It is the fixed policy of the Review to avoid flash write-ups of mining prop critics and .confine its mention to plain facts, allowing the public to draw it's own conclusions from those facts.
 The mining representative of the Re view having heard so much of the property above mentioned took the trouble to visit the ground last week. The property consists of 22 claims in compact form.
 The group covers the sumit of the Huachuca range at the head Of Miller canyon. and is about 2S miles west and a little north of Bisbee. The property is so extensive, and embraces such a multitude of different features and de- tails that we cannot attempt to de scribe il minutely in one issue. Gener- ally speaking, it is an immense gold proposition, carrying a fair showing of copper. silver and other metals. The owners lay no particular claim to any thing but gold, yet there is a showing of copper in several places that would get "th boss" wild, if found in the War ren district. The property includes eight distinct lodges running parallel with each other. The lodges are re-
 
 thickness the smaller ones being about three and one-half feet and the larger ones five to eight feet in thickness. The lodges are known respectively as the Washington, the South. the Blue Bell, the Shylock. the Emma, the So oranti, the Gertrude and the Golden Lilly. There are no nuggets lying around loose. and though occasional pockets are found running up into the thousands, little attention is paid to the fact by the management who are looking strictly after the permanent development and operation of the property. There has been about 1,200 feet of effective development work done on the property besides a large amount of surface gouging which was done by chloriders and shippers before the present management came into possession,
 The company have developed sever. al lodges in the neighboFhood of a hundred feet. and we found that the quality of the ore invariably improved vStk depth. They are in position to know almost to a unit what the average values are so far as the prop erty has been developed. They have spared no pains nor expense to gel right. in the particular detail of values having made countless assays and also 6 mill run of over 200 tons The ore used in the mill run however. was rot an absolutely impartial selection. hay. ing been roughly sorted and the re suit was too high to be quoted in this article. Supplemented as the mill run was however by elaborate assays from impartial samples. they have con cluded that the whole property will average about nine dollars. There is an abundance of free gold in the ore but is is essentially a concentrating proposition, running rapidly in to sul phuretts as they go down.
 Every ledge can be traced almost continuously for several thousand feet and are in position to be worked al the best possible advantage Along with this brief and conservative men ton of this remarkable property, wf can confidently assert that in the mat ter of facilities for development. in cluding the lay of the ground. along with such vital adfuncts. as wood and water, we have never seen anothei property in all Arizona that enjoyed
