COLFAX COUNTY MINES.
Notable strike Near EIizabethtOwn-
Purchases Of fMachinery-Grea Ac-
tivity in Badly District.

An important strike was recently made
in the Hidden Treasure property on Will
low creek in the Elizabethtown mining dis
trict of Colfax county, New Mexico. A
three-foot vein of ore giving values OF
$50 to $400 being opened in the drift
from the 150,foot level. The company
recently placed hosting machinery on
the working shaft and now proposec to
add a milling plant.
j. Leahy, vice president of the Gold
Coin Consolidated company, has gone to
Denver to purchase additional machinery
for their new mill. 1t is proposed to add
ohlorinetion plant to the Huntington.
The Bady district is furnishing evil
dence of unparalleled activity. This sec.
tion has been self sustaining since 1863,
producing from $4,000 to $4,000 per an
nam from leases. The cost of mining,
transportation and treating the ores ag-
gregates $27 per ton and the entire prod
uct of the camp is shipped to Pueblo
and Denver. Recently various operators
have made a number of tests and now
propose to erect milling and chlorina-
tion plants and treat the product at
home, shipping concentrates only. A
stamp mill will be erected on the creek
below the Mountain Queen dump and the
tailings will be treated by chlorinatlon.
Five acres of land have been purchased
from the Maxwell Land Grant com pany
for this purpose and the Mountain Queen
tunnel will furnish sufficient volume of
water for the enterprise. Tha necessary
capital has been subscribed to guarantee
successful termination of the project.
The wage system of the camp, which
has previously been So for eight hours,
is the cause of much dissatisfaction
among the mine operators and An attempt
will be made to raise the hours or lower
the wages. In event of failure, the leas-
ing system will be adopted by the pro-
ducing properties.
