information of Value to Arizona Miners.

Where a person or company has or may run a tunnel for the purpose of developing a lode or lodes owned by said person or company, the money so expend- ed in said tunnel shall be taken and considered as expended on lode or lodcs, and such person or company shall not be required to perform work on the surface of said lode or lodes in order to hold the same, says the Mining and Scientific Press. The an nual labor of S100 on each claim may be performed under the above section by work done on tunnel, cutting, or which is driven to cut such claims. The patent expenditures of $500 may also be made in such tunnel. A party may patent one lode on the line of his tunnel for each $500 of labor spent in driving the tunnel. There is no provision of law for patenting a tunnel site. But it may maintain an adverse claim for the protection of it's line and tunnel rights. Every tunnel, whether a crosscut or run upon a vein is presumed to be for the development of lode claims, and in each case it's rights are very closely defined by law. If the proper notice has been posted on the site, estab- fishing the boundary lines there of, stakes set, etc., and the re- cord only made, the work must be prosecuted with reasonable diligence; the land office rules that a reasonable diligence in prosecuting the work is one of the essential conditions of the implied contract. Negligence or want of due diligence will be construed as working a forfei- ture of their right of all undis- covered veins on the line of the tunnel" A tunnel may, like any other kind of claim, be abandoned; but neglect to work does not effect an abandonment; such neglect only operates to de- prive it of tunnel rights along it's lines.-Citizen.

Water is what Arizona stands in need of. Give us this and the sun and the enterprising farmer will do the rest. The Denver Stockman well says:
 "Twenty-five years ago the country around Denver was dry as bone and the society composed principally of Indians, despera- does and poor Mexicans. The pioneers dug a few ditches and dumped the waters of the Platte out on the desert and presto magnificent farms, towns, villa ges and cities appear as if by magic. It was the water that made it all possible. Nature herself has taught the lesson, if man will but read it. There is still plenty of desert left. Put the water on 1t and 1t soon teens with life, animal and vegetable. By the expenditure of fifteen million dollars a year for ten years, the government can trans form millions of acres of desert and waste land into homes for millions of people. It is the great and grandest proposition ever dreamed of. It is simply impossible for the people of the vest to conceive of what the re- suit of such a move will be. Ii will mean a modern develop ment such as the world never saN before"

RICHARD GlRDlN MEXICO
Developing Mining Property
 Chihuahua

The Los Angeles Herald hes the following concerning Richard Gird:
 "It is not often that word drifts into Los Angeles from Richard Gird, who is at work developing mining property in Mexico. Mir Gird was one Of the famous Tombstene miners, then was we'll kuown as owner of the Chino ranch.
 Modern Mexico's correspondent st Fuerte, Sinalos, writes: A new mia- ing camp has been opened a, Agua Caliente, about six miles north of Chicipas, in the state Of Chiruahus, by Richard Gird, an old Ariz ona miner. The camp is called Guadalupe, and is composed of nine veins O! ore, carry ing gold and silver. They are from two to eight feet wide and have an average of SIS gold and F ounces of silver to the ten. Ora of this class IS very abundant and some ores run into the thousands of dollars to the ton. Mir Gird has established & fine mill at his mines, with 10 stamps. and with power for 20 additional stamps. The mill commenced operation May l last, and Mir GIrd has already shipped $40. 900 in bullion to the Alsmos mint. Mir Gi,d is sn experienc d miner and mechanic. He is now planning to es- tablish ar electric lght plant at a place about Is miles from his mines, where there is ( waterfall of 150 feet high. He anticipates that be can secure power here to run all of his machinery. This promises to develop into e large and louri-bing mining camp.
