Coal A nd The Tariff.

A new branch of the export bust
ness promises to open up as the re-
suit of the formation of a Dutch sym
dictate to exploit coal mines in AL
ALBANIA and the shipment of the pro-
duct to Holland. The queen is reput-
ed to have invested $75O,O00 in the
enterprise. This coal is bituminous,
upon the importation of which we
levy a duty for the oStesible protect
ion of the miner. although an offici-
al document of this state showed
the labor cost in a ton of coal to be
less than the duty on bitumilous
coal, and not much more than the
present duty. And yet Dutch capt.
talistS buy our coal lands for the
purpose of exporting the coal in
competition with English and Ger.

The fact that ninety babies have
been found dead in bed during the
last year in Des MoineS has Undue
ed Coroner Iva G. Newlen to seek a
law making it crime for parents
to sleep in bed with an infant child
under two years of age. Newlen
points out the fact that one baby a
day has died in Des Moines during
the last year, and it is to reduce
this mortality that he advocated a
a new law. Il am satisfied that of
the babies found dead in bed with
their parents a large percentage

A New Monroe City.

The wonderful scientific progress
that is being made, the spiritual I'M
rest that is being felt throughout
the land has developed one fact
stands out prominently above all
others and that is an individual or
town gets about what is coming to
it. The fact that there is a New
Monroe City in sight, and is about
ready to come into its own, is dem
onstrated by the business men
having clubed themselves to-
gether under a preamble of res
olutions demanding of the many
resources of this vicinity that
they yield ito concentrated bust
ness energy, formulating a new
Monroe City of not less than five
thousand in the next five years. 1t
is no impossible dream, but highly
practicable and any man with busl-
ness judgment can see it. There is
an under current of business ex-
pectation, a manifested faith in our
future, a civic pride and determina-
ton that pressages good and only
good for our town and we stand
ready to take advantage of the Now
and get exactly what is coming to
us, under the great law of scientific
development.
The metropolis of Monroe Coun-
ty, standing where four great Mis-
souri, counties corner, in the very
midst of one of the finest agricul-
tural districts in the world, we are
the natural home of the people of
these four counties with diversified
interests of sufficient magnitude to
make US leading center and one
of the best agricultural and inland
towns in the entire state. To make
a New Monroe City by doubling her
population is no pipe dream, and
the enterprises under consideration
by the Commercial Club which is
composed of nearly every business
in the town, will do it, and the
prospects of very important thing
that we are going after will be &C.
complished, and accomplished in a
very short time. 1t would be well
for some people to understand that
when they oppose the action of the
Commercial Club that they oppose
tifty-one of the leading business
men of the town and instead of be.

Bright Future of Mammoth Mine.

According to William Neagle, who is on visit to Prescott from Goldfeld. Pinal county, where the Young Limit ed Mines company is conducting oper- ations on the old Mammoth mine, the property Is destined to become the leading gold producer of Arizona. This high regard is based on practical observations made by him as a mining engineer, and is supported by what is incontrovertibly in evidence in the ex ploitations made since Secretary George U. Young has taken over the property. says the Prescott Journal Miner.
 Mir. Neagle, who is identified with the company, states that a force of thirty miners is employed and the sinking of a three-compartment shaft in progress. The shaft will be the main working shaft through which the mine will be opened to greater depth. This shaft is now down l3O feet and when the 150-foot level is reache 1 .crosscutting will be started.
 On this property are two distinct veins, in contact of porphyry and granite. Sample tests made from the deeper workings show the values to be mainly free gold, sampling from 25S to .3lS per ton. On the ground is a twenty-stamp mill and ten of these stamps will be started next week on a test run. In the group are twelve To-
Mohave County miner., 1910-07-30

cations, which will give some idea of the magnitude of the combination owned by this company.
 The group was formerly owned by Charles Hall, and under his manage ment the total output amounted to over 7OO,OOOS in gold alone. Owing to the death of Mir. Hall several years ago and the consequent probating of his estate the title to the Mammoth was tied up in the probate court over eight years and until Mir. Young se- cured ownership there was no further production. the property remaining idle in the meantime. The resump- tion of operations is one of the most interesting events in the mining his tory of that section, if not in the en- tire territory.

ing a gross value of 92,SOOs for the months output, says the RhyolIte Herald. The values are in lead, iron, gold and silver. Seventy cars were shipped to the American Smelling & Refining Co. at Salt Lake, and 46 cars were sent to the shelter at Needles.
 The Tecopa company has made a contract with the American Smelling & Refining Co. covering period of five years, for the shipment of a mini mum of 300 tons per day with a maxi mum of 1,OOJ tons daily. This con- tract has just gone into effect, and so far this month the Tecopa company has shipped an average of four cars per day, which is only two-thirds of the output called for in the contract.
 The Tecopa mines are said to be in excellent condition for a large output and it is expected that the required tonnage will be forthcoming soon.
 The Gunsight mine is 700 feet deep. One stope. D by 24O feet, is being car ried above the 7OO-ft. level, and all of this material is being broken to ship. All of the output from the Gunsight is being hoisted from the 700-ft. level.
 t is expected that sinking will be re- sumed from the 700 in a month or so.
 Sinking is in progress below the 4OO- it. level in the Monday mine of the Tecopa estate, and the shaft will be continued to the 5OO-ft. point. An ex- tensive shoot of ore has been exposed on the 400-ft. level.
 The TecOpa company is employing 10 men in each property, and with the outside help required, including the train crews, section hands, etc, there are about l5O men on the company's pay roll. The Tecopa company is credited with an investment close to l,5OO,O ,OOOS for the mines, improvements and railway.
 It is predicted that Tecopa will be- come one of the largest producers of lead ores in the country.

have been prepared showing opera tions under existing conditions. Last year the Shannon made the best re- cord as to both mining and milling costs.
 When he was managing director of the property, J. G. Hopkins, former director, endeavored to get the Scotch management of the Arizona Co. to erect a new shelter, to replace the existing antiquated affair, but to this the latter would not agree.
 The Arizona Co. formerly owned the ground which now comprises the Shannon mine and the latter property was sold for about 750, 0,0OOS to the original owners of the Shannon Co.
 It is figured that substantial sav- ing in costs will result through the joint operation of a new smelling plant, this being estimated at more than one cent pound.
 The identity and control of each company will be retained as hereto fore. Each company will receive pro rata share of the refined yield, based upon the ore contributions of each. The shelter product will find it's vay to market through, three diff ferenC channels: Arizona through United Metals, Shannon through American Metal, and Detroit through Phelps, Dodge & Co.

Yuma Mime Brings Half Million Gold

A Yuma dispatch says: The record of the famous North Star gold mine in Yuma county for the past year shows it to be the second greatest producer of the yellow metal of any mine in the southwest. More than half million dollars in bullion was shipped from this mine for the year ending January 1, 1910, and of the time elapsed, only II months were profitable because of a fire which closed the plant down, The bullion was ground out of 5O-ton mill, showing enthusiastically the char acter of the ore handled.
 One hundred thousand dollars will be turned back on the property to in- crease the facilities for mining and milling. The Golden Star Mining company owns the property. The mine has been turning out a gold brick valued at 5O,OOOS each month during 1910.
