Excerpt from Digging Gold Among the Rockies, or Exciting Adventures of Wild Camp Life in Leadville, Black Hills and the Gunnison Country: Giving a Graphic History of the Various Discoveries of Gold and Silver in the United States, the Development and Extent of Our Mining Industries, Also Specially Describing the Wonderful Discoveries of Late Made and Making About Leadville Rock, which formerly baf ed the skill of mill men to work at a profit, is now yielding large returns to the producer. The question of transportation, which to the far-off Terri tories of Montana, Idaho, New Mexico and Arizona was such a detriment to their prosperity, seems now about to be solved. The Utah and Northern Railroad has been pushed from Og den up into Idaho and Montana. The Southern Pacific from San Francisco, through Arizona to Tucson and now that the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe has reached the capital of New Mexico, it would seem that we are indeed upon the eve of a wonderfully prosperous mining season. Gold and Silver, and their discovery and production, are subjects which interest everybody. And, although there are many valuable works on this subject, Of a scientific nature, and descriptive of quartz mining, yet there are comparatively few of them which are interesting to the general reader, and there is still a vast amount of ignorance in regard to the mode and manner of producing the precious metals.
