opment slows sufficient ore to re-
quire q mill the same will be con-
structed another season.
The recent sale of the Black
Queen mine, near Crystal, is sal
to mean much for that district,
from the fact that this old mine is
now to be systematically operated
and developed. In our judgement
this is the only thing needed to
make 1t one of the greatest mines
in the state, as also one of the
richest. The vein ana ore condi-
tions here are similar to those
/ found in the great Mollie Gibson,
a mine near Aspen, and with simi-
lar development it is believed like
results will follow. Thousands of
tons of high grade shipping ore
has already been produced from
the surface workings aud prartic-
ally the whole dump been milled
ut profit. We trust that the new
company will get down to practical
mining and go after the ore in q
business like manner us is done in
Leadville and Aspen.
The North Pole property is now
said to be in the hands of people
who are not afraid to spend their
MONEY md we trust they have

competent management, whereby
good results may be anticipated

which are tributary to this place,

that there is enough work in sight

a tunnel on a ledge further up the
hillside some high grade ore has
been taken Last year two car
loads Of ore taken from the latter
tunnel were shipped to Ell Paso,
and returned two thousand dollars,
the values being in copper, gold
and silver. Between the two tun-
nels a shaft is now being sunk to
prospect another ledge. When
down one hundred feet a drift will
be run on the vein. As the drift
will follow the vein into the hill,
additional depth will be acquired
in drifting.
The mill at the Gringo gold

MORE MIN ES.
Mentioned by the Patagonia Cores
pondent OF "The Oasis"


three carloads of high grade copper
ore from the Three RS mine will
be hauled to town in a few days
for shipment. The ore was mined
from a crosscut in the tunnel, in
about 140 feet. The rock is a
quartz porphyry, impregnated with
and literally streaked with copper
glance. The Three Rs has all the
ear marks of a mine of great
magnitude. 1t is about nine miles
from Patagonia, in the Patagonia
mountains, southeast of town.
Through that section passes a great
mineralized zone of quartz por-
phyry, about twelve hundred feet
wide and extending clear across
the Patagonia range. On this zone
the Three Rs group of claims is To-
Gated. The tunnel was driven into
the quartz-porphyry 100 feet, the
greater part of that distance being
in rock carrying good values.
Numerous drifts were run from
either side of the tunnel, all in
rock carrying good values, some
times in high grade, streaked with
copper glance. Considerable work
has also been done on the Three Rs
claim of the group, tunnel having
been run into the hill 270 feet
(crosscut), in ore nearly all the
way. About ninety feet of it is a
good grade of ore. The Three Rs
seems to have the one great re-
quisite of big mine-plenty of ore
to insure heavy tonnage and of
a quality to pay good dividends
When fully developed and opened
up to its capacity, it promises to
occupy a place in the same class
with the mines of Bisbee and Can
anea. The claims are owned by
R. r. Richardson and Frederick
Olsen of Patagonia, Mr.. Richard
son owning thirteen-sixteenths and
Mr.. Olsen three-sixteenths.
Adjoining the Three Rs group OH
the south is the Bonanza group of
twelve claims, owned by NJ. G. R.
Manwarring and E. F. Bahlinger
and Fielder Slocum. The latter is
another mechanic at Leadville
camp, in Cochise county and the
other two are prospecting the
claims. The Bonanza group is on
the same zone as the Three r.
They have not yet commenced any
permanent work, but are putting
in few shafts here and there on
the surface, prospecting for tun.
mel site. The rock is all impreg-
mated with white iron and shows
copper in the form of black
sulphides. All the surface rock
shows the result of teaching.
West of the Three Rs group and
adjoining, is the Wild Horse group,
six claims owned by Henry Grey
W. G. Grey and Frederick Olsen.
They have tunnel in fifty feet
and are now sinking Wine, which
is down twenty-five feet. Here
too, is the same quartz-porphyry
encountered on the other claims
mentioned, all showing copper.
The Buena Vista group, fifteen
claims owned by Richard Fleischel
of Nogales, adjoin the Bonanza
group on the west. These claims
are just off the quartz-porphyry
zone on which the others are To-
Gated and cover a couple of cross
lodges from which some high grade
ore has been taken. Through these

Receipts Of States From National
Forests.

Announcement has just been
made of the amounts which each
state containing National Forests
will receive under the new law
giving 25 per cent of the gross re-
ceipts from forests to these states.
The total amounts to 90 to these
states, from the receipts of the fiscal
year which ended June 80, is SAT-, )
O63.79.
The amounts to go to each state
state or territory are: Alaska,
$2,6S4.7S; Arizona, $42, 1904; Ar
kansas, $313.6S; California, $751;
4377S; Colorado, $50.955.67 Idaho,
$50, 307.S4 Kansas, $643.55; Mon
tana, $75,S07 Al; Nebraska, ST.
34977; Nevada, $4,577.95; New
Mexico, $25, 464.12; Oklahoma,
$554.4S; Oregon, $32,313.52; South
Dakota, IS, 1880; Utah, $32.151.02
(including Uinta Indian refund of
$5,34S.0O; Washington, $1S,032.79,
and Wyoming, SAL ,402.3S.
The law requires that this money
be expended upon public roads and
schools by the counties which con-
tain National Forest land. In
this way the counties are compen-
stated for the reduction of taxable
area brought about by the existence
of the forests.
Before this year the states have
received 10 per cent Of the gross
receipts, but congress voted last
winter to increase the amount to
% per cent.

They (the iron moulders) have,

their entire organization is serious

Nineteen years after expressing
the foregoing views, Mr.. Sard /

The following is his statement at

have thought it was to the interest

rather than discourages union;sm. ;"
