A SOUTHERN DEMOCRAT

Senator Culberson has been chosen the minority leader of the senate, as was expected and many conservative democrats are mentioning his name in connection with the democratic nomin- ation for the presidency. A well known Washington correspondent has the fol lowing to say of Culberson and the proposition of southern democrat for the democratic nomination:
 The southern people are standing in their own light. It is altogether mis- taken notion of southern democrats that no southern man can bring out the full democratic vote of the northern and eastern states. Culberson is the very man who could unite the party, especial ly in New York, and so it would be in every eastern and northern state. If the south at heart really wants south ern man, let it take one of national rep utation as a patriot and statesman like Culbersop. He has been loyal to every democratic ticket No faction would have the slightest excuse to oppose him and no excuse would be sought for the excellent reason that he has gained the respect and admiration of all classes of democrats everywhere as progressive democrat, possessed of safe and reliable qualities of leadership, with which he

DESPONDENT MAN SENDS \ BULLET
 THROUGH HEART
J. w MITCHELL OF TUCSON, IN BaOODING OVER BUSINESS TROUBLES, SENDS A BULLET THROUGH HIS HEART.

Downhearted and discouraged from business troubles and financial worries, James w. Mitchell of Tucson about 2 o clock last Saturday afternoon while riding over the trail to his mine in the Cebibella mountains, drew .45-caliber revolver from it's holster in his belt and sent a bullet tearing through his heart, death following almost instantly.
 Mitchell, in company with l.. B.. Moore and J, B. Wright, left Tucson early Saturday morning on horseback to go to Mitchell's mine in the noun tains east of that city. It was while riding through the Cebibellas that he killed himself, never uttering word to his friends in explanation.
 During the entire trip Mitchell was morose and gloomy, seldom speaking n word to either of his companions unless he was spoken to directly by one of them. However, he had never intimat- ed that he had contemplated killing him. self, and such an act was the furtherest thing from the minds of either of his companions.
 It was about clock in the after noon, while riding slightly ahead of Moore and Wright, that Mitchell whip ped the revolver from his pocket and before either of the other men could move to prevent him, he placed the gun against his left breast, sending the bull let through his heart.
 After the shot the body pitched head lonly from the horse to the ground, and the last spark of life had died away by the time his two friends had reached his side.
 Ths body was placed on the dead man s horse and the return trip to Tue son was begun at once, Moore and Wright aSriving in Tucson last Sunday night with their gruesome burden.
 Mitchell was 47 years old and had resided in Tucson. It is the firm beliet of his friends that his rash act was due to business and financial worries

 Chinipas in the Sierra Madre. just
 across the state line from southern
 Sonora. Chinipas is not a pretty
 town, though it Is beautifully loca
 ted on the Chinipas river, nestling
 close up to the east side of the west
 range of the Sierra Madre. The
 town Is more than two hundred years old, but the country around
 Is practically new so far as develop
 ment Is concerned. With the ex- ception of the famous old Palma
 rejo mine, there Is no we'll devel- oped mine in the immediate vicin- ity. The Palmarejo is about four
 teen miles from Chinipas, and the
 mill at which the rich silver ore Is treated Is located at Zapote, on the river about one and half miles below Chinipas. On a narrow gauge railroad twelve and a half miles, which Is a continuation of rock cuts and tunnels, the ore is brought from the mine at Palma rejo to the mill at Zapote, the donkey" engine, with its train of nine or ten cars, making four trips every twenty four hours, two by day and two by night. The mine, mill and railroad are the property of the Palnarejo- Mexican Goldfield, Limited, an English corporation. The engine, cars, rails and iron ties were packed mule back across the mountains from Mi6aca, Chihua- hua, soon after the Englishmen acquired the property. The ma- chinery for the mill was brought in the same way. The English company acquired the property about twenty years ago, after hay ing been worked by Mexicans for about seventy-fve years. One of the early owners of the mine was Manuel Avon, from whom mine and land was purchased seventy five years ago by Miguel Urea. After MT. Urea died the property was worked many years by his widow, Dona Agustina Urea. from whom it was purchased by the En- glishmen about twenty years ago. By the London people several mil- lions of pounds were expended in development work, mill construc- tion, water ditches and fumes, railroad building and other im- provements, since the completion of which mine and mill have been worked on large scale, and many millions of doltars in rich meta have been taken out The supply of ore seems to be inexhautible, and four times day the ore train makes its trips between mine and mill, seven days week. A few months ago new superintendent, MT. Frank Holmes, from England, was placed in charge of the prop erty.

 A couple of hours ride from Chi nipas is the White Chief mire, owned by the White Chief Mining company, California capitalists. The mine is all antig'ta, a gold silver property. and has been owned by the present company about seven years. A 15-stahnp mill Is in operation, to which the ore is hauled over a tramway one and one-eighth miles. Fifty men are employed in mine and mill and from fifteen to twenty tons of ore are treated daily. Mir. l.. T. Pock- man Is manager and Mir. Frank Brodle Is superintendent.
 Out from Guadalupe Mir. Luis Aldaco owns a property that is said to be exceptionally rich. Like the others it is a quicksilver prospect. Mir. Aldaco is government mining agent for the Chinipas district, d position he has held for the past ten years and one that keeps him in constant touch with all mining operations in the district. You might live and die in the Sierra Madre," said Mir. Aldaco, "and you you'd never see more promising prospect than mine"
 Major J. NJ. Thomas of Chicago has denounced two gold silver claims about seven hours ride north of Chinipas. They are the San Jose and the Futuria. On one he has q shaft 3 feet deep and on the other two tunnels about 20 feet each. He is highly elated over the showing. Recently Major Thomas has adquired exploration rights on the Porcachic ranch property out from Guadalupe.
 About one and a half days ride almost west of Chinapas, Messrs. John SlemeDs, Migual Hidalgo, Jesus CabaIlero and Jesus Valen- zuela own q gold and silver pro- pect that is generally reputed to be exceedingly rich.
 Mir. L. Peter Tracy owns the Gold Cup and Golden Crown claim, both gold properties, about thirty miles southeast of Chinipas. The ore is free milling and Mir. Tracy has been prospecting the claims for about a year.
