Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1906-12-20

The past week has shown de-
cided increase of ore produced in
the Baxter Springs mining camp,
although the shipments were not
up to the previous weeks because
of a lack of cars to ship the ore.
While only four cars were ship.
ped during the past week there
were sixteen cars sold and ready
for shipment. The failure to get
cars to ship ore in and the failure
to get them for shipping coal in
to the camp has retarded pro-
gress and held back an increased
showing which wonld have been
very marked.
However, there has been a de-
cided change for the better in
spite of the disadvantage and the
number of sales reported are very
much on the increase. lola, Kas.

boiler and 6-inch Emerson pump
installed, and have started the
work Of sinking their shaft
deeper.
William Copp purchased the
first lease on a forty.acre tract
lust north of the independence.
The Rush and Elder are again
operating and are able to handle
their water, and are drifting on
their property.
The owners Of the Busy Bee
sold one-half interest to Il. +.
Whitlock and his associates of

A shaft is being started OH the
Norton & Haskell land just north
of the Catholic school. The work
is being done by lola parties.
The number of strangers in the
camp is taxing the capacity OF
the hotels, as we'll as the livery
stables to carry them to the min
ing camp.
The Irish Maid, under the
management of w. X. Jacobs
has commenced the installation
of boilers and pumps, and will
build a derrick and other neces-
sary equipments to start the mine
up on a larger scale than ever
before.
H. J. Millar made a sale last
week of 100 acres belonging to
William Thompson, to Cook,
DR.. L. Cox, H. NJ. Heckart and
d. NJ. Diffenderffer, all of Spring
field, Mo. These gentlemen will
begin active development of this
property at once.
The Mckinley mine, which
has been idle for some time past
installing boilers and a new 5
inch Emerson pump, have again
started up the work of sinking
and drifting. The work is in
charge of Mr.. A. Mckinley, who
has had charge of the mine since
il was first opened up.
The Monon Mine which has
been shut down for some time
has again started up, and the
work of drifting in both shafts
will be commenced, and it is ex-
pected they will he able to supply
the mill with dirt to keep it
steadily in operation.
J. w. Watson, manager of the
famous Hobo mine, has bought a
new 1O0-horse power boiler for
the property, and as soon as it is
installed will add two more steam
drills to the present equipment.
The Hobo is going to make
mighty big outputs after the
new machinery is added.

purchased the forty acras south
of the Rush & Elder, and also,

larger scale than ever before at
tempted. The deal has not yet
gone far enough to give the de-
tails to the public, but option
money has been paid and II is a
certainty that the deal will be
consummated.
II is understood that a contract
for a mill will be let by the Cat
Inns, on their property east OF the
Indiana; a contract will be let for
a mill on the Good Luck; the
Mission is now preparing the es-
Inmates for their new 50O-ton mill
to which a second unit OF the
same capacity will be added later
and il is understood work will
commence early in January; and
the Merritt mine has a mill
bought and will commence at
once the installation of the same.
Several more properties are now
nearly ready to let contracts for
mills and they will no doubt an
nounce the same within the next
few weeks.
NJ. S. Parker, mining engineer,
has just completed the survey OF
the Mission Mining Company's
property, showing the under
ground development, the top inn
provements, and the location OF
the new 1OOO-ton mill, which will
be erected at once, just to the
southwest of the present mill,
half way between shaft No. ? and
shaft No. 3. A large two COM
partment shaft 8 feet wide by II
feet long is to be sunk at the new
mill site. This shaft is to be
equipped with a high gallows
frame, carrying two cages, which
will handle two ton cars.
This company has just received
its new 6-inch Worthington pump,
which will be placed in the south
west shaft as its permanent sta
ton, as all the mine will be
drained to this point. The work
of setting this pump required the
shooting up of a big space in the
stope and the ore encountered in
this sinking has proven to be
wonderfully rich in zinc and lead
all the way down. A great deal
of work is being done on this
property preparing it for the big
mill which is going to be built.
Several of the mining machinery
houses have had their represent
atives here this week figuring
with this company on the plans
and specifications and submitting
their bids on the different kinds
and styles of equipment.
From what can be learned this
big installation is to be the most
modern mill ever equipped i'll the
entire southwest district and will
be built with the object of hand
ling the immense deposite of ore
in its property at the least possi-
BILE expense. Installing substan-
tial machinery and equipping for
a large tonnage means a large
saving in operating expenses and
an increase in pro-
fits from a given umount of ore
milled.

Big Output Of Ore. bur Not
Much Loaded. Owing 10
Sear0ify Of Cars = Much
New Development I'm Our
Mining District.

The ore sales from the Baxter
Springs camp were plenty large
enough last week, but the amour,
of ore loaded out was not large
on account of the scarcity of cars
Only a small portion of the ore
sold was loaded out, and at the
present time there must be al
least twenty car loads of ore in
the bins of the camp. The price
is very satisfactory. AT the Mis-
sion there are about three cal
loads of ore, three at the M. X,
& T., four at the Eastman, two
at the Strong Bow, one at the
Omaha, two at the Old Abe, two
at the Joanna, one at the Hobo
and two at the Kramer-Morse.
But the work of development
goes steadily on. The Car short
age will not always last. In all
parts of the camp there is much
activity manifest, and before
spring several new producers will
be brought in. Several New
plants will be built this winter
and during the early spring, and
by the time the good weather
sets in the Baxter Springs camp
will be well up to the front in the
way of production. Should the
winter prove to BE- al open one
the work OF development will not
stop at all.

Held Up Freight Train.

Little Rock, March 1. Sheriff KavaAaugh held up a freight train in the Iron Mountain yards in Argenta Friday night and at- tached 200 head of cattle which were being shipped from Port land, Ark, to St. Louis.

The Coming Prima ".

The necessity for a white pri-' mary came about years ago when election to office required of the candidate that he contribute to- ward or assist in the payment of poll taxes. The vote SO pur- chased represented the balance of power between two candidates and it's practice made city poll tics corrupt.
 The present movement for a white primary is g revolt of the tax payers and best citizens of Newport against this system and to place the city administration in ra4 baads of the people who have most at stake, and the in- terests of the town most at heart.
 The importance of the Ques- tions to be dealt with in the next two years, made the reform urgent and created the public sentiment behind the movement for a white primary and an ad- ministration by good business men. Now that the people are aroused there is little doubt of the success of the primary.
 It is not a manifestation of Ill feeling against the honest coIored voter, and cannot be 50 constru- ed. But it is a refusal upon the part of the white citizenship to allow the offices of this city to be allotted to the candidate will ing to put up for the poll taxes of one to two hundred negro voters.
 It is right and until the evil IS corrected by wise legislation, it has doubtless come to stay.

IRRIGATION BY PUMPING
W. A. Fleming Jones Writes of
Conditions in Vicinity of Las
Cruces.

Irrigation by pumping from
the rivers nndertiow is success
down in the vicinity of Las Cru
ces. In support OF that asser-
ton, the editor takes the liberty
of publishing the following ex-
tract from letter from Attorney
w. A. Fleming Jones. with the
hope that il may give an addi-
tional impulse 10 the movement
here:
II knew that the Socorro Irri-
cation company had struck water
in their we'll, as i faithfully read
the Chieftain, but it was simply
a mathematical calculation and
anyone can get water on any
part of the land in the valley,
that is, lower than the first
bench. Down here on every
ranch, very nearly, you will find
such we'll, equipped with either
gasoline engine OF windmill.
The water u there all the
time and il is simply a matter
of raising il to the surface. /
yesterday purchased eight acres
more adjoining my own place
and am going TO install my own
irrigation plant, and be independ-
ent OF the acequias. I hope that
the example of the Socorro Irri-
cation Company will be general
ly followed throughout the val
ley in the neighbourhood of So
corro, and that aall the Bohem-
ianS, when they start to food
your section, will install similar
plants. have seen these peo-
