Charles Burke was in the city yes
tcrday on his return from new York
where he was called from Washing
ton by the Geath of his father who
passed away at the age of ninety-one
years.
Mr.. Burke said to a reporter re-
garding South Dakota politics, that
he was somewhat surprised that Sen
ator era wford had declared himself
for La Toilette for president. He
said; r.
Il know that there is very strong
La Toilette sentiment throughout
the west. and while it might be true
that under proper organization South
Dakota would send a La Toilette
delegation, yet it seems to met tina,
the nomination of President Taft is
a foregone conclusion. He will have
the solid delegations of the south
and enough OF the eastern states to
nominate him. it matters not what
western states may do"
When asked regarding his own po.
litical future, he replied that he had
not been in the state since leaving
Washington ten days ago and in this
time had not received a letter from
any person on political matters.

Rich discoveries of gold bearing
rock and important mining deals have
been reported recently from the South
Pass region and from information
available, these reports seem well
authenticated.
The Beck Mining Company has been

The Neodesha mine, Ouray, which
has been idle for some time will re-

The Peters tunnel on Chicago creek.
Idaho Springs district, which has been
idle for two or three years, is being
started up again.
The North Star mill at the foot of
Sultan mountain, Ouray, is now run
ming steadily and doing excellent
work.
Ouray county increased her mineral
output or shipments during the year
of 1910 now drawing to close, sixty
nine per cent over the output or ship
ments of the year 1909.
Some great mines are being made in
the lower San Miguel country, recent
developments on various properties
having proven the existence of big
lodies of marketable ore.
In 1909 there were shipped from
Ouray three hundred and seventy-five
cars of ore and concentrates. For
this year there will be at least six
hundred and thirty-two cars.
There is considerable activity at the
Old Town mine in Russell district, and
large force of men is working in the
different levels of the property and
the production is gaining gradually
over many months of the past year.
1t is reported that the Frank Hough
mine, Ouray, will discontinue ore ship
ments at the close of this month and
all arrangements are complete and
Ilans perfected to carry on an eX-
tended campaign of development dur
Ing the winter.

Jerry Simpson & Co., leasing on the
Lamartine, Idaho Springs, just shipped

leasing on the same mine, shipped
carload which gave returns of $72.23

New Mexico,

During one week in December there
We're shipped twenty-nine cars of ore
from the Lordsburg district.
Several properties in the Red River
district are showing up wonderful
bodies of good ore and work in that
section has been quietly progressing
during the past summer months.
Many rich strikes have been recent
ly made in the mining districts sur
rounding Silver City. In fact, the dis
oovery of new and rich bodies of ore
has become the order of the day.
The Savanna Copper Company con
t'nues it's drilling operations on its
property in the Burro Mountain min
ing district, situated near the mine
upon which its recent rich strike was
made.
During the coming year it is the in
tention of the Gold Frog Mining-Mill-
ing Company, which is now in process
OF organization, to acquire and oper-
ate the Gold Frog group of mining
claims, situate in Gold Gulch in the
Central mining district.
In excess of 5000 tons were milled
during last month by the Socorro
mines, Mogollon district, yielding 27,-
200 troy ounces of refined gold and
silver bullion, and large tonnage of
high grade concentrates. From twen-
ty to thirty stamps are dropping.
The United States Geological Sur
vey reports that the total production
of coal in New Mexico in 1909 was
2,SO5,747 short tons, having a spit
value of $3,619.347, as compared with
2,467, 1897 short tons, valued at $3,36S,-
1853, in 190S-a gain of 337,S10 tons.
or 1871 per cent, in quantity, and of
$250,594, or IA per cent, in value.
New Mexico exhibited the effects of
the revival in the metal-mining indus
try in 1909 by a record-breaking pro-
duction of coal. The increases in out
put were made in ColfaX and McKin-
ley counties, in which are located, re-
spectively, the Ration and Gallup
fields The production in all the other
counties decreased, except in Lincoln
county, which made a small gain.
