Some fine showings have been

the Idaho Consolidated Copper
Mines Company, of which Hatha-
way & Company, New York, are

The Orc Grande.

A representative of the News
Herald visited the Orc Grande
Thursday to ascertain what had
been done lately on the biggest
gold strike of modern years. While
the owners have not been saying
much the past few months, they
have not been idle, as is evidenced
by thes1 600 feet or more of devel-
opment work already done. The
100 foot level was visited, but lack
of time prevented further examina-
ton. On this level about 600 feet
of drifting has been done, and
about 100 feet of crosscutting,
showing up an ore body that rivals
the old Vulture in richness and
extent. Much of the ore contains
coarse gold plainly visible in the
sides of the tunnels and crosscuts,
and many fine specimens have been
taken out during the work. Super
intcndent Hatfield, through whose
courtesy we were permitted to ex-
anime the workings, has number
of specimens and nuggets averaging
from 81 to SO each. CrOsscuts and
drifts are eing run on the 200 and
3OO-foot levels and we understand
that out of about / 900 feet of work
done, only about 80 feet is not in
ore. General Manager Upton and
Superintendent Hatfield have
shown their energy and ability tc
handle big mining property tc
the best advantage and we no moi
believe there is another property ir
Arizona which has been opened uI
as economically and expediently as
the Orc Grande. All the machin'
cry is of the latest pattern, every
thing runs as smooth as clock
work and the accommodations, no
alone for the officers, but for tht
men, are the best in the territory
Within a short time the News
Herald will endeavor to give a com
plete description of this wonder
fully rich mine.

the old resorts are flung open; the

melody and make the welkin ring
with modern ragtime music, come
dians hold an attentive audience
with grimaces of a grotesque ma
ture, incomprehensible dialects and
crack baywhiskered chestnuts that
SO delighted our grandfathers. All
of the ancient and modern games
are in operation, and above the
monotone cry of "Come seven,
come 'leven" may be heard the
musical clink of the dollar of our
daddies and the familiar rattle of
the worries as some fortunate has
succeeded in prodding the tiger in
the right place. This is the lively
season in Tombstone just now, all
occasioned by the convening of

ARIZONA TIN MINES.
Stephens Property in Mohave County
Bonded for $4,000.

A special correspondence from
Prescott to the Republican says F
M. Senteney and John Reece, two
old-time miners and prospectors.
have just made a remarkable dis
covery of tin ore in Mohave county.
Some time ago tungsten was found
in the Aquarius mountains, the
range that divides Mohave and
Yavapai counties, and upon hear
ing of the facts, these two prospec-
tors decided that the district where
the tungsten ore was found ought
to be good locality to prospect
for tin. Consequently they spent
considerable time this fall in the
Aquarius mountains, and have re-
Gently located five claims that have
a strong surface showing of tin ore.
Samples brought to Prescott and
tested, run as high as so per cent,
and the ore is the same character
as that of the tin mines at Corn
wall, England. In lodges of field
spar, that lie in nicaceous schist
formation, punches of tin ore, car
rying very high percentage as
and so per cent tin) are found on
the surface. There is also a great
dyke, on which several locations
have been made, the surface ore
going 4 per cent copper, which at
ten feet in depth shows strong in
the pink oxides of tin. Several
specimens of tungsten and tin ores
were brought into Kingman a short
time ago, which were found in the
same locality, and claims located
by William B. Stephens, Frank
Russell and two other men by the
names of Butler and Murphy,
Samples were sent to Denver and
returns showed assays of so per
cent to Is per cent in tin. This
attracted the attention of some
Denver capitalists who heard Of it
and a trip was made to the scene
of the discovery, which resulted in
their bonding the Stephens property
for $4,000, consisting of three
claims with barely the title work
done on them.

Keep Your Eye Open for Platinum.

The recent statement of G. S.
Hunter, metallurgist for the Do
minion government at Vancouver.
that among the millions of dollars
in gold dust he buys from the Yu-
kon miners, he finds quantities of
small nuggets of platinum, and
that the miners are undoubtedly
throwing away thousands of dol
lars worth of this rare metal, con-
tains food for thought for our own
miners, says the Prescott Prospect.
There is no reason why Arizona
should not produce platinum, for
every other known mineral is found
in our wonderful mineral belts;
but the prospector or miner is too
apt to take notice only of the par
ticular metal he is searching for,
and has his attention keyed up for
gold, silver and copper, discarding
all else.
Platinum, which two years ago
was only worth $12 an ounce, is
now quoted at $21, and the demand
is increasing. 1t has only been
found in the native state-generally
in connection with placer gold.
The bulk of the supply comes from
Ural mountains in Russia; but a
small amount is produced yearly
from placer mines in northern
California and Oregon. The largest
nugget ever found was about the
size of mans fist.
The news-herald., 1901-12-28

The new Arizona mining is avail
ing itself of the methods that have
proved effective in other regions.
Deep shafts are being sunk and the
best types of hosting and pumping
machinery are being installed.
Milling and smelling plants are
being built to save all the different
values that complex ores contains.
Mining is being made a business of
manufacturing rather than an op-
portunity for gambling. 1t can
not help being made a profitable
business. Copper can be manu-
factured very cheaply in Arizona"

commission was defeated in the lower
court. The case was then appealed to
the supreme court where verdict has
been rendered for the defendant upon
the ground of the unconstitutionality of
the state law. The following is in part
the opinion of the court:
"It is not within the power of the leg

laws not necessary to the preservation
of the health and safety Of the COM

fishes the unconstitutionality of the pro-
vision of the agricultural law relative to
the manufacture and sale of oleomar-

in accord with generally recognized
principles of justice. 1t is to be hoped
that it will be a precedent for other
states and for the supreme court Of the
United States if congress should ever
pass an act like the Grout bill which
places tax of ten cents per pound upon

the country have joined in declaring

to directly prohibit trafficking in this
product in New York it ought to be
equally unconstitutional to Indirectly
suppress it's manufacture and sale in any
part of the union by means of arbitrary
restrictions or excessive and prohibitive
taxation. The same principle of law
should hold no matter whether the

Free silver, he says, has brought about
a new sectionalism in the south and has
established a
New Sectionalism Mason and Dixon
line south of the
Ohio and Potomac. This is quite true.
The old sectionalism had practically died
out. Under the leadership of Mr..
Cleveland the South was rapidly assum-
ing it's old position in the affairs of the
nation. Free silver, however, caused
the democratic party to lose its prestige
in the North and gave to the opposition
party every northern state but four,
virtually dividing the country on the
old-time sectional lines.
"The whole world" SAYS Mr. Patte-
son, "knows that our real interests are
necessarily nearer
Unity of Interest. to New York and
the Eastern states
than to those so far west of the Mississ-
ippi. The four western states which
we're carried have IS electoral votes, and
those which we lost from the South
Maryland and West Virginia, to which
may be fairly added Delaware - have
! IS. There never was a time in the his
tory of the country when the party
showed such unmistakable weakness
The recent vote Of the South does not
properly represent the southern people
1t was known when the nomination Of
Mr.. Bryan was made that he would
carry the southern states, and the views
of men coming from that section, who
never did and never will believe in free
silver, were not considered. tt was
looked upon as fact, as much as any
thing could be which had not taken
place, that they would vote the ticket.
But the party leaders have gotten their
warming in Maryland and West Vir-
ginia The breaking away of these
southern states is the handwriting on
the wall. Hereafter there will never be
again a solid South against united
North. No great party can live on
class hatreds and appeals to passions Of
the people. 1t is a loss to the country
and to the national intelligence when
from the Potomac to the Rio Grande it
is not even thought necessary to discuss
the questions of interest to the whole
nation"

Southern people are deprived of partici

Self-Affliction. affairs, they have
only themselves to
blame. Their troubles are entirely of
their own making. And when they
think they have suffered sufficiently per-
haps they will apply the proper remedy
that Mr.. Patteson so vigorously urges.
IF the South wishes to cooperate with
the North they must refrain from try
ing to force upon the people of the east
ern and middle states financial vagaries
and socialistic theories they cannot and
will not accept.
