operated by Mr.. Clark have been shut
Down since July on account Ct the
scarcity of water
One of the promising prospects of
the section is the Golden Wave, owned
by James Reese and others, and
opened lid under a bond by Mr.. Cos
tello, owner of the Trilby mine. The
shaft is down $50 feet with four
f0cit vein nearly all the way down.
The ore is the same as the ore from
the Congress mine. Near the 5OO-foot
level the dyke was broken AID lost,j
but it was found again and at thu botf
tom OF the shaft the vein was fouPd
again and appeared 10 be widening
The property is situated over the mill
west of Ctngress and near the S. y. P.
& P. railroad and also near wate2
The Congress mine is undoubtedly
ore of the best properties in Arizona.
I hare are four hoists in operation and
ore is found in every shaft under them.
Enough can be taken out of M shaft
to run the mill of forty stamps. In
No. 2 shaft the 2,500-foot-end ifs nearly
reached and at the bottom Of It the
best ore the mine has yet given has
been found The company is sinl ing
continually with two diam3nd drills
It is we'll known that the Congress
Gold company never talks about what
it is doing, but il is not/so well known
that it keeps On drifting with no in
tention of stopping until ore enough is
uncovered tCfwarrant the erection OF a
greatly enlarged plant Super.ntend-
ent w. F. Stanton had nothing definite
to say as to the future of the camp,
exeept that the mill would be enlarged
if the mine warranted it. With this
assurance Arizona may conf Iently
look forward to the time when it will
have one of the g eatest gold camps in
the southwest and. perhaps, in the
world. The Tep-rt in Phoenix that
something immense had been found in
No. shaft is nearly correct, but TIE
immensely lies not so much in quality
as in quantity
Congress is ore of the b9-t regu-
lated camps and perhaps approaches
more nearly the ideal mining camp
than any camp in the territory Year
in and year out $50 men are employed
and a large percentage Of them never
leave. One cannot see the railroad
Sined up with men gcfng and coming
Nm tie camp as IS the case in other
n,s>Ss. The men sat al the company
