that large quantities of ore were ex- tracted therefrom and leaving in sight rich ores. But all those old workings were crude and dunscienJific. Modern methods can make these properties pay far beyond the returns to the old time priests.
 The average yield of these ores are over twenty dollars per ton. By mod ern concentration processes they can be reduced ten tons into one, which can be shipped to smelter at a great saving in the cost of transportation The present nearest reduction works is at El Paso, which readily buys such concentrates as these would be at fair prices, profitable to the shipper. But resumption of operations at the Pata- gonia shelter, and erection of the Duques1e shelter will give a choice of nome markets near at hand.
 An abundant supply of water for all purposes can be readily secured from the Santa Cruz river, but about mile away, by pumping, and wood for fuel will be brought in from the surround- ing hills at reasonable prices. A good wagon road from Nogalef leads right to the mine, and it can be reached in three quarters of an hour drive from the line city
 Speedy inauguration of work and installation of the necessary machin- cry is contemplated by the Grant Mining Co.,. and it's operations will make a valuable addition to the pro- ductive power of Santa Cruz county. THE OASIS wishes them every success.

A NEW ENTERPRISE.
Another Great Produciug Mine In Santa
 Cruz County.

Without doubt one of the greatest and richest mining regions in the United States lies close to the Inter- national boundary between Arizona and Mexico. including the Patagonia and Santa Rita mountains all within a radius of twenty-five miles from No gales, the seat of government of Santa Cruz county.
 Within the rock ribbed fastnesses of these mountains there are already in operation the great Duquesne group of copper mines to reduce the ores Of which together with ores in other properties in the yicinityl MT. George Westinghouse, the millionaire mauu- facturer of Pittsburg is arranging to erect upon the Santa Cruz river, about seven miles east of Nogaes, a colossal reduction plant with daily capacity Os 300 tons of ore, with railway con meeting the mines, the plant and No gales; the Pride Of the West group Of copper mines, ores from which are successfully concentrated and smelted in reduction plant of 100 tons daily capacity erected by the owners, Gee X Willey. at Washington Camp; the Mowry mine where are to be seen the ruins of primitive smelters rsed by the early Spaniards two hundred years  or more ago, in reduction Of the ore, and which was reopened and worked in 1860 by Sylvester Mowry. the lead and silver bullion being transported in wagon to Guaymas aud shipped by water to Europe, although itis related of other currency in the region. was cut into small, flat squares, the values stamped thereon and circulated as money. while some of the lead was shipped east aud moulded into bull lets, for use of the Confederate army; the Hardshel mine, near Iiarshaw, owned by the Patagonia Mining Go which has in operation a cOncentrat- ing plant of the latest model, daily reducing fifty tons of ore; the Worlds Fair mine, with great bodies of ore developed, aggregating in value well towards a million dollars, which the lucky owner, Frank Powers, says is safer than in bank, and whenever he wants ten or twelve thousand dol lars he simply stopes out q carload of ore and ships it; the Lead Queen group of mines, making regular ship ments of high grade ores; the old Her. mosa mine at Harshaw, with tre- mendous record of production; the Red Rock group, numbered among the the permanent and regular producers of high grade ores; the R R.R and Flux mines, and the Flames mines, all producing ores rich in value, for the reduction of which the shelter at Patagonia, with daily capacity of eighty tons, will be soon blown in; and score or more of mines beside, which all lie within the area noted.
 Many of these mines go back with records of production to the days of the early Spanish occupation, which began 250 years or more ago-about 164O-5. In those days the mines were worked for the church or the crown, not property in all the vast region but paid heavy royalty to one of the two great estates in the polity of Spain; and all the power of the crown was put forth to protect the opera tion of the mines and preserve peace

the reg ion held the savages in subjec- tion, and heavy guards of troops con- voyed the bullion trains to the City of Mexico, crossing lofty mountains over trails which still exist, worn into the solid rock to the depth of a foot or more, by the almost ceaseless grind of the noofs of countless trains of mules, beariug upon their back loads of bull lion for the royal and papal treasuries. With the patriotic uprising in 1910, which led to Mexican independence eleven years later, the Spanish forces were withdrawn from the Pacific coast provinces, and shortly after came the Apache uprising, with it's malignant record of cruelty and mur- der putting stop to all activity and industry in all the vast region now known as Arizona. Sonora and Sina- loa. Hundreds if not thousands of richly productive mines were aban- doned-too frequently owners and WOrkmen being exterminated by Apache hatred-and, in many instan- ces all traces of where ich mines once existed have become obiterated.
 Among the properties abandoned at the time of the Apache uprising was a group of mines situated upon the west side of the Patagonias and across the Santa Cruz river including an exten. sion of the same mineral belt, about four and one.half miles north from Nogales, Arizona. The records at Magdalena, Sonora, show that this mines were extensively and profitably worked. in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, by the priests at the Tumacacori mission, near Gala basas, on the Santa Cruz river; aud some of the open cuts or "tajOs, " p or 30 feet deep, together with a number of shafts, from 40 to l2O feet in depth, are still to be seen mute evidences of the busy life which once existed there. With the uprising of the Apaches, early in the nine teenth century, the priests were mas sacred, and all work ceased for three quarters of a century or more.
 The ruins of old Spanish "arrastras" in the immediate vicinity, and similar ruins oi 'yasas" rude adobe smelling furnaces) show that the processes of reduction of ores used were both free amalgamation and smelting.
 Early in the present decade the property were located by Americans, who were unfortunately hampered by lack of capital, so necessary for working upon large and effective scale, and 1t was possible for them to continue work only as they extracted marketable ores from the vein. In doing so they carried in tunnels qggre- gating 600 to 800 feet, about forty feet below the surface, reaching the old Spanish workings, and sinking there a winze fifty-six feet in depth. In do- ing this work they sorted out and shipped all ore of the value of $40 per ton and upward, leaving all ore of less value with the waste in the mine and dumps. The shipping ores went to Socorro, N M., and Pueblo, Colorado,
 About year ago these properties passed into the hands of eastern capi- tai, the new owners having organized for their development and eXplota- tion upon an extensive scale, a corpor- ation known as the Grant Mining Co.,, incorporated under the laws of Ari- zona. It is the intention Of tie com- pany to erect d concentrating plant and proceed to reduction of the exten- sive ore reserves already in sight, and
