ALICE
ARM
District
Mining
Engineer
Very
Enthusiastic
Over
Sliver
Camp
and
Its
Prospects
In
view
of
the
somewhat
pessimistic
feeling
on
the
.-t
of
the
people
of
Alice
Arm
in
.card
to
the
prospects
there,
an
overview
was
sought
with
Dr.
J.
-T.
Mandy.
resident
mining
engineer,
as
to
the
possible
future
of
that
camp.
Dr.
Mandy
was
enthusiastic.
He
declared
that
when
sliver
came
bacjc
to
a
reasonable
commercial
price,
Alice
Arm
would
be
one
of
the
first
camps
to
feel
the
effect.
There
were
a
number
of
good
properties
there
which
were
likely
to
be
producing.
"You
can
quote
me
In
regard
to
my
opinion
of
Alice
Arm,"
declared
the
Doctor.
"It
undoubtedly
has
a
great
future.
I
know
a
number
of
engln-eers
that
are
of
the
same
opinion
as
myself
In
regard
to
the
camp.
The
hills
there
are
rich
In
mineral
and
there
should
be
several
shipping
mines
there
soon.
Asked
In
regard
to
the
Dolly
Var-den,
Dr.
Mandy
said
It
was
still
controlled
by
the
Wlngfield
Interests
of
Nevada
and
he
expected
to
see
action
taken
on
it
before
long.
It
was
still
a
valuable
property,
he
considered.
