Hest times l has experienced in many years. This will be the ship ping point for Che Vulture, and that alone will bo considerable business in way The entire Vulture district will take on new life, and the probabilities are that other good mines will Do opened up in the district.
 It is understood that entirely new methods will be employed in the development of the property. Greater depth will be. gained as rapidly as possible and the dan gers in the old pits will be elimi- mated.
 The greatest depth attained in the mine is about 240 feet, but the two great pits, with their innumer- able drifts and tunnels, give silent testimony of the enormous amount of ore that has been run through the old mill. Thousands of tons of workable ore are piled on the waste dump, but it is said to be rich enough to pay well if worked by modern methods. The old mill with its eighty stamps, falling about in confusion, the building weather-beaten and forlorn look ing, the monstrous fy-wheel in the engine room, all attest to the van ished glory of bygone days. The big hy.wheel alone is something to marvel about when one considers that it was hauled with great difficulty from the Colorado river, oyer 100 miles of Apache-infested desert.
 Fot many years during the su- perintendency of E. l.. Elmore, Ramon Valencia, now a resident of Wickenburg, was a trusted em- ploye of the company and accom- panied Elmore on all occasions. He made secret trips to Phoenix with the bars of bullions, and while there was in constant danger of rob- bery. Mir. Valencia was fortunate enough to avoid trouble. Some time after the departure of Elmore, Captain Cyrus Grible, an English man, assumed charge of the affairs of the mine, and here opened a bloody chapter in the history of the Vulture. The history of the Crib ble murder is still fresh in the memory of many of the old resi- dents of Arizona and practically marked the close of the palmy days of the town. Litigation soon got in its deadly work and for about twenty years the camp has been idle with the exception of the an nual assessment work and the treatment of some of the tailings.
 The revival of the Vulture should be a cause for great rejoicing in Wickenburg, and the celebration of the occasion with a big barbecue or in some other appropriate man her would be entirely in keeping with the importance of the event -Wickenburg Miner.

Old vuIture Mine to Resume.

The transfer of the Vulture mine to Boston syndicate for a half million dollars has just been closed in the city of Chicago. The i'm portance of the deal is not so much the Rockefeller price paid for it, but the fact that the syndicate will begin at once to expend another half million on the property to put 1t in shape for active operation and development, means more to Wick enburg and this section of the ter rit0ry than any other deal could possibly mean. For years it has been the hope of Wickonburg that the troubles of the Vulture would be settled and the old mine started up again. Now our fondest hopes are realized and once more the merry roar of the stamps and the whir of the hoists will be music to the ears of those who have waited patiently and hoped.
 D. J. Curry has been busy this week taking inventory of the effects at the mine, and it may be assumed that no pleasanter task could fall to him than that of putting the finishing touches on the details on this end of the line.
 The fact that the deal was about to be closed was given out by the Miner a few weeks ago, and many who read the article seemed to Ihlnk the news was too good to be true. But there is now no reason m the world to doubt that big things will soon be doing, and that "lckenburg will witness the live.

MIR. LAWSON is MAD.

Mr. Thomas Lawson is mad all
over and all through. Because the
people of this country refused to ac-
cept him for other than what he is,
he ostentatiously bids farewell to
virtue and announces his return to
vice. Here is some OF his pictur-
esque language as given publicity in
his official magazine:
"You talk of what | owe the peo-
pie. What do | owe the gelatlne-
spined shrimps? What have the SAT-
fron-blooded apes done for me or
mine that | should halt any decisions
to match their lightning change, ten
a5ove-ten-below-zero chameleon
hued, loyalty? I" Today the peo-
pie are preparing to hustle to the
town pump the man who has done
more for them and more to their
enemies than any other since Lincoln
paid for his efforts for the people
with his life, and all because the
Systems slime-brained press that
told the yellow-flushcd spanlels that
the temporary absence of pie and
sherbert from the peoples dinner
pail Is due to Roosevelt's pursuit of
the scabbiest pack OF he-wolves that
ever harried a civilized people. The
people, The people!"
Dear dear! How dreadful! But
that's what the people get for not
permitting Mr.. Lawson to fool them.

The Production OF Gold.

Some time not long since, Inv
Chronicle published editorially the
sold and silver production OF our
state and territories.
Following are some figures as to
the gold production OF the world,
which will prove Of interest:
According to the Engineering and
Mining Journal, the 1907 output was
s4O3,229,735, as against S4O5,931.-
23O in 1905. The decade ending in
1906 was marked by a yearly in
crease, last year being tho first in
which the figures declined since
1906. y"
The production OF 1907, although
less than that OF 1906, shows an in
crease of $2AS1I9S1 over 1905,
The Transyaal was the leading
producer, and shows large increase
namely $12S,75O,OOO in 1907.
against 9,6Os,S73 in 1905.
The United States Is second, with
a production of sS9,616,O17, or So
95S,71O less than in the preceding
year.
Australia produced $75,143,71S, a
decrease OF $7,093,610.
Russ!a's figures are not very roll
able but the output seems to have
been s21,5OO,OOO or s919,432 less
than 1906.
Mexico increased It's production
from S16,6S9,S5O to $17250,OOO.
Canada's production fell from
$12023,O32 to $9,5OO,OO0.
China, Japan and Corca are cred
tied with $11,5OO,OOO.
Rhodesia is credited with s11,-
100000, India with $10,090,00O,
West Africa with s5,62O,OOO, and
other countries with $4,000. 0Qes
The Transvaal, Rhodesia, Mexico.
West Africa and other countries"
alone show increases.
No new gold fields were found in
1907.
As to output by continents, Africa
is found to have produced $147500,-
900; Asia, s44,OOO,OOO; Australia,
s75,250.0OO, and North America
s12O,5OO,OOO.
The states and territories that are
producers Of gold in the United
States we're Colorado, with S20,SSS,-
S33; Alaska, with $1S,251,61O; CAL
ifornia, with $17,39AG6S; Nevada,
with $t4,70465S Arizona. Monta-
ma, Utah and South Dakota pro-
duced quantities exceeding $4,000
900 and under $5,000,000.
The decreased production in the
United States is attributed partly to
labor troubles, partly to the fire in
the Homestake mine, and In part to
a slump in the price of metals which
give gold as by-product. causing

For District Attorney.

Henry S. Bishop, the present IN,
cumbent of the office of district at.
torney, announces his candidacy for
reelection in this issue Of the Daily
Panhandle.
Mr., Bishop is well known to the
voters Of the district, having been
thrice elected by them to the office
he now holds. He has resided in the
Panhandle for fifteen years and
Amarillo has been his home for the
past five years. He graduated in
the law department OF the Univer-
sity of Texas and soon after assumed
the duties of his present office. Thus
practically all Of his time, since his
admittance to the bar, has been de-
voted to the district-to a careful
study of the conditions and needs
of the district with reference to le-
gal interests. 1t Is therefore but
natural to conclude that he is now
better prepared than heretofore to
render efficient and competent SER
vice as district attorney. Until re-
Gently the office Of district attorney
paid barely enough to insure a re-
spectacle living for an economical
single man (not to speak Of a fam
ily.) Under the new law it is a sala-
rled office and worth having. Mr..
Bishops friends believe that since he

elected he will continue in a fair,
