While this average is probably
rather higher than a rigid analysis
would sustain, it is a candid calcula-
ton from data furnished by the sworn
tax statements.

ais occurring with copper.
They all do it-eFerywhere.
It is injurious in more ways than
one to all the legitimate interests of
mining to have exaggerated and mis-
leading stories circulated concerning
the output and value of mines and dis
tricts. Such stories seldom originate
with the responsible management of
mines. They are told and written by
people who do not understand what
they are talking about and they are
printed by papers which for the most
part desire to print only the truth
but whose editors haven't time nor
the means directly at hand to analyze
closely every story sent to their
desks.
The greatest harm in the way Of
misleading statements comes from the
fool writer's of mining prospectuses.
No mine in the Country has been
made the basis OF so many picturesque
and eompendious lies by fool writers
of mining prospectuses as the United
Verde of Yavapai county, Arizona
Those self-complacent literary swine
have flooded the country with stories
to the effect, "a that it is the great
est mine in the world; (2) that Sena-
ator Clark, the principal owner, de-
rives a profit of a million a month
from it; and go that the raw ore as
it comes from the mine carries a gold
value of 81 a ton which pays the
whole expense of recovering the sill
yer and copper-all of which is per
fectly correct except that it isn't the
bigges mine in the world nor within
cannon shot of being the biggest even
in Arizona that it doesn't earn a
profit of even half a million a month,
ana l0dJ the Fdiue u the BO4u III luS
raw ore averages only about 80 cents
a ton.
1t is astonishing to find how many
generally well informed and candid
mining men even in Arizona-even in
YaYapai ty-unrefectively believe
and repeat those groundless tales
about the United Verde, which are
only irresponsible camp gossip, when
little analysis would show their
screaming absurdity-aIl of which
anyone may figure out for himself
from the sworn Arizona tax state
ment to which the penalty of perjury
attaches for false swearing besides a
heavy money penalty.
The plain, simple truth, If they
knew how to illuminate it, would
serve the purpose of the foolish pros
pectus writer's a great deal better
than the shrieking falsehoods they

OF public coal lands and other fuel
sections by the government. declar-
ing that the government should re-
tain the title to these natural resourc-

should control the western pasture
lands. He asked for an immediate

The biggest sensation of the present

this afternoon when Senator Fred

and widely known throughout the
state. announced his resignation from
the steering committee appointed by
the Republican caucus yesteday af-

Senator Parks declares that Chair
man Vivian, of the state republican
committee. Gov. Buchtel and the re-
publican party leaders of the state,
are not in favor of the passage of a
good railroad bill, n bill that Will
serve the interests of the citizens of
Colorado.
Te charges that Gov. Buchtel, Wv
ian and others are attempting to
work a makeshift bill through the
legislature that will be wholly bene-
fetal to the railroad corporations OF
the state and detrimental to the peo-
pie of Colorado.
Senator Parks said in part:
Neither Governor Buchtel, nor
Vivian or any of the big party lead
ers want a good railroad commits

sons refuse to act on this steer

roads. at every turn and watching
their interests carefully. He declar-
ed that the Republican governor be-
lieved that if he could get a make
