to spread through the territory.
The primary purpose OF the frs,

league. This accomplished 1t will be
left 10 the league to determine whal
kind OF statehood 1t Is going to ap

of other leagues which will be formed
rapidly all over New Mexico, no,

districts. The aim Is to get an ex

leo upon the statehood question. These
statehood leagues will bring forth al
most as complete an expression al
would an election upon the question

The men behind the movement are
thoroughly in earnest and propose t

Albuquerque
Booming Statehood

I'VE, the undersigned, citizens and
voters, hereby unite In requesting all
citizens of New Mexico and especially
Of the city Of Albuquerque, who favor
the admission Of the territory OF New
Mexico into the union as a state,
either separately or jointly with Ari-
zona, to meet with us at the hall over
Zeiger's cafe on Saturday evening, the
8th inst, at 8 o'clock for the
purpose of organizing a non.partisan
statehood league in the city of Albu-
querque, and to take steps for the ex-
tension and organization Of such
leagues in all other cities, towns and
counties in the territory. The pur-
pose of the organization is to give ef-
feet to the sentiment in New Mexico
in favor of statehood where 1t already
exists and to increase such public SEN
timent, and to take every possible step
to promote the admission Of the terri
tory into the union at the earliest date
possible. 1t is especially important
that such steps should be taken as
there will be a special session Of con-
sress in October, and II the favorable
public sentiment which already exists
in New Mexico is organized SO that
it can properly exert itself. there can
be little doubt that the admission OF
the territory can be brought about at
a much earlier date and probably in
the next session Of congress.
I'VE earnestly request all citizens In

SOUTHWESTERN MINES

The Chiricahua mining district, 10.
Gated in the range Of mountains Of the
same name. Is about ten miles north
west Of Rodeo. N. NJ, a station on the
III Paso & Southwestern railroad,
writes a Silver City Independent cor.
respondent.
This district Is rapidly becoming
prominent by reason Of rich copper

time past the value Of the belt and

ed in fvery instance the high |reputa'
ton Of the district. Many properties
have changed hands within the past
year, the majority going ove to east
ern capitalists for good, stiff prices.
The whole country is strongly erup-
tive, broken by folds rising to some
500 feet above the plains, with deep
ravines and washes. Lime and por.
phyry are the chief formations. the
ores occurring at or near the contact
lines. On the eastern slope facing, the
San Simon valley, where the lime ap-
pears In an unaltered state, the ores
break through the hard surface in
their blossoms. When followed up.
the lodges invariably widen. forming
large deposits.
So far, only three companies are
working on a large scale. They are
the Chiricahua Development company.
the Savage Gold and Copper company
and the CochiseC Consolidated company.
The Chiricahua Development company
near Paradise, a company with Mich
igan capital, are developing a large
property which promises to become
a great producer In the near future.
The Savage Gold and Copper COM
pany. located among the foothills
about five miles east Of Paradise, Is
working in a high grade ore. This
company own forty claims, but at
present work Is concentrated on the
upper end OF the group rear Round

eign demand has caused American
consumers TO bid higher to protect

himself on a rising market. Nor Is II
possible TO supply this demand. All
The copper properties Of the United
States are working to their limit OF
production, more and more Of the red
metal has been poured into the chan.
nels OF commerce, but the price has,
nevertheless. continued to raise.
There is difficulty at the present
time to supply the home market. let
alone the foreign; and that must be
taken into account. since foreign buy
ers are here, determined to obtain
their wants, or make the American
consumer pay a higher price.
This means a higher price for a con-
siderable length OF time. since copper
mines are not made to order. but are
developed through long and tedious
work to operate on a gigantic scale
1t requires. frequently, years Of oper'
alton to reach the realization Of pro-
duction, and there are few properties
in existence where 1t requires but the
erection OF a reduction plant to con.
vert the copper in the ground into
marketable value. Where such prop
critics do exist, mills and smelters
are being rushed to completion, to
take advantage OF the rise--but even
this will not tend to lower the price,
since all Of the properties upon which
reduction plants are being erected
cannot supply sufficient red metal to
cause copper to fall in the scale Of
value-and, as stated above, it takes
years to develop a copper mine-but,
the mine has first to be discovered,
before that a happen, even.
1t Is for this reason that producers
of copper are wearing such broad
smiles.

Good Strike In Esmeralda.
Bob Tate, OF Bisbee, who, with his
brother, Is the lessee Of the Esmeral.
da mine in Sonora, has received word
that the best strike as yet made in the
mine was made last week at a depth of
thirty feet. Ore was brought to that
city to be assayed and was found to
run 116 ounces OF gold and 1888
ounces Of silver to the ton, or a val
uation Of $6.S33 for the silver and
$c,324 for the gold. Mr.. Tate Is very
much elated over the excellent strike,

no demand for labor, and where liv.

to walk hundreds Of miles through a

Arizona, where there Is plenty of
