 REVISITS BISBEE

BsSBEE.-H. B. Heller, who was resident of Bisbee during the early days of the Calumet & Arizona Min. ing company and who afterwards was the first smelter superintendent of that company, starting the plant at Douglas in 1903, was a visitor in the city yesterday, arriving in the after noon from Douglas, where he stop. ped to meet friends.
 After the c. & A. smelter was in working order MT. Heller resigned the position of superintendent and with MT. H. J. Wright opened a min ing engineers and assay office in Douglas, where they enjoyed a splen- did and lucrative business during the booming years of 1904-5-6.
 In 1906 MT. Heller went into the northwest where he was connected with important enterprises and now resides in the state of Oregon. His last visit to this section was three years ago and he declared yesterday that there are so many evidences of growth here since. his last visit that he will not be able to note all he good things before his departure.

MINING ACTIVITY IN
 DUNCAN
Apache Box Properties Sold, and New Strike At Twin Peaks Profitabiy
 Producing.

It is reported that the Apache Box mining properties, located near Dun- can, have been sold to parties repre- senting the Guggenheim interests, and that the new owners will soon institute development work on a larger scale than attempted by the late owners, who were MeSsrs. T. O. Phillips, Craig, Niffen, Campbell and Irwin. A sale of this mine has been pending for some time, and it is re- garded as highly probable that the heavier capital of the present own CTS will result in systematic develop ment. Ky many men familiar with this mine, it is thought that all that is necessary to the profitable produc- tion of this mine is: capital heavy enough to build reduction works on the site of the mine, as the ore is of low percentage, although existing in large quantities.
 The New Strike at Twin Peaks mine has been steadily worked for some time, under the direction of she Fraser brothers, and is yielding a very satisfactory profit. The ore IS being hauled from the mines to York, from where it is shipped over the A.. & N. M. R. R. to the shannon. smelter at this place. The production of ore is small, yet it is understood that through arrangements made by Jos. Fraser, who has recently returped from a trip to Iowa and other states in the North, capital has been inter ested, and that a rapid production IS now q, assured It is said that the percentage of gold in the ore from the New Strike is sufficiently heavy to easily make profitable shipping to the smelters,vr-

ARIZONA COMMERCIAL.

An important strike in the mine or the Arizona Commercial company is reported by Superintendent Boyd. The crosscut on the 18th level, one hun dred feet south of the shaft, has cut a ledge of iron 40 feet wide, well oxi- dized and carrying some suIphides.
 Although this ledge where pene- trated carries but little copper, it is the same ledge which many years ago yielded a considerable tonnage of very rich ore, extracted from shal- low openings on the surface. Appar- ently it is the same ledge which runs through the Gray and other claims of the United Globe mines and which contributes largely to the production of the Old Dominion.
 Drifting on this ledge on the Ari- zona Commercial is now in progress and the management is hopeful of opening up commercial ore in quan- tity-Republican.

plying that amount without strain Mine Superintendent Lawton says that the northwest section of the ore body is in fairly good condition de spite the trouble caused about four months ago by settling of the capping and heavy tonnage of ore is now be- ing drawn from that part of the ore reserves. The work of cutting the system of tramming drifts on the APO tramming level beneath the Captain ore body is going ahead so steadily that it is about half finished and Lawton expects to complete the sys- tenn in about four months Not until the APO level has been completed will work begin on the 395-foot drawing off level, and all the drifting at that depth will be finished before the blocking out of the ore body above will begin.

MARIAN IN FAVOR OF
 GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP
Will Propose That Government Take
 Over Railroads.

That government ownership of rail- roads is preferable to the constantly growing government supervision and control over them, was the declaration made by Representative Mahan of New London. who returned to Wash ington Sunday. "I understand" he said that Representative Stevens of New Hampshire is to introduce a bill Monday, providing for complete gov ernment control over the operation of trains, schedules, speed. hours of labor, equipment, rails. saftey devices, and other features of railroading.
 When that measure appears I will introduce a bill providing for govern ment ownership of railroads. Doubt less reforms and improvements are necessary, but why should the rail- roads be introducing them at the be- hest of the government? It should be much better to have straight govern ment ownership. Then Uncle Sam would see to it that the wages of em- ployes would not be increased be- yond the amount of the railroad rev enues, or else that the rates would be raised Now the railroads are up against the demand for higher wages on one hand and the protest against higher rates on the other hand.
 Why should not the government take over the railroads and make the profit that now goes to the railroads?
 
 ownership railroads, which is pro- fitable- I think every city should own its street railways. gas and electric light plants Moreover every city sit uated on the water should own its waterfront and dock facilities. Such utilities are profitable to the public in foreign countries and they would be in this country.
 By the way" continued Mr Ma han, the Connecticut Deeper Water ways association will have big meet ing this winter. This movement will help bring about the development of the waterways of New England as they ought to be developed. The i'm provement of New London harbor by the state has just begun. I make the prediction that within ten years all the available harbors and naVigable riV- CTS of Connecticut will be improved The Connecticut river will be develop ed up to Holyoke Mass. The Housa- tonic and other streams will be ca naliZed well back toward the Massa- ehusetts line. Other countries are do- ing such work and why should not we? Tn other states principally in the south and west, the waterways are being de- veloped at the federal governments expense; why not Connecticut"
 Congressman Mahan is vigorously opposed to the immigration restriction. bill. work upon which is progressing in the house. He declares that inn migrants make desirable citizens and that the children of even the most H. literate immigrants become the bright est and most successful people in their communities. He holds 1t wrong to exclude such people from this country and declares he will fight to a finish the attempt to put an educational test upon aliens. MT.
