Sufficient ore has been blocked out to keep the mill In continuous operation In indefinitely and there la i no apparent appar-ent reason why the Comslock should not become a dividend from payer the very C day on which the wheels begin to turn With an eye to the future the owners S have dealfmed a mill PO large that additional machinery can be accommodated S to double Its fin output and that this will bo done within a very few months Is no near certain ay an thing can be connected with mining The machinery C 3 IH I all of the bet and latest design The two l boilers are rated at S3 horsepower i

exceedingly rich several S being heavier than a man could lift and solid masses of ore with no extraneous gungue matter whatever Ore of this character of course would be sent direct to Salt Lake and
