rich SILVER
STRIKE MADE
in YAVAPAl
Turkey Creek District In North.
ern County Scene of Finding
Pay Sreak Running BAT
Ounces to Ton.

PRESCOTT. March 20.-News OF
what promises TO be among the most
important silver strikes made in this
county in recent years reached here
Yesterday from the Turkey Creek
district. where John Gender uncover
ed a paystreak last week that sam
pies SAT ounces of silver to the ton.
The ore shoot shows a thickness OF
thee feet, all high grade. the rich
streak referred to averaging foot
in thickness.
A ton of S47-ounCe ore is now ON
the dump ready for shipment, besides
two tons of a lower grade that would
be considered very high grade ore in
other properties. The ledge shows
a width of 40 feet in a crosscut tun-
mel where the find was made. The
vein matter is so soft that no drill
steel is used to sink holes, this be-
ing done by augur.
Fifteen years ago R. H. Row, now
mining in the Mineral Point dis
trict. discovered float rock very rich
in silver at the scene OF Condors
discovery. He ran an open cut into
the hin in hope of striking the orig
in of the silver rock and abandoned
the claim aAIcI IuHHIIS 2hbCSA 49,
Last summer, Gender arrived here
from Goldfeld, Nevada. and was at
tracted to the Turkey Creek district
where he settled with his family.
He found some rich silver feat fur
Their up the hill from where Row
ran the open cut years before. He
cleaned out the open cut and push
ed a crosscut tunnel in on the vein.
Twenty feet farther ahead he en-
countered an ore shoot three feet
in thickness, carrying what he be
1ieved copper values. On closer ex-
animation he found native silver in
in the rock and started wtnze in
the tunnel At a depth of ten feet
in the winZe the ore body shows
three feet in width, with an appar-
ent increase in the values, which he
found on assaying to be principally
silver.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
ON DEVELOPMENTS
MADEIRA Company Will Erect
Plant If Operations Show
Such Plan Is Justified BY
Property.

TUCSON, March 20.-H. E. Brandt,
ecretary-treasurer of the MADEIRA
Mining company, operating group of
Is claims about 40 miles south of
Tucson, has been in the city tais
week completing the arrangements for
a continuation of development work
on the tunnel which is being driven
a distance of 100 feet to cut the ledge
at depth of more than 1000 feet
Mr.. Brandt stated yesterday that
contract for the work had been let
and the result of this particular de-
velopment will determine the future
operations of the company, as to the
ground, or the shipment of the ore
to some convenient smelter.
The MADEIRA Mining company was
incorporated under the laws of this
territory last November, with CAPT
tai stock Of $4,000 900 divided into
100000 shares with a par value Of
one dollar The officers are J. Hoff-
man, president, Naco, Arizona; A.
Erickson, vice president, Naco, Arr
IONA; H. E. Brandt, secretary and
treasurer, Los Angeles. The direc-
tors selected at the first annual meet
ing include J. Hoffman, A. Erickson,
w. P. Ascot, H. E. Brandt, F. Gille-
len. L. Lemieux, T. e. Magee. Branch
officers of the company are main
tanned at 612 Grant building, Los
Angeles.
The property this company owns
and, controls consists of 16 full claims
adjoining in one group, and these ag-
gregate 20 acres, situated in the San
Ia Rita mountains, Santa Cruz coun-
ty, just under Old Badly peak, which
is at an elevation OF 10000 feet, and
30 miles south of Tucson.
The formations, indications and out
| crops are the same as found in the
I best copper camps, and the location is
/ ideal, at least half of the best claims
being situated on the largest ledge.
The ledge is 5 feet wide on the sur
1 face, and can be traced for about /
mile on the property. Assays made
: from average samples from this
ledge taken 10 feet below tae sur
face went S22 per ton in gold, silver
and copper. This ledge is impregnat
ed with bornite and chalcopyrite
growing richer in depth.

pounds. The restriction in smelling
operations in Utah shut on consider
able production from that source.
Butte only produced S.4S0.000 pounds
which largely represented the product
Of the Boston a Montana company.
Canada was able TO DO about t.000,'
coo pounds better than last year, as 8
year ago severe winter weather con-
ditions fnterfered with production.
The only Canadian sources OF copper
supply at the present time are from
the CRANKY. the Trail smelter and a
production az the rate of 100000
pounds per aanum from the Interna-
tional Nickel company mines at Sud
bury.
Mexico Is now producing about 81
oo0.e00 pounds of copper per month,
against a normal production OF be-
tween 100000 and 100000
pounds This decrease is largely due
to the complete shut down of the
Greene-Cananea.
On March ], the Washoe smelter of
the Amalgamated resumed operations
and this resumption should add about
100000 pounds to the output for
March.

BOSTON, March 19.--For the first
time since Col Greene was succeeded
by the Cole-Ryan interests and his pet
mine taken over into the Greene-Cana-
nea Co, a report has been issued con
corning the operations of the Greene
Consolidated. This report covers a
period Of fS months, but at that the
stockholders will not find much real
comfort in it
On the face the report SHOWS a net
profit of s3,220,000 but when we dig
into it it is seen that the sale of stock
In the Cananea Central and the Sierra
Madre Co. swelled the receipts by 49,
$50, 900 and that the actual mining prof
its were conspicuous by their absence
showing a loss of s15S, 269.
This deficit Is arrived at by deduct
ing the total earnings on copper, gold
silver and miscellaneous revenues
amounting 10 s11, 36s,3s7 from the to-
tai expenditures and sundry expenses
amounting to s11,518,65

referring to the 81 per cent of the
stock of the Sierra Madre Land &
Lumber company owned by the Cana
nea Consolidated Copper company,
your company had advanced large
sums to the lumber company; and, as

large advances would be necessary, n
was deemed wise to retire from this

The company received an average

FOR STATE SENATOR.

In announcing nay candidacy
for the office of State Senator on

per that the voters of the Thrift
eth District should understand
my position upon the POLITICAL
questions in which we are aIi

Ga national issues / am in full
accord with the policies Of the

believe that the convention at
Chicago has acted wisely in NOM
mating a man for President who
is so eninently qualified to con

The progressive movement in
politics begun under the leader
ship of Robert NJ LaFollette to
secure to the people the advarta-
ges Of representative government
in fact and the enactment Of laws
for the control Of public service

culable value to the state and
has attracted the attention Of
the entire American people. TO
strengthen and perpetuate these
laws and to guard against their

I believe in the Primary Elec-
ton Law, and would aid il
