Show To Ship Grand Qulch Ore South. Thomas W. Jennings returned from Kingman, Arizona, Thursday morning and left on the stage for Salt Lake that evening. Mr. Jennings went south ffr.m tVio fii.'inrl flnleVi mint, t.tt qpp if the ores from the mine could not be shipped more economically south. He believes a good road can be made from the mine down Pigeon wash toPearce's Ferry and thence south to Hackberry. Mr. Jennings stated to our reporter that he intended putting the matter before the directors, and that he favored favor-ed the new road. "It will" said he "be an expensive job, but we will have to build a road eventually and we may as well do it at once. We can save $15. in railway freightage on every ton of ore we ship south, and we have about 1000 tons of 20 per cent ore on the dump now which will not pay us to ship north, and this quantity of low-grade ore is constantly increasing." Mr. Jennings has made a trip of 750 miles by buck-board buck-board since leaving here, and lost himself him-self twice on the road. He reports frost every night at Wolfhole 24 miles south of here, and remarked on the wonderful change of climate in coming that short distance. |
