is THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY DEAD?

The veteran editor, Henry Waiter

ty is dead In an editorial, printed
in the Louisville Courier-Journal,
Mr. Watterson says; Tuesday was
IA proud day for democracy. Nothing
was wanting to give it substance, col
or and effect The old saying that 1t
never rains but it pours was verified
Mr.. Tilden once declared that 1t re-
quires a revolution to loosen the iron
grip, of the republicans and to secure
national victory for the democrats.
Tuesday was a revolution Ground

morable occasion. 1t was an earth

umph Of the democratic ticket, the
most decisive feature of this revolu-
ton is the humiliation of the repub-
ican party It's defeat is even great
ar than that sustained by the old-line
wings in the presidential election OF
E1S52, when Scott the wing nominee
carried but four states. The old

such hold as the modern republican

nant and surprising.

HON. w. r. THOMPSON.

Thompson has been the victim Of
treachery somewhere. We have not
vet been able TO fathom the cause of
his defeat but surely there is good
reason to believe that something is
rotten somewhere. OF course We
know there was fraud in some of the
counties, but yet this does not ex
plain the defeat. Crime and treason
generally leak out and we expect
this election to vet be ventilated. Mr..
Thompson made "a splendid campaign
and reflected great credit upon the
party and the vote of his own coun-
w, one thousand majority, vindicates
his stand ing at home. No one an
ticipated such a thing as defeat and
that 3 why the result creates a sus-
picion that the election was fraudu-
lent and packed against him. Still
he comes out Of the contest clean
handed and has a bright future be-
fore m. He has done much toward
clearing up the frauds Of the Repub-
lican machine party of his State and
will yet gain that distinction which
his great talents entitle him to in the
future destiny Of West Virginia He
has made a great race, and we among
thousands Of others, want to know
how 1t happened in these days of en-
| lightenment and boosted civilization.

.COPSER STRIKE:
At TWIN BUTTE
Twelve Feet Twelve Percent
Copper Is Encountered
on the Queen
Claim
STOPPING is STARTED

One Of the most important cop
per strikes made In the southwest
in a number of years is an ore body
measuring 12 feet wide which has just
been discovered on a prospect owned
by the Pioneer Smelling company. Al
bert L. Waters. MANAGING director.
and located at the village of Twin
Buttes, only 200 feet from the tracks
of the Twin Buttes Railroad company.
Strike on Queen Claim
The find was made on the Queen
claim. which joins the Glance mine
on the west. and word was sent to
Mr.. Waters by his foreman on the
Glance mine, who was also in charge
Of the work on the prospect which
now proves TO be a probable entry in
90 the bonanza class.
Manager Waters visited the prop.
erty Sunday. accompanied BY a west
ern mining mine, who recently came
TO Tucson with a view TO casting his
lot in this region. and who report
ed the details OF the discovery in
Tucson. The facts were confirmed
Sunday evening by Mr. Waters.
Size Of Vein
The smelter manager was pleased
to get the report from Twin Buttes of
the strike. but in the interest of con
seryatism he discounted in advance
the rather superlatiye report OF his
foreman. On examining the property
however, Mr.. Waters found a body
Of handsome copper ore which meas
ured IL feet inwidth or rather ~
feet inches. TO be exact The ore
was carefully examined and it was
estimated by several present that the
entire body would turn out - per
cent at the smelteT. A sample
knocked off indiscriminately was as.
sayed in the afternoon at the smelter
and returned % per cent copper.
Hence it is believed that the estimate
of y per cent is ultra conservative.
Encountered Near Surface
An interesting feature Of the find
is that it was encountered at 4
depth of only 40 feet A former
owner OF the property had made shall
low excavations along the ledge and
had sunk a shaft 10 a depth of co
feet. but without encountering a pay
ore shoot. When Manager Waters
took over the property he put men
to work in the shaft, not to sink
deeper, but to build a working plat
form at a point 40 feet below the
collar. and instructed his foreman 20
send in a cut on the east side of the
shaft. A few shots opened the biz
ore body.
Number Of Tons on Dump
The work of drifting on this ore
is now more in the nature of stop
ing, as all ore that is shot down will
90 to the smelter. A number Of
tons Of ore are now on the dump. and
is the result of only a few days
work OF two miners
The property will be the scene Of
interesting development from this
date.

RAY CONSOLIDATED
Figures Place August
Earnings at s25oooo.

Preliminary figures for August at
Ray Consolidated place the produc.
ton at approximately $3.50 900 pounds
of copper. and estimated earnings at
around S25O,0OO
The grade Of ore treated recently
at Ray has been slightly below that
Of the past few months, owing to the
slopes being in lower grade material
This condition is only temporary and
II will not be long until The ore going
to the mill will be of a much higher
grade than has thus far been treated
at the pronerty. The reason for the
ore on which Ray Consolidated has
been working being considerably ne
low the average. is not generally
known: this is due to the fact that
in working out the ore bodies the
manage ment decided 10 extract a GER
tain body OF ore lying south and
southeast of the Ray-Parsons section.
which has never been included in the
company's ore reserves. This body
contains approximately 100000 tons
and it is estimated that three months
more must elapse before this tonnage
is extracted However. during this
time ore from other portions of the
mine should tend TO bring up the
grade.
Ray is now operating five units OF
its mill. The sixth is completed and
the remaining two can be finished In
thirty days time.
