Mining Notes

The completion of the Saginaw smelter,
near Tucson has given renewed impetus to
mining in that section. Many copper prop
critics have been developed In that local.
ity, the ores being purchased by the Sag
inaw company.
Rich gold discoveries have been made in
Castle Dome, Harqua Hala, Centennial.
Palomas, Potholes and other mining dis
tricts. and, although the mining outlook
in the county was never better, still most
of the silver and lead mines are idle. owing
to the low value of these metals.-Yuma
Sentinel.
Placer mining in Yavapai county Is on
the increase. and some encouraging results
are the consequence. Nuggets varying
from so cents to so in value are not uncom-
mon. Miners are reported as doing we'll
throughout that section.
The Ranchita mine Of c. ]. Couts, San
Diego county. is now said to be producing
5000 per month. which is more than the
whole camp of Julian was doing at the
same time last year.
The mill at the Minnesota mine, Spring
creek. Shasta county, will be thoroughly
overhaued, preparatory to resuming op-
erations.
A German syndicate Is said to be nego-
tating for the Black Diamond group Of
copper mines between Saltwater and Pitt
rivers, Shasta county. The ore body Is
quite wide and runs high in copper.
The Mountain Copper company. Shasta
county, is turning out about 125 tons Of
copper matte daily. each ton containing
about 100 pounds Of fine copper, worth be.
tween 10 and II cents per pound The matte
also carries about $13 silver and SIS gold
per ton.
klamath river is but few Inches higher
than the lowest mountain stage owing to
the scarcity of rain and snow since De-
cember, but the miners dare not venture to
put in wingdams and wheels until the dan.
ger of late storms Is over.
The quartz and placer miners seem to be
getting much discouraged over the contin-
ued dry weather and poor prospects Of
securing a supply of water for mining. All
the small streams are dry, with but very
little snow on the mountains to furnish wa
ter in melting, consequently there Is mot
enough for mining of any kind, nor likely
to be unless we have some heavy storms be-
fore April.

American and Canadian Mines

In a recent letter from Dawson to a
Vancouver, B. c., paper correspondent
says: mark my words that before two
years are over this country will be mar
vel and none other in the world will be
able to compete with it in gold production.
We Canadians have a land the like of
which has never been equaled and 1t is for
our government to take such measures as
to retain portion for Canadians, SO that
the wealth should enrich Canada as a
whole instead of as it is today, all the gol
going into the pockets of Americans. There
is not more than one Canadian out of twen-
ty aliens, and these Canadians have only
come in this summer" If the statement In
the last sentence is correct, as 1t appears
to be, how would the country ever have
been developed or the discoveries made II
it had not been for the Americans? The
Canadians appear to have waited for 9TH
ers to develop the region and prove its
richness. According to this correspond
ents own confession there are few Cana
dlians there and these only came in last
season. That being the case, It must have
been the American miners from Alaska
who prospected the region and first un-
earthed its treasures. The Canadians
have, however nothing to grumble al.
Their country is being opened and the gold
being taken out. There is plenty of room
for more prospectors, and now that they
have been shown the way they will have
as good a chance as the others. The fact
is that there are more Norwegians,
Swedes, Danes, etc., in the Alaska region
than there are people Of other nationali-
ties. They are hardy, strong, healthy
men, Injured to hard work and to cold, and
they prosper where others will fail The
Canadians own the lands on their side of
the boundary, but they should not be jeal-
GUS of the enterprise of the Americans in
opening and developing them.

A Fortune in Sight

Dan Kingery and A. ]. Hay, who have
been prospecting a quartz claim in the hill
above the old r. H. Campbell mine at
Quartz valley, struck exceedingly rich pay
this week. They washed a painful of
gravel and loose decomposed quartz from
the side Of the ledge and realized SIS. The
quartz shows gold in great quantity to the
naked eye, and is estimated to yield $40 900
or more to the ton. with ledge over two feet
wide as far as tested. Even If pocket,
the young men will realize a good fortune
from what is in sight.--Yuma Journal

Sinking on the Sister Claim

Messrs. Ross & Welch started in last

If the story told by Mr.. Murray is true
the Yukon region is the richest place on

ANOTHER HOLD UP.
This Time on the Portland Road From
scatbor

Eugene Foye of Scarboro had thrilling
experience one day last week on a lonely
part of the Paine road between Scarboro
and Portland. AS Mr.. Foye was driving
four horse team loaded with wood from
his farm to Portland along the Nonesuch
river, the load began to slide from the
wagon. Mr.. Foye jumped to the ground
to tighten the load with lever. AS he
did SO, two men stepped out of the woods
and one Of them asked him for q chew of
tobacco. Upon MIR. Foye's reply that he
never used the weed. the man struck him
a heavy blow on the head with his fist,
knocking him to the ground. The blow
did not render Mr.. Foye. unconscious,
and leaping to his feet he seized the lever
and struck his assailant down, whereup-
on the latter companion took to his heels
and disappeared In the forest.
MIR. Foye again turned his attention to
his original antagonist, but by this time
he too had arisen to his feet and was
making tracks to the woods. Mr.. Foye
was not inclined to pursue them SO they
got away without being identified.
