Show BOOM AT SOUTH PASS I Outlook for Swcctwatcr Mines Better Than for Thirty Years South Puss Wyo July 2Not since the boom days of GS and CD has the outlook for the Swcetwaler mines been so flatterIng as now The work of the past year has demonstrated that all the mines here need is development to make them metal producers Nowhere In the world perhaps arc there liner showings upon the surface and for the depth so far reached than Is seen here among the foothills of the Wind River mountains moun-tains The theory advanced by some that the ore values would decrease with I depth has been knocked Into a cocked hat by tho late development in the Carriso mine and others I At a depth of 300 feet the Carrlsa shows richer and wider bodies of ore than ever before On the new level now being run is slxtccn feet of fortydollar freemilling ore and twenty to thirty feet of concentrating ore which shows an assay value of about 15 per ton The Carrlsa company will put Up chlorlna LIon works In the near future to handle this great body of base ores A new I shatthouso and hoistingworks capable capa-ble of handling ores and sinking to 1000 feet will bo erected at once The old prospecting shaft In which the development devel-opment work is now being clone is to I be abandoned and a new perpendicular one sunk This company Is now convinced I con-vinced that they have a mine that justifies jus-tifies the expenditure of all the needed capital to pUt their property in shape to mine on the most approved and latest methods But 1ew mines in the world show the quantity and quality of ore seen at this mine What is true of the Carrlsa may In the near future be true of the Franklin the Duncan the Doc I Barr the Mary Ellen the Jim Dyer the Garfield the Caribou the Miners Delight De-light and numerous other oldtime producers pro-ducers which were abandoned when tho first pinch was encountered The Mary Ellen company have their I new mill almost ready to start D T Thompson of Lincoln Neb who has bonded and leased the Garfield will equip the mine with a dry concentratIng I concentrat-ing process which is said to handle the ores of that mine In a very satisfactory way whon tried in a small way and should the process prove a success In a practical way a large custom mill will bo built at Atlantic < City A custom mill Is a thing greatly needed here as there is not a custom mill in any of the mining camps of the I South Pass country A custom mill would do more toward causing the mines to be developed than any other thing A i man by the name of Can has Bonded and leased the Burr claim at Lewiston Work was begun but was soon after sloped on account of flnan clal difficulties We are told that the stoppage of work will l be for a short lime
