Upon the west side of the caion
two tunnels have been run toward
the third ledge. The more north

as Cerro Prieto, Sultana and Minas

tanned there would not be surpris-
ing should they occur in these
properties. Upon its ordinary ores
the Santa Rosalia was worked pro.
htably through a long period, and
its rich bonanzas were windfalls
that raised profits beyond all ex-
pectation. The
PRESENT WORKINGS
are near the north end of Los
Janos, but a few hundred feet south
of the road to Las Chispas, in a
narrow cafion which debouches
into the main cafion followed by
that road. This canon passes be-
tween the second and third lodges.
From the cafion two tunnels are
run eastward cutting the second
ledge within thirty feet, about sixty
feet below the groupings. From
large samples weighing fifty pounds
or more taken In the nrst tunnel L
obtained an assay that yielded
$3.50 gold per ton and seven and
one half ounces in silver. Another
fifty pound chunk, taken out at my
second visit, yielded an assay of
$l4.20 gold and eight ounces silver.
From the second tunnel took a
mixed sample that yielded $3.50 in
gold and 244 ounces of silver per
ton. Upon the first ledge there
has been no work done, but large
pieces of float, weighing 100 pounds
or more, that have come from that
ledge, have yielded assays made
by Mr.. Fitch, at Cerro Prieto
that went as high as 200 ounces
The oasis. [volume] (Arizola, Ariz.) 1893-1920, 1908-08-01

on the north end of the property
there is great cross ledge, about
twenty feet in width, the groupings
of which have shown values in
gold and silver under laboratory
tests. 1t is likely that good ore
bodies, rich in value, will be found
at the intersection of this ledge
with the smaller ones traversing
the property lengthwise; and on
the same levels as the present
workings they will be considerably
deeper, as the surface rises very
abruptly from the site of the work
ings to the cross ledge.
THE ORES
extracted with present develop
ment consist principally of iron
arsenates and sulphurets, carrying
good values in gold and silver,
with some lead and a little copper.
They are soft and friable, crushed
easily and concentrated readily,
With very simple machinery they
can be concentrated three to four
tons into one, producing a high
grade concentrate that would pay
handsomely to ship to smelters,
realizing large profits and making
the enterprise a gilt edged invest
ment. And there is a possibility
that in prosecuting development
and operation there will be en-.
countered bodies of high grade
sulphurets, like those found in the
Santa Rosalia mine, not far dis
tant, that yielded several carload:
of ore that each netted in value
more than twenty thousand dollars
in gold per carload. The form
alton and character of the ores are
very similar to those at SAINTS
Rosalia, and the same results at

Mining U onelllHS 70. /
Dear Sir: In accordance with |
engagement by you have made
a careful examination OF the mines
of the company of which You are
the official head, (having made two
visits to the property and beside
/ have made careful investigation
of the affairs of the company, from
which ! have the honor to present
the following report, in which |
have embodied the suggestions re-
Quested regarding future opera
tions: The
LOCATION
of the properties is in the Municip.
ality of Cucurpe, in the Magdalena
district of the State of Sonora, Re-
public of Mexico, and they lie very
close to the southern boundary of
the district. They are about ten
miles northeast from the town of
Tuape, which is in the Ures dis.
trict, and they are about forty
miles from Querobabi station. on
the line of the Sonora railway,
which is about ninety miles south
from the international bound
airy at Nogales. From Querobabi
there is a good wagon road to
Tuape. From that point travel is
over good trail that passes the
north end of the property and is
the highway used in transportation
between the railway at Querobabi
and the famous mines at Las
Chispas, beyond the Sonora river.
Large pack trains OF several hun
dred mules each, bearing rich ores
and concentrates from Las Chispas
to the railway station pass the
camp frequently. Over a good
wagon road from Magdalena, about
seventy miles distant, machinery
and supplies can be transported
right to the tunnel entrance on the
properties. The
HOLDINGS
OF the company embrace % perten-
encias of mining ground, (about
sixty-fve acres and they include
two continuous announcements,
Los Janos" ten pertenencias, and
the Guerrero" eighteen pertenen-
Cias. Los Janos is 200 metres wide
1850 feet) and 500 metres long;
The Guerrero is 200 metres wide
and 900 metres long. Taken over
all the length of the two denounce'
ments is 4,500 feet-nearly one
nile. AS more fully described
hereinafter there extend through
Los Janos no less than seven good
mineral bearing ledges, which unite
In one great ledge in the Guerrero
property. The general direction il

approaching tno louSt uooCtlUou
with the broad, perpendicular crop
ping in the canon, being in the
vein casing already. Sinking a
further depth of twenty feet ought
to cut the ledge and show good re-
suits. From the fifth ledge in the
series l took a heavy fifty pound
chunk of the surface ore that as
sayed $40 gold and twenty-nine
ounces silver. From the sixth ledge
| got large chunk fully as heavy
as any of the rest that gave assays
of $40 gold, and 27 6-10 ounces
silver. From the groupings on the
seventh ledge | brought a large
chunk that assayed SIS gold and
212 ounces in silver per ton. Some
of these assays were made by
Charles Taylor others by Godfrey
Hughes, two of the best assayers in
these parts. Their certificates are
appended to and made a part of
this report. Assays from large
samples taken by Mr.. J. w. Baw-
den who sent them to Mark Wan
less, noted assayer at Hermosillo,
have shown well also. If possible
| shall get Mr.. Wanless's certi6-
Gates and incorporate the same in
this report. For
DEVELOPMENT WORK
| would recommend that the shaft
that is mentioned hereinbefore be
carried down to depth of 200 feet.
From that level cross cuts should
be run in both directions and cut
all the lodges. Also drift on one
of the lodges to the cross vein or
ledge, which is about 900 feet south
from the shaft.
The work described above would
prove the mine thoroughly, and
would develop large quantities of
good concentrating ores, and it is
very likely that it would develop
considerable high grade shipping
ore. While the cross cutting and
drifting recommended would ex-
pose a great deal of good ore, dew
elopment for lower levels should
be continued, and the shaft should
be carried down to depth of 500
feet at least, with levels every 100
feet duplicating the work recon-.
mended on the 200 foot. With
that done there is no doubt that
you will have "a valuable producing
gold mine, the output of which
may be used for development of
the great ledge in the Guerrero
ground and the wide cross ledge in
Los Janos ground.
n AS an enterprise appealing to the
investing public | know of none
: that | would recommend more
e readily THAI that in the control of
e the Estrella Mining & Smelling
n Company. Its property will COM
d pare favorably with any. The pro-
n duct, gold, is the standard of

world, and is not subject to the
k fluctuations of the market, as are
n copper, silver and other metals.

rank indignity on the part of some
ono This heinU tho caSa If is

rank indignity on the part of some-
one. This being the case, it is
small wonder that the officers lose
their patience, and the Press is au-
thoriZed to state in behalf of the
local justice of the peace that here
after a warrant will not be per-
mitted to be issued unless it charges
the actual crime the person is gull
ty Of, and then he will be given
the choice of proving himself inno-
cent or suffering the penalty pro-
vided. The penalty for netting fish
unlawfully is quite severe and each
fish so taken or each net used con-
stitutes separate crime. The
same provision Of the law applies
to unlawful spearing. To say that
the law is unjust is no excuse. The
laws are generally right, and
whether they are or not, the state
game commission has said that it
proposes to stop unlawful fishing in
Lake Koronis, and so far as they
can, the local officers should aid in
this work, and they should be as
sisted by every respectable citizen
in the village or about the lake.

ers to refrain from shipping or
having shipped any freight over

i2ing its passenger trains until the
depot here is either rebuilt or re-

Redwood Falls is in the throes of
a hot saloon or no saloon fight.
Judging from the Redwood Gazette,
the matter is being considered not
only from it's moral aspects but also
from practical business point of
view. The Gazette prints letters
and statements from the candidates
and from business men, and ais,
publishes a number of replies re-
ceived from business people in no.
license towns in response to inquir-
ies-all of which replies agree that
the no-license policy is THE policy.
Redwood Falls has hit upon the
right way of driving out the sa-
looms and if it's citizens keep up the
fight along this line they are bound
eventually to succeed.
During the past few days, several
parties have been brought before
the local justice on warrants sworn
out by Game Warden Boyd on a
charge of "illegal fshing," have
pleaded guilty and fined $40 and
costs. While the charge has been
made so the culprits could escape
with the lowest possible fine, it is
we'll understood that the crime they
we're guilty of was netting fish con-
trary to law. While the law is
perfectly plain and we'll understood
by every man in the country and
the person who violates is just as
much a criminal as the fellow who
steals horse or breaks into a
house, yet every man who has been
fined has plainly intimated that he
felt as tho he was being prosecuted
