Big Dividends From Mexico Properties

The Mining World, from reports made to it, is able to show that 37 Mexico companies to date have paid to shareholders S57 1907, 432 in divi- dends, return equivalent to 66 per cent on their outstanding capitaliza- tion of SS9, 100, ,662.
 By far the largest dividends are being distributed by corporations that are still doing business under the old Mexican custom, namely of capitalizing at so many shares, not dollars, their par value depending upon the demand for the stock in the open market.
 Of the thirty-seven companies re- porting to The Mining World thirty three operate gold -silver-lead prop critics, and these have to their credit in dividend disbursements S42, ,6l4, ,33S (gold), on a combined issued capitali- zation of S49, ,76O, ,662, a return equiva- lent to 85 per cent.
 Three copper properties have paid since organization, total of SS, 1S5,- 118, return of 3S per cent on their issued capitalization of s2l ,94O,O ,OOO.
 The Guggenheim Exploration Co.,, whose holdings are largely in Mexico, has paid since organization $7,2S5,- PIT, a return of 43 per cent on its S17, ,OO0, ,OOO issued capital. Among the large dividend payers of Mexico, with the amounts disbursed in divi- dends are the following: Esperanza, SlO, POT ,5OO: Fl Gro, s5, ,333, ,26O; Penolee S4, 366, ,685: Dos Estrellas, S3, 780, 900; San Rafael, s, ,179,9 ,938; Sta. Gertrudis y Guadalupe, $3,96O,O ,OOO; Greene Con-, SC, ,137 800: Sta. Maria de la Paz, 3D. 436, $50; Tezutlan, Sl ,95O, 1000.

Production of Coal in West Satisfactory.

The United States Geological Sur vey has completed the statistics of coal production in 1908 in all of the Rocky mountain and Pacific states, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mex ico, North Dakota, Utah and Wy oming, the output amounting to 2l,- 684 All short tons, valued at S33, ,252, 73O. Tn 1907 the production in these states was 23,99O,917. In not one of these states did the production in 1908 exceed that of the proceeding year. The total decrease amounted to 2,3O6, 5O3 tons; the decline in value was S2, ,845, ,059. Almost exactly 50 per cent of this decrease in produc- tion occurred in Colorado, whose out put declined 1,155,263 short tons. Nearly 40 per cent of the decrease or 763, ,S39 tons was in the output in Wyoming. These two states, Colorado and Wyoming, contribute more than two-thirds of the total production of the Rocky mountain region.
 The Pacific coast states, which in- clude the territory of Alaska and the states ot California, Oregon and Washington, in 1908 produced 3.123,- 46S short tons of coal, valued at &c., 976,332 against 3,775,6O2 short tons, valued at S7,937 ,9l8, in 1907, a de- crease in production of 652, 134 short tons in quantity and of S961, ,5S6 in value. In California and Oregon there were small increases in pro- duction, but in Alaska and in Wash ington the production decreased. Of the total production in the Pacific coast 97 per cent is from Washing ton.
 Detailed statistics covering coal production in the Rocky mountain and the Pacific coast states will be published in the forthcoming report by Edward w. Parker of the Geolo g. ical survey, on the coal production of tht United States in 1908.

Dry Farming Congress Invites All Ma tiOns to Attend Its Fourth Session
 at BiIlil6s.

Secretary John T. Burns has issued the official call for the Fourth Dry Farming Congress, to be held at Bill ings, Montana, October 26-28, 1909, and has sent this call as an official in- vitation to the rulers of all nations, agricultural departments of all coun- tries, governors of all states and to the officers of various organizations identified with or interested in agri- cultural development. The call states the objects of the Congress to be discussions of methods by which non-irrigated lands may be proftably cultivated, the creation of closer CO., operation between government and state experts in charge of the dry farming experimental work and ac- tual farmers of the arid districts and the enlargement of plans for carrying on a great educational propaganda and tke encouragement of legislation for the benefit of the agricultural regions of the world.
 The Congress will be essentially an agricultural and development meet ing. A notable feature will be "Gov- ernor's day." when chief executives of many western states will deliver addresses. Many foreign nations will participate in the program.
 An important feature of the Cong ress will be the Second International Dry Farming Exposition, October 25- %. The exhibition committee with members in all western states and all foreign countries represented in the Congress, is making active and elab- crate preparation for exhibits of dry farmed products, representing the arid districts of the world. The peo- pie of Billings are making prepara- tions for the entertainment of dele gates and visitors upon a hospitable scale. A general information bureau will be established, which will supply descriptive literature and general in- formation in response to all inquiries addressed to Secretary Burns. The call is signed by Frank c. Bowman, chairman of the National Executive Committee of the Congress, and P. B. Moss, chairman of the Montana Board of Control.
 In addition to the government off, cials and various commercial and agricultural organizations to which this call is sent Secretary Burns is sending it to 3O,OOO individual farm CTS and others interested in agricul- tural development of the west.

Grant County Mining Notes.
Special Correspondent.

Special Correspondent.
 In small way the mining situation in the country surrounding Silver City is improving steadily and shows many tokens of activity. A consid- erable tonnage ot mining machinery, fuel and supplies is being freighted from here, consigned to the innumer- able small camps of this region. Ore is moving too, shipments going stead fly to the smelters at Ei Paso and Orogrande.
 Lack of adequate transportation facilities, now as ever, is a great handicap to development, especially of the copper industry in the Burro mountain districts. That copper mines of magnitude exist there was long since demonstrated, tut the con- trolling companies, two or more of which are strong and of ample cap ital, seem to be playing a waiting game. A few months ago there was much talk of smelters, the locations being alternately Deming and White water, station on the Santa Fe. Too, there was a definite plan for the building of railroad from Dem ing to be called the Colorado, Colum- bus & Mexico Railway, but both pro- jects are now in abeyance. It is probable that the continued low price of copper is responsible largely for the slow movements.
 A party of capitalists from Okla homa City, Okla, have purchased outright for cash the capital stock and property of the Golden Giant Mining company at Pinos Altos. It includes the Golden Giant mine, one of the oldest producers in this sec. tion, having a 75O-foot shaft and a large amount of drifting. A 10. stamp mill will be increased immed- lately to a 2O-stamp and active op- erations commenced.
 Good reports reach here continual. ly from Mogollon. The Socorro Mines company have completed their new and extensive reduction works and the: same will be put into opera, tion at once. This is the biggest step forward ever taken in the Mogollon district. Good strikes are reported in the Deadwood and Little Fannie mines within the last few days. The territory, Grant county and various companies and individ uals have united in building a good wagon road from Silver City tc Mogollon. The survey has been com pleted and work, by convict labor will commence in September.
 The Silver City shelter, which went to the wall with the first ap proach of the panic, still remain: closed. The litigation, however, is said to be nearing an end, and the property will probably soon be taker over by the Savannah Copper com pany, which holds a claim of nearly half million dollars against the olt concern, the Comanche Copper com pany. The property includes a vast number of patented and unpatenteC claims in the Burro mountains ant Pinos Altos districts. No announce ment has yet been made as to wheth CT or not the shelter will be operated in the near future.
 The custom shelter at Deming, alsC closed since the panic, will open Sep tember lst. It is now being remodel ed and equipped for handling copper as well as silver or lead ores. It il now controlled by the National Min ing and Smelling company, a strong concern in the mining world.

Facts of Christian Faith.

I. God is; we are; and the world exists. These postulates we may not prove. The bible does not attempt to prove them, but assumes their truth. Science has never been able to fathom their depth. Nevertheless everyone knows they are true. It is only the fool who says in his heart, there is no God. This, then, is the first fact the Christian must believe. II. The second is the fact of sin. Whether wilfully, from free choice or on account of Original Sin aud the Fall, or because it was foreordained, we may not be able to tell. But the reality remains of evil in the world, and we are all fully aware that we have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
 III. The third fact a Christian must believe is the fact of Jesus Christ:
 (D. That He was born. Was He born of virgin conceived of the Holy Ghost as St. Matthew and St. Luke seem to portray, or was he the the natural son of Joseph and Mary as St. John intimates? We may never know the manner of His birth; there never was and never will be any doubt of the historical fact that He was born.
 (2). That He was the son of God. Here again, different denomina- tions disagree as to how he was con- ceived and became the Son of God. But all Christians unite in the fact that Jesus was the Son and only per feet son of God.
 t3) That He was cruci6ed. Was it preordained that He should die a premature death; did He give Him self a sacrifice for the world, or was His death the natural outcome of a pure life in a sinful world? Some deny one or another of these theories No one denies the fact that he wal crucified.
 (4). That He arose from the grave Here again, there is a difference oi opinion as to whether the same body that was buried, arose or whether il was new spiritual body. All Christ ians, however, believe that in some way He arose, walked, talked, att and conversed with men.
 (5). That He has physically de parted. But His spirit is here. Ht has come again; He is here; He vii always come.
 (6). That He atones for sin. How does He atone for sin? This ques tion is as difficult as life itself. Blu we know he does, because-Once we felt ourselves out of harmony witt God; now, through Him, we are AT ONE with God. Every day we see o read of the process of the atonemep in others, when we see them change from life of sin and selfishness tt one of love and righteousness. Ant last, we have also felt the atonins spirit of Christ working through u to bring others to God.
