To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Idaho Gold-Field. We now come to the west slope of the Rocky Mountains, and commence with Idaho. The Governor of this Territory, in his re- port (1885) to the Secretary of the Interior, states that there are within it 200 mines paying dividends. The placer-mines on the Shoshonee (vulgarly, Snake) River, are rich and large in extent, but not half their richness has been told or published to the world.
Idaho Gold-Field. 171 The gold is found in the gold bars or black sands of the river. It is qui
...te difficult to separate the gold from these sands by washing, though many parties make the operations pay largely. These placer-mines only indicate what will no doubt be in time the gold- bearing quartz in the mountain ledges, the original sources of these particles of gold thus freed from the disintegrated rock. The presumption is, that Idaho will yet become a great mining State, when the industry is more fully introduced. The mineral resources of the Territory constitute one of its great- est interests, and, as far as the gold and silver lodes have been worked, the mining industries are in a very prosperous condition.
