The D. & M. Is building a railroad .

A great many people think that I they ; settle In this isolated part of the country they wilt have no markets for their farm vroluce , but that Is a mistake 'Vo have a ' much bettor market , here for what we raise than the farmers do who live In the states - . east or west of us , which ere wholly agricultural - tural and wo always wi have such a market , because we have abundance of mines , where goO wages ore paid ; In fact , our mining population exceeds our agricultural p pulaton , t and aways vihl. Our country Is largely covert with mountainous and grazing lands and so little good tillable lands that the de- , mand will always exceed the supply. And wo Iecelve just as much mora for our produce at home as tt costs t ship It from the states lying east and west or us.

J. A. PARKER SUPERB FEAT IN ENGINEEItINO. ) Tim ,000 InhabItants or Park City. Utah , ore still joyful to a man over the completion not long ago or the great drain tunnel or the Ontario mine , an achievement that has cost the company nearly a million ol dollars , writes a correspondent or the San Francisco Chronicle. This tunnel , hardly less famous than the colossal mine from which I takes u.s name bores into the heart of the mountaIn - taIn to I depth of 1.450 feet , and Is eight fet high , five and a halt feet wide at tie bottom top and four and a half feet wide at the The Ontario tunnel drains not only the Ontario and Da1y mines but ale does much . tl lessen the few of water In the nearest group of tnine , all of which are Included In the exhaustless silver belt that lies thirty miles cast of Salt Lake City. In the Wasatch mountains. The enormous inflow of water In these extenslvo silver workings has been a growing problem to the miner since the nrst ore was taken out or the Ontario nearly a quarter of a century ago To go down a 1OO.foot shaft to explore the wet mysteries ol the Ontario tunnel Is an experience not to be neglected should opportunity offer. One steps cautiously on the cage and the foreman rings a bell connected - nectell with the hoIsting engIne. On the Instant we are plunged Into the black pit of the shaft with no Jar and hardlY an oscla- ton of the flat . tarry cable. Every hundred feet tht light of a "station" flashes Into view only to be followed by several more y1 seconds of pitchy darkness. Tile fresh gusts of all from these way tunnels flare the candle belll by the foreman. So excellent Indeed I tile ventilation or the vast honey- comb of tunnels , shafts and stapes that malt UI the Ontario mIne that no Inconven- Ience Is elt In breathing , only a delightful lightening oC welgbt-a sense that sOle burden - den or dealt hall been recklessly discarded , In the sunshine ahove. While the excavating Dr the tnnnel was stilt In progress It was estimated that one day out of every three , was lost on account or the In-rush of water. I fnaly became necessary to run two I parallel tunnels to relieve the pressure on the main tunnel. At one time the paUent gang ' or miners forced theIr way through 1,200 ' feet of break or dislocation of country where r the earth was so crushed that It was almost like coarse san.l. These dlncultes made the work slow and dangerous , and the sides and roof hud to be thoroughly timbered and closely "lagged" to prevent the ground from running. In 189 It measurell one mile from its mouth helow the enormous mill In the gulch and now at its completion It Is more than three times that length TO SUPPLANT WhEAT Throughout this portion of the James river Valley there Is evidently an intention among Iho farmera to decrease the wheat acreage considerably , aiiil to increase the acreage eOWI to barley , fax , cats , millet and Iota- - toes , nil of which palll much better than wheat lust year , says a Jamestown , N.

This on Us face looks Innocent enough , says the Herald at that city , but a a ' mater of fact the location II prbably the beginning of a prety cntet between the Sal Lake locaters and a party ot Ogden people who han ale made location of the Island ] , but 1 under the mineral entry atatutes Although " .orthle8 from an agricultural point of view , the Island I. a nry valuable piece of property , Cor upon 1 are deposits of guano , the great fertilizing agent , worth In the neighborhood ol $2,000,000 , should the tests aleut to be made ol the material give the anticipated returs , An investigation of the guano deposits has demonstrated the on the island by experts fact that there are from sIx to twelve feet entire tract or the fertilizer covering the entre and It Is estimated that there will be fully 100,000 tons of the commercial guano In the dposlts. In Ibladlpha the material I I worth $60 vcr ton , and on board cars at Hvraeusl It would bo cheap at $11 Ier ton sit tfc-s show that something like $20,000.- 000 worth of the guano was imported Into this country during very recent years. 110 vCl ! the Gunnison Island deposits will give returns of 15 per cent ammonia , a Phia- delphia house wiil make advances for the en- wi tire tonnage. Tests are yet to be made , ant until the returs are received I will never be known whether or not the peculiar , salt Impregnated atmosphere surrounding the island - and has hattho effect of destroying the values - ues of the deposIts. At any rate , the Salt Lake people arc not losing any sleep on ac- count of the claims made by the Ogden locators caters , for the simple reaon that they are or the opinion that they have captured the prize and have It well In hand , and the gen- oral opinion Is that the bird droppings can- not be located as mineraI. DON'T GO TO AI.ASKA. While men continue to crowd the steamers to Alaska , attracted by the low rates pro- ducerl by tlQ rata war , says the Seattle Post- Intelligencer , warnings continue to come from experienced men In that country against too great a rush or immigration. The latest of these Is contaIned In I latter from llchard Wioughby of Junea\ to his old partner , Richard Cameron , In tills city , dated February - ruary 15 , and sums up the sItuation 11 the following [ words olowlng "I am sorry to hear of such a large Imml- grlton comtng to Alaska In the spring , for I will make times harll for some or them , for there are lots of Idle 1en here now , unless the ) ' come prepare to get along for a while wihout having to go to work . I don't think that over 1.000 men will get employment In this district this summer , and there are over I that number here now. Several parties who ! came up on the last boat have returned , and ' others would go I they were able. Men who are coming to Alaska and depending au get- ting work here shouhl not come before the 1st of - .lay. Capital Is what Is needed here at present for there Is no doubt as to the rlchea or this country In quartz. but It takes experienced and moneyed men to start the bal rolling. There Is a time tn the near future when there will b. thousands or men employed here , but It wi not be this sum- mer I am afraid ; this summer Is too early . for [ laboring .men. " RUSTLERS CAUSING TROUDLE From reports receIved from Nephl lively times may be expected In the vicinity or the henry mountains very shortly , says tile Salt Lake Herald. For some days emaIl bands of men from Arizona , New MexIco , and as far south as Texas , have been engaged In riding over the range stealing cattle , horses and mules and wnnlnnlv kllnl fine beef cattle. Fifty head of - ' horses n and ; mules are reported to have been taken from one range In a single night re- cently. The thIeves apparently work tn relays , the first driving the stok to the southern Utah lne , where they arc taken by another crowd and hurried on. Inasmuch as all the stock In southern Utah ts In prime conditon , the country Is a very desirable one for cattle steaUng. A species of wanton slaughter Is being indulged - dulgell In which Is reprehensIble In the x- treme. Fine stock Is shot down , and after the loin and other fancy pieces are taken the carcass Is left . to rot. I Is sid that dozens of. ' head have been found which have been so treated. George C. Whltmorl of Nelhl Is Interested In ranches In that region , and together with other citizens of that vicinity and Mona , Is organizing an armed band to go down and drive the desperadoes out Serious trouble may result , as the men from . the south are all ball charncters and may be on the soot. Tile Utah people are equally determined and will resist any encroachments - croachments by the southern thieves. , , The raIds are made periodically . and this Is bnt a repetition of. what has occurred sev- eral times before. This time . however , vlg. orous measures will be adopted. BONANZA IN BLACK SANDS Work at the black sand mines near Ran- dolpJl , Ore. , Is now progressing In n very satisfactory manner says the Coast MaiL After a prlon/ell series 'of expelrments and numerous modifications , the . apparatus Is working with ever promise of success and fifty pounds of the amalgam was cleaned up. The parties deelne to state the results , but It Is gathered from good authority that the 11- , suit It three times greater than the highest ! guess. Before the work commenced tree of the men engged made a guess as to what the amalgam would produce , and the result was about five times greater than the lowest guess , and three times greater than the highest - est calculation . The results are better than the most sanguine calculations , and It Is i be- leved by good judges that a process has at last been discovered which will take out all the gold In the samI Only one machine Is partly constructed , and I Is now running out about three tolls or concentrates per day. Several more machines are In process of con- Rtlultlnn. and wil be nut to work ust as soon - as they - can - - be completed . The : parties I have been at work experimenting since last I July and have just completed the design , wblch , It Is believed , will fill the require- ments. There Is said to ba much more of the fine and Invisible gold In the sand than was supposed , and the machine Is said to save all metallic substances In the sand A sugar : sack of the concentrate abut hal filled . weIghs In the neighborhood of 250 pounds. The process saves all the metal In the are , which consists ot platinum , Iran , etc. The owners are much elated aver the prospects , and are sanguine that there are millions In the pro- ject of black sand mining. REGION OF TUNNELS. The numerous tunnel enterprises on loot In this clmn are a surrlse to every visitor. says an : Ida1o . Springs special to the Denver News. They are not nero holes In the ground and run a few hundred feet to tap some vein. but Instead are gigantic enterprises with millions of dollars back of theni The schemes were not visionary as the promoters had big Inducements - ducements to offer the moneyed men to fur- Ilsh funds for reaching the many actual pro- ducing mlnC Each one of the tunnel undertakings tap a different part or the mining region , so there Is no rivalry , an.l the companies are anxious to see everyone of the propositions carried oul.Idaho , Idaho Springs has a vast area to draw from In any direction and find goo producing minos. There Is surely great activity shown on n'r hand , and the mineral output will greatly increase over that of last year for many reasons Among them Is the prop0111 ( reduction of freight rates on ore which Mr. Trumbul , the receiver of the Gulf rod , will probably Put Into effect within the next month. Another great boon to the camp Is In the Denver , Lakewood and Golden railroad . which undoubtedly will be built within the year Sam Newhouse is now In England and has raised enough money to extend the road to Idaho Springs. He Is doing good work for the camp , and these Interested with him In the various undertakings realize the great value to be obtained The Newhouse tunnel Is a brilliant plan to tap many big mines st a. great depth , furnishing them an outlet for are , a weil l a drainage for water The tunnel Is , twelve feet high anti the same In width , double track , with plenty of draInage between - tween and beneath the tracks , bas a grade of five Inches In each 10 feet [ , and will be In a perfect air line the entire distance of four miles. Nearly 1,000 known veins will be cut 10 or which are producing mines. Ono or the best pro erties to b cut Is the Gunnel , which has produced 3000000. The Eureka , just ' north of the Gunnel , will b reached , and as ! I. Newbouse baa secured this property , It I probable that Il will be the Olpln county terminus a the easter end of the mine lies wihin \ the welter corporate limits of Central City . Several unknown veins have already been cut , and It Is safe to presume Ulat by the middle of the year sblpment ot ore through the tunnel wU be under way , The company bu its .b. ; % _ _ " ' ' . , , o . , . . . , . . _ plans t0 erecting mills at the mouth of the tunnel to trt the loW grde 41 The tunnel - ash will 1 lighted and the ears . operated by QI trlc1y , MAIN IOWA TUNNEL 'l The , owners ol the Iowa mine , San Juan cont1 , are t b congratulated upon their new and great discoveries. This property , says the Slverton Standard has undergone a vast amount of development work the past . year , . anti the owners will reap n big reward , The main tunnel ts now completed the entire length or the claim 100 [ eet , showing geM ore throughout. In drifting the 1,500 feet they have crossed three other veins that run high In goh On one or these they have drifted i t'et , which has mote than paid Its : way. The last discovery Is perhaps the most ' important yet 13110 As they were nearing the end lines they encountered n vein crossing the Iowa at an angle ol about 41 deees , and have drifted on the same about thirty feel , showing twenty-tour inches of high grade gold are. This property wilt bo one of the promi- nent features of the camp , employing over 101 per. men , and wi rank foremost as a heavy ship WILD [ CAT OOLD FIELDS. Tim new mlnll camn In the Wlll Cat dls- trlclls"crellng ifltlchl excitement In this city , says a Canon City special to the Denver sas . Prospectors are leaving at all times of the day for the new Edor lo. This morn- Ing a party or surveyors left here en route for the gold fields. Before departing they stated that they Intended to make surveys for a towusle and at once place lots on sale. Two stage lines rnl regularly and are doing an excellent business Up to time present time thc many resources have not been very ' fully de\'eloled. A large piece of are Is exhibited - hibited In this city which Is claimed to hav been taken from a proslect In the new dls.- trlct. Reliable anti experienced mining men who have returned from the place , state they think It Is an extension of the Cripple Creek gold lead so closely docs the character of thei ore resemble that extracted from \ the mines at that place. The fInal result of the camp cannot be conjectured , but at this writing there I much enthusiasm among time citizens of thl ! city and vicinity. GOLD AT R4'tWLtNS. A certain Union Paclfo clerk at Rawlins has recently been sitting up at all hours until It was noticed that In spite of his late hours he was thirty days behind In his work , upon discovery of which hI was dtscharged. lie found employment then In Cheyenne , says tIle Lramie Boomerang , and after ho bad worked there for a short time It was noticed that he was receiving a good many Western Union dispatches , and while this was strange they did not think much about It. One day ho finally naked one of his superiors to go to the bank wih him to identify him so that he could get tile money on a draft for $600 or , , $700. A short time afterward he had to be identified again to receive $1,700 on a draft. I When tile truth recentlY bcame Imowu I turned out ; that this money all came front the study of the young man at nights at Rawlins - lns over the red oxide or Iron deposits or what Is known as the Hawlns paInt. lie had succeeded In getting tile Denver smelters to handle the materIal and was making $2 per ton from it. When the company officials asked him whether he knew that he was mining on company - pany property ho toll them It did not malt any difference , as the law allowed him to mine an'where. I Is now understood that the Denver smelters may contract with the gentleman for 50,000 tons I Is the finest fluxing material In the world. The gentleman has forme a company at Rawlns a11 : Is , secretary at a good salary. The gold In It Is even more valuable and some surmise that the smelters are aldng the purchase for the purpose of securing the gold. SIx assays hlv ! ben made of It and It runs from a trace to $10 per ton. DOUGLAS OIL FIELDS. There having been more or less talk about the discovery of oil by H L. Drenning while boring his irrigating tunnel , and a few sam- pies havIng been brought Into Douglas , our curiosity was aroused , and In company with another citizen of the county seat we made a trip to Drenning's ranch , says tie Central Wyoming News. On arriving at the ranch Mr. Drenning kindly escorted UI over to tie tunnel , and lighting a couple or candles we proceeded to explore its. gloomy depths. I Is a fine piece of work and a man of average height can walk upright within. For' about 500 feet the tunnel went through gumbo and other soil , and then we experienced an overpowering - powering smell of oil , and came upon the first stratum of au sandrock. The rock pitches northward and down at a steep slope and bas the appearance of coarse brown sugar. 'VI let the fame or the candle touch the rock In various places and the oil soon commenced - menced to boil out. The tunnel has been bored through forty to fly feet of this oil sand , and It seems to ge richer In oil a they go In , the present end of the tnnnel being still sold oil rock. Each stratum of oil saud seems to be about five feet thick and then comes a thin layer of white c ment , soft to the touch , between It and the next stratum. Mr. Drenning showed us where oil , to the quantity of at least a pint , ran out of a pocket In the rock Immediately after the last blast was let oft. There Is no . doubt but that oil In great abundance exists I In that neIghborhood of equal value to the famous lubricating oils of Salt creek , and of far greater value In their close proximity to the railroads. The Fremont , Elkhorn & Mls- sonr Valley railroad I only about five mIles away down grade , and the Denver & Gulf Is not ever three or four times that distance. THE JACKSON'S HOLE COUl"RY. The Jackson's Hole country , situated In time northern part of Wyoming attracting considerable - siderable attentIon tn the eastern part of Utah and adjolnlng states. A gentleman wio recently returned from that section Is most entlmusiastic In his praIse says the Salt Lake Herald , claiming that during his exploratons he came across sev- oral Mormon families who had settled In the so ther hart of the valley and who had prospered amazIngly , although many miles from any neighbors or frIends. One wheat field was pointed ant which yielded last sum. mer at the rate of sbety-eght ! bushels to the acre. acre.Tho mineral prospects are said to be eX- cellent. an end and of game and f\ there Is scarce The section Is Isolated , and that Ii one of the reasons why Is has not before attracted the attention of those people who are casting about for a new location. It Is said to offer especial inducements t young men Cole. . ratio and Wyoming people who palll the sec- ton a visit last 'fall are all loud In Its praise. CATTLE RAISING IN IDAHO. John McOlnchey , who has been a resi- dent of Payete , Idaho , for ten years , said to a Salt Lake Tribune reporter recenty that when he came here there were In this , valley fully 30,00 cattle an the rouge In this locality. Ten all of these cattle were In the hands of a few persons , who hal so extended - tended a country for them to range over that the stock business was nearly all profit , especially when graBs was good and the win- ters were . not too severe , Then the setters were fer and far between The lands have since been taken up by actual seWers anti acml who fed on the land with the Inten- ton or making homes , until there Is but little of the public domain heft and this In elect has wiped out all big herds or range stock , while the lands are producing big crors of grain , roots an l other cereals whIle orchards are either baring or being set out all over the valley. : In counting up the number or cattle In Payete valley , lays time Trlbule , we find that lenr Erwin Is feeding about 2,500 heal of stock cattle ; John McGlnchey , 300 ; General Stewart , 2,00 ; James Patee , 500 , all close to l'ayete ; While Hogan Dros" , near Emmett are feeding 100 , and In the Pay- ete valey , besides those named , there are enough to bring the total up to 10,000 stock cattle , where ten years ago there were 30,000. Abut 1,000 head or beef catte were fattened and shlpJell during the fall and winter , and but few beet animals are left to market.
