MR. WESTON IN MOHAVE.
Preparing to Reorganize the White Hills
Mining Company.

William Weston, the well known
mining engineer of Colorado, arriv-
ed in Kingman on business con-
nected with the White Hills mines.
Mr.. Weston is general manager OF
the company. He was met here
by Harold D. Lane, local manager,
and a conference relating to the
future of the mines took place,
says the Mohave Miner. Mr.. Wes-
ton believes the White Hills mines
are all right, but that a large
amount of money is necessary to
place them on paying basis.
There is a proposition on foot for
the reorganization of the company
on a sound financial basis and the
renewal of work on the mines. Mr..
Weston, prior to goingto to Kingman,
visited copper property below
Wickenburg that he believes is de-
stined to become one of the biggest
producers of the red metal in Ari-
zona. The vein shows solid ore
bodies to the extent of twenty-five
feet in width and outcrops of thir-
teen hundred feet. Samples of the
outcrop show an average of eighteen
per cent copper. Although in the
gold belt the ore shows no value in

A New Department.

Representative S. D. Wood of
California has introduced in con-
gress a bill providing for the es-
tablishment of a department of
mines and mining. Mr.. Wood
says that the value of the mineral
products of the United States in
1890 amounted to a little over
$685. 6,8OO,0O0, and that an industry
of this size should be represented
in the government by a special de-
partment. Such a department
would also have the interests of the
miners to protect, and Mr.. Wood
believes that in a short time it
would become one of the most in
teresting and valuable departments
of the government.

RELIABLE RAILROAD TALK.
New Branches in Arizona Will Be Pushed
to Rapid Completion.

The surveying party of the Phoe-
nix and Eastern railroad has NOV
ed it's camp to about fifteen miles
below Mesa City, and the work
will now be pushed from that place
to completion, says the Gazette.
This is the final survey and the
American Development company,
of which Frank M. Murphy is .he
president, will begin the grading Of
the new line from Phoenix to Ben
son about the middle of January.
From that time on the road will
pushed rapidly to completion.
This company will also construct
a line from near Congress Junction
on the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoe-
nix, which will be pushed in a
northwesterly direction to the Col
orado river, and probably to
Needles. This work, it is believed,
will be done during the coming
year, and will open up some very
rich country.
With these short stretches of
road completed, the Santa Fe peo-
pie, by operating the Phelps-Dodge
road, will have a short line from
San Francisco to the City of Mex
leo and New Orleans.
1t is believed that the road from
Phoenix to Yuma will be pushed
during the coming year, and when
completed it will give the traveller
a chance to view some of the most
beautiful country in the world
The road will traverse the Salt
River valley, passing through Phoe-
nix, Buckeye, and running direct
to Yuma.

AS TO CLAIM JUMPING.
More Care Should be Exercised in Filing
Of Assessment Work.

Claim jumpers occasionally do a
great injustice to claim owners
through a mistaken notion as to
whether the annual representation
work has been done, i says the
Western Mining World. It often
happens that a claim is jumpable
from the fact that no record
of annual representation work has
been made in the Office of the
county clerk. In default Of the
record he assumes that the claim
has been abandoned. But he is
not justified in this. The law does
not make such record mandatory.
1t merely says the claim owner
may" make such record within
twenty days from the completion
of the work, setting forth certain
facts. The only advantage of max
ing such record is that the law
construes it as prima-facia evidence
that the work has been done. If
claim is jumped after the assess
ment work has been recorded, the
burden of proof is upon the jumper
to show that the work has not been
done and contemplated by law; on
the other hand if the assessment
work is not recorded the burden of
proof rests upon the owner of the
claim to show that the work has
been done. However, claim Jump
ers as a rule do not care about any
injustice that may be done claim
owners in their claim jumping act.

In the Vulture Country.


Boyd & Chapman, Frank Ordu-
ma and Jesus Diaz have located
four claims eight miles southwest
of town and about one mile north
Of Vulture peak, and bring in ore
which looks encouraging. As yet
but little work has been done, but
one or more development shafts
will be started next week. The
country rock is granite conglom-
crate and all the claims show rich
stringers carrying red oxide of
copper and copper glance. On one
of the claims Judge Boyd says
there is a four-foot ledge of ore,
traceable on the surface for aboutl
1000 feet, and if the samples
brought in are any indication, they
certainly have claims that warrant
development. From assays made
this week, values of So to $27 in1
copper and silver were obtained.

The Doctor Doubted.

Some people always take things
seriously, and like the man who
cried when his mother-in-law died,
cannot see a joke. Wickenburg
possesses some of these unsophisti-
Gated individuals who always be-
lieve everything said. The Wizard
Oil company has been giving en-
tertainments every evening during
the past week at the school house,
consisting of songs, burlesque and
the usual repertoire of medicine
companies. Thursday evening "a
burlesque operating room scene
was given, and in diagnosing case
of "water on the BRAIN" one of the
doctors remarked that if the pa
tient had the disease, pressure of
the finger between the fourth and
fifth ribs would cause water to
squirt from the mouth. DR.. G. N.
Branch, who was in the audience,
watched the scene until this re-
mark was made, when he excitedly
rose to his feet and remarked:

Biz Bug Properties Sold.

F. M. Williams on Monday sold
the Fitzhugh Lee and Joe Wheeler
mines in Big Bugdistrict for $1,000,
says the Prescott Courier. These
claims are in the same neighbor-
hood with the famous PolandHam-
ilton and First Home group of
mines. The properties were sold
to George & Go. of Los Angeles.
About $4,000 worth of development
work has been done on the two
mines, principally upon the Fitz-
hugh Lee, upon which there is a
shaft 70 feet on a vein of ore ten
feet wide which carries about $18
per ton gold and silver, principally

INDEPENDENCE GROUP.
A Promising Group In the White PicachO
District To be Worked.

Work on the Independence
group of claims near White Plea
cho will be started by Ben Swenin-
ger this week. About 600 feet Of
work has already been done on
these claims with good results, one
consignment of three tons averag-
ing over $125per ton, while num-
Der of tons of ore ran through the
Trilby mill netted Mr.. Sweninger
handsome profit.
The ledge varies from six inches
to three feet as shown up by shafts
and tunnels at various places along
it, and is a free gold proposition
worthy of investigation by anyone
with means sufficient to properly
equip it. There is one shaft 200
feet deep on the property, also a
2OO-feet tunnel and one of 181 feet,
all showing up good ore. In
some places the ore carries good
values in copper sulphides also.
There is good wagon road to
Morristown, fourteen miles distant,
while water is obtained within one
mile, from a spring sufficient to
run fve-stamp mill.

width of from Is to 80 feet and is
fabulously rich in free gold. The

Candidacy.

Capt. John Seaton is over from Atchi-

There is nothing unusual about this
statement, as Captain Seaton's business
frequently brings him to Topeka, but
as this one is INN ediately after the
announcement of w. J. Bailey's can
didacy for governor, it was thought
that this trip might have some political
significance.
But Captain Seaton denies it He
says he came to Topeka on a purely
business matter. and is paying no at
tention to politics.

did you, Captain" suggested a reporter
to him.
Yes, I see Bailey has SHE'D his castor

gregational church sang THE Lost
Sheep" and was followed by Governor
w. E. Stanley. The governor spoke at
length on the conditions of the penal
institutions of the state. and gave his
views of the subject under discussion
I'VE must view this subject from the
standpoint of a cold-blooded business
proposition said Governor Stanley.
THE punishment of crime is neces-
sity, and always will be. We can not
abolish punishment, so we must at
tempt to abolish crime. In Kansas
larceny, or burglary and larceny, is the
most prevalent crime, and 1t is not
strange that such is the case. Right
here in this city are l don't know how
many schools of crime which are edu-
eating boys to utterly disregard the
rights of other people," He said that
no public institution was equal to a
home, and long as boys were allowed
to run the streets and frequent the dens
where they receive their instruction in
crime, we would continue to need pen1-
tentiarieS.
"I am reaching the conclusion" said
Governor Stanley, that pardonS should
be an exception, and punishment swift
and sure. Give them the limit but
give them a chance by a system of
graduation according to their conduct
and department Have three grades,
and when they reach grade one, make
them eligible to a conditional parole.
During my term of office have grant
ed only four absolute pardons, and
about So conditional pardons, or pa
roles. Only three of this number have
violated the conditions of their parole.
In their cases it was the old story,
whisky. The curse of liquor is the
source of nearly all crime"
Mrs. Nation was not present to con-
tradict the governor, and he spoke at

tutions, and spoke of the improvements

Porter, at Kansas City, Kas., to secure
from Cumnins, the Twentieth Kansas
soldier who is accused by one of
Colonel Metcalf'S witnesses of being
one of two soldiers who shot Filipino
prisoners, an affidavit which would
effectually clear Metcalf of the charge
against him. 1t is said, however, that
Cummins refuses to take the blame on
his own shoulders and would not make
the affidavit.
Soldiers who were on the firing line
on the day that the alleged shooting
occurred, refute the statement that
Henderson, another soldier who makes
an affidavit damaging to Metcalf, was
in the hospital on the day of the shoot
ing. They say that Henderson had
been in the hospital, but had gotten
out and was carrying water on that
day.
