BRADEN MILL IS
READY FOR WORK
First Unit With Capacity Of
Thousand Tons Daily Is
All Complete.
YEATMAN IS BACK
FROM THE MINES
Twelve Million Tons High Grade
Milling Ore Now Are
Demonstrated.

Pope Yeatman, consulting engineer OF
Braden. who has just returned from the
mine, informs us that he Is particularly
pleased with the development and con-
struction work now in progress at the
property, and that at the mine the pos
sibilitles are excellent for the ultimate
Development of a greatly Increased ton
mage, say Thompson, Towle & Co.
Good progress has been made on the
new 300o-ton concentrator. and cable
dispatch is looked for daily stating that
the first unit Of 1000 tons has been placed
in commission. At the company's hydro
electric installation. the ditch line is COM
pleted and the water has been turned In.
The transmission line Is UP and one OF
the generators is in position but not ad

5000 kiloWatts,

At the mines, the estimate OF ore re-
serves has not been revised and the fig
ures stand as OF April OF this year. when
the property haa 12,o0o,oOo tons of ore
the mine workings. however, are daily
adding new tonnage TO the reserves, while
others are changing probable into devel-
oped ore, A revised estimate OF the re-
serves will be made when the No. For
tuna tunnel has advanced further and is
we'll into the ore body.
Probably the most slgnlncant feature
In connection with the ore bodies at Bra
den is that they are unquestionably of
primary origin, which is indicative Of
persistence in depth.
Up 10 the present time ali the tonnage
which has been estimated and nearly all
OF the important developments which
have taken place al the Braden prop
erty have been confined to the Fortuna
mine. At the Teniente mine, however.
very important developments are taking
place, for after extensive work at this
mine In the oXidlzed material, In the
driving Of long tunnels. sulphide ore was
recently encountered and at last ac-
counts 20 meters had been penetrated
in the No. l tunnel assaying 4 per cent
copper.
Outlook Is Bright.
The outlook at Braden for future de-
velopments Is particularly bright, for In
addition TO the probable downward ex-
tension OF the ore bodies In the Fortuna
mine. there is the Teniente practically
undeveloped In the sulphide zone, and

Nature as Prospector.
People have asked me repeatedly how

said before, that nature has done deeper
prospect work in the San Juan field than

distance some eight or nine sands. the
deepest or last exposed being the Hena-

LETTER FROM DIR. +. {. KEFAUVER
TO THE VALLEY REGISTER.
An Endorsement of Senator Matthias by
a former Middlet0wn Boy. who is
Nav His Eellow -toNnsman

a former MiddletOwn Boy, who is
Now His Fellow-townsman.
EDITOR OF THE VALLEY REGISTER.
DEAR SIR
| notice the papers are full
of letters speaking of the good qualities
of the various candidates for office to be
elected at the coming election. | am
actuated by the purest motives and i'm
pulses to speak word in behalf of one
who is a candidate, and who is worthy OF
any good thing that might be said about
him. 1t is indeed a real pleasure to hold
up before the public man whose char
acter is untarnished and whose political
career is without reproach.
| refer to Senator John P. T. Matthias,
of Thurmont, who is candidate for re-
election to the State Senate from Fred
erick county. | have known Sen. Matthias
for twenty years and have always found
him the same each day we meet him and
true to every duty and to Him who gives
to duty its reward He is greatly beloved
by the people of his town and community.
When trouble or sorrow enters their
homes Senator Matthias is always first to
offer assistance, and he has proven him
self to be a friend indeed to all, the rich
and poor alike. | have been deeply i'm
pressed with the genial Senator's kind
ness and goodness in so many instances
and to everybody needing sympathy and
help. When misfortune overlook me and
in my recent illness the Senator was the
first who came to my relief and l can
never repay him for the many acts OF
kindness shown to me and my family.
! This is only one of the many instances
that know of.
The Senator is deeply interested in the
work of the Church, Sunday School,
Christian Endeavor and Children's Aid
Society and has always been power for
good in the community.
Everybody is familiar with his record
in the Senate and knows that Mr.. Matthias
always stood for those measures that
were for the best interests of his con-
stituents.
.. The Republican party is to be congrat-
ulated in having such a representative OF
good citizenship and craftsmanship as the
candidate for the State Senate and il
elected las he will beg he will represent
the best interest Of the people of Fred
erck county.

NOVEMBER 80 TO Be DAY
OF THANKSGIVING.
President Sends Out Annual
Proclamation From Chicago.

President Sends Out Annual
Proclamation From Chicago.
Chicago, Oct. 3d. President Taft to-
day issued his annual Thanksgiving proc
lamation, calling upon citizens OF the
United States to celebrate Thursday,
November 80, as day of thanksgiving
and prayer. The proclamation reads as
follows:
1.-The people of this land, having long
sanctioned and by practice set apart to-
ward the close of each passing year
day on which to cease from their labers
and assemble for the purpose OF giving
praise to Him who is the author OF the
blessings they have enjoyed, it is my
duty as chief executive to designate at
this time the day for the fulfillment OF
this devout purpose.
"Our country has been signally favor
ed in many ways The round of the sea-
sons has brought right harvests. Our
industries have thriven far beyond our
domestic needs; the productions of our
labor are daily finding enlarged markets
abroad. We have beer free from the
curses of pestilence, of famine and of
war.
"Our national consuls have furthered
the cause of peace in other lands, and
the spirit of benevolence has brought us
into closer touch with other peoples to
the strengthening of the bonds of fellow
ship and good will that link US to our
comrades in the universal brotherhood Of
nations.
"Strong in the sense of our own right
and inspired by as strong sense of the
rights of others, we live in peace and
harmony with the world. Rich in the
priceless possession and abundant re-
sources wherewith the unstinted bounty
of God has endowed us, we are unself-
shly glad when other peoples pass on
ward to prosperity and peace.
THAT the great privileges we enjoy
may continue, and that each coming year
may See our country more firmly estab-
lished in the regard and esteem OF our
fellow nations, is~the prayer that should
arise in every thankful heart.
Wherefore, |. William Howard Taft,
President of the United States of Amer
lea, designate Thursday, the Both day of
November next, as day of Thanksgiv-
ing and prayer, and | earnestly call upon
my countrymen and upon all that dwell
under the flag of our beloved country
then to meet in their accustomed places
of worship to join in offering prayers to
Almighty God and devout thanks for the
loving mercies He has given US.
"In witness thereof, | have hereunto
set my hand caused the seal of the Unit
ed States to be affixed"
Done a. the city of Chicago this 3Oth
day of October, in the year of our Lord
one thousand nine hundred and eleven,
and of the independencesof the United
states of America the one hundred and
thirty-sixth. By the President,
