Mohave County miner., 1906-03-17

Capt. w. J. Prout, Curtis H. Pyle
and c. H. Burlock returned last Sat
urday evening from the mines of the
San Diego Gold Mining and Milling
company, in the Union Pass section,
in which they are interested. In con-
versation with the MINER editor they
expressed themselves well pleased
with the present outlook of the mines
and believe they have some of the best
property in the Blue Ridge range.
Capt. Prout is a mining man of exper-
fence, having had charge of large min
ing operations in the northern coun-
try. This experience will be inval-
liable to the company in its present
undertaking. The mines are situated
about p miles west of Kingman and
in the best part of the Union Pass sec
ton. AT the present time a number
of mining companies are operating
there, which makes it convenient for
the new companies in the matter of
getting mail and supplies into the
camps. 1t is the intention of the San
Diego Gold mining company to open
the mines up as fast as possible and
put them on a pay basis.

Superintendent Spargo, of the En-
terprise company, was in Kingman
yesterday morning. He brought in
with him samples from a big strike of
lead ore made in the east drift from
the 100 level of the mine, which show
shipping values. The ore body is three
and One-half feet wide, one half of
which can be shipped to the smelters
without asserting. The work is being
carried into the new and more solid
ground to the east of the shaft and
depth is being gained rapidly. Major
w. A. Mensch, general manager of
the property, went out to the mines
yesterday and it is probable that he
will order the unwatering of the shaft
at once, and the resumption of sinking.
The shaft now stands at depth of 21S
feet.

Judge w. G. Blakely, accompanied
by J. C. Goodwin and Eli Hilty, this
week visited the mines south of town.
Many samples were taken and as soon
as assays have been made Mr. Blakely
will determine on the introduction of
a milling plant into that camp. There
is large amount of a nice grade of
milling ore in the mines lying east
and south of the Mcguire property
and it is expected that a small mill
could be made to pay handsomely
working this ore.

Several gentlemen who are inter-
ested in the San francisco mine have
gone to Cedar to maky an examination
of the property. The men are from
Sunbury, Pennsylvania. A party of
Pennsylvanians are expected at the
mine this week to look over the prop
erty.

The Lucky Boy mine has been bond
ed by company of gentlemen and as
soon as possible a company will be or
ganized to take over and work the
property. The mine is situated near
Chloride and has been a big producer
of gold and silver ore.

In the west drift, on the $50 level of
the De la Fountaine mine, at Stockton
Hill, a nice showing of lead-zinc ore
appears in the breast. The ore body
is about four feet wide. Specimens of
native copper is said to have made its
appearance in the ores in this drift.

Grant McKesson and John Schem-
melpfennig have a lease on the old
Jim Blaine mine, north of White Hills,
and are getting splendid ore. A ship
ment is to be made to the smelter this
week. The mine at one time produced
a great deal of rich silver-gold ore.

The Hoffman brothers will soon have
force of men at work on their recent
mining acquisition near Ivanpah. The

copper ore and is well situated for
economic work.

The 2. X. and X. p. mines, in IXL
Basin, are being unwatered and will
be examined by a mining man the
first of the week. These mines are
under bond to the Stockton Hill min
ing company, and are owned by ]. C.
Potts and L. Kimerly.
Mohave County miner., 1906-03-17

c. H. Burlock and C. H. Pyle have
gone to the Silver Creek country,
where they will make an examination
of the Mossback mine, owned by Mir.
Burlock. This mine has been sunk on
to the depth of 300 feet and is said to
be one of the best of the big veins of
that region. 1t is probable that it
will soon be unwatered and worked by
a good force of men.
Mohave County miner., 1906-03-17

The Samoan mine has made a nice
cleanup from its big shipment of ore
to the Needles smelter. The ore car
ried better values than any shipment
heretofore made by the Chloride Gold
mining company from the property.
The company will make regular ship
ments to the smelters hereafter.

Col. Thomas Ewing, vice president
of the Trans-Mississipp Mining Con-
gress, was in Kingman yesterday at
tending to important business. He
has been busily engaged the past two
months installing and putting in COM
mission the big mill at the Vivian
mine, a gold property below Gold
Roads, in which he is interested. Col.
Ewing is one of the foremost mining
men of America and has done much to
bring this territory to the front. On
all occasions he sings the praises of
the mines of Arizona and especially
Mohave county. His recent article
in the Daily Mining Record on the
mines and possibilities of the San
Francisco mining district has been
much commented on. He has in oper-
alton three groups of mines in the
country around Vivian and expects to
have them on a pay basis shortly.
The Vivian mill is in successful opera
tion and has large reserves of ore in
the mine to draw from.

Several townsites have already been
staked at Vontrigger, on the Barnwell
branch of the Santa Fe railroad, where
rich ore was recently discovered.
Miles of claims have been staked out
and the country bids fair to become
one of the best mining sections of
northeastern California.

The German-American mining COM
pany Is Preparing to start up its mill.
Roads have been built to connect all
the mines with the mill and contracts
have been let for the hauling of ore.
E. NJ. Carrow is fitting up big team
to haul ore to the mill and other teams
will probably be put on.

Report comes from Union Pass that
the Richardson's have made an import
ant strike on their o. K. mine. They
have driven a cross country drift into
the mine and are now drifting on the
vein. The ore body is large and the
showing of ore is especially promising.
Mohave County miner., 1906-03-17

Directors of the North Star mining
company are at White Hills looking
over their mining possessions. A. L.
McKesson, who recently disposed of
his White Hills mines to this company,
was out there this week showing the
visitors over the ground. The mines
were worked number of years ago by
Mr.. McKesson, who made a nice pile
of money from them. The low price
of silver finally caused cessation of
work and since that time little has
been done other than the annual work.

J. D. Jordan, superintendent of the
Mocking Bird mine, was in from that
property Thursday last. He reported
that the mines are showing up Won
derful bodies of rich ere and that the
well is producing considerable water.
Samples taken from across four feet of
vein in one of the mines gave result
of 10 ounces gold. Another sample of
six feet of ore gave a result of seven
ounces gold. Other samples ran from
ten to zoos. Work is progressing
nicely on the property and it is ex-
pected that one of the richest mines in
the county will be proved up.
DR.. L. D. Godshall, general manager
of the Arizona-Mexican Mining and
Smelling company, came up from
Needles Monday last and departed to
Stockton Hill the following day. Re
turning to Kingman Wednesday even
ing he exhibited specimens of silver
and lead ore that were the richest
seen in Kingman in many years. Some
of these specimens were masses of
native silver and even in the galena
specimens threads of wire silver were
interviewer. The ore streak is repre-
sented to be about three and one-half
feet and its value is reputed to be
about 500 ounces silver and three
ounces gold to the ton, which is con-
sidered a conservative estimate. AS
soon as pressing business permits DIR.
Godshall will put a large force of men
to work on the mine and mill and will
have the Stockton Hill camp one of

people wanted them there; he found
that resentment only was forthcoming
as a result of his attacks upon the in
tegrity of their representatives.
He goes back to the senate now to
mix with the men he has yillified. He
is finding them more companionable
among themselves than they are with
him. And it is predicted that when
his amendments to the railway rate
law come up he will learn that he
possesses little influence and few
friends in the movement One CORES
pondent puts it that his amendments
stand about as much show of being
seriously considered either by the com.
mittee on interstate commerce or by
the senate as. has the bill for govern
ment ownership of railroads which has
been introduced s'by request fifteen
times in the last two years.
Senator Dolliver, who, for some rea-
son, was spared from personal attack
by LaFollette during the season of
muck raking took the occasion Of the
last camp aign to tell the people of. this
state the truth about the Wisconsin
man. He referred to him as "this
travelling politician" and showed
wherein he had been misrepresenting
the republican members OF the senate
The result has been that LaFollette
gets little sympathy from the state of
Iowa.

FOLKS FINE SCHEME.

Kansas City Journal.-Judgin from
the tone of the democratic state press,
Governor Folk is riding for hard fall
in his plans to use the legislature to
build up a political machine for him
self III 1908. His plans include the pas
sage of an act to establish the Office
of state excise commissioner, to have
charge and control over all the saloons
in the state; state road commissions
er. with a complete department and as
sistant commissioners in each county
both commissioners to be appointed
by the governor; and an act giving the
governor power to remove sheriffs,
prosecuting attorneys, coroners and
other county officers at his discretion,
for neglect to perform their duties.
Combined with the executive appoint
ment and control over the police COM
missioners and coal oil inspectors,
these measures would enable the gov
ernor to build up machine which
would make him almost an absolute
dictator in his party. The old demo-
cratic machine that Folk so strenuous
ly denounced two years ago, which
made Office holding hereditary in Mis-.
souri,, was a mild and innocuous Sun
day school association compared to the
state subsidized army of politicians
whom Folk would control and use in
his campaign for the senate, If his
plans should carry.
The democratic newspapers over the
state, however, have come out strongly
in opposition to the plan, although
probably a majority of them are per-
sonally friendly to the governor. They
argue that it savors too much of zone
man power" and, as one of them OBJ
