A Great Power Dam.

R. M. Teague, president of the Chuckawala Development company, and a force of engineers are at Pulls Head, where they will make surveys for a dam across the Colorado river for power purposes. This site was un- der consideration by the U. $. geolog- ical survey several years ago fer pow CT and water purposes and sOundings were made for bedrock. It was found that bedrock was 10 he had in the can- yon at a depth of approximately 93 feet. The dam was abandoned on ac- count of the many projects then under consideration, although the govern ment never withdrew the lands under this project it has lost sight of the fact that the project would be one of ines timable value to the people in this part of the country, as well as those on the other side of the river. Power and water for all purposes could be taken from this dam and thousands of acres of exceptionally rich soil could be irrigated.

No Statehood This Year.

Delegate Ralph H. Cameron wires that the consideration of the statehood matter by this congress is rather slim, as he figures that the certiication of the result of the recent election can not reach Washington until the 5th of March, one day after the adjournment of this congress. By hurried work it is possible to get the result to the at tention of this congress, but it is doubtful if this certifcation will be hurried through.
 There is a strong probability that congress will be called in extraordin- ary session in March by the failure of the Canadian reciprocity treaty and other administration measures, in which event statehood for Arizona would be assured, as the ratification Of the constitution would go before a kindly congress and the president would look upon the measure with kindl.er feeling to placate the insur- gent members.
 Nowhere is there a doubt that the measure will receive the approval of the president and congress. Now that the election is over all the newspapers of the territory. with one or two ex- captions. are in favor of statehood un- der any constitution, a most generous way of taking the matter.

Where The Gold Came From.

Anent the story recently published in the Standard, comes O. F. Kuencer, who was one of the party that made the discovery alluded to, and tells where the gold was found and under what conditions:
 Los ANGELES, Feb 13, 1911. EDITOR MoHAvE COUNTY MINER,
 Kingman, Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 In the last issue of your paper, notice a comment on some article. evi. dently published in the "Standard' and purporting to have reference to a discovery of rich float rock made by Curtiss and myself number of years ago in the Big Bend of the Colorado river. Following are the facts in the case: J. S. Curtiss, Ben Maynard and 1 had been prospecting near Salt Springs, and running short of grub, started back for Mineral Park, to re- plenish our larder, prospecting of course, along the foot hills and while so doing, Maynard found small bould- CT, weighing, as near as I remember now, some twenty five pounds. It showed some coarse gold on the up- per side, and on breaking it open, found coarse gold all through the piece. We camped right on the ground for two or three days and found two more small pieces of float, similar to the large one but not so rich. The large piece yielded nearly 4OOs. We could never find any more of the float nor the ledge where it came from.
 The hill that we found the float on, is about four miles from Salt Springs and about the same distance from Bur TO Springs.
 We found the float in the summer of 1877; neither Curtiss or have been to the place since. Maynard after his re- turn from Tombstone, prospected the hill for about a month, but never found any more gold.
 1oufS truly,
 O. F. KUENCER.
 At the time of the discovery Tom Burke, now a visitor in Kingman, was in the same neighborhood. Maynard exhibited the rock to Mir. Burke and his companions but evaded the issue when they asked him where he found it. The Kuencer party left the following morning for Mineral Park and MT. Burke and his party took their back trail and soon came upon the place where the float was found. A large monument had been built to mark the spot, but although they prospected the bill and the sur rounding country they failed to find any more of the float. The place is about five miles almost due north of the old Eldorado mine and on the top of the big black mountain.
 This Is not the only place in that region where gold was discovered, many pieces of rich float rock having been picked up in and around the Gold Basin section. In the Lost Basin some of the richest ore ever found was taken from the outcrop of veins and as float. The lack of water in the district has kept prospectCrs out, but it is probable that many rich veins will be opened up there in the near future.

Harry Clark, who has been sojourn- ing at Murietta hot springs the past month or so, returned to Kingman last week Friday and left for Oatman the following day. Mr. Clark was fore man of the Tom Reed the past several years and did much to make that famous property the mine that it is to- day. It is understood that he will be superintendent of the Gardner Good rich mines, recently taken over by John Levisy and Col L. P. Hanson. These mines are situated on the noun tain, high above the Tom Reed, and lie under the escarpment of the big volcanic bluffs that rise perpendicular ly to the east of Oatman. The work done on the properties show good bodies of high grade gold ore, and it is believed that these mines will prove equally as good as any in the district. The hanging wall of the veins is rhyolite, while the footwall is andesite. The property is to be equipped at once and work on the shafts will be reshed with all possible dispatch.

Teamsters and Teams Busy.

Every day brings a new team to Kingman to go into the haulage be- tween the town and camps along the ranges. So far there are fully three hundred head of animals now hauling ore and supplies to and from the town. It is expected that before summer there will be four or five hundred head of animals on the haulage routes into Kingman.

It is expected there will be keen rivalry on the part of those in charge of the displays of the counties of Southern California at the Pacific Land and Products Exposition which will be held in Los Angeles March l8- April ?. The opportunity to advertise their resources for the benefit of the more than one hundred thousand tour ists and colonists who will be in that part of the country at that time, is too good a thing for the boosters of South ern California to overlook. The re- suit will be an exhibit of land products worth travelling thousands of miles to see. San Diego, Ventura, In erial, Los Angeles, Orange, Santa Barbara, San Bernardino, Riverside, Kern, King and Fresno will be in the contest for supremacy from a display point of view.

Mrs Rankin Dead.

Mrs. Giletta Rankin, mother of Ed. and Gerald Rankin, died at her home in Kingman last night, after an illness of about one week. Deceased was aged about 7S years at the time of her death. She was born ln the state of Iowa, but had lived the past forty years in Wyoming, coming here about a year ago to keep house for her son. A daughter came with her, and the death of this daughter a few months ago preyed on her mind so much that she was finally taken ill.
 Mrs. Rankin was one of the sterling women that made the great west what it is today, and all who knew her loved her for her many good qualities of heart and mind.
 The funeral will take place to- morrow afternoon, burial being in the local cemetery.

Sheep by the thousands are arriving in this county. It is expected that the total number that will arrive here for shearing before the first of March will exceed 100000 head. This is the fourth year that the sheepmen have made this county their shearing quar- ters and it is expected that another year will witness the installation of machine shearing. It might be the proper caper for some of our business men to put in a big shearing machine and thereby bring the business yearly to this county. The weeds and grass are better than for years past and the prospects for fat muttons were never so good.

 Mrs. s. F. Davenport, Duncan St., Conway, Ark, says: Il publicly rec commended Doan's Kidney Pills in 1908 and at this time 1 am again willing to endorse them. This remedy did me so much good that 1 feel as if other kidney sufferers should know of it. 1 procured Doan's Kidney Pills from the White Drug Go. and since first took them, in 1908, I have rec commended them to several of my friends.
