The Daily Tombstone., 1886-02-22

of the Contention this property will soon be added to the list of producers. TOMBSTONE MILL AND MINING COMPANY Heads the list as an employer of labor. Its payroll includes about one hun dred and fifty men at the mines, and about thirty men at the Charleston smelters.
 On the West Side mine, and the Lucky Cuss among others, ore is daily being shipped to the Charleston, Shelter, whilst from the Toughnut and Goodenough the Girard Mill crushes about thirty tons daily, the falling of whose stamps is now an everyday sound to the dwellers of Tombstone.
 The reserves of ore in this com- pany's properties could alone keep more than one smelter going, the bulk of t containing much manganese.
 PRoMPEER COMPANY.
 This company having also passed through the grooves of litigation, is about to commence regular work. Its ledge, which crosses the Grand Gen. tral ledge near the Dipper from the Rattlesnake, is large and well defined and runs the entire length of this claim, where it has been exposed in many@places and rich ore brought to sight This mine, under new and careful management, ought to take its place among our best.
 RANDOLPH
 is another property that has 8 large reserve of low-grade ore that awaits the advent of the smelter to be turned into bullion.
 NO COUNT
 Is being regularly worked, from which some good ere is taken.
 The list of mines from which ore is daily extracted is Q long one, but the fact remains that more work is being done than most people think, and that the day-dawn for Tombstone is not far distant.
 AsiSbee.
 But few people know even the locality of this village, and fewer still realize the fact that at no distant date this-now small mountain town-will, with her copper productions, exercise no unimportant share in the supply of the worlds copper market. Last year out of q total Arizona produc- ton of 23,3G0,0O0 pounds, she stood second with 7,6G1,65 pounds, whilst Clifton heads the list with 10,680,O00 pounds, and Globe 4,604,000 pounds.
 Now that more than one property is being developed, and one or two smelters will be added to those now there, her production will in 1886 reach the mount of at least 12,000, 900 pounds.
 The copper belt or basin of Bisbee has an area of about sixteen square miles, and up to the present time only one small corner-the Copper Queen Hill-has been opened up. With this large area, the bulk being still untouched, but scattered over which are croppings of copper ore as well as other indications for copper, is it unfair to prosnosticate that there are thousands upon thousands of tons of copper ore comprised within this belt?
 The idea has long been discarded that "The Copper Queen was Bisbee, J and no man has now the temerity to assert that theory There is room here for all, and where on the face of Gods green earth does such a rare chance present itself fer the safe em- ployment of now idle capital and the further development of the copper industry? With cheap and regular supply of coke, with good transporta' ton and supplies at moderate prices Bisbee will be the paradise of capital ists and the home of thousands of of miners unearthing her untold wealth.
