every four years. Would this be a
good Investment? But there is no
good reason for supposing that the
ore will run so low as the illustrat-
i've figure of $6 per ton. 1t can
safely be put at So per ton, which
would double the amount of earn-
ings on the $6 basis.
Mr.. Sayer is not an experimenter
without money and trying to pro
mote a mine, or rather develop
one, on hot air. He has with his own
money purchased this famous group
of eight and fraction claims on
the great ledge that has been called
the mother lode of the country.
He has, from his pocketg7 "dug up"
the necessary money to de- a large
amount of development work, and
has not gone about footing his horn
from the house tops and trying to
sell stock to develop his property.
He has taken all the chance of the
vein pinching out at once himself,
and has done work to prove the
mine. He will probably, as soon
as he is fully satisfied, himself, that
his property is all right, ask few
other men of money to join him in
equipping the property and work
ing it. The equipment will be
a rather expensive proposition, be-
cause complete water system will
have to be constructed with pipe
line of nine miles. But when that
is in, this plant will be easily able
to supply Martinez with water as
we'll as some other adjacent mining
properties. The revenue from this
source will pay a good interest or
the money invested in the water
plant.
We have no hesitancy in saying
that the manner in which Mr.. Sayer
has taken hold OF this property
and the property itself give us a
confidence in the proposition that
we have not been able to feel in
many other mining schemes in the
country, though there are hun
dreds of others with high merit.

GEORGE B. UPTON RETURNS
and Work Is Again In Full Blast on
the OrO arande

The Orc Grande Nine, near Wick
enburg, has begun operations once
more. A force has been put to
work and grading for five-stamp
mill and work is being pushed on
the main shaft also, in the hope OF
developing sufficient water supply
to meet the needs Of the company
in making the test run with the
five-stamp mill which will be
erected in the near future. The
machinery has been ordered and is
looked for every day. Mr.. Upton
arrived from New York last Mon
day night. He is pushing work
with his usual energy when condi-
tons have allowed.
This movement means much to
the great Central Arizona Mining
Belt, and especially to the town OF
Wickenburg. AS soon as the COM
pany can be Certain that a stamp
mill treatment is the proper way
to handle their ores ie will erect a
1O0-stamp mill, which will be the
largest stamp mill IN the territory.
It is reasonably certain that this
will be found to be the proper
treatment and that this test will be
followed by the erection of the big
mill. October 1st is set as the date
when the company hopes to be
able to announce definitely the re-
suit of this test.
Knockers still ask funny ques-
tions and make sighting remarks
about this property. 1t does seem
peculiar that an institution that
has always paid its debts and at
tended to its own business should
have been the subject of so many
venemous shafts as has the Orc
Grande. A company ought to be
allowed to manage it's own affairs
until it is a fit subject for re-
ceiver's care. But we actually hope

ELECTRA NINE
Regular Shipments Of Ore 70 the
WiCkenburs Smelter

Harry F. Wilson of Wickenburg
is in the city en- route to California,
where he expects to make an ex-
tended stay. He is assistant secre-
tary of the Electra Mining Com
pany, whose headquarters are at
the above town and whose mine is
few miles east of there.
He says conditions at the mine
are fattering and a force of seven
men is at work developing and TAX
ing out ore. A fine ore body is
being uncovered and it looks better
with every foot of work. Two
wagon-loads of ore are being hauled
daily to the new smelter at Wick
enburg.
The smelter will start up in a
few days, as everything is practic-
ally ready and the management is
only waiting for little larger ac-
emulation of ore before it begins
operations. Ore is also being
brought in from the Angel mine,
and small quantities are being re-
ceived daily from many other
mines under development in nearby
districts. Republican.

THE SAFER MINE
Property That Is Improving as DeS
vslopment Progresses

yslopment Progresses
One DAY the latter part of lass
week We visited the property men.
toned in last weeks paper as d
good prospect. We went over the
property thoroughly with Mr..
Sayer, the promoter, and, to ex-
press it mildly, we must say that
it is undoubtedly a fine showing
for mine. On making some in
quiries we find that this property
is one of the oldest in the country.
1t was located away back in the
early '6Os and has been held ever
since.
Several thousand dollars have
been taken out of the rich ore
shoot on this property by the prim
tive ssarastta. Numerous shafts,
varying in depth from a few feet
to 100 feet have been sunk by
others before this property was
taken hold of by Mr.. Sayer, all of
which, with one exception, show
up ore in place, the big ledge aver
aging about Elk feet in thickness,
the thinnest place being four feet
and the thickest ten. The ledge is
rather fat, having a dip of only
25 degrees from the horizontal. The
new working shaft, where Mr.. Sayer
has done most of his development
work, is now down 80 feet and a
drift is being started on the ledge
to show up the ore body. Frank
Anderson, with force of eleven
men, is pushing the development
work as rapidly as possible. The
work has been hitherto carried on
by a horse power whim, but steam
hoist is already on the ground and
it's installation will take place at
once. This will enable the men to
proceed much more rapidly with
the sinking. Martinez people are
glad to see work going on so nicely.
It means a great deal for the town.
According to assays from nine
samples taken from the face of a
five-foot ore body the values are
claimed to be $9.67. Considering
the immensity of this ledge, should
the values turn out to be only Sc
per ton, the property could be
made to net over 100000 per year
with forty-stamp mill. And with
a lOO-stamp mill, should the COM
pany ever desire to put in one of
such size, the property would on
that conservative estimate be made
to give net profit of 100000

support of the eighty nine delegates
to which Mahoning county is entitled.

ager of B. F. Writ, and largely respon-
sible for his creation as Senator from
this district, has announced emphati-
cally that Mr.. Kennedy is his choice
for Congress, so that Writ is consid-
cred not to be in the running, and by
his silence asserts that he will not be
in the race. General Sanderson, whose
name was mentioned, states that he
will not be a candidate. d. #. Ander-
son, of this city, who has been most
active candidate for the nomination,
has decided to withdraw from the
race, and so announced this afternoon
prior to leaving the city on business.

SECRETLY AND QUIET
LY.
Coffee Slowly and Steadily
POiS0nS Some Persons.

There is no doubt that coffee secret.
ly and quietly causes an immense
amount of misery to the human race.
but in the majority of cases the per-
son does not suspect the cause of the
trouble.
A Virginia lady had an interesting
experience with coffee poison. she
says. "For about five years I was
troubled with indigestion, weak stom-
ach and palpitation Of the heart so
bad that at times would fall and have
to be carried into the house. Finally
I began to have spasms and suffered
untold misery. / tried all kinds Of
patent medicines and different doctors,
only to get temporary relief.
I finally gave up all hope of getting
well. My stomach was in such condi-
ton that everything but stale bread
would throw me into spasms. l nearly
starved myself, but never suspected
that coffee was the cause of all the
trouble, nor did ] have any idea what
the cause was.

reading how Postum Food Coffee help
ed so many people who were sick from
coee drinking and he urged me to leave
off coffee and try Postum. said:
'Oh Father. cannot try It and do moi
believe it will do me any good but he
persuaded me to try package.

it made me half sick. but determined
