The Warrior Mine.

The result of the development work done on the Warrior mine since 1t was taken over by Hoval A. Smith has given the management great satisfac- tion
 Work is now being done on three levels, the 250 intermediate, the 800 foot level and the 300 foot intermedi- ate stope On the 300 foot level the the drift being run there Is exposing 10 per cent copper ore. This drift is part of a plan outlined to develop the Warrior mine along the block lines 100 feet apart and the present show ing on the 300- foot 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 val ues well and by means of these stopes, the shipments now amount to between sixty and seventy tons a day. This ore is being shipped to the Fl Paso smell ter. A bout fifty men are employed at the Warrior mine Silver Belt.

Yesterday a car of Chinamen were taken through Yuma on their way to San Francisco to be deported. At this place their number was augmented by the sixteen Celestials who have been confined in the Ynma jail for the past two weeks. In all there were 60 slant eyed Chinamen who. against their will, are being taken back to the old home in China Yuma Sun.
 In the Phoenix land office sixteen residents of Prescott filed locations for 2560 acres of coal bearing lands in Apache county in the white noun tains, each of them taking 160 acres. Under the United land laws, the To- cation made will mean a revenue to the land office of S25, 500 FGrseoaI land entries such as were made, the United States requires the payment within one year of fee of $lO per acre. Ten days ago the party of six teen left Prescott, and going to Wins low secured horses For 100 miles they rode over prairie and through mountains until they reached a part of Arizona little frequented. After looking the ground over, each selected a claim Of 16O acres, and when they had finished their locations practically all of one of the richest undeveloped coal fields in the west had been discov- cred -Repu blican.
 The Interior department has an nounced through the General Land office the date of the opening of the Indian reservation. The date of tho registration will begin on January 5. and the unit for each settler is to be forty acres. At the same time the public lands under the Roosevelt pro- Ject will be thrown open for registra- tion and allotment. There are 9 400 acres for white settlers on the Yuma indian reservation after the indians get their allotment, and AS. 400 ID the RoosevelC project. The drawing will be in Yuma February 6 Yuma Sun.
 What was supposed to be definite information of the time of opening the Yuma Indian reservation, placing it on February 5. has proved to be an error. Immigration Commissioner A. B. Ming telegraphed to Washington and the re- ply dampened the hopes of many who supposed the first information wus au- thentic. The reply of Commissioner Bennett is to the effect that no date of opening the Yuma Indian lands has yet been fxed.-prospecsor.

Big Improvements at the Ray Mine $

Contact for the construction of a main building for its milling plant at it's mines near Winkleman, Ariz has been awarded by the Ray Consolidated d Copper Company. Three to four thous. sand tons. of steel will be used in the erecrIonsof the building, the cost of which will be about $500, ,OOO. The total cost of the mill. including ma chinery and building, will be approxi- mately &. 5OO,OoO and it is expected to have it ready for operation by January l. 1911.
 The daily capacity of the mill will be 5000 tons, and extensive development operation in the mines have been be- sun to provide this large amount.
 Grading for standard gauge rail- road to be constructed between the mill site and the Phoenix & Eastern railroad, distance of three miles, is in progress.
 The stardard gauging of a railroad between the mine and Kelvin, 4 miles, will be completed in 30 0days.-Express

PheIps-Dodge Railroads.

That the Phelps Dodge interests are Burro mountains is denied by H J. Simmons, general manager of the Fl Paso and Southwestern railroad, ac- cording to an interview given the El Paso Herald. Mir. Simmons also denies that the Southwestern contem- plates any further railroad building at this time and when asked why the company has just increased its capital from SIG, 1000. 900 to $25. 1000, ,OOU. re- piled that he supposed It was to take care of the Courtland extension and general improvement work that mad been done of late. including re6alIast- ing some of the track and relaying a great deal of it with heavier steel, as this outlay had been heavy.
 It is reported that the Chemung Copper Company IS supposed to be building the Burro mountain road, and this company is said to have no con- nection with the Phelps Dodge in terests. This company is said to have been formed by the same people who promote the O & A. company of Bis.. bee. James Douglas, in charge of the work for th1s company, did not intend eventually to build to San Diego or at least to Yuma and connect there with the Spreckels line to San Diego, to compete with the Southern Pacific
 "rhe Southern Pacific is not build ing into Douglas and Bisbse so far as 1 know" he replied. "This company is building from Courtland down to Cananea, I understand, but not to Bisbee or Douglas"
 The Southern Pacific already has connection with it's Oananea branch from Nogales at Cananea. but the new line from Naco to Courtland will give it shorter haul into Cananea and will virtually take all the Cananea freight business away from the South western as railroad men here under stand 1t.

Tho Man Who Gets Angry.

The man who gets angry about that a newspaper prints about him should return thanks dozen times a day for what a newspaper knows of him and suppresses. Any fool can find things to print in a newspaper, but it takes a wise newspaper to find things to keep out. A newspaper is expected to speak we'll of every body. boom the town and do lot ot hard work for the "good of the cause" for 1t costs nothing to run newspaper-so too many seem to think. It is fortunate that most publishers are public spirit ed citizens. They do much without hope of reward on earth, content if they see good accomplished through their efforts.-Ex.

Some Copper.

The output of the Calumet and Ari- zona smelter, located at Douglas, was 4 30o. 900 pounds of copper, while that of the Copper Queen, also located at Douglas, was 9,O5O.OOO pounds. The O. & A. production was slightly in ex- cess of August, while the Copper Queen plant showed an apparent fall ing off of 45O,OO0 pounds from the previous months output, though in reality the daily production was prac- tically tn same, the last month be- ing one day shorter than August.
 The Calumet and Arizona plant for the past seven months has produced 30, 652 ,OOO pounds of copper, which is at the approximate rate of 4.378 900 pounds a month or 52 536 99O pounds a year. The ore treated at this plant comes from the Calumet and Arizona and the Superior and Pittsburg mines Assu ming a net profit of cents per pound, there would be return to the stockholders of $2 .OOO,OOO to the two properties for the year or. roughly speaking, Sl.O50 900 for each. The stock of the Calumet and Arizona is principally owned in Calumet, Mich. It is reported on good authority that the Calumet and Arizona management IS endeavoring to secure controlling interest in their nei hbors, the Shat tuck mine and it is admitted that the consum nation of the deal is likely to be announced at an early date. The only thing which seems to be causing a hitch is the matter of price.-Re- publican.
