Rare Metals in the Black Hills of South
 nak0ka

The Black Hills of South Dakota contain deposits of ores of the rare metals tin, tungsten, and tantalum, which have been examined by Frank L. Hess, geologist, of the United States Geological Survey, whose re- port forms a paper in the Surveys Bulletin Contribution to eco- homie geology, 1908, Part I.''
 The lack of commercially valuable tin deposits in the United States gave especial interest to the dis cOYery of tin ores in the Black Hills The deposits occur in the northern part Of the hills at linton and in the southern part near Hill City, Key stone, Oreville, and Custer MT. Hess sketches the geology of the tin de- pOsits as exposed at the various mines and claims and gives brief accounts of their commercial development.
 Tungsten deposits occur in the Black Hills at several places, but have been exploited commercially only at Lead, in the central hills. The valuable ore is wolframite Tun- gsten is of especial interest and value in connection with it's use in tool steel and as a fIament in incandes- cent electric lamps.
 The tantalum of the Black Hills oc- CUTS in the mineral columbite. The known deposits of columbite In the region are described in detail by MT. Hess. Tantalum is also used in mak- ing flaments for incandescent electric lamps.
 The report. which includes a brief bibliography of publications on tin, tantalum, and tungsten. is issued as an advance chapter Bulletin 38O-D) from Bulletin 3SO and may be had on to the Director of the Survey at Washington.

Automobile Boulevard.

Plans for an automobile boulevard approximately 20 miles long are be- ing prepared and it is expected that active work on the boulevard will be commenced within a short time. The boulevard. is to be an extension of speedway for a distance of eight miles east of the city. It will then be run south for four miles to the llth street extension and will then be run eight miles to the city limits.
 According to automobile owners, it will cost a comparatively small sum to make this boulevard and they state that it would be an ideal drive not alone for autoists but for owners of carriages as well.
 There has been frequent talk re- gardiug proposed boulevards out of Tucson but the present plans include the biggest undertaking proposed thus far.
 It is Eoped by the people behind the movement that ample funds can be obtained for the work from the county and from ranch owners who will be most directly benefited by the improvement-Tucson Citizen.

Rawhide cann RecaIIs Old Days.

News of the mineral discoveries at IRawhide, Nevada, inclines old Ari- zonans toward memories of a camp of the same name that aourished in northern Yuma county nearly thirty years ago. Rawhide lay between the Harcuyar mountains and the Colorado river, in a region where water was and is hard 10 get. Yet the camp had a population of several thousand and hundreds of mining claims were staked ont around the only producing property.
 This. the Rawhide mine, was oper- ated in 1879 by "BuF Hearst, his local manager being Dan Gillette. There could be no doubt about the richness of the ore. It was ''petan- que. native silver. combined with copper, that ran as high as $S a pound. Much of this ore was ship ped and much was reduced in a small furnace, set up at the nearest water, on the banks of the Big Sandy, seven miles distant Coke was hauled from Maricopa station on the Southern Pacidc, about 25O miles distant The ore was found in lime, in irregularly placed kindeys, stopped out by Mexi- can "coyote" method, almost with out timber or system, most of the ore being brought out on the backs Of Mexican laborers.
 The bottom dropped out of Raw hide when the mines at Calico were discovered. Gillette was among the first at Calico and a considerable part of Rawhide camp followed him at once. It was not long before the owls aud coyotes were the sole residents. E-eu the locations were permitted to lapse, though the Bawhide was later taken again by "One-Eyed Riley" later killed at Needles. The claims have been again located only lately. It is firmly believed that the mine is a great one, but the old stopes are caved in and are danger ous and it will take much money to get down below them with modern workings.
 A four-stamp mill, with capacity for ten tons day, is being placed on the Single Standard mine, near Pay son, in northern Cua county. The ore is free and is expected to plate not less than sl2 a ton. Much of it will run over alOO.
 Work is to be resumed on the AL yarado mine in Polls Gulcb, in south ern Yavapai county, and new ma chinery is to be added to the mill, for reducing expenses and saving values in the ore.-Exchange

Properties Taken Over.

Announcement was made last week of an important mining deal in the Olive camp district whereby eastern capitalists acquire the North Pros perty mines in that section. The consideration for the property is $35,0 ,00). The properties were acquired from Luke J. Corda and Nick Corda who are pioneer mining men in this section. First payment has been made on the bond given and active work is to be begun next week. Luke Corda will have charge of the operations at the mine.
 Considerable work has been done on the properties with good showfngs. 2,SOO feet of development work has been done in tunneling and shaft wOrk.-Tucson Citizen.

Are Fighting Special Rates.

Determined to leave nothing un- done tc prevent Arizona and Nevada cities from obtaining the benefit of terminal rates, which they believe themselves justly entitled to under the Spokane decision, representa- tive of the wholesalers and jobbers of San Francisco is to have a con ference with J. C. Stubbs, traffic director of the Hartman lines.
 Should the terminal rates for which the Arizona and Nevada cities have been working, for years be all lowed it would mean that the San Francisco and Los Angeles jobbers will have to compete more closely with the eastern jobbers.
 Regarding the conference the San Francisco Chronicle says:
 At the request of T. Cary Fried lander, secretary of the Merchauts' Exchange, the governing board Of the traffic bureau of that organiza- tion will meet J. c. Stubbs, traffic director of the Hartman lines, for the purpose of discussing the best methods of preventing the extension of the terms of the Spokane termi- nal decision of the Interstate Com merce Commission to Reno and Ari- zona points. It is asserted that the contentious of the railroad com panies and the merchants of San Francisco are identical in the Reno matter and the conference will le held with view to merging their in- terests and strength in an effort to resist the attempt of Reno and Ari- zona cities to obtain terminal rates.
 eve propose to go over how San Francisco is affected by the exten- sion of the Spokane decision to Reno and Arizona points, said Friedlaud- CT. Ut will be general conference between MT. Stubbs and the mer- chants, the interests of the railroads and the San Francisco business men being identical"
 George w. Luce, of the Southern Pacific company, from whom the idea of a conference originally emanated, says it was not a request, but a sug- gestion which he threw out to Fried lander.
 "We have the best interests of San Francisco at heart" said Luce, "aud thought it would be good idea to get together with the merchants and talk it all over"
 Those of the traffic bureau govern ing board who will meet Stubs are: J. O. Harron, E. R. Lilienthal, J r. Littlefeld, A. G. Towne, A. R. Scott and J. K. Armsby.

Railroad Assessments fOr lQO8.

The Territorial Board of Equaliza- tion has completed the listing of railroad property in the territory and the fixing of valuations. The latter will total about three-quarters of a million dollars more than the valuations of last year, in addition to which there is an added valua tion of s, 1000 on the Pullman company. The main increases in valuation are due to the voluntary listing by the com panies themselves, of rolling stock added during the past year, though there were a few slight changes made by the board.
 Following is Q schedule showing the names of the roads assessed, their mileage, the rate of valuation per mile this year and the rate of valuation per mile last year:
