SOUTHERN ARIZONA
A PROMISING FIELD

The southern Arizona mining dis
tricts, tributary to Tucson, are show
ing up in excellent shape. The Pata-
gonia district is looking much better
than for a long time. Over in the old
Orc Blanco district eastern and Eng
Hsh capital has been interested. In
the Patagonia and Santa Rita dis
tricts there is unusual activity and out
at Mpwry the talk is optimistic.
North of Nogales a few miles John
Hurst and Frank Cox are milling good
shipping ore from the old Buena Vista
mine, shipment of several tons hay
ing this week been made TO the Gus
tom smelter. The Greenwell-Arizona
people, just northwest of Buena Vista
a few miles, are busy developing the
old Golden Rose group Of gold mines,
and over at Harshaw, Frank Powers 3

one of the big silver producers in the
territory. James Johnson, of the Ivan

REPORTS GOLD STRIKE IN
BRADSHAW MOUNTAIN NINE.

B. P. Miller, of the Lincoln mines
in the Bradshaw mountains, Arizona,
tells of a gold discovery in that prop
erty and values will run close to $500
a ton. In giving particulars of the
strike Mr.. Miller stated that a few
days ago. in the oxidized zone in a
drift above the old tunnel a streak Of
two inches of ore was cut that showed
values of $3.50 ton. Since that time
additional drifting has been done, and
in the face IA feet distant the vein had
widened to 10 inches, from which the
high values were returned. This is
the point where a cavein occurred sew
eral years ago when work was sus-
pended, and in order to make deter
limitations when operations were re
sumed few months ago, the old drift
was opened and exploited the splendid
results now established We're in evil
dence. The Knickerbocker Mining
company, incorporated few months
ago, with Mr.. Miller as general man
ager, now owns the property.

DRAW TO-DAY NEW YORK
WILL HAVE VACANCY IN

ALBANY, N Y. Feb. s.-Cnlese
William F. sheehan withdraws his
candidacy for United States senator
the concensus OF opinion here to-day
is that the legislature OF 1911 viii
adjourn without a choice. The next
legislature might then be in a position
to pick Republican as a new assem-
bly, will be,3lected next fall. The fall
ure OF the Sheehan men to make any
inroads on the Insurgents at yes
terday's conference Is taken as a posi-
tive Indication that the latter will re-
main firm In their opposition to the
Buffalo man until the end.
Upstate Democratic assemblymen
realize that they are serving on pro-
baton and cannot be reelected next
fall unless they make a remarkable
record. They say If the present dead
lock continues the assembly next year
will be Republican by majority equal
to last year when 1t stood 104 Repuh-
licans to 4S Democrats This would
make Republican majority on a joint
ballot, although the Democrats would
remain in control OF the senate.
The Sheehan men take the stand
that 1t is not question OF Sheehan
but one of party organization. The
tail shall not wag the dog" is their
argument. and Tammany Leader Muir
ply keeps right on the job TO see that
il does not.
