RENEWED ACTIVITY
AROUND MAGDALENA

There is considerable activity IN the
Las Animas district, near Magdalena,
N. NJ. The new policy Of the manage
ment of the Statehood Mines compa-
ny, the largest corporation in the vi
cinity, is to run custom ore through
it's electric 80 stamp mill. Already ].
Mcpherson has run about so tons from
his Mountain King mine and is piling
up on the dump 100 tons for the mill.
This example is being followed by 9TH
er owners. The Statehood Mines COM
pany is not only running CUSTOM ore
but is operating its mill continuously
and at full capacity as well on ore
from its Snake mine, the upper portion
Of which is known as the Eureka
The Sigma Construction and Devel-
opment company is still developing
the Wicks vein and is drifting north
on its new $40 foot level 1t Is in
some 1921 feet and has opened the vein
four feet wide without having encoun-
tered the east wall. Some nine tons
of shipping ore have been sent to the
smelter with excellent returns. A new
five horse power triplex pump is being
installed.
Hiltscher brothers. are assembling
five dry washers for operating their
large holdings on the old placers Of

Lenox Strike Investigated
and Many Join Hunt
For Gold.

Morenci, Ariz., March lie B. Non
namaker, Dr. G. E. Goodrich, Bern
hardt Gissel r. S. McChesney, Paul
Lenox, J. NJ. Erickson, Charles Ches-
terrified and W NJ. Moberly made
trip to the property of the Frisco Pa
Ger Mining company, and all came
back with about the same story that
there was plenty Of gold in evidence II
it is only saved. Each male trial
at the art of panning gold for them
selves and each one We'd With the
Others as to who would get the most
from a pan OF dirt chosen and washeo
by himself 1t was hard, however, TO
tell who came off with the honers. as
each had convincing proof that he had
gold.
This placer ground has perhaps had
the most thorough prospecting Of any
placer ground in this section for many
wears. as D. A Lenox, the finder and
locator of most of the ground, has cug
numerous holes to test the depth OF
pay dirt, and has decided that he has
tie old bed of the river as tieid in
which to mine. and that there is un-
limited pay dirt.
The company has taken some large
samples to different places 10 be test
ed by different placer mining machlu-
cry, and expects to buy the best saw
date possible to get the best results.
Owing to the fact that the placer
mining fever has revived in this sec
ton, many are talking OF gcing out
after ground they know of and see IL
they have not overlooked something by
being in too big hurry. Among these
are c. D. Shaw. who has been employed
at the New York-Arizona Gold and
Copper company's property for the
past year, and Frazer Mckay, who has
also been employed at the same place
for some time past They have loaded
up their burros and ave gone out 10
follow the lure of gold.
James v. Parks, Walter Doudna and
others, who have gone further down
the Frisco river, have had some disep-
pofntments, as most Of the gold they
found was fine and light, so that they
could not save enough of It to pay
with the methods at hand.

ate with favorable report from the committee on territories. It was reported by Chairman Smith, of that committee, Just as it pass ed the house, so far as Arizona is concerned. and 1t is stated on good authority that in the house there will be no opposition to the imma- terial changes in the resolution re- lating to New Mexico. It is known that majority of the senators are pledged to vote for the measure if .it comes to a vote in the senate. Under the rules of the senate, it now is possible for only small op- position to prevent the passage of the resolution through that body. Arizona has some good friends in the senate, but we fear that deter mined enemies may be encountered. The resolution. we believe. is en- tirely satisfactory to the people of Arizona and we have heard of no resentment on account of the pro vision which submits the recall of the judiciary to a separate vote at the first state election. The sus- pense and doubt will not last much longer, and this paper sincerely hopes that fortunes wheel will turn in favor of Arizona in the senate so that our people may soon taste of the full measure of citizenship and have the privilege of represen- tation in the halls of congress by men who will have vote and voice in all the affairs of the nation.
 Now that the bill is before the senate, our citizens should Lombard that body continuously with their pleas for prompt action and jus tice.
