A COMPLICATION.
Chaves County Has No Superintend-
ent to Approve Bond of coilec-

From New Mexican
Chaves county has a curious legal
complication. Superintendent of Pub
lis Instruction AmadI Chaves this
morning received the bond of J. s.
Lea, recently elected treasurer and
ex-officio collector of Chaves county,
for $4,000 as collector of the school
fund. The bond, according 10 law
should be approved by the county su
perintendent of schools, but Chaves

Denver, Colo, Jan. 3.-The supreme
court today took under advisement
the application of Governor-elect Al
va Adams for modification of the
order of the supreme court ordering
an investigation into the recent
election, and Chief Justice Gabbert
declared that the decision would be
given later. He did not specify any
time or date for the announcement
of the decision The arguments of
the attorneys consumed something
over an hour. Ex-Governor c. S. Tho
mas as attorney for Adams urged
that the order of the court be made
applicable to ballot boxes only He
asked that the investigation be made
under the supervision of a referee to
be appointed by the supreme court
On that plan he said that Adams was
willing to pay half the expense. Other
wise the expense of the investigation
would be too great for Adams. H. j.

licans, resisted the application for
modification of the order

Frank M. Ish Says Camp win Have
Large Influx This Fall

Frank M. Ish, one of the best known
mining men of the Goldfeld district
and the middle west, is authority for
the statement that this camp is to ex-
p~erionce a boom this fall which will
I~surpass in magnitude the rush to any
mining excitement in the history of
the United States. He bases his opin-
ion on the vast amount of attention
which Goldfeld is attracting in the
moneyed eenters or the country, which
he believes must of necessity result
in the investment of capital in the
mines of this locality. Mr.. Ish has %
wide experience in mining and is thor
|oughly imbued with the opinion that
the GoldfeId mines are among the
richest ever discovered and that with
development they will occupy a prom
|%inent position on the roster of the
worlds greatest gold producers. In
speaking on the subject to a reporter
for the News a few days since, Mr..
Ish said:
.I believe that Goldfeld is about to
enter upon an area of mining and gen
eral business prosperity which will be
a surprise even to the most sanguine
of us. There are a number of reasons
on which | base my presage for a boom
here this fall, among the most impor-
tant being the disposition which is
manifested in the east to again invest
in mining propositions, and the rapid
ity with which Goldfield is growing in
| popular favor as the best field for
! such Investment. For some years past
money has been tight in the east, not
because there is a scarcity but for the
| reason that there has been little field
| for investment. There is always a mar
| ket for money in that section at low
rates of interest, but the conservative
| capitalist of the New England and
middle states of y score of years ago
is giving place to a younger generation
which is not content to place money
at three and four per cent when the di-
versifed interests of the west offer
so much larger inducements. BY this
lit must not be understood that these
eastern men of wealth are easy marks
who may be separated from their coin
upon the representation of the first
green goods man from Nevada who
crosses their trail. Many of these men
Learned their lesson, in frenzied wildcat
finance a decade ago when the wonder
full profits realized from the mines of
Cripple Creek made it possible to foat
almost any sort of a mining PROPOSE
ton to which the magic name was at
tached regardless of the location of
TERRITORY or the responsibility of the
mon whose names were written at
the bottom of the really artistic stock

.wamped at that time.

swamped at that time.
Zone food has been sufficient FOR
these gentlemen and having weathered
it they do not propose to get their feet
wet a second time This fact makes
it a stormy passage for the mining
shark who essays to maroon that coast,
but affords plain sailing for the iegiti-
mate promoter who has a property
worthy of development. That the tide
of investment is setting toward Gold
field is manifest by the many inquiries
which are daily being received here
regarding mining propositions, and by
the further fact that money from the
middle west and the east has been
and is now being utilized in the de-
velopment of our mines. Later on,
when the capitalist of those sections
returns from his summer outing, you
will see an influx of money here which
will result in the opening up of many
good properties."

once suffered by reason of the fact
that there was handy no plant to
which the original owner might go
with his ore and receive in return for
it a settlement that might put him on
his feet, and which, in many cases,
necessitated his either disposing OF,
or giving up a greater part of ms IN
terest or abandoning his claim. The
community that boasts 4 small redue-
ton plant is usually a prosperous one,
and especially if that plant is of sueh
a character that it may handle every
grade of ore. In the southwest and
the northwest, there are a number of
small shelters, handy To shippers. In
the southwest, now forging to the
front with such remarkable strides
as u producer of copper ores, 1t rs
possible for Il producer to reach a re-
duction plant without having to cross
..tortuous mountain ranges in order to
get TO the works of some smelter, eth
CIR public or private, where his ore
may be disposed of at small cost. To
encourage these small plants, is to
encourage, as stated at the outset, the
mining industry, and to place life IN
camps that have suffered from the
blight of lack of treatment facilities
for years.
As far back u thirty years ago,
there were prosperous camps d
teemed with prosperity. on ores of no
higher a grade than may be mined at
the present time, but which have been
idle for years, by reason of the clos
ing of the plant by opposition concerns
at greater distances, which have pur-
chased it for that purpose Ore and
Metals.

Say, stranger, a burro's a burrc
There's no gainsaying that fact
But a burro knows more N we think

Take him with the spotted sides
And his ears a hanging down;
He knows more in half a minute
Than half the galoots in town
I believe he's sort of human
From che way he brays at night;
FOR Oft have I stopped and listened
And ne 'er twice are his brays alike
And then he's sort of a giutton
With always an eye for his feed;
IT'S always easy to reach him
With bread or a dish of beans.
Talk about your camp robbers
He's the worst in all the land;
I'VE seen him swipe q slap-jack
From a red hot frying pan.
Sure 4 burro,s a sensitive creature
He seems to read your mind;
Just the time You want him
He's damn. damn hard to find.

Around tho fire Of night;
And if next days trip is a hard one
In The morning they're sure out OF

But should we intend to stay
A week or two in camp;
They are sure around IN the morning
And ne'er can you drive them away.
What puzzles me more thar the rest
Is how he can see without seeing.

REDUCTION PLANTS AND MINES.

Were it not for the reduction plants
of a public character, there would be
less mines in the world. The success
of mining lies in the reduction of ores.
The advent of u smelling or milling
plant marks the time when a nearby
district may commence the production
of ore. Some camps lie dormant for
the reason that they are remote from
reduction points. OF course, the educ
ton works must in all cases be suited
TO the ores mined-in some places 1T
ia amalgaanation, in others cyanide or
c~hiorination, in another a combination
of both, perhaps concentration, with
the concentrates shipped to a smelter,
or perhaps it is a smelter at a nearby
or distant point. In any event, the
closer the reduction plant, the cheaper
the treatment of the ore is or should
be, for the reason that the saving in
transportation charges should add
to the profits of the ores treated. The
closing of q reduction plant in any
community seriously affects that sec
tion-results in the shutting down of
| mines that cannot afford the luxury
of high railroad tariffs from mine to
mill. To encourage the building of re-
duction plants is to encourage the MIN
ing industry, and especially the small
| concerns, where the small shipper may
repair with his product and obtain Il
settlement immediately the ore is sam
| pied, and the controls assayed. Pros
pectors are hampered very often, by
reason of the fact that they have no
place to which they may GO with very
small lots of ore, and 80 are small,
individual owners. This may seem like
a very small thing, but all mines, no
matter ON what scale of magnitude
they may operate at the present time,
once passed through the same crisis
