About ninety men are now employed in development work on the property of the Inspiration Copper company. Superintendent Mike Shovlin is in charge and the task of thoroughly ex. ploring the ground proving an in creased extent of the low grade ore body is being rapidly accomplished un- der his direction.

 The Scorpion shaft which was first started about six weeks ago is now nearing the 40 foot point, at which it is expected that the copper carbonate encountered so far will give place to the Pinal schist carrying copper in quantities that will make the ore of commercial value. About a dozen men including miners, engineers and carpen- ters, are working at the Scorpion shaft.

 FROM FOSSIL CREEK
New Company Banking Up on Railroad to Be Built
 by Senator Clark

James Murtha, secretary of the Ton to River Mining company, who arrived in Globe from Pittsburg, Pa, a few days ago, has now made arrangements for the. expenditure of about S20,00O in development work on the company $ property, located in the Payson dis triet, about thirty miles north of Roose- welt. This property includes thirty eight claims and for many years was known as the Schell property. The Tonto River Copper company has had possession of it for about three years.
 For some time operations on the Ton to River holdings have been unimport- ant for the reason that transportation company now feels confident, however, that railroad will be built through the Payson district in the near future by Senator S'. A. Clark and consequently plans to begin developing its mine eN- tensively.
 The mine is considered very promis- ing property. It is situated about twen. ty-five miles south of the Fossil Creek Power company. The power company, in its terms extended to the various mining enterprises, offers to put its lines and transformers for one and three quarters cents per kilowatt hour. fnis makes a cheap rate and a means of securing power that should be taken advantage of widely by the various mining companies in the PaysOn district that await only suitable transportatjo ion facilities before beginning operations with production of ore in view.
 Two years ago a test shipment of ore was made to the Old Dominion smelter from the Tonto River mine and much of it ran as high as 42 per cent in copper. This ore was taken from a shaft put down on one of the outcrOp- ping lelges.
 The present plans for development outline the extension of a 275-foOt tun- nel that has been driven into the side of the Sierra Anehas mountains. It is proposed to drive this tunnel to the the S00foot point and at that dis tance it is believed that it will cut, at. depth of 600 feet, a ledge which outcrops on the surface and which has already been explored somewhat by a shaft 100 feet deep. This shaft at the 100 foot point has showing in it's bot ton vein of chalcopyrite eight feet wide, the width having steadily increas ed with depth. When the tunnel has in- tersected the ledge at point directly under the shaft, raise will be put to connect with the shaft.
 Tomorrow morning number of teams will leave Globe hauling some l4,000 ponds of freight en route to the Tonto River property. This merchandise con. sists chiefly of mining tools and other

FLATTER|NG RETURN FROM WORK AT
 COLE MINE
Presence of Bornite Taken as Good Omen for Prop
 erty's Future

As yet, there has been nothing in the results attained by operations on the mine of the Cole Development company. in the Gibson district, to refute the pre-. diction of many local mining men that this property will eventually develop into proposition very similar 10 the Gibson mine three miles distant.
 A force of men has been steadily at work sinking the inclined shaft on the Cole property for several weeks, and "a depth of about 335 feet has now been reached. It will be rememberd that at the time operations were resumed on the Cole mine a few weeks ago the shaft was 320 feet deep. In the sinking of the additional fifteen feet the rich ore that prevailed in the bottom of the shaft has continued at greater depth and the tendency of the material there is toward greater showings of bornite and ehaleOcite-as good an indication as could be desired, since it shows that in all probability the shaft is entering a zone of secondary enrichment. This prevalence of bornite, it will be recall ed, was one of the characteristics of the rich ore developed on the fourteenth level of the Old Dominion Copper Min ing & Smelting company few years ago. The ere m which the Cole shaft is going down is chiefly chalcopyrite and conservative estimate of its aver age percentage in copper places it at about eight or ten per cent. While the copper values in much of it would run extremely high, it is safe to say that shipments of it would return shelter reports of the percentage esti- mated above.
 One of the most encouraging features of the development work on the Cole mine is that, although the high grade ore now prevailing was first encounter ed at a depth of 265 feet in the in clined shaft, it has continued down to the present 335 foot point and the shaft eight feet wide, which follows the hang ing wall down, has in no place run out of ore. The probability that the Cole ore body has great extent is therefore very strong and future development work along the present conservative lines should place the mine in the list of Globe districts producers.

Work at Warrior Property Intensely Gratifying
 to Management

The result of the development work done on the Warrior mine since it was taken over by Hoval A. Smith has given the management great satisfaction.
 Work is now being done ou three levels, the 250 intermediate, the 300. foot level and the 300-foot intermedi. ate stope. On the 300-foot level the drift being run there is exposing 10 per cent ore. This drift is part of a plan outlined to develop the Warrior mine along the block lines 100 feet apart and the present showings on the 300foot level indicate that a new large body of high grade ore is being opened there. The ore grades in all the stopes are holding their values well, and by means of these stopes, the shipments now amount to between sixty and seventy tons day. This ore is being sent to the Fl Paso smelter. About fifty men are employed at the Warrior mine.

Dummies Reported to Be in Employ of Miami Com
 pany Quit Post
WERE WAITING TO
 FILE PUBLIC LANDS
Action Quickly Follows Bal fingers Visit to Land
 Office, Phoenix

Presumably, six names of employees have been recently stricken from the payroll of the Miami Copper company, for authoritative report has it that the half dozen trusty watchers who former ly haunted the portal of the United States land office at Phoenix, have now deserted their posts in response to cer- tain pressure from Secretary Ballinger and other officials of the government.
 Up to the time that the vigil of the trusty six was ended by federal inter- ruption, the men had passed the busi- ness hours of each day sitting stolidIy in the corridor leading to the door of the land office. Their presence was more or less a mystery and not long ago some of the territorial papers said that Cleve w. Van Dyke, Globe $ incom- parable promoter of townsites, and the father of Miami, had stationed the men at the land office to file on various tracts for him as soon as opportunity arose. But it is said that the six men, in an swer to inquiries made by Secretary BallInger and his subordinates, admit ted that they were acting as dummies for the Miami Copper company and were getting $2.50 day for remaining in readiness to file on certain lands in Gila and Graham counties in November.
 The men were not wholly idle during their days of watching, for many maga- zines furnished them with means of menticulture that under the cireum- stances could not be despised. But now their period of search for erudition has come to an abrupt end, and while there is said to be no law which can exclude them from the anteehamber of the land office, some means will doubles be found to discontinue the diurnaI ses- siOns of the Miami Copper cOmpany's men in waiting
 The policy of the land office seeks to discourage the employment of dummies for land entry purposes. The departure of the men from their posts followed conference between Secretary Ballinger and Ira Alderman of Globe, one of the firm of Alderman & Elliott, attorneys for the Miami Copper company. The return of the men to sentinel duty at the land office is considered doubtful.

Old Dominion Employing in. Ncighborhood of Thir-
 teen Hundred Men
ORE COMES FROM
 SIXTEENTH LEVEL
Daily Production at Least 6O,0OO Pounds Copper
 New Equipment

The Old Dominion Copper Mining X Smelling company is maintaining its usual record of industry. Under the supervis- ion of Acting Superintendent George Kingdom, a force of be- tween 700 and 800 men are em- ployed underground and about 800 men are working elsewhere about the mine and shelter.
 About nine-tenths of the ore now being treated by the Old Dominion shelter is coming from the cOmpany's mine from the levels between the second and the sixteenth. Most of it, however, is being taken from the workings below the ninth level, as the lower levels are proving much more productive than the higher ones.
 The shelter is not now re- Ceiving any great amount of custom ore, but with the grad ual advent of the various Globe district mines into the list of producers, the shipments of ore will, of course, materially in crease and consequently the output of the Old Dominion mine, for many years the main stay financially of Globe enter prlSes, will increase according ly. The present output is about 9OOOO pounds of copper a day.
 In the power plant of the Old Dominion, the installation of a large number of economizers has resulted in a considerable saving of expense.

and the results obtained in each in stance have been very satisfactory.
 The Taylor, Columbia and Mercer tunnels are still being extended and work in the Bulldog shaft is progressing steadily. On the 275 foot level of the Bulldog, crosscuts are being run west and south.
 The Inspiration Copper company is now beginning the construction of a number of cottages which will be need led by the employees as soon as the force IS increased with the continuance of development work on the property. For the present, about ten cottages will be erected and four of these have already been begun. The average number of rooms contained in each cottage will be three, but some of the houses will have two, four and five rooms each.

Wednes- day morning Mir. Murtha and J. P. Bosch of Globe will leave this city for the company mine. Mir. Bosch is well known here as a mining man of considerable experience and will have charge of operations on the Tonto River property.
 According to current reports, the rail road being projected by Senator Clark will pass within few miles Of the Tonto River mine and in that efse this property will have ready and ac- cessible market for its ores and should become very valuable with proper de velopment.

BROOKE PREPARES
PENSION FIGURES

Montgomery, November 17.-fSpecial. )
Gov. r. p. Conner has had II. Y. Brooke,
one of the examiners of public accounts,
make an investigation of the payments to
old soldiers of pension money from the
year 1891 to the year 1910, showing that
for the time there will have been colIec-
tons of $5,S9S. 225 IS, with disbursements
of like amount.
The report takes up the time from the
levy of one-half mill in 1891, when the
receipts were 1888 ,21S. Sc, to the increase of
the amount in 1899 to / mill, with receipts
of s249 3OO.05 and in 1908 by appropriation
in 1907, and TO 100000 in 1909.
1t is shown that the 1 mill levied in 1905,
collected in 1907 and available for distri-
button 1908, amounted to 1857 III. 49, with
appropriation of s15O,O00 added. Disburse-
ments against this were 1882, 1S1. 40. For
, disbursement in 1909 there were collections
of s42s,S69.9S, appropriation 100000, dis
bursements of $785. 275.25. For 1910 there
will be $453307 49, with 100000 appropria-
J ton and disbursements of $846 537 49,
| The confusion arises in the fact that
| taxes levied one year are collected the
| next and available for payment the next.
| Running this out, Mr. Brooke shows that
| there will be at the end of the year dis
bursements of as much as is taken in.

Savage escaped with a slight blow.
The trouble grew out of an effort on
the part of Colonel Savage following
the effort to elect Capt. John G. Smith
of Birmingham to the command of
the brigade. and much feeling had
been engendered before hand. No ar
rests were made.
After the brigade delegates had con-
ferred they came back with a report
that Col A. c. oxford had been Sc
lected as commander. Colonel Savage
at once entered & protest, but was ruled
out Of order. General Harrison said
that the report of the credentials COM
mittee having been accepted there
could be no discredit cast upon the
delegations from Camp Hardee of Biz
mingham, and Captain Smith of An
niston, as Colonel Savage undertook to
bring about. Colonel Savage protested
afresh that a wrong ought not to be
allowed.
In the meantime, however, Capt. John
G. Smith, about whose candidacy for
the honor the trouble had arisen, got
the floor and moved to make the selec-
ton of Colonel oxford unanimous,
which was carried. not even Colonel
Savage voting against it.
The fight caused great sensation in
the hall. There were a number of
ladies present and the officers felt the
keenest regret at the incident. How
ever, after the mill many went for
ward to congratulate Colonel oxford
while Comrade Cunningham sought

by E. o. McCord Mr.. McCord settled
the controversy over whether the anti

brewers and distillers to carry on their

Il know, because l am in a position

ers and distillers is being used in this

I am ashamed to say, is the campaign
manager of the opponents, or tho

and I know whereof 1 speak when I
make this statement"
That Mr.. McCord knew what he was
talking about was borne out by the fur
Their statement that one of the ora
tors of the ants recently admitted In
a speech in Marshall county that he
was being paid SIS a day to work for
the defeat of the amendment. He was
broad-minded enough to admit that the
adoption of the amendment would not
settle the sale of liquor in Alabama.
but that 1t would settle the saloon and
the legal sale of intoxicants.
According to his version, Alabama
bears the burden of the United States
on her shoulders. All eyes are turned
upon u.s." he said, ito see how we deal
with this question, and If this amend
ment is adopted the same thing will be
done in other states"
