Mines and Mining Stocks

any trouble to mine 1000 tons, or more
than that every day without straining
nerve. Granting that to be true we have
got to acknowledge that the only reason
management does not feel like shooting
out the copper at present prices. If Utah
Copper is worth $50 a share, Newhouse has
no business to be selling at less than SIS
under any condition When a person
marches through workings in a mine that
discloses ore bodies from 100 to 200 feet
wide and 900 to 200 feet long; when he
sees conditions of this kind exposed on
level after level for 400 feet In vertical
depth; when he knows that the ore goes
both up and down from such a zone and
sees II with his own eyes; when he I'M
dertakes TO figure what that means In
tons, II IS nearly enough to take his
breath away. When he realizes that all
this ore is Of much better average grade
than the big porphyry mines can boast of,
and when he sees equipment and milling
plants that make it certain that the cop
per can be produced at just as low cost
as anybody in the world can produce It,
he must realize that the mine is not TO
blame for the price of the stock.
NOW. L want to say something about
the stories that have been circulated to
the effect that the rich chalcopyrite bodies
that make SO lavishly on the 800 level and
above have been lost on the 100 and 800
levels. This is altogether untrue. On the
700 level ] went through a body of ore
that has been developed to a width of
about 100 feet. In this are rigs OF rich ore
and the mass will likely average per cent
copper. The cross-cut has not yet been
driven far enough to cut the
rich body opened on the 800 level but
l would not be afraid to stake my exist
enee that II will be cut. What is true of
the 100 level is more than true of the 800.
where still less work has been done; but
they will get il there, also.
THE showing I'm that mine IS a marvel
Gus one, and every month that the prop
erty is worked for years to come will add
to its worth. I was Informed that prep
arations were about completed to resume
sinking again and Mr.. Moffat stated that
the shaft would never stop until the Loo
level was reached. And You can bet your
last penny that II VIII still show ore when
that level has been gained. I don't care
what the stock does; l don't care what
Newhouse does; the ore is in the Cactus,
and, sonoer or later, the property is go
ing to aStonish the world with its produc-
ton and profits. If that isn't strong
enough, draw any sort Of picture you
like, the mine can stand it"

 A temporary organization for the parent body has been effected, with an executive committee composed of Paul Maull, Holtville, Roy Rumsey Fl Centro; C. w. McCollum, Calexico: George Varney, Imperial, and Tom Ed gar, Brawley

TIME OF CLOSING MAILS.

The mail clerk on the Imperial Val ley trains makes complaint of the large amount of mail which is handed into his car at El Centro, and which he has to cancel and distribute be- tween this point and Imperial. This is probably due to misapprehension amongst the general public as to the time of closing mails at the Bl Centro postoflice; and as the office is thus losing a large amount in cancellations which it should have, and which should be credited to this postoffice in the general reports, The Press gives herewith a schedule of the arrival and departure of mails here. Especially heavy is the mail carried by individ1- als to the car for the early morning train; but all mail dropped into the postofTice up to 5:54 a. m. will leave on the morning train.

INTER-COUNTY ROAD,
San Diego's Engineer Proposes Change
 of Route From Jacumba.

At recent meeting of the San Diego Highway Commission, Chief Engineer Cooke submitted a report concerning the east and west road between San Diego and Imperial Valley, in which he said that on that part between Jacum- ba and Imperial he feels satisfied that far better route can be selected than the old one, which now runs through Devils canyon. He said that a better grade can be secured and that the cost would be less by selecting a route he proposes through Devils canyon and concerning which he will make a more thorough report after careful in vestigation. Engineer Cooke said it is matter that will require careful con- sideration on account of the difficulty of going through the desert country, and because of the roughness of the mountain country. His recommenda- tion that there be several changes in locating the Imperial highway, says the Union, was upheld by the board of commission
 After hearing the report the com missioners authorized Engineer Cooke to procure all the material and the nec- essary assistance in the way of a crew of men, and to go ahead with the work of determining which route will make the best road. The engineer was also instructed to prepare estimates of cost in connection with the preliminary sur vey and to start the ball rolling at the earliest opportunity

BARELY ON THE MAP.

A subscriber residing In Idaho writes
to ask the name Of Polk county'a
State Senator. Bless your soul, brother,
Polk county has no State Senator. 1t
used to have one, but was deprived Of
that official by the grace Of Newt Hart
and the last oregon Legislature. Polk
has only half Of Senator now, and
that half lives In Benton county.
Time was when the county had a
Senator and half That was In the
days when Old Polk was recognized
as factor In the state political game,
and was represented In the Legislature
by men who made 1t their business to
see that their county was the gamer
by addition instead OF a loser by
subtraction.
Polk County will not be permitted to
choose a senator at the coming cleo
tlon. The county is now in a joint
district with Benton, and A. J. John
son, the Corvallis banker and hold
over Senator, will represent both
counties until the year 1910. Two
years hence, we may possibly be per
mitted TO name the Senator--but not
now. Polk county, ls.not exactly off
the political map OF Oregon, but 1t is
the next thing to 1t.

The County Court asks the newspap-
ers Of the county to submit bids for
publishing the notice OF tax sale. The
OBSERVER, for one, must decline with
thanks. None Of the expense Of this
sale will come out OF the county treas
ury, and we see no reason why we
should cut our prices and put our
skilled workmen and valuable
machinery at the disposal OF a few
people who have been slow in digging
up their taxes. When this paper has
any good things to hand out, 1t will
give them to It's friends and Gus
toners, and not TO little bunch Of
strangers and residents, OF whom
IL knows little and cares less. Then,
again, the tax sale notice this year is
80 small that bidding on It would be
good deal like asking the local gro
Gerry merchants to submit sealed bids
for furnishing five pounds Of beans
and peck Of potatoes for the editors
household. No, thank you, gentle
men. The OBSERVER does not care to
scrap over especially when
the bone has no meat on 1t. III any
paper offers bid, It will have to be
one that needs money worse than this
shop needs It.

Judge Coad and Commissioners
Riddell and Teal are entitled to much
credit for the way they have handled
the county's financial affairs In the
last year. The low tax levy will be
gratefully appreciated by every tax
payer, and yet it has been made
sufficiently high to provide for every
important public improvement and
keep Polk county Ia the ranks Of the
progressive counties of Oregon.
That's the kind OF good work that
counts.
