MACHINERY.

The machinery at La Democrata consists of hoist and a smelting furnace from the shops of the Colo rado Iron Works at Denver which has daily capacity of about I2s tons of ore and production of about fifteen tons of matte.
 The property is owned by MT H. Huffmann of Cincinnati, Ohio, with whom are associated in the ownership Messrs. Leo. G. Cloud of Nogales and P. E. Hook, the lat ter being the superintendent. MT. Cloud is also active ill the manage ment. To the energy and enter prise of these gentlemen is due great credit for the initiatoiy they took in the Cananea region. By his faith in La Democrata and the invest ment of his means, MT. Huffman proved the permauence and value of the great copper deposits. which before his work was done were con- sidered to have no great depth. He proved their depth and continuity; and as stated hereinbeiore his proofs gave confidence which aid ed in securing capital to develop and wo:k the surrounding proper. ties,
 The operating force at La Demo- crata consists of L. c. Cloud, man ager; P. E. Hook, superintendent, P. ]. Aguirre, assayer; Wm. Strum mine foreman.
 In La Democrata the fortunate owners have property which has attracted but little attention from the world at large, but it is known among mining men as a real bon anza, and is in the list of permanent producers in Sonora.

A HANDSOME PROPERTY.
The Mine and Reduction Works of La De- mocrata Mining Co. in the Cananeas.

Although small property, ln- cluding only eighteen pertenencias, the mine of La Democrata Mining Co.,, is one of the most important and valuable in all the Cananea region. Its present development oi large bodies of valuable copper ore give it real value to the owners, while its location with reference to other mines and its relative depth have a bearing upon the per manence and continuity of the ore bodies in other properties which gives an assurance of permanence with depth. Lying between the Cobre Grande and Veta Grande, and in close proximity to those two mines. the lower workings of La Democrata have developed great ore bodies upon horizon which will will require at least one thousand feet of sinking to reach upon the Veta Grande and the Esperanza, and the character of the formation encountered is a guaranty that upon the other properties the ore bodies will continue to those depths. Much of the money invested in other prop critics in the camp was strongly in- fiuenced by developments in La Democrata, and in making up their reports recommending investments experts based many of their conclu- sions upon those developments.
 La Democrata is opened upon four levels one a tunnel, the other three drifts and galleries from a shaft below, three hundred feet in depth, making four hundred feet, vertically, exposed to exploration.
 The tunnel runs into the noun tain over four hundred feet, most of the entire distance cutting through body of ores that pay very handsomely to work. The ores are carbonate, oxides and sulphides, the first 100 feet being carbonates Across the hill is another large body of carbonate ores from which are being taken. by an open cut, fifty tons of ore daily which are hauled to the furnace and reduced. The tunnel is being run to reach this second body of ore, and will do so within a distance of 300 feet. Then they can be brought through the mine on car instead of over the hill by wagons as now.
 In the shaft below there is three levels. Upon the first the work has developed large body of high grade sulphides more than one hun dred feet in width. A great deal of native copper and oxides also occur. Upon the second level ex- tensive workings show that tue same body of ore continues down. ward. Upon the third level drift ing toward the ore body is progress

INDIANA-SONORA.
Copper and Mining Co.,. Developing a
 Great Enterprise in the Cananeas.

One of the most important mining companies operating in the wonder tul Cananea copper mining region is the Indiana-Sonora Copper and Mining Co.,, consisting of number of gentlemen prominent in fnan- cial and business circles in the capital of the Hoosier state, and owning some 800 pertenencias of highly mineralized ground in the very heart of the region, upon which extensive exploration works have already developed large bodies of ore, which are being opened in a way that will shortly admit of pro- duction on tremendous scale.
 The properties of the Indiana Sonora company lie adjoining some of the best properties of the Greene Consolidated Co.,, and the ore bodies are in part combinations of ore bodies in the ground of the other company, while some of the largest and richest ledges are independent and are included solely within the lines of this company.
 The properties of this company include seven Announcements, five of them in bunch in the vicinity of the Esperanza mine, and the other two adjacent to the Cobre Grande, two of the richest and bes, mines in the camp, upon which ex- tensive workings have proved enor. nous ore bodies. The seven claims are named Sierra de Cobre, Eureka Have de Cobre, Oversight, Copper Bell, American and Copper Belt The two latter are at the Cobre Grande end of tine region, and ad jacent to that great property. As yet but little work has been done upon these two properties. The other five are some two and ope- halt miles away in the very center ot the present field ofgreatest devel opment. Two of these properties the Sierra de Cobre and Have de Cobre (Mountain of Copper and Key of Copper are immediately ad- jacent, on tue west and north. to the Esperanza ground, in which there have been exposed most tre- mendous bodies of high grade cop per ores, described in a former article in THE OASIS. Upon the Sierra de Cobre is an immense body of croppings of copper gossan, a mountain of itself. Through the Have de Cobre and Sierra de Cobre run three great lodges, all centering in the mountain beneath these crop pings. The ledge upon the Eureka is continuation of the great ledge running through the Esperanza and Capote mines of the Greene Consolidated Co.
 Upon the Copper Bell ground are some "antiguo" workings, which,

 PRESENT WORKINGS.
 The principal workings now in hand are upon the Eureka, Sierra de Cobre and Lave de Cobre prop critics. Upon the Eureka are two sets of workings, known as Eureka No. and No. g. The No. work ings are two tunnels, one 25o feet long, running on the ledge HOO feet below the croppings. The ledge, which is mineralized the en- tire distance is ten to fifteen feet wide, with an average assay value Of about ten per cent copper. The other tunnel is cross cut now in eighty-one feet, running to cut the ledge at right angles with the other tunnel at a depth of 32o feet. The Eureka No. working is prospect shaft upon the other side of the mountain which has reached depth of I46 feet with a cross cut at the bottom, and has cut another ledge eighty-6ve feet in width, in which have been cut innumerable "hilos" (seams) of metallic copper, many of them as large as four feet in width. That cross cut is upon the line of change from oxide to sulphide ores, and the ores in the bottom of the drift are sulphides.
 Upon Eureka No. the vein is g contact between lime and porphyry. In Eureka No. the ledge is in lime
 Upon the Sierra de Cobre is a tunnel goo feet long, running north- east, which has cut the top of an ore body I5o feet in width There is also shaft 100 feet deep which the tunnel will intersect, at further distance of 25o feet and a further depth of forty feet.
 Upon the Have de Cobre tunnel is now in 275 feet which is running to cut the four lodges that run through this and the Sierra de Co., bre ground. They are each from 1 fifteen to twenty feet wide and the tunnel will cut them at a depth of 26o feet. All this work has been in tue way of prospecting

the Dingley tariff bill is in force be-
tween the United States and the
Philippines and that quite suits The
protected interests. 1t will be the
desire of the Republicans, when any
change is made, to put as high a
tariff as possible on exports from
those islands and the leaders are by
no means anxious TO precipitate a
discussion, which, at this time,
would prove productive of as much

The retaliatoIy tariff devised by

legislation believed to be deroga-
tory TO American sugar interests,
seems to be a particularly sore point
with the administration and one
concerning the results of which it
is difficult to obtain information,
but 1t is known that the Republicans
are most DESTROYS of negotiating a
reciprocity treaty with Russia, and
the subject is one that will receive a
