This and other similar expressions
have appeared recently In the press
Of the state, and 1t only remains to
add that these vast areas, as yet un-
occupied and open for entry, are sit
uated largely In eastern Oregon. 1t
therefore behooves this section to see
that the opportunities and resources
with which II IL so bounteously sup
piled, be comprehensiveiy displayed
for the enlightenment and considera-
ton OF the prospective homesteader
and settler.
That eastern Oregon produces in
comparable results from dry farming
has been well demonstrated at the
recent international Dry Farming
congress in Oklahoma. where our ex-
hibits were awarded the sweepstakes
over everything else. 1t was con-
ceded, also, that our grain exhibited
at the Chicago land show surpassed

cu++;no Stone With Shot.

Frequently we have given accounts of the dressing and cutting of. stone, and especially marble. The follow ing is an addition to the processes:
 It is pOpularIy supposed that the saving of stone into slabs or blocks is done by sand and water beneath some suitable tool. But sand and emery have been abandoned in favor of the chilled steel shot. Steel shot is now made so hard that it cannot be bruised or crushed under the heaviest pressure. whereas sand or emery is soon reduced to an inef- fective powder. A piece of work can be done thrice as fast with shot, so that the saving in time makes it's use cheaper than to use sand. The wear on the tool is far less also and there is greater accuracy in the cut. A particle ot sand is effective in saving only when it imbeds itself in the blade, to stand there as a small, sharp tooth, which, removed from the stone be low it one grain at a time and no more A shot rolls over and ove1

The New Cornelia.

As previously stated in these col umns the option on this property at the AjO was taken up by the Calumet & Arizona company on the first day of the month. The New Cornelia com pany is capitalized for $6,O0O.000, divid- ed into 100000 shares of the par value of $5 each.
 At the time the option was granted there were 53O,00O shares outstanding. The option included the treasury stock, which amounted to 67O,O00 shares, and as much of the issued stock as could be secured. This gave the c. & A. an option on practically 75 per cent of the total capitalization, and certificates were issued to the latter company when the payments were made. This payment called for an expenditure of about SSOO,00O, and together with the amount spent in developing the prop erty it now represents an investment of practically a million dollars At the next annual meeting in December d board representing the C. &, 4. inter ests will be elected and the offices re- moved to Calumet, Mich Since the ac- quirement by the c. &, A. of this prop erty the value of the stock has ad- vanced very substantially.
 The survey of the railroad from Tue son to the property at the Ajo is about completed. The distance is about 135 miles and over very easy country for construction. All the in dications are that this road will be built, and if so it will open up lot of very promising mining country out side of it's objective point at the Ajo.

THE AMERICAN MINING CON-
 GRESS.

The American Mining Congress, held in Pittsburg. October 21 to 25, was the most important and representative that has ever been held. There has been more really practical mining men than ever before, and these include in the list mine owners, eminent en- working miner. These cover every phase of the mining interests. includ- ing metallic and non-metalIic products, and undoubtedly more good vii result from this meeting than any previous Tn the past a great many mining men held aloof from the congress on ac- count of it's semi-pOlitical influence but none of this can be charged to this meeting, for it is devoid of any political influence whatever. The con- gress has really become an important factor in mining matters and one that will nave large and strong influence in the future, and especially in legis- lative matters relating to mining, and it may be said that it's value and use fulness has only commenced This meeting attracts the confidence and support of every one interested in mining, and it will attract many new recruits to it's standard. Dr. David w.
 
 views and wide outlook and the presi- dent of the congress, in his opening address touched upon many points connected with mining He especially refererd to the so-called Apex" law as the most archaic that was ever placed upon the statute books. He also inVeighed against the recently passed laws in many western states that placed new burdens upon mining prop erty, and pleaded for the extension of the workmen's compensation acts to all states. Also he made pointed ref erence to the miner and mine owner being thrOttled by a gigantic smeIting monopoly. which he claimed not only dictates the price to be paid for ore. but in some instances how much ore may be produced. Wild cat" promo tiOn also was scored by the speaker who concluded with the statement that the greatest service the mining congress has accomplished has been the assistance given towards the creation of federal bureau of mines. There is a very bright and useful future for the American Mining Congress. It is in the right hands and is tackling the right subjects and from now on we portend great benefits to mining from it's efforts.

THE MINES OF ARIZONA
Really Too Good to Be True.

The Mimbres valley, in New Mex ico has about all minerals that can be dug out Of the rocks, including a huge mountain of tin that has recently been discovered by R. N. Hale of Cam eron, Texas, and William O'Toole of Battle Creek, Mich, the latter having a parcel of land near Mirage, the first station out of Deming northeast on the Santa Fe The boys were prospecting when they discovered the mountain of rock which they supposed to contain tungsten. They sent samples for as say and found that instead of having tungsten they had a good proposition in tin.
 Further investigation was made, where it was found that there were practically three mountain peaks, em- bracing several hundred acres, that were composed mostly of heavy ore bearing tin, which would produce not less than $1O0 worth of tin per ton One or two other samples were sent for assay and the result is all the same.
 According to the experts who have examined the properties, there seems to be enough tin there to pay for large smelter on the ground.
 The ore is also rich in manganese and silica. The black topped peaks can be readily singled out for five or six miles. At the present time there have been about two dozen claims filed and people are becoming interested every day. There are a few more claims that could be profitably filed upOn

PRODUCTION OF GOLD.

The worlds production of gold in creased from 6,320,OOO ounces in 1891. with a value of $13O.65O, 900, to 22,327,000 ounces in 1911, with a value of S461 542, 900. This increase of $50 per cent in twenty years was not due so much to the discovery of new gold fields as to the develop ment of improved processes in ex- tracing the precious metal from low grade ores.

was feasible by any other method. This hard shot is also taking the place of sand and emery in grinding and polishing stones, finishing a job far more rapidly than formerly. No special machinery is required and only the simplest of tools. A strip of sheet iron notched along it's edge like a saw with teeth half an inch high and two inches apart will eat it's way through a stone by aid of the shot at rapid rate.

Revision of the Mining Law-A Protest.

Under this heading appeared very well thought out and cleverly written article in the Bisbee Mining Review. The main contention of the article is that no revision of the law is neces- sary That the federal statutes and local laws cover all our requirements, if only exercised in the right way. Even to the ever-recurring question of eXtralateral rights. It is on this point where so many inextricable difficulties have arisen and there is certainly a good deal to be said on both sides. This question has probably caused more costly litigation than any other. If vein is offset. broken, faulted or split, or thrown out of the line, then the very touchy problem arises as to whether it is a continuation of the vein as dis covered on the apex. But as the writer wisely remarks why enact new laws to complicate those already existing? :? Undoubtedly great caution and care should be exercised in placing new laws upon the statute books The writ CT very lucidly emphasizes that they are entirely unnecessary, and the man. ner in which he presents the facts ren- ders them uncontroVertible.

 easily gotten rid of. In fact, it was
 considered a big relief when flood time

 some mines they have charged them

 The Crown King tailings pile is the
 one to be first called attention to for
 the process of taXability. And this is
 the only process so far discovered to
 extract the values. For a great many
 have been tried but up to the present
 all have been found wanting. How
 ever, late dispatches say the Crown
 King pile of tailings have been pur-
 chased for treatment and that some
 new process is going to extract the elusive values. in addition to the end less chain taxing process. This pile of taiIings is computed to contain about

There are some things they have over looked There is good values in tail- ings that you can extract $1.50 per ton from. Now, if mill refuse is to be taxed why not tax stable refuse? At the present time this is bringing about $15O per load, an equivalent value to a ton of tailings. Then ashes and other refuse that are used in gas producer engines might be levied upon. In fact, there is no end to things capable of be- ing taxed. And it occurs to me that my suggestions (after Mir. Campbell should call for me holding position on the tax commissioner an under study to Campbell. However. the sug- gestions may be carried to a practical issue without my assistance and prob ably they will At the same time would warn the owners of manure piles to be on the lookout and sneak for the heather when the Campbells are com i ing But really speaking seriously I don't know many mine owners that wouldn't rather have the taxes than the tailings, and when they come to pay the amount assessed no doubt there ! will be plenty of OVertures to this ef- 1 feet.

The Seattle assay office, in com mon with other assay offices in western and northwestern states. ceased temporarily to receive gold, in accordance with an order sent out from the treasury department at Washington.
