RlrzviLLe WINS the GAME.
Gets the Best Of Washtucna In q
Hot Contest.

OOG $OUVS8ts
Notwithstanding the rather threaten
ing weather of last Sunday. large crowd
assembled at the baseball grounds to
witness the struggle for supremacy in
baseball between mines representative of
Ritzville and Washtucna. Chittenden
went to bat for the spiders. while Tommy
Harris handed out the leather goods for
Ritzville. The first inning gave Wash
tucna one run. and Ritzville followed,
evening things up. Joe Gill was chiefly
responsible for Ritzville's score. The
ball was driven right to him. but, in order
that it might reach the highway beyond,
he spread out his feet and let it hurl past
between his support pillars. Reddy. for
Washtucna. then showed the audience
how that trick was done. The spiders
found Harris rather easy. and gave Ritz
ville's felders an opportunity to show
their sprinting powers. while they piled
up the runs. Up to the end of the sixth
inning Ritzville was decidedly shy on
runs. and Washtucna's friends we're most
jubilant over the final outcome of what
seemed to be a sure-thing proposition.
But Nichols changed places with Harris
in the box for Ritzville, and the aspect
of the game was changed there and then.
Ritzville quit dreaming, and pulling
themselves together, set a pace for the
sheep-herders that couldn't be touched
but at distance. Ritzville's runs came
easy. while Washtucna's ability to score,
so evident in the first part of the gaale.
seemed to have got lost in the shuttle.
and down they went to their third success
sive defeat. ITO being the final score.
Irby made the hit of the day. and came
home safe while the 6elders hunted over
a distant woodpile for the ball. Wash
tucna fully expected to win. and mus
tered the best team possible for that
purpose. The umpire gave few rank
decisions. but they were fairly we'll divid.
ed up. and couldn't have changed the re-
suit. A return game will be played in
Washtucna. Sunday. May 3Ist.

Mexico, while presenting many very desirable mining propositions, also presents many obstacles to successful development and improvement of these properties once acquired. In the first place the law of Mexico makes a purchaser of a mining property citi. zen of that country unless ex-
 pressly stated otherwise in the instru ment of transfer, and then again, the new law of that country requires the employment of at least seventy five per cent of native labor and no dis tinction is to be made in the wage pay ment as between the native and for eign labor. Heretofore native labor could be obtained at about seventy five cents Mexican per day. Under the new law this labor will have to be paid at the same rate as other laborers and miners, which will make the work. ing of the mines, when taken in con- nection with the excessive tax and other incidentals, extremely heavy. Many foreign companies that were pre- pairing to take over Mexican properties are now looking elsewhere for invest ment, and just now Arizona looks more than good to them. For this reason we believe that Mohave county is des. tined to take in a large amount of mining capital this winter should the proper parties direct the investments.

Forty or fifty tons of ore are being hauled daily from the mine to the mill and as soon as the new locomotives are received one hun. dred and fifty or two hundred tons will be transferred to the big bins at the mill The ore is said to be of an exceptionally good grade and yields up high percentage of it's values on plates. The c,ncentrators will be used later on, when the ores become baser.

William O'Dea has opened up a splendid body of rich silver-gold ore on the Mariposa mine, of the Oro Plata group, in Todd Basin. He al. ready has a carload of the ore on the dump and is preparing it for shipment to the shelter. The ore was encoun tered in an entirely virgin part of the mine and it is expected that the ore body parallels the old ore chute, from which hundreds of thousand of dollars were taken in the past few years. J. w. Gerritt, the owner of the property, is feeling quite jubilant over the rich find.
