Mohawk produced l1,S90OOO pounds of
copper. Although II is too early TO
state the true cost OF production this

be approximately lie per pound.
A very important feature of Mohawk's
operations for the past year has been
the increase in the yield of the rock.

of copper. while during 1910 it was APP

SOME PARTICULARS ABOUT THE

Ely, New, Jan. Flor the past two
years the Giroux Consolidated COM
pany has been steadily developing its
sulphide ore deposits by churn drilling
and while official information has not
been made public concerning results,
IL has been stated by George l.. Walk
er an authority in such matters, that
the company has demonstrated be-
tween $4,000, 900 and 10000, 900 tons Of
ore Of this class, with an average val
ne from TO per cent in copper con-
tents. which will compare favorably
with any other porphyry deposits in
the United States.
The drills are still busy exploiting
new territory owned by the company
from which splendid results may be
anticipated. Besides these immense
sulphide deposits the Giroux is great

direct smelling ore already developed
in It's Alpha mine. which is now

the 1,O00-foot and 1,200-foot levels, but |
within three months a crosscut will |
have been driven from the l,4OO-foot

will be exploited on that level.

In corporate bookkeeping as a quick

panies showing a balance Of quick as

MARK SMITHS ATTACK
ON DELEGATE CAMERON
CITIZEN POINTS TO RECORD OF
THE LATTER.
hood, Treaehery.

To the Editor of The Republican. Sir:
In the Arizona Democrat of Thurs
day. was published "a letter from Mark
Smith, former delegate to congress The
communication is dated Washington,
May %, 1911, and is valuable only in
showing the spirit of the writer-in
giving him an opportunity to vent his
animus toward Delegate Cameron, a
feeling which has been apparent in
every action of the former delegate ever
since the returns of the 1908 elections
were received
1t seems TO me that ii i'll BELTS the
former delegate to criticize Mr.. Cam
eron. To question the loyalty of the
man who in less than two and one-half
years has accomplished infinitely more
for the people he represents than did
Mr.. Smith in the sixteen years he was
in Washington-and Kentucky.
Mr.. Smith says Delegate Cameron
signed an adverse report on the state
hood bill. The report he signed was
the very thing that every anti-state-
hood republican voted for. He cannot
excuse himself in any way, except by
the direct statement that President
Taft had told him he would rot sign
the resolution. This. when he was
challenged on the floor of the house
he refused to do, and said it was his
opinion Taft would not. Five demo-
cratic members of the committee called
on air. Taft and he told them that
this resolution was satisfactory to him;
so that leaves Mr. Cameron simply the
tool of Hitchcock and the opponents
OF statehood rather than the repre-
sentative of the people of Arizona
The proceedings of the house as Civ
en- in the Congressional Record show
that Delegate Cameron gave. as his
reason for supporting the minority
resolution, his belief that President
Taft would sign the minority resolution
When challenged" on the floor OF the
house by Mr.. Flood, Mr.. Cameron said:
In answer to the gentleman from Vir
ginia. | will state have said Mr.. Taft
will. l believe, sign the minority reso-
luton and | feel that / have excellent
reasons for holding that opinion"
Questions as to whether the presi-
dent had said he would not sign the
majority resolution caused Mr.. Mann Of
Illinois. the minority leader, to remark:
Everyone knows that the president
probably would not sign the resolu-
ton"
After the Interruptions to his speech
had ceased. Mr.. Cameron said: Il would
say that every indication is that Mr..
Taft vii not sign the majority resolu-
ton We must have the signature of
tho president ~ become a state We
want to take the proper steps TO get
that signature"
Would Mr.. Smith have the PEOPLE of
Arizona believe that the efforts of
Delegate Cameron in behalf or proper
