which is now tho lossee of the hold
ings. Hy a recont decision of tho Fed
eral courts it has been established
that Alkali lako Is a minora! de
posit and not a navlgablo lako. As
n result of this d clslou Btirvovors
nro oxpectod early to ontor the Hold
to mnko permanent surveys of tho
property.
When tho Alkali hako deposit was
first discovered It was thought by
Mr. Young and his associates thnt
the deposit was more valuable for
Its possible borax possibilities than
,ls 99 per com pure, and this Is said
to be the most romarkahlo percen
tago obtainable nnywhere In the
world. That the product will find a
ready irnrket Is assured. Soda ash
la used principally In the manufacture
of soap, papor ..r.d Is an Important
factor lu the refinement or roan' I
facture of products where soda 1
needed.
ProJoU Has Povslbllltlo-,.
"The deposit hag many possibili
ties," said Mr Young while lu llend
yesterday "We have watted a lone
time to see this development and
now there Is no doubt ns to Its real
(ration. The construction of the
Straborn railroad will be a big

exists as to Its expansion just as
