depth. u. Z. McDaniels was also one
of the early locators who met with con-
siderable success and is still in the
camp and has some valuable holdings.
The property which is being most ex-
tensively worked at the present time is
the Cleveland owned by the Nagle
brothers.
At the eastern base of the mountain
about three miles from the old Monte
yuma, more generally known as the old
lead mines, is the Graphic mine which
was located some 20 years ago by
A. P. Taylor.
This property is In porphyry and Is
the richest in silver Of any mine in the
district, some ore having been taken
from Il which ran rs high as l,5OC
ounces to the ton. This mine WAS sold
by Mr.. Taylor to Walter Hadley, who
is said to have taken thousands Of dol
lars worth Of high grade ore out of It,
Afterwards il was leased to j. B. Gil
christ who did the last work on the
main opening putting It down to the
depth Of 625 feet, the greatest depth
vet attained in thecamp The property
also has the distinction Of having the
most machinery Of any mine on the
east side Of the mountain, being equip
ed with hoist, pumps and cOncentra'

The DsmInG Ice and Electric Co.

While, as yet, Deming has not done
much in a manufacturing line, the loca-
tion, as regards railroads, mining
camps etc., make this natural point
for such enterprises and we may con-
fidently look for a number Of import
ant plants to be erected during the
next few years. The way has been
paved, and the start made by three Of
our enterprising citizens, Messrs, C..
Reihs, H. NJ. Stecker and ]. W. PEN
newill, who have bound themselves
together as a company under the name
Of the Deming Ice & Electric Co., and
built the Deming Ice factory and
Electric light plant. This Institution
was built in June last year and has
been improved and enlarged until It
now has a capacity Of Is tons of ice per
day: while the business in the electric
light department Of the work has
grown so that they have had to install
a new dynamo Of twice the capacity Of

But TO return TO our story Of the
mines. The rush 10 the camp after the
first discovery was not great like il
usually is in such cases as the fear of
Indians and the low price of lead at the
time deferred any but the most VEN
ture some from going there; however,
a few hardy miners staked their faith
on the future Of the district and took
up claims IN the vicinity of this find.
In 1887 another big strike was made
by Teal and Poe adjOi ming the
MonteZuma on the east and little
lower down the mountain. This strike
brought more people into the camp and
claims were staked out on all sides both
on the mineral belt and off Of it and
prospect holes were dug by hundreds
during the next few years many Of
them opening up good mineral deposits.
The ores on the east side of the mount
ain were more easy of access at that
time, so the most important work was
done on that side Of the range.
Following the Teal and Poe strike
was that of the El Paso company some
distance down the mountain. William
Keith who worked them is said to have
reaped big rewards for his labor. A.
Taylor located several large claims
which brought good profits. Clark and
Cotton had meproperties which proved
valuable. While large quantities of
rich ore have been taken from all these
claims the development on any Of

elaims which have been worked in a
small way and win 10 doubt prove val

just beyond the summit, following the
mineral belt IN . nOrtherly direction,
Is what Is known g the DR.. Miller
mine which has been worked for about
10 years by various parties and has
produced large amounts Of good ore.
AS we descend the mountain in the same
direction we come TO the White Oaks
group, owned by Dennis Peoples, con-
siderable development work has been
done on these claims and they are con-
sidered among the valuable properties
of the district, farther to the northeast
we find the claim Of Ed Orr; this claim
carries more gold than any other in
the camp, shipments often giving
returns of $500 in gold. Near these
properties on each side are many other
claims which have been worked to a
small extent and have yielded some
good mineral values.
Returning to the DR.. Miller mine we
find, in a southwesterly direction, the
H. C. lockwood group Of claims,
which have had a large amount Of
work done on them; these properties
were originally located by Peter Strey
who earned a reputation for nerve by
being the only miner who stayed in the
camp the entire time during the Indian
scares from 81 TO 50, It was told of
him that during these years he would
take his rife into the drift where he
was working and at the first sound of

but, when capital can be interested in
the district and transportation secured
they will doubtless be heard from. This
is, and always has been, practically a
poor mans camp: the ore being near the
surface and of q clean quality many
men Of small means have worked here
and made good stakes from the pro-
ceeds Of their labor One old miner
who has known the camp said to the
writer: II believe Cooks Peak is the
best camp today, and always has been

County Commissioners.

Last Saturday evening a special
meeting of the board of county COM
missioners was called for the purpose
of notifying the railway companies in
the county to place fire guards along
the lines Of their road, in accordance
with section 1904 Of the compiled laws
of 1897. Those present were w. c.
Wallis, chairman; w. M. Taylor COM
missioner and B. Y. McKeyes clerk,
Notices were prepared and certified
copies served on the Atchison Topeka
g. Santa Fe Railway company, the
Southern Pacific railway company,
and the FL Paso & Southwestern railway
company. This action was necessary
in order that any persons in the county
who might be injured by fire started by
the railway trains could have legal act
ion against the company for damages.
1t is evident that the board of com
missioners do not intend to let anything
go undone which will benefit or protect
the Interests OF the people of the
county.

A Fence Wanted.

There is considerable complaint being
made about the amount of stock that is
being killed by the Santa Fe railroad
on account Of their track not being
fenced. One man who has fine herd Of
heeford cattle some miles east of town
has lost several head this spring, not
witnstanding the fact that he has hired
a man at $1,000 per month for the
last three months TO ride The track and
drive the cattle off. This is a serious
loss as the company neverpay anywhere
near the value Of such animals and the
delay Of getting the claims allowed
nearly eats up the amounts paid when
they are finally adjusted. There is
law requiring the companies TO fence
their tracks and in addition to this we
understand several cattlemen in this
county have offered to build the fence
on the part of the line crossing their
range II the company will furnish the
material. With the conditions as they
are something should be done to COM
pell the companies to furnish better
protection to the stock interests of the
region traversed by their roads.

any one approaching, he would blow
out his light and seize the rife and ask
who Is that? when assured by the
voice Of a neighbOring miner he would
say; alright, thought it might be an
Indian"
Finally tiring Of the lonely life in the
mines, and having enough of this
worlds goods TO make him comfort
able for life, he sold out and went back
to Minnesota to spend his old age in
ease. Following the mineral belt farth-
er down in the same direction we have
a large group Of mines owned by the
Haywood Lead Co., these properties
have probably produced more than any
group Of claims on the west side Of the
mountain, and considerable machinery
has been installed by the company,
among which is a fine large dry con-
centrating mill. J. P. onstott was the
original locator Of these properties and
and worked them on an intelligent
practical plan up to the time he sold
out to the Haywood Co., thus demons
trating the. real value Of the holding.
Below this group are several hold
lngs which were sold by Thrill brothers
that have been good producers. Besides
those which we have made special
mention OF, there are many other good
claims owned by poor people who only
do the annual assessment work on them

condensers in the ice plant. which is
discharged at just the right temper
ature for this purpose, and furnishes a
supply to keep fresh water running
through the pool all the time. On the
remainder Of the ground owned by the
company, grass, shrubs and trees will
be started and apleasant park Installed,
the water from the swimming pool
being used for irrigating and beauti-
flying the grounds, and it will only be
a few years until the Deming Ice Works
will be one of the most delightful
spots in this region.

The number of emigrants to the United States during the fiscal year just ended exceeded the combined population of Montana, North Dak- ota, Wyoming and Idaho in 1900, or the present population of North and South Dakota together. And yet we can assimilate upwards of 800, 900 for eigners annually without knowing it save from the emigration statistics. The people now coming to our shores are not all desirable, but we shall no doubt make good citizens of most of them. They will become not only pro- ducers but consumers, and, let us hope, will also become good Protec- tionists and Republicans as they real ize what Protection has done for them and their posterity.

The death of the Pope has called forth expression of sympathy from men of all religions. It is matter of no little significance that men of other religious views are able to estimate the dead prelate as man, philan- thropist, and man whose wide influ- ence was only for good. Ministers of every denomination all voiced their heartfelt sorrow at the death of the great man. The world is growing more just and broad minded, and can look upon goodness as positive quality always to be honored without personal points of view. In the death of Leo XIII the world has manifested its kinship in an unusual way and every man who is tolerant of the opinion of others must rejoice at the spectacle presented.
