Colorado Output in 1906.

Statistics collected by the United
States Geological Survey show that
Colorado still outranks any other
state or territory in the union. includ-
ing Alaska. in the production of the
precious metals. despite the fact that
the gold production of the state in 1906
fell short nearly 81 100000 of that of
1905. the precise figures being, output
$23.2 ,G29, decrease sl,S13.344.
More than ha,f of the total gold of
the state is derived from the telluride
veins of Cripple Creek in Teller county.
San Miguel free milling ores contribute
nearly s2.500,000 The smelling ores
of Leadville. in Lake county. yielded
81 100000 and the partly free milling
Gilpin county ores over 81 900 900 San
Juan county and Ouray county both
closely approached the mllion-dollar
mark. Important diminution in the out
put is recorded in Teller and Ouray
counties, but this was partly offset by
gains in San Miguel and other coun-
ties. SiliceouS and dry ores formed
GI per cent of the total tonnage and
were the source of over sc per cent of
the gold product The placer output
is comparatively small The outlook
for 1907 does not indicate the prob.
ability of great increase. If any.
The production of silver, 1221f,S2O
ounces, showed an increase of 717.523
ounces. The smelling ores of Lake
county led in the output. with nearly
100000 ounces. while in their order
Pitkin. San Miguel, Mineral. San Juan.
Ouray. and Clear Creek counties are
next in importance, the first three ey-
ceeding the million mark. A higher
price increased the value of the pro
duct. The increase is due chiefly to
the veins of San Juan, San Miguel. and
Mineral counties. On the other hand.
the yield of the Leadville and Aspen
deposits diminished

Torrens Act Uphe ID.

Denver.-Vast property rights iI
the state are affected by an important
law which the Supreme CouIr an
nounced Monday was valid. This is
the Colorado land title law also
known as the .'Torrens act" passed
by the Legislature in 1908. The de-
cision of the court was unanimous. not
a single point upon which its consti
tutionality was attacked being held
tenable.
The case came up from the District
Court of Logan county. ii was bruught
by Judge Quitman Brown of sterling
on behalf of S. A. Smith against Miss
Ella Crissman. the county clerk and
recorder who was eX-otficio registrar
of titles. The action was dismissed
by Judge Armour, who held the law
constitutional. and an appeal was
taken to the Supreme Court.
The Torrens law provides for the
registration of real estate with the
county recorder without the formali1y
OF abstract transfers. Upon proper ap-
plication and proof OF title the recorder
issues guarantee policy setting forth
that the person described is the law
full owner OF the property the policy
covers In transfers the policy goes
with the warranty deed and the change
Of ownership is indorsed on the back.
For recording the transfer a nominal
fee is charged and the expense of alb
stract examinations and extensions en-
tirely done away with. The general
adoption of the plan will result in the
abolition Of the abstract trust
State Senator Edward T. Taylor of
Glenwood Springs was the author OF
the Torrens land law. and when the
case was argued some time ago be-
fore the Supreme Court he assisted
the attorney generals Office in defend.
ing its constitutionality.

The low-Grade Problem.

The low-grade problem, briefly
stated. is this: To handle as large
tonnage as possible with the least
expense and the largest saving of val
ues to the ton. This means thought at
both ends. Where that thought has
been properly educated. intelligently
directed and backed with financial
courage. the result has been steady div
idends in Colorado and elsewhere. In
fact, nine-tenths of the present gold
product of the world, estimated at
SioO. 600. .0O0 for 1907, would be effec-
lively marked off were it not for the
low grade progress of the past ten
years. Free milling surface deposits.
whether placer or lode. are generally
short-lived. The mines that last are
the more or less rebellious producers
where science. skill and persistence
are the factors that lead to success.
The recent conversion of the Cripple
Greek mill trust from 'all the traffic
Will bear" to the modern low grade
basis is worthy of note AS Calico
once said: 1T moves 1t moyes'"-

Improved Baggage System.

Denver.-Favorable reports are be
ing made concerning the new baggage
system put into effect by some of the
railroads at Denver a few months ago.
This system permits the purchaser Of
a coupon ticket at any station where
they are sold, to check his baggage to
actual destination. For instance, a
man in Chicago coming to Denver. may
check his baggage to certain resi-.
dence here and have it delivered with
out being held over till his arrival
If he stops week en- route there are
no storage charges to pay, and the sys-
TEN obviates to certain extent the
danger of lost baggage. The plan op-
crates on the Union Pacific road in
Chicago. St. Louis, Omaha. Kansas
City. Denver, Salt Lake, Ogden. Butter.
Spokane. Portland. San Francisco and
Los Angeles.
1t is likely that this plan, which or
iginated in the West with Andrew
Traynor. general baggage agent of the
Union Pacific, will revolutionize the
manner of handling baggage on all
railroads in due time 1t insures the
travelling public against much annoy
ance and bother with checking The
regular transfer and delivery charges
are of course paid by the passenger,
but 1t is all done in advance when the
ticket is purchased

California's 1906 Output.

In 1906. for the first time in many
years, placer mining county leads in
the gold output of California. Butte
county having produced more than
$4,000, 900 Nevada county is next,
with about $1,000. 600. and is closely
followed by Amador. The output of
Calaveras. Tuolomne and Yuba coun-
ties also exceeded the million dollar
mark.
The total gold production of the state
in 1906 amounted to $lS,732452, or
S1s6,093 less than the production in
1908. OF this total ST,375 925 was
placer gold, Of which $5,09S ,359 was re-
covered by dredging operations. Gold
recovered from copper ores contributed
about 100000 10 the output.
Increased production was shown
only by Butte. Sacramento, Shasta, and
luba counties, and Yuba was for the
first time heavy producer OF
d:edged gold, Labor troubles in some
of the quartz mining counties in 1907
are likely to diminish still further the
production OF the deep mines.
The silver production of the state is
not large-l.2 .220. .641 ounces-but shows
an increase of l44.467 ounces, due to
heavier copper production in Shasta
county.

Tall Chimney Must Go.

Before another six months have
passed the famous Grant smelter
smoke stack, ranking among the high
est in the world and one of the city's
landmarks, Will have disappeared. The
American Smelling and Refining Com
pany, the owners of the immense
structure, has sold 1t together with all
the other buildings Of the plant and
the machinery. to the Denver Metal
Company, of which Samuel Grimes is
the manager. and as soon as the
weather permits the work Of dis
mantling the stack and the rest Of the
immense plant will be begun
Several months will pass before ac-
tual work on the stack will be begun.
as the preparations for the work Will
consume considerable time. The stack
Is 3J2 feet high and at its base is
wide enough TO permit the turning of 4
two-horse team hitched 10 an ordinary
sized wagon. The bricks contained in
II are said TO be worth the price which
the Denver Metal Company is re
ported to have paid for the entire
smelter plant and its machinery The
price is said to be s25 900
The stack. which lately has served
as station for wireless telegraph
system, was built in 1892 and was CON
stantly in use until the smelter work
ers' strike four years ago, 1t had be
come one Of the sights of the city and
was always pointed out to strangers
who visited Denver
The site of the Grant smelter, it is
rumored, will be bought for the
SchwarZschild Sulzberger Packing
Company of Chicago. which will con
struct a large packing plant there.
The Omaha and Grant smelter was
built in 1883. II was in one sense the
outgrowth of the Grant smelter built
at Leadville in 1878 when that place
first became an ore producing camp of
Importance, and which was badly dam
aged by fire in May. 1882.
It's name was derived from that of
its manager, James b. Grant. who was
from the beginning identified with its
control and management
From the time its fires were started
in 1883 the Omaha and Grant smelter
had produced up to the close Of 1900

Alaska Treadweli Mine.

The first stamp mill in Alaska was
erected in 1883 in Silver Bow basin
cnd soon afterwdrd John Treadwell
built five-stamp testing plant on the
Paris Creek lode and organized the
Treadwell Gold Mining Company. In
1884 the company erected its first mill
OF l20 stamps. which has since been
enlarged to 1900 stamps. with better
saving values year by year. The aver
age value of Treadwell ore is 81 20 per
ton. The cost of mining and milling,
with office expenses at San Francisco
New York and London added, is 81 %
to the ton, leaving a balance of sG92,-
2o9 for the years work. The company
follows the safe plan-known as amor
tization-for the preservation of its as
sets and the eXtinguishment of its debt
to the original subscribers. In the last
annual report a balance of s44S.493
was written off. while the four quar-
ierly dividends footed up 1878 900 The
Tomboy Gold Mines Company al Tellu-
ride accomplishes this purpose by ex-
pending each year a generous sum for
additional territory on the trend OF its
