 The solid south Is counted on to give its electoral votes to Governor Wilson. In some states there is much apathy on the part of democrats, born of a belief that they cannot lose, but it Is not indicated that MT. Roosevelt can make serious in- roads into the vote there.

BUcKsKIN OPERATIONS.
Ola Iron Mine Being Exploited by
Those Who Have It Bonded.

]. P. Dickey and associates, who are
operating the old Iron Mine at Buck
skin are pushing the work OF cross
cutting from the bottom of the old
l00-foot shaft on the the property for
the purpose OF cutting the vein at the
100 foot level This propertysis held
under bond and is owned by, Capt.
Shay, who is now operating on Black
Mountain, or as il is now called, YER
ington Mountain The big iron cap
ping Of this Buckskin property can
be seen several miles away and it joins
the Kennedy Consolidated ground on
the east The opinion OF most mining
men who have visited that section of
the district is that it will make mine
equally as good as the Kennedy. The
work being done at the present time
will demonstrate the value OF the
property. no doubt, if it is carried far
enough.

honey is the mar who opened up the
celebrated Minnie Haley mine in Butte,
which afterwards made millions for F
Augustus Ileinze. and he was in the

Should Mr. Mahoney see anything that
suits him in the way of mining prop
erty here he will undoubtedly make
some investments in the district, and
he thinks he can find what he wants.
The coming to lerington of men OF
such standing in the mining world

UNION COPPER HUsTL1NG.
Buckskin Proprty Which is the Max

The Union Copper Company which
is operating the Kennedy Consolida-
ted mine at Buckskin on lease is go
ing after the ore with vim. The sta
lion at the l30 foot level is about com
pleted 1t is understood that con
tract for hauling the ore has been let
and that the ore will be landed at the,
Copper Belt railroad at point about
two miles south of Campbell siding.
This makes rather long wagon haul
but it can be done to better advantage
than by hauling to Ludwig. much
shorter distance, but where the facili-
ties'for reaching the railroad and load
ing are not of the best The mine is
being put in the best condition posi-
bic for big production. and the work
is under the supervision of r. +.

critics in this big district at no dis

this week from his East Walker mine,
reports the mill run of Is tons of ore
the propery very satisfactory. 1t
recently made in he small mill near
demonstrated one thing, and that is
that the ore will have to be treated by
the cyanide process. Mr. Terwillger
has let contract to sink the shaft on
the mine another 100 feet His object
now is to get down to water level and
then put mill right on the property.
And this mill will also have cyanide
plant conneced with it, This will cut
out all the ore hauling and do away
with considerable expense.

NEVADA-DOUGLAS.
Most Attractive Copper Property in
Any District in America.

Archie J. Orem, general superin-
endent of the Nevada Dougas, in
his last report TO the company, says
that October will be the banner month
or earnings for the company In the
Ludwig portion of the mine the aver
age of the ore being shipped is 5 per
cent; the average of the Dougas Hill
shipments being about 375 per cent.
When several connections of workings
are made in the mine the company
will be able to keep up its regular
shipmnts OF ore with fewer men. In
the Ludwig portion o fthe estate the
100 levclis being pushed TO the south
and the breast has been in high grade
carbonate ore for the last 40 feet.
This ore runs about p per cent cop
per The vein is almost solid mala-
chite. In a cross s-cut from the top OF
708 raise about Is feet of chalcopyrite
ore has been gone through that aver
ages from 10 to Is per cent. The com
pany is now in position to square up
all its Indebtedness and begin paying
dividends the first of the year There
will probably be new acquisitions made
to the company's holdings before long
and the erection OF reduction plant
of its own is also being worked out by
the company.
The tonnage shipped to the smelter
this week is 2,Sl0 tons.
