Boston, Nov On the face Of the
returns from 954 out Of 1870 election
districts. the Democrats won the state
election, today, and kept Massachu-
sets in the party column by contin-
uing Gov. Foss in office for second
term. The margin was the narrewest

close Of the polls. TIE election hung IN
the balance
The Republicans refused to concede
the defeat of Lieut.. Gov. Louis A.
rockingham as late as midnight, and
a that time it was mtimated that
statewide recount would be necessary.
The Republicans based their plea for
Frothingham' election on the ground
that the national administration should
be supported in It's tariff policy and
that a Democratic victory would mean
a blow to the textile industries of the
state. They also hurled many shots
at Coy. Foss and his administration

MICA MINE IN THIS
COUNTY RECORD ONE
Is One Of the Largest De
posits of the Kind
Known.

Reports received IN this city from
Pecos indicate that the mica mine To-
Gated near Van Horn, about 100 miles
east on the Texas & Pacific railroad
and within the boundaries of the old
county of Ell Paso. is far richer in de-
posits than at first supposed. zone re-
port stating that 1t is one Of the large
sst mica mines known in the world.
One of it's deposits is 1S5 in width, is
over a mile in length, is over 500 feet
in depth.
There are at least seven we'll defined
deposits or veins on the property. Some
Of the sheets Of mica, which have been
found are said to be geological and
mining curiosities owing TO their size
Sheets Sc inches in length by "a inches
in width are often taken out, and the
workmen state that by taking especial
pains far larger sheets of mica could
be procured. There is no market for
extremely larger sheets, however, and
hence no especial inducement for the
exercise Of unusual care in the mica
mining.
Some Of the mica schist is now being
concrete. This micalithic finish is be-
ing tested on several buildings in FL
Paso. So rapid has been the develop
ment of this mine. which may be said
to be almost a local Ell Paso industry
that a recent shipment of mica of 25
carloads is reported

BROWN ARRANGES
TO BUY TWO MINES

H NJ Brown, president of the Ches-
terrified Copper company. in the Tue
son region, Pima county, Ariz-, has
arranged for the purchase by the Ches-
terrified company of the Protection and
Glance mines, the former being a north
east extension and the latter a south
west extension Of the Esperanto mine.
The Esperanza has been developed in
ore below the 300 foot level. and this
is in a true fissure. The face Of the
northeast drift in the lower levels is
in this fissure, all in good silver, lead
and copper ore. This fissure vein runs
directly into the Protection mine.
Aboutf IS feet from the Esperanza line
on the Protection a prospect shaft has
been sunk which encountered the Es-
peranza vein. A two compartment
shaft will be put down.
The value Of the ore taken from the
Esperanza may be appreciated when it
is known that the last carload shipped
from the lower levels gave a net re-
turn of $1,000. Over $4,000 has been
taken from the Esperanza and 1t is
estimated that there is much more
than this value in sight or blocked out.
The Glance mine on the southwest
extension, into which the Esperanto
fissure extends. embraces this ore
ground. and is also an important adj
dition to the Chesterfield property.
The Chesterfield is equipped with two
gasoline hoists, one of % and the 9TH
er of horsepower

The Old Dominion mine at Globe

During November Of last year the
cost was only SIS cents per pound,

MEXICO THE. COMING
COUNTRY, SAYS KANE

John I. Kane, a mining engineer from
Butte, Mont, is in the city. About five
years ago Mr.. Kane spent Is months in
Mexico at Velardena near Torreon. He
has visited that country once since that
time and while he has not been south
of the Rio Grande since the outbreak
of the socalled revolution he, neverthe-
less, believes that Mexico is the coming
country, so far as the mining industry
is concerned.
Mexico is wonderfully rich in
mines" he said. II believe it to be
the most highly mineralized section on
the face of the globe. Against the
wealth stored in mother earth armed
men Will fight in vain. for it is only
question of time before these trou-
bles must end. and when they do end
l believe that the mineral output will
be greater than ever. The world had
just commenced to wake up to the
mineral wealth Of Mexico when this
revolution commenced, and now that
the people are wide awake they are
not likely to forget because OF a few
months fighting?"

KNOWS NOTHING OF
PROPOSED SMELTER

Reports which have been widely cir
culated TO the effect that the Amer
lean Smelling and Refining company is
contemplating the erection of a smell
ter either at Juarez or Nuevo Laredo,
are unfounded, according to F. c. Earle.
According to the reports the new plant
would be devoted largely to the smelt-
ing of lead ores from the republic Of
Mexico. One account is that the Border
Natural Gas company is even rushing
work in attempts to pipe gas from a
point % miles from Laredo across the
Rio Grande to Nuevo Laredo for the
purpose of furnishing fuel for this new
lead smelter. And this, too, in spite of
the fact that in the long drawn out
suits in the United States courts at
Buffalo and Detroit and the Canadian
courts at windsor and Ottawa, the trend
of court decisions was to Nhe effect
that 1t was not legal and not in keep
ing with public policy to permit the
piping of natural gas from one country
to another.
When F. c. Earle, manager of the FL
Paso Smelling works was asked con-
corning the report that a lead smelter
might be erected at Nuevo Laredo or
Juarez, he said that if any such a
movement was planned by the Amer
lean Smelling and Refining company
he had not heard Of it.
