says he has sure enough mine Eow
that will provide a mill with work
for years to come. This is the prop
erty that was leased to Mccormick
in 1907, and from which, 1t is cur
rently reported, $65,0O0 was extracted
in the course of few months. The
townsite of Helena was laid out and
every indication pointed to boom
when the mine gave out and the
lease was surrendered. Then the
/ Cliffords went to work and found
the property had been gophered to
reach the high grade, and, when that
gave out, the lessee was only too
willing to withdraw. Since then ship
ments of high grade have been con-
tinued periodically, while the mine
was being but into shape for sys.
tematic production. Speaking OF the
mine recently Jim Clifford remarked.
Il have mine at last with a body
of very rich ore that virtually makes
a mine. The ore runs on an average
of $50 ton and specimens have been
taken out that go up into the thou
sands"
The Glendale mine is owned by
Ed Clifford, Sr.. and Ed Clifford. Jr.,
