"Th mining possibilities of Utah hav not been scratched," said Mr. Butler. "Throughout th entlr atato, half of whloh la available ground for th pick of th prospector, there ar Park City, Tlntlo, Bingham, Alta and Beaver. These dis trict, and other, ar of world wide fame. But where ther ar these few It la as suredly true that ther will b hundreds of other. New camp and new districts will spring Into being Ilk magic so soon as th attention of cspltal, labor and In dustry I directed toward thl atat.
