A farmers Union was organized
in Yankton County last week with
. membership cf 80. This is the
only way for the farmers to better
their conditions, 1t is impossible
to fight the big trusts single hand
ed; but with united forces. The
inhabitants OF large cities, the
working classes have organized
unions 10 better their conditions,
and by means of these unions he.-
Ter wages and days arrived and We
believe that the farmer ought to
do the same. While the farmers
condition and environment is a
little different from that of Il e
city workman, yet by forming a
Union, he could to good proper
ton, in case of being offered a
low price for his product, hold
back and demand a little better
price, for such organizations as
unions do not spring forth into ex
istence spontaneously, or by chan
ce. but by pressure of circumstan-
|ces.

River Mill Started Up.

Superintendent Gracey celebrated Thanksgiving day by starting up 10 of the 25 stamps at the river mill on Te- chatticup ore. The mine is six miles distant and there are 400 to 800 tons on the dump. The milling of this ore, Is therefore stated, is largely on the experimental order. As the ore is sulphide, much of the success will de. pend on the values of the concentrate, !, which have not yet been tested. Also the fuel problem is important. Now wood is used, but that is scarce ar ticle, the supply being almost wholly of the drift wood variety that prime, pally comes down the river during high water. Hence it is proba ble that the plant will need to be altered to may be secured at the mine, suggest ing the removal of some of the stamps to that point. At the present site, on the river bank, there is little if any ground for tailings.
 It is confidently hoped by other mine owners in that vicinity, that this plant will ultimately be available for custom work, therefore all of the details en- tering into the present experimental runs, are being watched with close in terest. Also no doubt is felt but that Mr. Gracey will solve the question of the most economical reduction in a manner that, at least, will serve as pattern which others will be quick to adopt in the erection of other plants Scar ,hlight Bulletin.
 Within the next few days the Ari- z na Copper Belt Mining company will put a force of men to work on the Wren group of four claims in the Black Rock district near Wickenburg The claims give much promise, and the management expects good results. Recently nine tons of ore was shipped to the shelter from the Wren group, which netted profit of 4l50S after all expenses had been figured. The ue run 10 per cent copper, the rest of the value being gold. Later the company will start work on the Texas group ,f four claims in the same district. If development work shows satisfactory results, machinery will be ordered and installed at once. Both groups al looked upon by mining men as the most promising in the Black Rock dis trict.-Arizona Republican.

Quartette Cyanide Plant.

The new cyanide plant to work the pig Quartette dump will be on the 250- ton order and should be in place by the latter part of February. These Lailings have been the envy of many cyanide concerns but the mlne officials nave resisted all offers and will attend to the reduction themselves. They Ire non-committal as to values ana quantity, but a concensus of outside estimates place the bulk weight al close to 9O,000 tons and per ton value of 4.5O$. Gold and silver will probab- ly run ia the ratio of two to one. It is re mark lbly free from copper and lead and he Ice is considered an ideal prop osition of the kind.-Searcnligh Bulle- ii .

No Suspension of Assessment Work.

Many mine owners throughout this county, and for that matter through out the mining states, have been anx- iously awaiting the assembling of con- gress, in the belief that that body would pass some measure that might relieve them of the necessity of doing the annual work on their mining claims this year. Yesterday morning the editor of the MINER received a message from Congressman Mark A. Smith, which dissipates alt hope in that direction. The message reads as follows:
 Washington, D. C., Dec. 5, 1907.
 To Anson H. Smith, Kingman, Ari- zona:-Impossible to pass bill this year. Committees not selected; much opposition. Inform the people.
 MARK A. SMITH.
 A. M. Wamble, of New York, a mining man of experience, who was in Kingman few months ago, writing to Thomas Devine, of Hotel Beale, makes the statement that the mines oI Arizona are experiencing wide atten lion in the mining world. He says that the fact that Arizona mines paid more dividends last year than all the mines of California and Colorado con- bined has set people to thinking in the right direction and the results will be beneficial to the mining interests of the territory. Where there are 50 many dividend paying mines there are sure to be found many more and men with money can easily be induced 10 invest in country where copper and gold mines can be brought into the producing class in less than two years. Mr. Wamble will return to Kingman shortly after the holidays to reman. some time.

Stories have been published about alleged business depression and gloom in Butte on account of the curtailment of copper production and the conse- ouent reduction of the number of men employed in the mines. There is any, thing but gloom apparent in Butte, and no sign of business depression is yet in evidence. Notwithstanding the fact that the Butte mines are at pres ent producing but little more than one-fourth of the normal amount of copper, the reduction of the working force has not been in the same propor- tion and the monthly pay roll amount t. more than 6J0,0OOS. With the ex- ,eption of the suspended State Savings bank all the banks of Butte are paying cash to everybody that calls for it, and they are shipping cash to every one of their country bank correspondents who ask for it. It is doubtful if there are any banks in the country so sub- stantlal as those of Butte, and but for the fact that eastern banks have re- fused to snip money on deposit with them belonging to the State Savings and other Butte banks it would not have been necessary for the State sav- ing b Ink to suspend. Local conditions did not cause the suspension.
 rUr more than month there has oeen no cnange in the mining situa- tion, except for the further curtail- nent al the Coalition mines. The other computes are producing as they Iid month ago.

George B. Ayers yesterday brought in the usual weekly bar of bullion from the Gold Road mill. He says that production will be maintained until some time after the first of the year and if no settlement of the differences existing between the shareholders of the company is affected there will be shutdown of the property for an in- definite time. The shutting down of this great property will not only be a blow to Mohave county, but to the whole territory, as it is now one of the largest gold producing mines on the Pacific coast.

The leasers on the Vanderbilt mine at Cerbat have shipped carload of rich ore to the shelter. The ore is a lead sulphide carrying high values in gold. There are several thousand tons of ore in sight in the mine and it is probable that this will be stopped out.

No Statehood This Session.

Mark Smith, delegate to Congress from Arizona, is credited with the state nent that he believes there will be n statehood legislation at this ses- sion of congress, but that at the con- vening of the next congress, after the pre- ,idential election shall have pass ed, it is q lite probable that New Mexico and Arizona will have enabl- ing acts passed and that within two years both territories will come in as states of the union.
 A rich strike is said to have been made in the Clara property, Bill Will Hams Fork The mine is some dis tance from Cunningham Pass and has been worked the past year by a small force of men. The new strike on the mine carries high values in gold.
 The metals are running low in tfe markets of this country. Thursday quotations of zinc were 4.5O to 4.55 in the New York market, while lead was down to 400 to 40. Copper was quo- ted at B for casting. The stringency of the money market is one of the causes, but it is expected that after the first of the year the market will become more bouyant and prices will take an upward trend.

At the Victor Gold mining company's plant, near Vivian, things are shaping up for the placing of the big mill in commission at an early date. The plant is to be one of the most complete ever erected in the territory and will be capable of handling a big. tonnage of ore. It is expected that the saving of values will be very high, the auto- matic cyanide plant being one of the most complete on the coast.
