Baboquiyari Mts. June 5. 1909. Editor Review:
 Mining in this section Is very ac. tive and looking better than at any time since John w. Mackay worked the ouijotoa silver mines. The Pap ago Indians are working their placer gold claims at Quijotoa. Ajo and Fresnal with good results. notwith- standing that water is scarce. Dry washers would do well just now. but the Indians do not know how to use them. The Indians work about three days during the week, but they make enough to buy themselves wagons and saddles and make fair living. Some of the Indians are wealthy. Pablo Lijere owns one of the best cattle ranches in Pima county. His build ings are substantial adobe houses with shingle roofs and he owns sev- erai fine carriages, the finest that the well known house of yillaescusa Car, riage company sells in Tucson. Liiaro raises fine mules and horses besides cattle.
 Jose Juan, another Papago Indian, also owns a fine ranch, with fine buildings and the most modern ma chinery is on his well for pumping water for his large herd of cattle.

The mines owned by the Cababi Mining company were once the richest sil yer producers on the Pacific coast owned and worked by Don Padres of Magdalena, Sonora, Mexico.

 The gold mines of MT. Villaescusa are being steadily worked. and the ores improve with depth, in quality and quantity. In some of the rock the virgin gold can be seen and it will not be long before these mines will be among the wealth pro ducing properties of Pima county.
