Los Angeles herald., 1906-12-10
STATE ASSOCIATION
OF CALIFORNIA MINERS

On the last day of the annual con-
vention of the California Miners asso-
citation, held at San Francisco, the fol-
lowing officers were elected without op-
position: President, William G. Rails
ton of San Francisco; vice president,
Charles H. Dunton, El Dorado; treas
urer, John Hendy, San Francisco. The
secretary will be chosen by the eXecu-
tive board, which will be appointed by
President Ralston.
BY resolution the convention for re-
lief in hydraulic mining asked that the
California legislature pass bill au-
thorizing the governor to appoint a
commission for the purpose of ascer-
tanning the amount of unworked gold
bearing gravel deposits in the state,
the amount of ground to be moved, the
approximate amount Of gold contained
therein and an estimate OF the extent
and value of such deposits.
The convention indorsed the mineral
lands bill and urged it's immediate
passage. 1t also requests the California
delegation in congress to secure the
necessary legislation to have a new
segregation of the mineral lands OF the
public domain in this state.
To obviate vexatious litigation and
excessive cost the convention urges the
amendment of the Revised Statutes of
the United States so that all patents for
mineral lands shall contain the date of
the location of the claim.
A change is desired In the Code of
Civil Procedure so that the owner of a
mine may bond 1t, or enter into a
working agreement and still be able. to
protect himself and his property
against liens for labor and material
for which he is not responsible.

DIRECTOR ROBERTS ON
THE MINING OUTLOOK

Booming" is the way Director
George E. Roberts of the United States
mint describes conditions in the min
ing regions of the west. Roberts re-
Gently returned to Washington city
from a trip to Denver, Salt Lake, Ne
vada and San Francisco.
The enormous gold development In
Nevada and the remarkable discover
les Of copper were especially remarked
by Roberts. 1.-The rush of people to
Nevada is astonishing" he said.
This years production of gold In the
Nevada field, Mr.. Roberts says, will
about double that of last year and the
1907 production will double that of 1905.
In 1905 Nevada produced about $780,
900 in gold. This calendar year the
production will run to $40, 900, 900 or $11,-
100000. The 1907 production is likely
to go far above $2O,OOOOOO. in Roberts
opinion.
Cripple Creek district is generally
thought by experienced miners to have
reached its highest point. Last years
output from Cripple Creek was about
$26 900, 900. Goldheld Is the present
center of gold mining operations In Ne
vada. AS Mr.. Roberts describes it,
there is feverish activity in the entire
region.
Not less interesting than the valu-
able discoveries OF gold in Nevada are
copper discoveries. "It is asserted by
men who are competent to judge" "
said Roberts, that a copper region has
been discovered In Southern California
that viii rival the Butte district"

SEAL OF COLD
NEAR MAYFLOWER
SENSATIONAL STRIKE IN THE
DALE DISTRICT
$500 Ore Struck in Gold Mine in RIv-
erside County-Ma ayfIower and
Other Companies Highly
EIated

One of the finest properties near the
group of Mayfiower mines in River
side county, Cal, is the Seal of Gold,
formerly the old o. K. mine. This mine
is equipped with a 100000 reduction
plant and has been pounding away for
twelve years on ore that has averaged
close to $40 a ton. Early last week the
Seal of Gold company made the biggest
strike ever made in the Dale district,
cross-cutting ledge at the 650-foot
level that assays over $500 to the ton.
On the Eldorado Consolidation claim,
No. H. adjoining the HIayflower mine,
Superintendent Joseph Dutch cut into
a ledge last Friday at the 250-foot
level that will assay over $1100 to the
ton. The Mayflower people are much
elated over these two great strikes
made on both sides of their property
and expect the same results when they
reach the same levels. The deepest
shaft of the Mayfiower group at the
present time Is only 1856 feet and at
that depth the ore carries values ex-
ceeding $S1 ton.
Mayffower Development Plans
The development work on the May
flower has consumed thirteen years
time, involving an expenditure of close
to $25, 900, and today every shaft in the
group touches ore of very good quality.
The sale of the limited block of stock
in the Mayhower is progressing very
nicely, and the company hopes to have
reduction works in operation within
ninety days, having placed orders for
a 22-horse power air compressor plant
and two Standard walls. The main
shaft will have a 32-horse power hoist,
carrying four buckets, self-dumping
apparatus, and will be .ouble-geared
and double brake Two 250-horse-
power engines will furnish power for
the stamps and concentrator. An cleo
tric generator will furnish light for the
reduction works and the mine.
Capt. John White, superintendent,
will leave for the Ma lower mines
Wednesday with force Of men to sink
the main shaft to lower levels and to
make preparations for the installation
of the reduction works.

BLOCKS OF NATIVE COPPER
Sections 14x1e Feet Taken Out Of
the Famous Michigan
Mine

A press telegram states that large
mass of copper is being extracted from
it's encasing rock at the sixth level on
the branch vein in the Michigan mine
near Calumet About twenty-eight tons
OF copper have been cut off from the
mass and the end is not yet In sight
A piece about fourteen by eighteen
feet and six inches thick is now being
detached for hoisting. 1t will weigh
thirty tons. There is no way of tell
ing how much more copper remains.
The Michigan mine was famous the
