anomaly, politically speaking, which per-
ibaps cannot be duplicated anywhere else
In the United States. This district during
the Civil War sent to the front some
u, 900 organized soldiers to defend the
Confed eracy, while not ii single organized
body. not even a company, was sent to-
the Federal forces, lndYl d ais, of course,

army, but no organized body material

w. J. Slee, of Australia, arrived in Clifton few week ago for the purpose of installing Hancock jig in the con- centrating plant of the Arizona Copper com pany. The jig has now been in op eration about four weeks, and is prov ing itself wonder to mining men and others. It is capable Of handling A. tons an hour when D. to it's full limit. At the present time it is handling 35J tons in twenty four hours. It does the work of seven jigs which were formerly in use in the plant, and requires the same amount of water $ two of the old jiga. It requires less than half the room of one of the old jigs. It does its work equally as we'll if not better than the old machines. In fact it is an all roun wonder, but withall very sim pie machine. These statements will doubtless be regarded with suspicion by mining aud mill men generally, but the Era has the word of Archie Morri
  ing plant, as to their correctness. Mr. Slee claims that he can make the jig take the place of the first vanner room, thus making an additional great saving to the com pany. This ia the first Han cock jig in operation in the United States, though they have been in al most universal use in Australia for many years. MT. Hancock, who in vented the jig, Is a man of much means, and is in charge of large property at Broken Hill, hence he had neither the time nor incentive to in troduce the machine throughout the world. This machine will not only cheapen mining in this district, but will also prove the salvation of many mines whose owners are not able to erect regular concentrating plants. These machines are cheap, and can be operated by 5.h D. engine.-Era.

The veins are immensely large, one of thsm being twenty or thirty feet in WI lth ani rise, above :he can yon to night of fully two hundred feet. The surface ores carry high values in copper, but at the canyon level the copper cuts out and molyb. denum of an exceedingly high grade comes in. On the walls of the veins are to be found large flakes of pure sulphur, evidently teachings from the moly bdenum. This discovery of mo. ly ybdenum is the first made in Arizona and is considered of great i'm portance. The mines are owned by E. S. Osborne, H. w. Kemper. Smith & Sawyer, l.. J. Lassell and w. j.

Solomon & Go. have been taking con. siderable gold from the gravel banks west of Boulder springs the st two weeks. Some of the gold weighed as high as two and one half dollars, while the balance is very coarse. It is re ported that MT. Solomon took out POS inside of four hours with dry washer and the following day took lO5i, six hours. Owing to the wet condition of the ground the men have been doing but little the past few days. For many years it has been known that there was placer gold in the country south of Kingman and a nun Der of small nuggets, or chispas, have been picked up, but no one thought enough of the ground to thoroughly pros pect it with machine. Most of this ground is covered with lode locations, but the real veins have never been found. Last year, while the excitement was on, work was done on granite dykes and locations held in this way. Should a prospector go in there now he would run up against prior location and might lose his claim, although the oth- CT fellow really owned nothing. Wi hin year we expect to see many claims working in that section of country and giving good results.

THE ELECTION.

The election is now over and the peo-
pie will have time to look after their
business. The state campaign has been
the hottest and the most bitterly fought
of any ever held in the state and not
withstanding the fact the Republicans
had a wide margin 10 go on in the state
Governor Peabody's policy has been re-
pudiated-there is no doubt about that.
He ran behind his ticket in every county
in the state and he is the only candi-
date on the ticket that was beaten.
The county election results gives a
mixed set Of officers. The Republicans
electing both commissioners, the sheriff
and county surveyor. while the Demo
Gratis have the assessor. clerk, treasurer,
county Judge, superintendent of schools
and coroner. All those elected are good
men and will serve the county faith
fully.
Now since the heat Of the contest is
over everyone admits that Alva Adams
will make a good governor and the nine
owners. miners and everyone else will
still be subject to the laws Of Colorado
and that prosperity will reign through
out this state. Whether this is true or
not all true Americans must admit that
the will of the people is supreme.
