Candidate for Co. Attorney.

1t would be a mighty good idn
to elect as county attorney a man
who is not in any way connected
with the rather dubious workings OF
present day county politics.
w. p. Brown, the republican can
didate, in this issue of The Trib-
une, asks the support of the voters
for that important office. Mr.. Brown
is above all man who does things.
and if elected, will be found on the
job all the time looking to the in
terests of the people in the enforce
ment of law and order. Mr.. Brown
undertakes whatever duties come
his way with energy and enthusi-
asm. He has made a success of
his private practice and enjoys not
only a large clientele but has many
warm personal gfriends. He has
resided in the county for many years
and has the advantage of practi-
cal training in the school of exper-
fence through association with men

SAN JUAN COPPER
Tom Sparks to Examine Fornouf Group Of Graham County
 Twenty Years Production

New activity in mining circles n Graham county is indicated from the fact. disclosed yesterday that Tom Sfarks is going to make a thorough of the San ] ,nn group cf copper mines as soonn as the process of unwatering is over lt .s for ;he purpose of making this inspection hcrtly that Sparks leaves sc3r for Safiord.
 The mines are famous no tcrlous-in Arizona. For twenty .'nrs they have been among the richest C n- Ter claims in the state. They belong tc the Gila Valley Copper company, in independent concern opor tol and cWned entirely by Graham county men. The claims are looa 'l .. San Juan nine miles north ot Satord, in tie Gila mountains.
 The mines were first operated in 1892. For twenty years. they were producers and then for some reason or another were allowed to close down. It has been two years since they were last worked, and in that time they filled with water. The pro- cess of draining has been going on actively for some time.

it does today. The company now has some ten veins opened on successive levels 10 the 2SO0 level, and numer. ous points cf attack With these num- erous veins under development. North Butte's ore reserves should increase In fact, they are now greater than for several years. The grade of North Butte's ore reserves has been steadily improving for several years, not only in copper contents but in silver to more marked extent. In 1909 the aver age Was IF per cent copper and 2l, oz. silver. while at the close of 1912 it was Az per cent copper and Az o2. of silver.
 As result of the excellent physical condition of the mine the management is contemplating a further increase in production next year ani a minimum of 30,OOo.OOO pounds should be turned out. With the improved operating conditions now in effect at the prop erty, the placing in commission of the new Granite Mountain shaft, with it's electric hoist the better ventilation assured for the north veins and the deep workings. the shorter haul-all important factors tending towards greater efficiency and reduced costs and it is believed that scent figure should be reached in 1914
 Few of the copper mines will close 1913 with such an excellent moving as North Butte. for based on the ;e' suits thus far obtained the company should close the year with earning of close to s4 per share. or double in present dividend rate.

hahza ores encountered in this vein
 between the 1900 and 1900 levels winch made the North Butte pronar. " famous, were wide bodies of bioh. grace ore and averaged from 20 and more feet in width. The widening fl 'he formation with good values dls. closed Tn the recent developments on the deepest level Of the mine ia cr. tainly highly encouraging and indl. cates that there is possibility of this vein again becoming enc of North buttes prominent producers.
 While the strike on the Edith May vein has been the omst important of the recent discoveries, we understand that deve' 'opments of unusual impor,. ance have been taking place on some or inc other veins. These are on the 24o0 level of the Edith May where fl good body of ore has been encountere and is now being opened up at a dis. tance of 200 ft. above the recent strike on the 260O level The work on the uiohuhck Neln continueS to meet with very good results. and in drifting on the vein the ore has shown improve. ment over the last reported 1t. in width, carrying per cent copper anu two ounces of silver. On tine 2,6OO.ft level of the snowball, one of the veins in the northern portion of the mine, the work thus far carried on has been very gratifying to the management and here there is being opened a gooi width of first-class smelling ere high in silver These three developments of themselves are of unusual importance
 It is doubtful If there has been time In several years when the North Butte property has looked as well as

oHIo's COMPENSATION ACT.

COLUMBUS, O.. Jan. 1.--What is pronounced by experts. to be the most advanced workmens compensation net in the United States comes into operation fin Ohio today. The act. which was passed by the last legisla- ture, makes 1t mandatory upon every employer of i've or more persons to protect his workers with State insmr. ance. Under the old employers H. ability laws of Ohio compensation was recovered for only about 20 per cent of the injuries and deaths. Un- der the new act every injured em- ploye receives medical attention and compensation for time lost after the first week of the disability. and in ihe event of his death his dependents are cared for.
 By the State authorities 1t is es- timated that more than 10000 em. rloyers, with an aggregate working force of more than 100000. will be covered by the new law. and that from s3,00O.000 to s5,oo0.000 will be collected and paid out yearly ny the State as compensation to injured and disabled workmen or to dependents of those who are killed in the pursuit cf their employment

NORTH BUTTE
e'r'Se Edith May vein--sisnifieanee to North Butte-increased
 Production Planned

The recent important deyelopmen,, at the North Butte mine which have been responsible for an advance in the stock, We unden md from A re. liable source were confined to the Edith May vein and not to the Snow. ball as has been widely reported. says the Thompson. Towle & Co. News etter.
 The new strike which took place on the 200-ft. level is regarded as a most important one and. owing to the slze of the new developments indicstes that this vein may again be coming into its own and may still encounter the wide rich ore bodies which once made 1t such famous producer.
 In the developments on the 2OOO lev el. the ore-bearing formation is wide and resembles more than at any pre- vlous time the conditions found cn the Edith May on the upper, levels The work thus far carried on. which consists of only short drifts. has been done in two sections of the vein. One has disclosed a footwall streak 10 it. in width carrying 6 1-2 per cent cop per. while in the other working ? ft of higb-grade ore bas been opened While drifting on these new develop ments has only been started and 1t is too early to give more than the brief. est details concerning same. the indi- cations are that they are develop msnts of far-reaching importance

The completion us the mil, according to present calcula. tions, will be simultaneous with tho completion of the power transmission line from Roosevelt. The masses for the towers have been had. but the ma. terial for the towers is yet to bs hauled and set up, and the wires strung. This. it is estimated, vill be done by February. and the wiring at the mine having been done meantime. 1t will only be necessary to connec, up and the Magma mine and mill will be operated on juice ever the Roose. welt line. The wiro gang at last re. ports, had not yet reached Inspiration. but was within five miles of that place.
 With no misshap to interrupt the work now in progress, the plant at Superior will be in full operation with power from Roosevelt in Feb. ruary.
 Last month there were 136 on the payroll at the Magma. February, after the mill Is started up. the pay roll should reach two hundred.
 The Magma Is now shipping co toas of ore a month, running 20 to % per cent copper. There have been car loads shipped that ran almost GO per cent. Formerly the ore was shipped to the shelter at Fl Paso. but now 1t goes to Hayden. a much shorter haul.
 There is now some 10000 tons Of concentrating ore on the dump. This ore will run s per cent. The quantity will be materially increased by the time the mill is ready to start mp.
 The work in the mine now consists principally in driving the fifth. sixth and eighth levels and cutting connect ing raises.

Latter Elect Officers of Their
 Society for Ensuing Year Interesting Historical Event

Arizona Pioneers in session Monday celebrated the golden anniversary of the creation of Ariona.
 Fifty years ago On December 29 1863, Ariona came into existence at Navajo Springs when the proclama. tion was read by Governor Goodwin and the ceremonies of organization were carried out by the handful of officials and others who accompanied t1e expedition from the eastern states. In selecting this historic point for the observance of the congressional act authorized a few months previous. ly, the gubsrnatorial party was said to be in grave doubts as to whether they were on the soil to be included
 wipin the boundaries of the one taken from New Mexico and be ore the matter was officially crystallzed, the pilgrimage hes tatcd in casting
 the die to mould Ariona into exist ence. The argumen, was made ttat the divide had been undoubtedly passed over the day before, but no instruments being available by which the metes and bounds were to be de- linea ed, the scanning of the horizon from an elevated point proved the site as within the sphere of what was 10 be Arizona afterward. Another .eature of Navajo Springs being chosen was the abundance of water for the official party and the few troopers oi New Mexico cavalry who acted as an escort against a possible ambush of the Apaches.
 The scent around the circle when the ceremonies began was an inspir- ing one. The echo of the anvil explo. sions, the raising of "Old Glory" to the masthead. the mutual rejoicing of the small party was patriotic. simple and yet glorious one With Governor Goodwin was k. C.

There were wagons, score of followers on horseback in civil life, who came to grow up with the country, and the military com. mand under Col Frank Chavez of Santa Fe.
 After two days of moulding the fu- ture career of the old territory, the customary legal matters were par tially placed in motion. A judicial dis trict was formed out of the entire area but where to locate the perma- nent seat of government, has yet 70 be proclaimed. On the third day the treking westward started and when point near and to the south of ths Frisco peaks was reached, a detour over the Mogoilon mountains to the Verde valley vas decided upon. Reaching the river. climatic conii- tons were agreeable after wandering tortuously through the snow, and fn- ally Chino valley was reached where the party went into a temporary camp to start the machinery to moving for the future.
