With bins full of ore, furnaces
charged, steam up, the turning of a
cock, a hiss or two and off she went
working from top to bottom with the
smoothness of a clock. There is
nothing in the west superior in the
smelling line, considering the capac-
ity, than this first unit of the Clara
Consolidated. With the addition OF
the second unit of $50 tons, which is
now being contemplated, there should
not be any complaint in this commun-
ity for the lack of adequate facilities
for the reduction of ores.
In itself the old Signal, the prize
property of the Clara Consolidated, ac-
cording to all reports is developing
into a wonderful mine. With various
shafts large bodies of ore are being
defined and the three-compartment
vertical shaft is now near the 500 level
Measuring up the various workings
that show ore there is estimated to be-
more than three and one-half million
tons of ore in sight, and by the trend
and size of the ore shoots there is es-
timated to be twice that amount in
easy access.
This is only one property of the
more than 15O owned by the company
The Clara and the Moro are two free
gold properties that are valued highly
by the company for the yellow metal
existing in their ores, and there are
dozens of others equally as good.
The early fall will witness a bvsy
scene at Swansea. as at that time it is
expected that the company will have
sufficient equipment to feed the ca.
pacious mouth of the smelter for an
indefinate period.
The completion few months since
of the Swansea railroad places the
town within easy access with the
public, and now a trip TO the greatest
copper camp in western Arizona is
fraught with more pleasure than
otherwise. .-Par.:er Posi-.

Strong Flow of Water at the Twin
Buttes.

There is glee AT the Twin Buttes
mine today, according to Thomas
Fraser, manager of the property, and
it is all due to the encountering of a
strong flow of good water at the 800
foot level which was reached this
morning. Heretofore. the camp has
depended upon Hart's well for its
supply and the water has been hauled
several miles by rail. Now there is
enough in the mine to keep the pumps
going and serve all the camps needs.
BY the time the llOO-foot level is
reached, Mr.. Frasher believes the
water supply will be great enough to
keep the mill in operation and take
care of all the other needs of the mine.
AT 1000 feet the level of the Santa
Cruz river will have been reached

Tunnelins At Georgetown Is To Be
Resumed

A Georgetown dispatch says:-Work
will be put under way shortly after
the first of the month at the George
town tunnel, the portal of which is
situated on Columbia mountain. G.
G. Breitenbach of Chicago, the moving
spirit in the enterprise, has just spent
several days in camp in going over the
situation. He states that funds have
been provided-in fact, enough money
is now in the treasury to insure the
driving of the crosscut 1000 feet.
This proposition first came into the
limelight about two years ago, or at
the time the Sigafoos boring machine
was brought to Georgetown to be tried
out. The machine so far has not been
successful, and for that reason the
Georgetown Tunnel transportation
company has decided to at once install
a compressor plant.
The driving of this tunnel means
that Columbia mountain, a section
long neglected from a deep mining
standpoint, will be explored. 1t is
doubtful if there is any property on
the hill that was ever explored to a
depth exceeding 300 feet, and for this
reason the people of the district are
greatly interested.
1t is the intention of the operating
company to drive 1000 feet, when a
bend 10 the left will take place, and
Democrat mountain explored at a
depth never dreamed of by early-day
operators. When the heading cuts un-
der the saddle of the hill a vertical
depth of $500 feet from surface will be
attained. All of the mines of that To-
cality will be intersecUed, including
the Mineral Chief, Astor, Sunburst,
Wolverine, Lucky Hesperus, Rogers,
Government and Polar Star, with 100
or more smallar properties that have
good production records.
With the Georgetown tunnel being
driven into Columbian mountain, the
Capital tunnel piercing Griffith and
every prospect that the Kelly tunnel
will be advanced for several Thousand
feet, the mining outlook in this district
is vastly improved. Again there is
a rumor in circulation that a deal is
pending whereby the Doric tunnel on
Saxon mountain will soon be the scene
of something big in a mining way, the
details Of which are not at present to
be given to he public.

The railroads have won their first
victory in the findings of Judge Otis,
who was appointed master in chancery
to take the evidence in the railroad
rate cases, which involve the validity
of the two-cent fare law and also the
commodity rate law. The decision of
Judge Otis contains two points of vital
Importance in the matter of lower
railroad rates. In determining the
valuation on which the railroads are
entitled to a fair return he takes the
present value of the property irrespec-
tive of the first cost, which was
much less. The danger in this position
is that as railroad property becomes
increasingly valuable, more stock can
be issued on which to demand divi-
dends. This would mean an endless
chain of stock imitation. The other
point which would practically do
away with any state authority over
rates is the finding of the judge that
the state has no authority over the
rates of railroads doing an interstate
business when the domestic rates are
put so low as to affect interstate
rates, as interstate rates are sorely un-
der the control of the federal govern
ment. This decision will still have to
be upheld by the circuit court and the
supreme court Of the United States
before it becomes final but it will in
the meantime supply good deal of
provender for the politicians during
the coming campaign. The country
is not going to the bow-wows on ac-
count of this decision, for it is only
one of the steps in a series which
will finally define where the real con-
troll over freight and passenger rates
rests. When that question is solved
and the power is vested is some
authoritative board, we will begin to
have fair and equitable railroad
rates, and hardly till then. All this
will take time, but it is impossible for
us to believe that the courts will
in the end say that there can be no
control ovcr rates at all.

The recent primary has started The
usual agitation that the primary law
needs fixing. Of course the agitation
is most pronounced in those counties
where there were warm contests and
considerable voting by Democrats in
Republican primaries or Republicans

should at least be amended to require
that candidate receive a certain per
centage Of the normal vote of his par

The third annual report of the state

"After four years of feeding on poll
tical husks Traverse county has once
more secured a good plump ear from
the legislative corn crib," says the
Wheaton Gazette-Reporter. The
metaphor is somewhat mixed, but we
presume Editor Joubert meant to re-
mind the voters of Traverse county
that in the past two campaigns they
have been comparable to that youth
full parsonage, famous in parable,
who decided to transfer the scene of
his activities from the parental home
into the far country. His lack of
wisdom in that respect has become
proverbial.
However, we congratulate Traverse
county that after four years of "feed-
ing on political husks,' they will
now be signally honored by having
the presiding officer of the senate and
one of the most influential senators.

James Gray, Democratic nominee
for governor, made his keynote
speech at Fergus Falls this week. He
declared that if elected governor he
would recommend county option law
to the legislature, which was bid
for the county option support. He also
made it a point to bid for Republican
support by praising the progressive
Republicans who are advocating mea-
sures now popular, and he also used
the soft pedal on Democratic doc
trines. However, the speech was
we'll adapted to accomplish its purpose
and we do not mean to intimate that
Mr.. Gray is political trickster in
speaking as he did. He is out to get
votes, and it now looks or begins to
look as tho he would get enough to
make at least very creditable show
ing in November.
Morris tribune., 1910-09-30

Both sides of the county option
controversy agreed that the question
was settled at the primaries, and each
claims to be sure of enough votes to
control t he legislature. This means
that the vote will be very close, and
that the question may not be settled
until after election and perhaps not
until after the legislature meets.
County option has made wonderful
gains over two years ago, and will
continue to develop strength. The
large corruption fund which the Ii
quor interests will have at their dis
postal this winter will be a source of
weakness rather than of strength on
account of the undesirable company
in which the honest opponent of
county option will find himself plac-

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER so, 1910.

James AdIard, of Browns Valley,
the Democratic candidate for the
house from this district is out with a
statement of principles in which he
says, among other things 81 believe
that the laws regulating the liquor
traffic in this state are adequate, if
proprely enforced" Mr.. Adlard has
in these few words not only stated his
position but also proved its fallacy.
The liquor laws of this state will
never be properly enforced so long as
the liquor interests are as powerful a
factor in politics as they are today,
and they will continue to be power
full factor so long as the laws remain
as they are. Any interest which will
assume to dictate not only how laws
shall be enforsed, but even what
laws the legislature shall pass is sad
ly in need of curbing.
