Show ing mado is so Urge that a mail will j certainly bo attracted very goon by the great freighting possibilities. 1 he liiiek-horn liiiek-horn mine is regarded by Mr. Karrick ai one of the best showings for a great mine Unit he hat ever seen. No development devel-opment of any consequence has been done, but the indication of a great mino are all there. Tho vein has been scored out by the action of the elements, the walls making quite a canon. Tho lead cuts across, tho formation, but the oro chute dips with the strata, and this condition has mystified mobt who have scon the property.

C. Karrick, who has recently recently re-cently returned from a trip to the Dep Creek country, is very enthusiastic regarding re-garding the future of that section. He declares his belief that it will soon be the scene of active operations and that its product will bo large. Mr. Karrick went out there to look at the country. He entertained an unfavorable opinion of it before he paid it a visi. but alter having made a cry thorough inspection of a number of tho camp, be Is satislied that the highest anticipations regarding the country will be mote tuau realized. Mr. Karrick has had prospeotors in the Deep Creek country for several months, and through them and by other means ho bus secured a great many in-terusts. in-terusts. Uin late trip was for the purpose pur-pose of looking over bis prospects, and he is more than satisfied of their value. The Spring Creek was-discovered by his men, and a number cf very valuable locations have been made there. The Iron claim is one that was located for iron but it was found that the ore car- rics UiJ ounces silver to the tou. The Mahogany vein is another of surprising -fit;ini't: Three assays' from it ra- trued 131.51), 2j.20 and 271.21 ounces respectively. Tho vein is from 6 to 10 lout wide and all the vein matter seems to be pay. Mr. Karrick made a personal per-sonal inspection of the group of claims, which covers 0000 feet of the vein, anil f:cl.s satislied that it is a bonanza property. prop-erty. The ore ia free milling. It ia a chloride and from surface indications it seems to bo in almost exhausUsis quantities. Tho Boston is another claim owned liy Mr. Karrick i the same district. It has a strong vein which has been located lo-cated for SOUi) ft Mr, Kirriek's samples from it uairtied 1029.0V ounces silver per ton. Theso are all quart, veins, and are all strong and well de-lined. de-lined. Tim district is in ifce main Deep Creek rau'o and proiii.scs to bo one of the morft important of that section. Xo discovering Mr. Karrick statet, are being made ail the time and many of them are most promising, some being apparently bonanza properties. The early prospectors in that country con-lined con-lined themselves to tho granite. Ueccut explorations have beeu carried on along the limu belts and now the pioneers are iiuding great leads in the porphyry aud quaruitfl contacts. Tho district as a whole is 150 miles long by 7.) miies in wiuh. Along the main Deep Creek range tho mineral is found every ten miles and there is no limit to the possibilities of the region. The valley is as line ns this in wnich Salt Lake City is located. There is plenty of water and timber i found in the greatest abundance. The agricultural agricul-tural possibilities arc of the highest order, or-der, the region being capable oi suosist. ing a large population. Mr. Karrick found there the finest oats thai he had ever seen and other fa; m product are equally superior in quality. When asked about the opportunities for a railroad, Mr. Karrick said thai his visit had convinced hiM thai it laiiro.td into that section ould become a Letter Let-ter paying liue than any lie knew of. it wouid carry nil the freight it could possibly pos-sibly handle, ami thai, too, from the hour when it should be opened. There are 500 or more very promising prospects pros-pects in the district witii a great many that will certainly produce liua ily. It is reasonable to suppose that there will be some of the greatest mines thero known in the United States while the number of ordinarily good proper-lieu cannot fail to bu lare.

The ore is there and it can be heated; and Mr. Karrick will not wait on the railroa.i builders to get thesdver to market. Mr. Karrick made a careful inspection inspec-tion of the Dogway district, and he declares de-clares his belief that it will become another Titittc.
