Bisbee daily review., 1908-01-28

The following article is clipped from Iron Ore. Mir. Hewitt. the edit or Is thoroughly acquainted with the Warren district, having made period ical examinations of 1t several times in the past and within recent year.
 Iron Ore has 1t from an authority which 1t considers reliable that Bis bee never looked so well in copper deposits as today. During the long time copper ores have been extracted from the B5sbee basin many million dollars worth of red metal have come up from the shafts, and millions upon millions have been earned. Just how many is not public property. The Copper Queen has done much with the profit of its mines and smelters. Railroads have been built, new min eral territories developed. town constructed. Millions have been ex- pended in other channels, and the pri- vate fortunes of the shareholders have steadily been increased. Could the entire story of the earnings of this magnificent company be present ed 1t would make highly interesting reading and cause wonder because oI the vast wealth taken from the mines.
 A smeltng plant located at Douglas, and recently completed by Copper Queen cost about five millions, we are told. It is the very latest and best that money could buy. And in all these years the Copper Queen company has not rushaS Us mining work, development having proceeded fTs 1.N-a.
 thought oF doing all the properties were capable of. It may be due to the coming of Calumet & Arizona that more than the ordinary energy has been displayed during the past few years, but there never was a time that the company could not have doubled it's output had it so desired. It evidently did not so desire in the twenty-seven years it has been min ing, and this is also true of Calumet & Arizona. Of the persistency of the deposits thera seems to be no question among those who have noted the progress of work ilere.
 Great interest eenters in the mines -of Superior & Pittsburg, where de- yelopment work has been under way for several years. Many grew tired d waiting, for many are not familiar with the time required to sink deep shafts, unwater large areas, open up the ground and drifts, equip shafts with hoisting and pumping machinery and do a thousand things necessary to the finding and opening bf mines. Calumet & Arizona made a phenomi. nal record in speed of finding its ores and converting them into dividends. The history of the copper business shows none other such hasty per. formance. It led many to think that Superior & Pittsburg should do equal ly as well, they forgetting that the latter wsre opening a tract of land ten times larger than Calumet & Ari. zona possessed And Calumet & Ari

It went through a large amount of leached ores, just as Superior & Pitts burg mners have been doing. If fol. lowed a little seam of ore at times no larger than your hand, this final
