the camp and many have already gone to other points, said he. '"The start ing up of the camp depends upon the condition of copper which seems to be getting back to its normal price as fast as possible. I shall be glad to see the work start up again.
 As far as I can see everything in q financial way over the country is getting back as fast as possible. I don't believe it will be long before matters will be moving along old lines and conditions permanently settled.
 As far as I can See fhings have not been near as bad as II mas been represented over the country. The crops in the middle west are abundant and prices exceptionally fine. There is plenty of money throughout the coun- try. but just now people are holding on simply waiting to see what the gen eral outcome will be. At the present price of copper it would seem that con- fidence will be restored everywhere and conditions generally brighten.
 Work at the Greene Gold Silver camp is making very satisfactory pro gress and moving along nicely. I see nothing in the way of forcing the work right along."-Douglas Dispatch.

capable of going down 2000 feet or
 more. The shaft now in use will have to be enlarged and reconstructed to
 meet the demands that will be placed
 upon it by the increased output from
 the mine. Other changes will be made
 in the surface plans of the company, one of which will be an entirley new milling plant and the substitution of filters in place of the present tankage system. When the contemplated changes have been made the mine and
 mill will be on the most economical
 basis of any property in the territory.
 A big force of men are at work lay ing the spur track from the main line ! of the Santa Fe to the power plant building. It is expected that this work will be completed today. The machinery for the plant is now on the road and will be assembled at once. The machinery already here will be unloaded at once at the plant. It is expected that the company will be ready to send juice" through the Gcldroad lines before the first of Feb ruary.
 The static machines at the Tennes- see mill. at Chloride. are ready to be put in commission. It is expected that these machines will take a thorough saving of zinc and lead values from the tailings at this property. Later ores will be taken from the mine and handled in this manner.
 Fred Brown is home again from a trip to the south end of the Wallapai mountains. where he made a number l..<-. 1nr vol hAa m silver. gold and lead. The vein is one of the largest in that section and Mir. Brown believes that with a small amount of development work it will become a large producer. Interested with MT. Brown in the find is Robert Hannigan, an old Comstock miner. The gentlemen will soon have men at work perfecting title to the claims.
 Dr. L. D. Godshall who made an ex- animation of the mining properties of the Arizona Mexican Mining and Smelling Company, returned from Stockton Hill last Saturday. He re- ports that a nice strike of ore was re- gently made on the Fortunatus mine. owned by himself. The property is situated at the north end of the old Cincinatti mine, near Layne Springs. In the adit drift there is a fine show ing of lead which also carries good values in gold and silver. The drift is being driven in on the vein and 1t is expected to open up nice back of ground in this way. At the New Lon don the old ore body was encountered in the lowr lvltetintoeorshHatod in the lower level. The old ore bodies in this mine carried good values in gold. silver and lead, and this new body is said to be quite as rich in these values as that encountered in the mine many years ago.
 While awaiting the arrival of timber with which to timber up the shaft on the r. K. mine, in IXL Basin. the force of miners have been kept at work running a crosscut from the bottom of the shaft and in so doing

THE M'kINNoN GROUP.

F. E.. Breed, who has arrived here from his group of claims in the Mount Union district, brought in some samples of a recent strike made by John McKinnon on the McKinnon group. located on the northern slope of Mount Union.
 The new find was made by McKin- non while engaged in doing the annual assessment work on one of his claims, The ore carries good values in gold and silver.
 Mir. Breed says that operations are being pushed on the group of mines purchased from him last year by J. w. Boileau. MT. Boileau is expected to arrive here from the east in a short time. He has informed his foreman by letter that initial operations in the construction of the proposed smelter on the Duke ranch win be inaugurated short time after his arrival here.
 Mir. Breed also stated that the min- CTS in his district expected that the construction of the proposed narrow gauge railroad from the mouth of the Poland tunnel to the Lookout mines will be commenced in a short time Journal Miner.

EXCERPT.

From time immemorial there had been law in Applegate, County War wick. England. to the effect that the mayor had the best of everything in town. and, for instance, one should say he had the best coat in the place he must add the words, Except the mayor"
 One day a stranger came to Apple gate and had dinner there at the inn After paying his bill he said to the landlord: I've had the best dinner in the country"
 The Landlord: Except the mayor
 The stranger: Except nothing,
 As result the tourist was called be- fore the magistrate and fined flO for for his breaking of the laws of the place. When the man had paid his fine. he looked around him and said. slowly: I'm the biggest fool in town. except the mayor"

Last Thursday without ostentation one of the greatest deals in the history of Mohave county was organized and put in shape to be closed some months later by the payment of large sums of mel ney to the owners of mining prop erty in and surrounding the great Mo Cracken mines says the Mohave County Miner The papers were signed and placed in escrow by the owners and initial payments made by J. n. Hubbard. for the Western Dew ,Icpment company. of Chicago. said to he backed by Armours and Pullmans. Jno. l.. Whitney made the preliminary examination and placed the property before the company. For several months he has had large force of men at the mines and a most thorough sampling of the properties has been made. It is understood that there are three million tons of twenty dollar ore in sight in the mines and that develop ment will more than double this showing The people receiving or benefitting by the payments made Thursday last are as follows: Mrs. Brooks and w. D. McCright, of Sig nal; H. A. De Reduo, Mrs. H. Lee Claire. Miss Mertle Smith and Mrs. and MT. W. H. Smith, of. Castenada Well; Mrs. Baker. of Phoenix: Thomas Lowell. of Searchlight, Nevada. After making the deal Messrs- Whit ney. Hubbard and Wm. E. Colby. de- parted to Yucca on the gasoline car provided for them by the railroad company It is understood that while MT Hubbard is at the mine arrange ments will be made for the improve ment for the wagon road from Yucca that autos can be run over it at high rate of speed. At present the speed of the machines is somewhat limited by bad spots in the road. although re- cent trip from the camp to Yucca was made in a little over two hours.
 It is quite likely that the company will soon have one of the largest forces at work on development of the property that can be conveniently handled. There are enough openings in all the properties for an immense force and this fact will be taken ad- vantage of. Machinery will be put in as soon as it is possible to get 1t on the ground and everything will be pushed as fast as men and money can push it.
 The company has obtained one of the greatest mines on the Pacific coast and the company taking it over being financially able to handle it will give to the world a magnificent min ing property.

COL. GREENE ON CONDITIONS.

Colonel w. c. Greene passed through Douglas Sunday night in his private car Verde. He was returning from Cananea, where he spent the past few days looking after his interests at the big camp.
 After stopping at Fl Paso for a few days he will go on to his camp at the Greene-Gold Silver property, where he will remain for few days before re- turning east.
 Col. Greene stated there was little to say regarding the camp at Cananea further than what had been made pub lie already.

HeALEy DEVELOPMENT CA.

Good reports continue to come in from the properties of the Healey De- velopment company. in the Turkey Creek district, where operations are under way on a small scale on a group of claims purchaed few months ago from Philip Healy. Three shafts are now down to d depth of 30. 40 and 45 feet, respectively. The pay streak is exposed in all of the shafts as well as in a number of other sur face openings, for a distance of 4,500 feet on the apex of the vein. J. M. McNeil of Pittsburg, Pa. who Is in- terested in the concern. brought in some samples from the claims, re- gently, which assayed high in lead. silver and gold.
 The company's holdings. consisting of eight claims, are located in the i'm mediate vicinity of Goodwin station. on the Prescott and Crown King stage road. In addition to the mineral rights the locations cover valuable timber and water rights.-Journal Miner.
