fvT '
 Enron CITIZEN. Everything in
 and s-ound q .ohe is moving along
 os p.nal Work is being viz
 orousIy prosecuted on all our best
 prnper,ies. The Nugget and Mex
 icap mill are still keeping up
 their regular shipments of bullion, snd ibe near completion or the Town send and Golden Eagle mill will add greatly to the value of our shipment in the future
 The Emmcline mine IS now shipping 15 tons Of ore per day, that will aver age s35O per ton, and the Nugget and Mack Nor. is are In measure like the little mare "Maud s." pever fail when called on; so that everything Is still booming.
 h older to thoroughly appreciate visit to the Pioneer South mine, the floating point shouid be from Globe, and then having the owner. T J Newland. for q guide, you would find the trip over the Pinal mountains very pleasant. The Pioneer South IS located on 1he south side O. the mountains, IS miles souih of Globe, which would brlng it about eight miles east Of Mip- eral Creek. An item very much in its favor is that il lie- m the main culch l that le .ds out of this side of the noun tains, which would gve il the benefit Of almost the enure drainage cf ihe ! range. This al once satisfies anyone 1 that the water supply is sufficient f"r all mining and milling purposes, and 1 the location i- such that 1t is included l in the 1900 hv 6 0 feet
 A glance al the pine timber on the l mountain side and the smaller trees below he pines, which can be used | ss fuel, places rhe Pioneer South, m my estimalion, as being the best lncat ed and most accessible property that i I have ever visited in this Territory. as the wagon road from Florence to 1 Globe lies but three miles south. The part Of the claim lies on the west side or this gu!ch. and the vein has been opened hy five shafts, rang Ing from 9 to 80 feetin depth, an they expose a continuous ore body GOO feet in length. The width of this ore body (which is of exceedingly high grade) averages 20 inches, and the mineral in the croppings shows width of about 20 feet. The width of the entire vein is difficult to determine. The croppins gre exposed over 200 feet in width, and i am confident that the vein at The depth of 500 feet will show a width of not less than 800. The ven Is continuous and has been traced and located for several miles, and this b. cation being the only one showing this ligh-grade mineral is very convinc- ng proof that here is the main chim ley or ore chute of this immense Iein. This development is on the north. asst end, and as they work southwest he one improves in quantity and ualiiy, showing the main body to lie Q or about the center of the claim. he formation here is blue granite with belts of slate. and be polar trend of these slate belts northeast and southwest, whi,h laoes them parallel with the vein. l have had accession since my rrival in this Territory to exam 1e all the principal mines ia this 0rtion of ihe Territory, and pro ounce the Pioneer S,uth to be the 'rgest and best showing prospect for . immense big mine of any that l ave visited, and after taking into con iteration iis location, the abundance water, timber, wood, and its close 10 the main thoroughfare. am confident that it is destined in le near future in rank as high m the 'timation of others as il does now in ine.
 There are various other locations in is immediate vicinity, but none Aving the amount Of development at this one has; silll, several have 'lendId showing for he amount of ork what has been done on them.
