RICE SAYS CICERO
SMITH rs PROMISING

John A Rice, mining engineer. of this
city, returned yesterday from a trip
through Arizona and New Mexico.
Concerning the Cicero Smith proper
ties, he said:
Il found there a promising large
vein which the comapny is at present
engaged in developing A shaft is down
100 feet and will go to a depth of not
less than 800 feet. The general indica-
tions are good for a copper, gold and
silver property. The vein on the sur
face is about 40 feet wide The COM
pany has traced it on its own property
about 6000 feet. In prospecting on the
surface good silver and copper ore was
found. but the surface is somewhat
leached; certain portions Of the vein,
however, having been protected from
the weather. Surface samples, where
the management has selected the sam
pies, will run up to $50 per ton. 1t
is expected that when the management
reaches sufficient depth 1t will cross
cut.
"I saw some very fine specimens of
vanadium which had been obtained
from the Yeckley property. a mile or so
from the Cicero Smith property. The
specimens brought in by Mr. Yeckley
were Is percent vanadium and at that
rate the ores, I should say. ought to
be worth $500 per ton in New York
There are only a few clearly defined
vanadium properties IN the country; [
might almost say, in the world One Of
the best known is that of Cutter, n.
M.zWhile yanadium is being used for
hardening and toughening Steel. never
theless we really know very little
about it or the possibilities involved
in the problems of finding vanadium
mines, since it is only lately that we
commenced to wake up to the valuation
of this metal"

SUPERIOR MINES
INCREASE OUTPUT

+ W. F. Payne, of this city. has re-
cefved reports which indicate that the
Superior mines at Lordsburg, n. NJ,
organized by half a dozen individuals
in FL Paso and sold about four months
ago to the Calumet and Arizona Cop
per company have increased their out
put each month over the output OF the
preceding month ever since the sale.
The amount paid by the Calumet and
Arizona Copper company people at the
time was $4,000. and this was re-
garded as a good price for the property
then. but Mr.. Payne says that if the
production continues to increase in the
future as in the past it will indicate
that the purchasers certainly got their
moneys, worth

DAILY GETS OPTION
ON TYRONE GROUP
Shipments of Turquoise Are
Made From Burro Noun
tainS TO New York.

A deal has been closed between
Thomas S. Parker and c. Y. Stewart
and L. A Durham, representing Mar
Gus DAILY, the big copper magnate, by
the terms Of which an option was
given by Parker to DAILY to purchase
what is known as the Tyrone group,
situated at Tyrone, in the Burro noun
tains. New Mexico. The property con-
sists OF 80 claims The purchase price
is private
The Daily people have been prospect
ing this ground for some time past by
means of churn drills. 1t is under
stood that development work will be
actively prosecuted from now on. The
Tyrone group IS a copper property,
and Immediately adjoins the mines
owned by the Chemung Copper COM
pany.

turquois workings. Regular ship
ments Of this valuable stone are be-
ing made to New York city. and there
is not the slightest diminution in
quantity or quality. It is probable
that the indians mined for turquois
in this section before it was known
TO white men The first recorded dis
covery was in 1871 The production OF
turquois is reported as several million
dollars. The Azure company is one
of the largest owners Of property in
the Burro mountains. and has about
200 claims in all The principal por-

HANSEN BRINGS IN
EXCELLENT REPORTS
Activity in the Copper Coun-
try Shows No Cur
tailment

G. 7. Hansen has just returned TO Ell
Paso from the copper country, having
Visited Globe. Miami, Hayden, Jerome,
Clifton and Morenci He said:
AT Globe the Old Dominion has put
in some new rolls in the mill and has
made several minor exchanges in the fIue
sheets, which will enable them to in
crease their tonnage slightly and make
a probable increase in recovery.
AT Miami the new Miami mill is
operating about three sections with $50
ton feed to the section. The mill start
ed off under most favorable mechanical
conditions and has been operating at
practically full feed per section from the
start. The tanks are full of concentrates
and the company has made some pre-
liminary shipments to Cananea. It is
continuing development work under
ground and will soon be prepared to
furnish ore to keep the mill running at
its full capacity. The Inspiration Cop
per company has practically completed
its development work, but is continuing
the drilling. The company is running it's
testing plant on a grade of dump ore
which will probably correspond very
closely to the general run of mine ore
under actual operations. After a de-
termination of the best process Of
treatment the design of the mill Will
progress rapidly and construction will
follow as soon as possible.
at Hayden the Ray Consolidated
Copper companys mill started one sec
ton under a $50 ton feed and has had
no delay in operations since the start
The company has put an extra force
of men to work and will push construc-
ton to an early completion. The power
plant has been operating successfully
and will soon handle the entire mine
load lover the transmission line to
Ray
"At Nacozari the Moctezuma company
has not been disturbed on account Of
Mexican troubles and has been operat-
ing continuously under full capacity.
AT Clifton a committee from the
board of directors of the Arizona Cop
per company from Scotland has been
visiting the plant and will probably
make recommendations towards various
improvements which have been suggest
ed. The new crushing section of this
company's concentration at Morenci is
rapidly nearing completion and will
probably begin work within As to so
days. The Detroit Copper Mining COM
pany is operating steadily and under
full capacity.
I'm a general way there seems to be
no curtailmenc of copper production
and we look for continued prosperity in
the copper mining camps in this part
of the country"

Let Correct Estimate Be Made.

The question of electric lights for
Edgefald is again being agitated. The
town needs better lights and we believe
a majority of the people will favor in
stalling a plant if it can be done for a
reasonable sum. In considering the
matter, the first question to arise IN
the mind of the thoughtful business
man is, What amount of money will
be needed toinstall plant of sufficient
capacity to light the entire town?
1t has been suggested that the nee
essary money for installing electric
lights be raised by issuing bonds. Being
heavily and unjustly burdened with
railroad bonds, Edgefeld people look
somewhat askance at all bonds, yet if
the town should decide to install a
plant as a public utility the issuing of
bonds is the most equitable way OF rais-
ing the money. But before the matter
of voting on bonds is submitted to the
people the council should engage a
competent and trustworthy engineer
to survey the town and make an accu-
rate estimate of the cost of installing
and operating plant of adequate ca
pacity. Until this is done both the
council and the people are entirely in
the dark. So far as our information
goes, there is no one in Edgefeld who
can make such an estimate with any
degree of accuracy.
A small plant that can only generate
electricity to light a portion OF the
town wou ID not meet the approval of a
sufficient number of people to assure
the success of the undertaking. If the
town is to be bonded, all of the tax
payers, including those residing on the
outskirts, should be Supplied with lights.
1t would be manifestly unjust to tax
E. j. Norris, j. VIM. Thurmond or Rev.
P. P. Blalock and then install plant
of insufficient capacity to supply these
taxpayers with lights.
In order that the people may consld-
er and act intelligently upon this mat
ter, we repeat the suggestion that a
competentengineer be engaged to make
correct estimate as to the cost OF a
plant of adequate capacity to supply
lights for the entire town.

Annual Press Outing.

The annual meeting of the South
Carolina press association will be held
in Columbia the latter part of May.
An interesting program has been ar
ranged, the leading feature being the
address of Gov. Woodrow Wilson.
President August Kohn has arranged
a trip to New York by water as the
annual outing. Last year the newspa-
per men spent week in the mountains
of North Carolina, Tennessee and Vir-
ginia. Immediately after the adjourn
ment of the business session in Colum
bia the scribes will leave for Charles
ton where they will board one of the
Clyde line steamers for New York. A
special rate has been made for the
passage and for the stay at one of the
leading hotels in New York. Doubt
less attractive side trips will be ar
ranged from New York.
These annual trips with congenial
friends are oases to which the newspa-
per workers look forward with keenest
delight.
