Fortunately for Utah, these schools are together.

For its various schools the University now has an estate of 92 acres, situated below Fort Douglas, to the east of the city, affording a college site which is declared by visitors to be among the four best in the world. ' Since the University is adjacent to Salt Lake City, there are many opportunities for young men and women to help themselves through college by earning money. Besides there are many things of educational importance to be seen and heard outside of the school room. To live for awhile in the largest city of the state is an education in itself. Within one or two hours ride from the University are the largest smelters and mines of the state. A ride on the street cars will take one to a number of the great smelters. In fact, the location is ideal for a University. The students in science and literature have opportunities to use the fine city library as well as that of the University; to hear many of the great men and women that pass through the state speak, sing, op play musical instruments, and also to see many of the scientific facts learned in school put in practical operation. The student has many advansmelters and mines in visiting tages close by and to examine machinery of all kinds out of use and in use. The Normal student has many opportunities in the city he could not have in a small town in visiting the largest and finest school buildings of the state and to become acquainted with the very successful school system of Salt Lake The Utah, causes school Alta.

It is so constructed that at any time its capacity can be increased with slight expense, there being power enough generated to supply all that ever will be reasonably required in future operations. In addition to this there has recently been put in commission an aerial tramway several miles in length, which conveys the ore from the mine to the mill. The tram is of the most modern type and was erected at a great expense. So complete was its construction that it withstood one of the worst winters encountered in years with but slight damage, and is today discharging its burden of ore with regularity at the mill. The mine has also many buildings, which for convenience and comfort are equal to any in the Btate. When it is stated that the Continental Alta has accomplished all this and is not only free from debt, but is constantly paying dividends to its fortunate stockholders, something of its value can be understood. Mr. Crowther has recently been installing a battery of electric drills, and from now on development work and the Flagstaff, the Emma and the Rustlers was pouring forth their me-wibe pushed with a will. He has also under consideration the build n ss ll ing of a railroad to the camp. Thus the Continental Alta may be safely said to be a great mine great not only in its mountains of ore, but also in its management, which for the past five years has been a model of effectiveness and intelligence.

The exact tonnage or gross value of the ores extracted from the mine is not available at the present time, but ores which netted its then owners over $400,000, found a market at the local and foreign smelters. The present management is at present bending its energies to attain depth and uncover the greater values in ores which are known to lie beneath any point reached by the miners e of a day.

One of the great mines of the Alta mining district is beyond question the City Rocks, the property of the com pany bearing the same name. The mine is situated near that of the Continental Alta, and comprises a group of patented claims, all of which are contiguous to the developed portion of the property. It is one of the oldest developed mines of the new era of Alta mining, having been worked continuously for quite a score of years. A tunnel has been run into the mountain from which drifts, upraises and winzes have been driven until the workings in extent are only second to those of the Colombus Con. This work, however, has not been in vain. Ore bodies of great extent have been uncovered, and these are being added to constantly. There is now exposed in the mine many tons of shipping ore and an immense tonnage of milling ore is also in sight.

That the Continental Alta is a bonanza of no mean dimensions is al: ready a fact, but what it will be in the future is in every way brighter than its history up to the present time has shown. Situated as it Is so high up on the mountain, and its ore bodies being so strong and continuous from the surface to the lowest level yet attained, it cannot be questioned for a moment but that they go to the depths. The ore, of course, for a long time will be mostly carbonate, but when water level has been reached they will beyond question change to sulphide with an average increase in value. is constantly being Development pushed and new ore chutes are constantly being opened.
