MINES AT HELVET|A IN FLOUR|SH|NG
 CONDITION
FIFTY TONS OF ORE ARE BEING SHIPPED DAILY TO sMELT-
 ER AT GLOBE.

TUCSON, April 16.--'' The Helvetia properties never looked better than they do at present and I look forward to q bright future for the Helvetia district, not alone in the properties our company controls, but in other properties,' re- marked c. c. Prindle, president of the Helvetia Copper Mining company, who was in the camp recently, aboot the tenth anniversary of the taking over of the original claims in the district from Ed Hughes, who is now in Tucson. This transfer was made to the first company in control, when $5O,000 was paid to Hughes by J. E. Seager for the old com pany. Charles F.. Udall and Dan Dwyer of Tucson promoted the deal
 President Prindle said the company now has ono hundred men on the pay roll and is shipping 5 per cent ore, fifty tons daily. to Globe. The haul is made by wagon to Vail, $S per ton being paid by the mining company for this haul.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1909-04-17


 More teams are needed to transfer the ore to Vail. Mir. Prindle hoped to see a railroad built from Helvetia to ycil. eighteen miles, but at present he was not prepared to dwell upon that ques- tion.
 Mr. Prindle added that the pumps, which were recently installed, have a capacity of eight hundred gallons 8 minute, but are only lifting four hun dred gallons, all that is necessary to clear the mines of water at this time. The Copper World, he said, is being opened and 400 feet of tunnel has been run into the Leader mine, from which 6 per cent sulphide ore is being ex- tracted.. The company will not install . shelter, being satisfied with returns on ore shipped to Globe.
 Mr. Prindle spent Friday in the city and left for his home in Minneapolis yesterday morning.

Fraction Hunting Is Latest
 PaStime in COurtland Town

The populace of Courtland was sur prised Thursday morning to wake rp and find claim monument directly in the middle of the street, almost in front of the 'postofice and bank, says the Courtland Times.
 Inside the monument was little tin box, and the curious gathered around and one by one inspected the monu- ment. Then the Courtlandites, who scarcely believed that at this date there was claim or a fraction directly in the heart of Central Courtland which had been overlooked, removed few stones and took out the little treasure caskct.
 It was found to contain q claim no- tice signed by Colonel l.. w. Powell general manager of the Calumet & Ari- zona Mining company, which has big in terests here. The notice was dated March 25, 1909. A full claim was filed upon by this notice, but it is probably only fraction.
 The remarks that greeted this find were amusing. ''Why, I've been walk ing over this piece of ground for the last four months,' said one old hand

Doran Is Only Arizonian Who
 Ever Voted for President

Governor Kibbey's recent appoint ment of Colonel A. J. Doran to be super intendent of the Arizona Pioneers home at Prescott, calls to mind the fact that Colonel Doran is probably the only one in Arizona who ever had the dis tinction of voting for president of the United States while residing within the borders of Arizona.
 To the casual reader it would seem impossible for man living in ter ritory, Arizona or any other, to vote for president and have his vote count. ed, as was the case with Colonel Doran.
 During the war between the forces of the north and the men of the south a special enactment was made by con gress allowing soldiers in the federal troops to vote for president, no matter where they were living, and provided further that their vote should be count cd In the state in which they rightfully belonged. Colonel Doran was at that

at the business of getting in on good things not suspected as being uninmp- ed. "And to think that didn t know this valuable slice was standing here all this time. Some men don't know when Providence is trying to drive them into gold pile. ''
 ''Put me in on that hoedoo list, too, " said another.
 Another began to gather up rocks and to build monument little fur ther up the street. What for9'' he was asked.
 "Why, I'm just going to stick up a few claim piles, and what don't belong to me won't be coming to me, but if I'd piled up some rocks on this street yesterday. with little tin can on the inside, this chunk of mother earth would be mine today--so Tn going to do little assessment work here and there in the hope of hitting fraction"
 It is probable that fraction hunting will be popular from now on. The truth is that the c. & A. engineers, having made the surveys all around this new claim, were the only people iR position to know that it was there.
