BETTER TIMES IN THE CHAPARRAL
 COUNTRY
Report of Resumption Of Smelter Has A
 Good Effect
(From Saturdays Daily)

In speaking or the present sJaIus of mining in the Chaparral section, John $. Jones, a visitor to the city yesterday, says it is of decidedly encouraging nature, being attributable mainly to the good news attending the resumption of the shelter at Humboldt In that connection he be- lieves that when this plant is again in commission a heavy product will be available from that section, more so in fact than formerly was in evi- dence. All interests feel the stimu lating effect of the probable outcome of the question to this end, and the creation of market based on per maneney and profit all round.
 General mine work is on at sev- eral claims in that vicinity, and some excellent showings are made. That of the Mount Elliott people, on the Dividend vein. he characterizes as of prominent rating. In cutting into rich and permanent body of ore on the 300 foot level he speaks of tt as a noteworthy occurrence, and be- lieves this property is established as a splendid proposition of the future. This strike has also stimulated others in that zone. and when depth is given the same conditions will follow with others.
 NIr. Jones says that work will soon be resumed on the Jessie ground by the Ohio Mines company. who re- gently took over this system of claims. It is probable that the work will be directed to sinking the main shaft to a point to tap tine rich ore zones that are known to exist in the old workings. and to reach greater depth. following out Praetie- ally the work he started some months ago. Of the termination of this work he has not the slightest doubt, the former development showing con clusively an excellent condition below. Several members of the Ohio com pany are expected in this city in a few days. and it is the belief of all that the property is to enter the ae- tive list and be kept in operation.
 Work on the Independence vein is being pushed. and a fine grade of milling ore, with a good sized vein. is shown. This work is being per formed by W. II. Jones, a son of J. :. Jones. and to his good judgment is the result due. This young man has recently completed a collegiate course in Pennsylvania. and has adopted mine engineering as pro fession. In his mine work new ore shoots have been uncovered also in the Union vein. parallel location. In this mine in the upper workings. an $50 grade of shipping ore is. shown, that win he taken out as soon as the shelter at Humboldt starts. This property will supply a large tonnage of smelling ore, being desirable for this treatment from the large per centage of iron it carries for fluXing.
 John S. and Jesse T. Jones are get ting their new grinding mill ready to handle the tailing produced in years gone by from the old Jessie mill. The tonnage of this product will run close to 5000. which is con neieutly bedded at the old mill. The revuue from this yield will run into a handsome sum.

TON MILE BASIS REQUESTED OF
 RAILROADS
Railroad Commissioners Make Important
 Move

I ears or eApeflence as rate eA- pert and several weeks of hard work are epitomized in the demand that has just been made on the rail roads of this territory by the Ari- zona Railway commission through Secretary N. o. Bicknell, asking them to adopt the mile-ton basis in making their freight charges between points in Arizona.
 If Bicknell's schedule is adopted rates will be reduced on the different Arizona roads from fourteen to for ty-two per cent on the different classes of commodities. The plan reaches further and is designated to affect shipments from points in and out of Arizona.
 That the railroads may fully un- derstand Bieknell's plan. the com mission has sent each of the railroads doing business in Arizona an elabor- ate set of schedules affecting each road. and the proposed rates between various points, that now figure at all in shipping.
 Rate schedules as a rule are too intricate for the comprehension of the average shipper or consumer, but Bicl,nell has so expressed his table of proposed rates that it can be eas- fly understood after a small amount of study.
 BickneIl first computed a graduated table by classes. and then taking fifteen cents per ton mile, which is the maximum rate allowed by law in Arizona, reduced this by a system of percentages to the rate in cents per ton-mile for the different classes. the result being that the basis on which were subsequently, figured the exam iples of rates between Arizona points.
 Arizona railroads to which Bick- nell's proposed plan has been sent are the follovin: Arizona Southern. Arizona x California. Santa Fe main line, Fl Paso S Southwestern. Brad shaw Mountain, Gila Valley. Globe X Northern, Grand Canyon. Marieopa & Phoenix, Morenci Southern. Phoe- nix X Eastern, Prescott & Eastern. Santa Fe, Prescott < Phoenix. Twin Buttes and United Verde.
 Bicl,nell has figured that the adop- ton of his plan by the railroads will mean reductions to the shippers of Arizona on these roads as follows:
 Arizona Southern, 2 per cent.
 Arizona & California, 19.5 per cent.
 Santa Fe main line, q per cent. Fl Paso & Southwestern, 35.6 per cent.
 GHa Valley, Globe X Northern, 5l Irer cent.
 Maricora X Phoenix, a2l per cent.
 Prescott & Eastern. 22.5 per cent.
 santa Fe, Prescott < Phoenix. 3I per cent.
 Southern Pacific. 42.7 per cent. United Verde X Pacific, l42 per cent.
 The other railroads of the territory are in like proportion, the above prin- cipal lines being mentioned specific ally in this stration-Phoenix Democrat.

The Cotton Mill Engineer.

Fall River Herald: Consider the
engineer Of a cotton mill. He goes
to his work attracting small atten-
ton. The day comes when a cylin-
der head blows out. What does he
do? Rush madly out of the room
full of escaping steam? No; he
walks quietly over to the scene of
danger, shuts off a valve and in do
ing so places his life in jeopardy, but
at the same time saves thousands of
dollars for his employers. The engin-
e who does this has simply played
the part Of Jack Binns. The motor
man, hand on his lever, sweeps down
the street. 1t is thronged with peo-
pie scurrying here and there, the
pavements are slippery, and an old
man or woman infirm or unused to
the turmoil, slips, and in a second
more would be under the wheels. The
man in the vestibule sees the crisis in
a second, is not Disconnected, gives
a turn, reverses his power and a
tragedy is averted. Now this happens
almost daily and, despite the shock
the brave motorman goesson as un-
concernedly as if nothing had hap
pened. Isn't he sort of a Jack
Binns?

FOREST SERVICE IN STATE
What Has Been Accomplished in
South Dakota by the Government
in the Forest Reserves

Washington, Feb. 24.-During
the past summer the Forest Service
installed an experimental wood pre-
serving plant at Englewood, S. Oak,
in the Black Hills National Forest.
The first treatments we're made in
August, but the regular work did
not begin until the middle of Sep
TENDER. The plant has a 24-hour
capacity of 5000 feet of timber b.
NJ, and most of the treatments have
been carried on in cooperation with
the Homestake Mining Company.
The company now considers that
the practicability If the process and
Of the type of plant have beer de-
monstrated, and have expressed a
wish to take over the plant and oper-
ate it Independently on a commercial
basis. AS it is the distinct policy of
the forest service not to compete
with private wood preserving COM
panies. but, on the contrary, to es-
tablish experimental plants only
where such work will encourage the
permanent establishment of a COM
mercial plant, arrangements have
10Y been made to turn over the
plant, arrangements have now been
made to turn over the plant to the
Homestake company. An Expert in
wood preservation will be detailed
to supervise the operation of the
plant for several months, in order
to complete the working out of the
best details of the process and to
assist the cooperating company in
training its employees to con-
tinue the work independently.

OF Bartine the vote was r"econsidered

penses were incurred pursuant to

strictly legal and had been audited
and approved by the governor and
attorney general, and were suhsisting
obligations upon which actions could
be maintained and judgment against
the state secured. Forbis made a Wig

he thought excessive and unconscion-
able charges had been made. MANY
