The shrinkage of the world has sud-
denly brought the nations face to face
in the old colonies and on the high
seas. The old world is beginning to
realize that perhaps there may no
longer be enough to go round, that
somebody is going to get left, and that
somebody is not going to be the new
world. The. conviction is coming home
more slowly to the Frenchmen than
to the Belgians, but they are learning
1t all the same.
The result is an immediate increase
OF the Difference paid to the United
States by the French. Nothing sue
ceeds like success; and the difference
IL the attitude of the French to the
is more marvellous than edifying
F'renchmen OF all classes who twelve
months ago sneered at the dollar
hunting Yankee" as their forefathers
scoffed at the nation of shopkeeDers'
across the channel, are running over
each other in a helter-slSelter race,
vieing with each other as to which can
first fall on Uncle Sans neck and en-
brace him. The way the Fourth of
July was celebrated in Paris last year,
as compared with its predecessors,
was an object lesson in the worship of
the rising sun. If by any possibility
any space could be discovered any way
in the exposition of 1900, it was, of
course, to be made over to the sister
republic, rather than to the German
of to the Briton. Was not the COM

she opened up to an SIS value. When
he began operations on the Queen, he
found himself in the midst of what APP
peared a barren waste; he instructed
the men to go ahead and follow the
vein, and on the third day one of the
miners, r. J. Kenyon, struck the ore.
Mr.. Epler was brought to Utah from
Red Cliff, Colo, to open the East Col
den Gate mine, which he did to the
queens taste, when he was sent to the
Sioux-Utah to pull that property out
of the hole.
Speaking of the Ibapah, Mr.. Epler
says that the Queen of Sheba mill is
being rebuilt as rapidly as the ma
chinery can be hauled out via Stockton.
Then there is the Jumbo property
about a mile southwest of the old Queen
mill; it is owned by Ellerbeck G. Ed
wards and is u first-class mine, next
in value to the Queen, if not equally as
good. One of the most complete mills
in the world is also being erected on
the Jumbo.

A Good Suggestion.

In view of the passage of the new
mining law which restores the original
records to the several mining districts
of the state. and requires a system Of
dual records, one in the district and
one in the county seat; it will become
necessary, or at least advisable, says
the Provo Democrat, to reorganize
many of the old districts and to elect
new mining recorders where that
duty has been neglected for the
past two years. When the miners
meetings are held for this purpose, We
believe that there is one matter
which should receive attention. and
which has heretofore been overlooked
in every district in the state. We are
advised by recorders and others that
considerable confusion is created in the
records from the fact that two or more
locations in the same district bear the
same name. II can easily be seen how
confusion would result, and it is easily
liable to cause much trouble over
titles in case of transfers. This matter
can, however, be easily remedied, and
we would recommend to this end that
when the miners meetings are held in
each district that a rule be ADOPTED in
the local laws prohibiting the giving of
d name to any location, when that
name already appears on the records
of the district as of prior location.
This is a matter which cannot we'll be
passed upon by the state legislature,
but it can easily be settled by the min
ers OF each district We believe it win
work for good, and that it should be
tried by the miners and prospectors.

The RAYMOND AN Right.

]. C. Sullivan, an officer Of the Ray
mond Mining company, was a Salt
Lake visitor Monday, says the Eureka
Republican. The opinion of mining men
familiar with adjoining properties, that
is TO say, the BIB. C. and keystone, in
their underground workings, is that the
Raymond is all right. And this kind of
statement coming from such miners
as the Republican has in mind is
enough to cause anyone of sufficient
comprehension to catch on to situa-
ton, to keep his eye on Raymond
stock. Pat Donnelly, superintendent Of
the Grand Central, is also an officer In
the Raymond, and in the hands of,
these men the public may rest assured
that ore viii not be taken from produc-
ing mines and exhibited as the product
of their property. The shaft is now
down 100 feet, and another 200-foot con-
tract is under way.
The Black Warrior Mining company
has its hoist up, and the shaft is down
200 feet. They are now sinking to the
800 level, from which cross cutting will
commence, to strike well-defined
ledge on the north of the shaft. from
which pay ore is expected to be en-
countered. The indications shown in
the ground is governing the manage
ment in pursuing this work The Black
Warrior, as is well known, joins the
Keystone on the northwest.

A Marrow Escape.


James Broadwater was hired by
James Hughes to work on the Charlie
Ross group. On the West Dip, and
went down the winze in the tunnel to
examine the workings. When coming
out the top ladder broke away, going
to the bottom, a distance of eighty
seven feet, and but for his presence of
mind and quick action he probably
would have gone with it. He threw
out his arms and knees in such a man
ner as to hold himself, and called for
help. The parties with him Immediately
rushed to their wagon, a distance of
some 200 feet, in which, luckily, there
was rope, with which they succeeded
in getting back in time to save their
comrade, who could not have held on
but a few minutes longer. He was
ringing wet with perspiration when
taken out and looked with horror into
the hole from which he escaped SO mir
aculously.

ANA In Arizona.
The Panguitch Progress. in making
mention of an important discovery of
coDper by Utah people, says:
There has been a splendid discovery
in the way of copper and silver mine
that exceeds anything yet known In
this pa,t of the country.
The mine is located in Arizona with
in twelve miles of the Colorado river,
and about fifty miles south of the Buck
skin mountain mines that have recent
~ attracted SO much attention.
Recently the owners of the new Cop
per Mountain mine shipped 200 pounds
of the ore to Denver TO be assayed. The
returns just received are given as 90
per cent of copper and s1S in silver,
with small quantity of gold.
This rock was from the surface The
owners. have since run in a tunnel
thirty feet, and the rock proves much
richer and better. A magnificent speci-
men of the ore was left at the Progress
office by q. w. Johnson. one of the
owners.
This piece of ore will go at least so
per cent of pure copper, so we are in
formed by William Leuman, an assayer
to whom it was shown recently.
The vein is not large on the surface,
richer as it descends. On the surface
on one side of the CANYON it is from
one to five feet wide, and on the other
side from one to six feet.
This mine is located in what is
called the Trumble mountain. 1t has
firewood and small timber near at
hand with timber suitable for mining
within seven miles.
There is a good spring of water
within seven miles from the mine, and
a very large one within ten miles. The
vein runs north and south, or. nearly
so, with numerous smaller veins run
ming into it from each side.
This new mine on Trumble Mountain
is seventy-fiVe miles from kanab,
eighty miles from st. George, and 100
miles from Cedar City, by way of To-
cuerville.
G. W. johnson, one of the firm of
White & Johnson of Tropic passed
through Panguitch Friday, ana brought
specimens of ore. The one left with
us is very heavy for its size, and shows
native copper in places.
Hon. w. F. Knox of Beaver, who was
here, was struck by its richness, and
asked Mr.. Johnson if he was willing to
bond it or Dut a price Oh it.
Mr.. Johnson declined. as he is on his
way north. He will go to Salt Lake
City in few days, where he will give
it further examination, and may sell
the mine. Mr.. Johnson is a third owner,
while john Swapp and Heber Marshall
are also interested in the mine and
other claims in that vicinity
