay seam, stringer of ore, slip or something else that will lead either above or below or laterally to another bonanza, which may even differ in tho character of I be ore from tho other; ono slope being galena and tho other silicioiis ore, or, a body of clay having a commercial Milne. So that the trained manager in not alto-gether at sea when one pocket is worked out, in socking in aunthor. And vet tho discovery of some of tho bodies have been lai'ge'y the result of accident. The Instance most worthy of mention is found on tho flOl) level of the Bullion-Huc- k properly, the local namo of tho stopo 1 have forgotten.

Previous to this time many of the pros-pectors diil not know what the soft, waxy substance was. and had 1 u throwing it over tho dumps and saving galena that would only jo a paltry few hundred uum-.es- . Such incidents arc tho accidents of mining. lint no more such ore was thrown away. After that, tho hill swarmed with miners w ho dug on t ho surface and bur-rowed immediately lniieath it; gouging out the rich chlorides and horn silver wherever it could bo found. Some of this mineral w as treated in Salt Lake City, some at Homansville, near hero, some at Reno, Nov., tunl many other places. It is stated w ith a posiVtveness by old timers that a HALF MILLION DOLLARS were taken off the surface here, or at least at no greater depth than twenty feet. A great deal of this ore was sold to buvers here, who paid from .?." to Ml) per sack for it. But unfortunately, good i hings have an end, and so the time tiually came when tho mineral deteriorated in value, and be-came more dillieult to extract. Then for a time tho district nullered a decline In 1S,1 the original locators sold the property to a company of capitalists from Ton du Lac, Wisconsin, who be-came involved in debt, when it was mortgaged to Wells, Fargo & Co., who alter lighting the matter in tho courts for some years secured title. After it had been in the bauds of this company for some time it was pur-chased by Joab Lawrence and a Mr. Whitney, who jointly executed a sale to John (J. Packard mid a man by the name of Ward. ( When Ward had owned it for a brief season anil it failed to i t MAKK HIM A MILLIONAIRE in a week, ho concluded that he had been bunkoed, and had Whitney ar-rested for swindling, misrepresentation, and obtaining money uuder false pre-tenses. i Alas! "What fools tnese mortals bo"! Poor Ward was, I believe, incarcerated for a time in some baslilc, but was shortly after liberated. How completely he has beeu vindi-cated! After this tho mine was worked in a desultory way by lessees, who had uo settled policy of development only to gouge out tlio ore wherever it could le found, until the year of IN7H. when it was reorganized and a vigorous cam-paign inaugurated. This, brietly, is a part of tho history of the mines of Knreka for a period of nine years. Since theu the record of the production of tho mines, and tho throes of vexatious litigations through which they passed for,' threo years, is more generally known. OFOLOIilCAL DATA. The area of this district, or moro par-ticularly the portion Contained in the limestones, in which the precious met-als have been found, in appreciable quantities, is approximately ten miles long and from onu-hal- f to throe miles wide, .,!-,(- With the exception of the veins at Silver City and Uiamorid, which are in the eruptive and porptryritic rocks and which will be referred (o later on; the producing mines are embraced in this bell of limestone, which is of a dolo-mitl- c or mag'icsian character, travers-ing the country in a general northwest-erly and southeasterly direction. In some instances where the limestono has been in close contact with quart, it lias, doubtless through sympathy, be-come charged with silica a change taken place ami made it a silicons lime-stone. nfoimcd, -- that though ho might not wish to impart information, Tin: Times i csired to secure some, ami though he aught make it difficult to secure, it WOULD tiET THERE ALL Till: SAME.'1 This tells tho story. The town is not only getting along slow, but devilish iuw lor a camp that is producing so much money ami where so many men jire employed, its equal cannot be touml in the United Stales. This Is not said m a spirit of captious criti-cism but is stated as a COLD RLOODED FACT. There is nothing so much needed in tho town as a little new blood and a Rood deal more public spirit. Ono tiling that has militated against, the place or any improvements of the streets, etc., is the fact that it Is not organized as a city with Us own municipal government. Every do.lar of taxes and revenues derived lrom lieeuses and other sources is taken away, when it should be expeuded at homo in securing some sou of sanitary arrangements, improving the water facilities and ninny other things neces-sary to the health and prosperity of its people. To a stranger wlio came into the town in midday, it would seem lifeless, dull, depressing; a razor-backe- d hog saunters leisurely down the street and scratches his lean sides against a convenient hitching post, atid then goes and lays by the side of a de-bauchee who is peacefully sleeping off the effects of too numerous cups, taken the night previous. But there is a disposition on the part of nearly all the people to throw off some of tho bonds which they have been bound. They realize that they have plenty of raw'material and mea-urelc-wealth in tho hills to support a wide-awak- e progressive American city of five thousand people. Already steps are being taken to incorporate and to raise money among those most inter-ested to advertise and give to the world some telling truths of the reasons why things are as they are. But tho fame of 'Tintic mines is spreadiug. It is getting a good deal of tho overflow of Salt Lake's real estate boom. There has been more investigators if not in-vestors visited the camp in the last two months than in any previous two years, all of whom havs gone away" most agreeably impressed. Some may re-turn, buy a initio, or bond and work one, when if it turned out well a dozen more capitalistic ventures would be projected. Capital only wants proper encouragcinetit and fair treatment with a reasonable certainty of satisfac-tory returns for its investment. Wliat the future of this district would be if it were as actively developed as other sections less favored, no one can foretell. At the present time there are em-ployed between five and six hundred miners, which of itself would indicate that there was expended for labor be-tween fifteen and eighteen hundred dollars a day, which of Itself ought to support in comfort a population of at least five thousand people ought to guarantee smooth and clean streets, good schools, water facilities and good sanitary conditions. The people are beginning to realize that they have been asleep and liiauy of them said they needed nothing so much as a good ginning up, to awaken a little more spirit in them. But suuioientspaee has been devoted to the town and the mines have not been been touched, which are of the greater interest. THE FIKST DISCOVKIiV. To Silver City belongs the honor of the first discovery of ore in the Tintic district, and, if my information is correct, the Sunbeam, which is in the porphyry, was the lirstmine found, and which lias been continuously and re-muneratively productive- for a distance of nearly five thousand feet, and is still being worked by Pat Condon and other leasers. This discovery was made late in tho vear lBUO by a party of prospectors, among whom wero Major Harmon, Ed Pike, Steven B. Moore and others, who wero returning to Provo from the west Oquirrh mountains, where they had been on a prospecting expedition. Being so favorably impressed with the mineral possibilities of the country con-tiguous to Silver City, they concluded to camp for the winter and prospect tho district. SO WELL DID THEY DO THIS that to this parly of men belongs the credit of discovering many of what are now tho prominent mines. After some weeks of work in the porphyry, some of the party pressed on north over the limestone hill which was not theu held in high repute. In the early part of the winter of 1870 the Mammoth was found and somo considerable work done on the immense outcrop of copper-staine- ore which shows on that property Con-tinuing north on what they believed to be the strike of the Mammoth ore channel, over the mountain which lies to the south of Eureka, they came down on tiic hog-bac- which is now known as Eureka hill. Who could imagine or describe their sensations when they first viewed this wonderful deposit of ore? and tho measure of their capacities. To those who will do me tho honor to read these columns, I would say, that it is my intention to state plain facts as plainly as possible, and to avoid as far as a mind stripped of romance can, auy exaggeration or drawing on tho of the imagination. While many of the people of Salt Lake City think they are fully informed of the mineral resources of Utah gen-erally, and this district particularly, it is doubtful if more than a small per-centage of them have anything more thau a very vague anil indefinite conception of the capacity of Tiutic or tho MAGNITUDE OF ITS OlTl'lT, whilo tho outside world knows scarcely anything. The reason, perhaps, why this state of affairs exists, is because the attention of the business meu has been largely takeu up with other interests, neglect-ing tho most valuable source of our wealth; Whilo in many ways tho be-havior of commerce lias accomplished great results and is still working tire-lessly, the mining camps of Utah have been ' LITTLE ADVERTISED, aud for years little foreign capital has been invested here. That, the public know little of tho mines of this district is largely due, no doubt, to the fact that none of tho mines are listed on the stock exchanges, where thuir dividends, would be a matter of record and cognizance. But while Utah has been lethargic in hemldiug her mineral treasures to the world, other localities lmvo not been, tind they have Consequently reaped a harvest from investors who have devel-oped the . , HIDDEN KICHKS, and made empires where formerly there were only itiitrnanted hills aud valleys. Utah's silver mines are her principal rcliar.ee ami her people should lend every aid and pin tlieir perpetual faith. But it is not a question of blind trusting to a fortunate future, for here is some-thing tangible to which to tie. In an active experience of some years in mining I have no hesitancy in saying that there does not exist in tho United States today a district of so much prom-ise as this SAME TINTIO, about which so little is known, and where so little capital has been ex-pended. It would be a cool mind, indeed, that could contemplate the wonderful out-crop of high grade ore there is displayed on tho top of Eureka hill for a distance of at least 1000 feet, or that of the Mam-moth mine, and not bo forcibly im-pressed with its fabulous richness. This surface ore is not alone pleasing to the eye; it has yielded substantial trial re-sults in the shape of COINED SILVER DOLLARS that jingling years ago in the pockets of humlrehs of miners who leased, worked and chlorided the surface de-posits. Then tho change caino and the poor prospector no longer had a prop-erty right in the production. While manv hundreds of thousands of dollars haver beeu extracted from the ground In Tintic that has gone to build pala-tial homes in other places, very little has been expended here where it was produced. Although nearly all "J the ore shipment-- have been most skillfully suppressed by those for whom the mines have done so much-ma- king them millionaires the public are at last hearing of this great mining sec-tion in the Ociuirrh mountains ami manv prospectors and representatives nfennftal are coming daily looking i, Utah, Jtiue 5.

An upraise was started on this pipe which in a distance of about twenty feet widened and flattened out until it was at least twenty feet wide and tho top is not yet reached. There is many other inleresling geo-logical phenomena of the faulting oi l he limestones atid their agency in the deposition of the ore bodies and which do not seem to have been much studied here, but which the space of this article will not permit of there being ex-plained. It is hoped that this brief recitation of some of the geoligieal features of tho limestone willdie sufficiently clear nnd exhaustive to give readers an Intelli-gent idea of tho character of these mines. IS TI1K I'OKI'imtV at and near the town of Silver City the limestone bell abruptly terminates, and the porphyry formation begins. This porphyry seems.at places, intended itself between tho line and the quartzite. At this camp and in the south and cast of it at c Diamond, there are in the plor-plivr-in numerable veins and ga'dies wliicii in the early "seventies pro-duced a great deal of valuable ore, suf-ficient to make many prospectors rich, From the surface down to a depth of two hundred feet, where the water level was struck; when the character of the one up to that time had been either a chloride and other free milling ores, or a galena changed to a rebel-o-sulphide find also deteriorated in value. WHEN THIS CHAKr. TOOK PLACE, The wealth which had been extracted was either frittered away by their im-provident prospector or it was nafely lodged in the pockets of the capitalist from w hich, if it was not for the having to erect machinery or continue explor-ation to determine whether or not the base ore could be penetrated and other remunerative bodies found below, and for a long time those camps, particularly Diamond, were practically deserte'd. Where at the last named place there were ut one time s thousand people there Is not now more than half a dozen. The miners left in shoals and have never returned, Some of these iorphyry veins are now being worked in the vicinity of Silver City in a desultory, fashion, by leasers, but none of the companies have yet inaugurated an aggressive, campaign. But the great reliance of Tintic is in the limestone, ami to that the most attention will be devoted. THE WESTERLY' 1IOLNDARV of this belt of limestono is quartzite, which seems lo preserve an almost regular course and uniformity. What name to give the rocks which form the easterly wall of this limestone, seems to be somewhat doubtful. 'They are cer-tainly eruptive and partake of the characteristics of the porphyries, trachytes aud syenites; their exact classification from all authorities I have consulted, my own observation being a matter o"f individual opinion, if indeed all aro not substantially correct. This eruptive rock has in some places been thrown up to a considerable height and has probably in many places over-flowed the limestones, which would account for ils being much wider and narrower in some places than in others. It has been observed that where tho trachytes or porphyrus rise to considerable moun-tains, THE LIMESTONE IS RESTRICTED to uarrow limits, perhaps less than a mile wide, while in other places w here the mountains are not so precipitous, the limestone is three or even four miles from its western to eastern boun-daries. Without an exhaustive examination of tho various mines of tho district arid a more thorough study of the phenom-ena of theirore deposits, it will; per-haps, give a reasonable definition when I characterize them as a system of ore zones in stone. Technically considered, or for tho purposes of litigation, they might be pronounced veins by some experts and denied by others. SOME AUTHORITIES MIGHT INSIST that everv thing embraced within the walls of the quaHzit ard syenite was one gigantic ore channel, and so call it a vein, lode, impregnated zone, or any thing else that su.led his particular fancy or that of his employer. But after some roe iderabie observ a-tion and a careful weighing of the opinions of those wh have been oper-ating liere seme years and who have made a close stud; of the question. I am convinced that ia the findings of ore there is NO CERTAIN RULE that will obtain. It is any where you find it in tho limestone. In mauy In-stances ore or mines have been found where there were no surface indica-tions and where, in the-- opinions of a great majority, it was considered highly improbable that any would be found. Three notable instances of this are the Keystone, Eagle and Bullion-Bec- k mines, in none of w hich I am in-formed did the ore cropout. In the first named mine, none of consequence was found until a depth of some 00 feet was , attained. . - ; Beyond I lie fact that m the Eagle mine there was a buie barren qnnrtz , aud chert on the snrfm-e- . there Tias bt tie to indicate that a mine would ever ; be the result of ler.?l"pment Still it must not be inferred from this t&te-nieij- t that .r did not in some plait, c. n.e to llir suif'ice Ix-t- in abniela'.a- - ; .nidof.iricbqnnlitv.for on and over; the crest of Eureka hill. a far outh as what is known as the Centenntal-Kurek- a group of nunc.
