j. F. Coffey, owner of the La Fortuna
group, in the Oatman field, and south
of the Gold Dust, is developed by two
5O-foot saafts and tunnel. There is
an enormous shoot of excellent ore un,
covered, which carries gold values of
from IS t. l2S, and the vein is from
1-2 to feet wide. This is one of the
very best pieces of property in that
section.

GOLD ROAD MINE.
More Than $4,000 Feet Of JudIcious
Underground Exploitation Of the
Large Ore Shoots.
An Enormous Tonnage Of Rich Ore
Disclosed in the Lowest Le-
ve!s Of the Mine.
Large Dividends For Years to Come
Actually Blocked Out and Now
Fully Disclosed.

For more than ten years the great
Gold Road mine has been worked and
it has produced an enormous amount of
money. While it is fact that for the
first seven years it was worked in a
more or less desultory manner, it has
always had the ear-marks of big gold
producer.
When it was originally located exceed
ingly good values were noted and it
has continued up to the present time
to show exceptionally good gold con-
tent. At the time this location was
made it was necessary for a mine to
show good values at the surface, other
wise the prospector would pass it up as
of no value whatever. He must see q
string of gold in the pan or the ore was
not entitled to be located.
The old shaft was sunk to depth of
900 feet and levels opened up every 100
feet and the new and at present main
working shaft, was sunk 500 feet and
opens up the Billy Bryan, Line Road
and Gold Road veins. At every 100
feet drifts were advanced on the vein
and in all these workings exceedingly
high grade milling material is disclosed
and number of very rich shoots have
from time to time been cut into.
About three years ago the property
was taken over by the United States
Refining, Smelling and mining company,
and since that time has been under the
personal management of D. R. Muir.
1t has been continuous producer since
then and has yielded an average of
80, COOS per month in gold.
The Gold Road has an enormous
tonnage blocked out; sufficient indeed
to continue this very large output for
several years to come. There is more
than $4,000 feet of underground work
on the property.

What Would You Do?

There are many times when one man
questions another's actions and motives.
Men act differently under different
circumstances. The question is, what
would you do right now if you had a
severe cold? Could you do better than
to take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy?
1t is highly recommended by people
who have used it for years and know
its value. Mrs. o. E. Sargent, Peru,
Ind, says, "Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is worth its weight in gold and
| take pleasure in recommending it.

Visitors Shy This Year.

By the middle of October the streets
of Phoenix and other Arizona cities
are usually crowded with new faces,
but 50 far this season it has been
pretty much the same old crowd. w.
M. Fickas, president of the Greater
Arizona League, offers a novel eX-
PLANTATION for the present dearth of
visitors, whether tourists or permanent
home-seekers.
"People in other sections of the coun-
try are receiving distorted reports of
some of our proposed new legislation, y
Mr.. Fickas said. "Some inquirers of
our league seem to think the eighty per
cent citizenship bill is already law,
and that we are not welcoming new
corners as usual. The 80 per cent bill
does not 60 quite that far, but there is
no doubt that it goes far enough to
injure US greatly in other parts of the
country. The same is true of the anti
blacklist bill. 1t would be different in
deed for anyone to exaggerate the
provisions of the latter measure, and
residents of other states who desire to
secure employment here are asking
with good reason if their credentials
will prove worthless

compound. In line with this argument
we have to quote from the New York
World. taken from reports of correspon-
dents in the dry States:
The story is the same everywhere.
When the lawful saloon is closed. the H.
licit sale Of vile liquors and injurious drugs
increases. Society loses more than it
gains by the change" This is the story
everywhere. The bootlegger does the
business. the State gets no revenue. and
the prosecutions of violators will be
menace to the business Of the State courts,
as is the prosecution of violators of the
federal law a menace to the standing Of
the federal courts.
Mohave County miner., 1914-10-24
The Licensed Saloon
or the BootIesser.

The MINER and its editor have nothing
in common with the marketer of liquor.
but we do believe that the sale of that
commodity can better be controlled by
license than can it be extinguished by
what is called State Wide Prohibition
During our long residence in Arizona we
have observed that no prohibition Of the
sale of liquor has ever proven effective.
Uncle Sam has placed heavy penalty on
the sale Of liquor to the Indians. yet during
the quarter year ending the last day Of
June there was arrested in kingman 80 men
charged with selling liquor to Indians, the
penalty is from sixty days in Jail to three
years in the federal prison. And yet men
are found that for two bits will take a
chance on going to the pen. What
chances will men run when there is an op-
portunity of making thousands of dollars
by the illicit sale of liquor in large quanti-
ties, should by peradventure the state Of
Arizona go dry. In Kansas men in the
wholesale bootegging business have re-
tired to their big farms with bank balances
ranging into the hundreds of thousands of
dollars 1t will be the same in Arizona in
the event that the drys carry the election,
and while the State will have to bear the
burden of innumerable prosecutions there
will be no revenue coming from it Dur
ing the past year the United States Court
for the State of Arizona has had to try
nearly one thousand cases of violation of
the federal law prohibiting the sale of
liquor to Indians, and so bold and open
has become the practice that congress has
been asked to take more drastic measures
to wipe the bootlegger out.
Five years ago the State of Kansas
adopted the same law that is now being
proposed in Arizona. Last year there
were issued by the Treasury Department
of the federal government six hundred
licenses for the sale Of liquor in that state.
These six hundred places furnish all the
boose that the bootlegger may need.
Every dry state in the Union has the same
condition to record. Georgia, under pro-
hibition, has LIZ federal liquor licenses,
Tennessee 2,ll0. Alabama 1919. Into
these dry states 100000 gallons of
liquor go every year, and at that the vilest
rot that was ever turned out. This state
ment is not from the press of the liquor
interests, but from the report Of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, which cam
not be said to be in league with the saloon
keepers.
Now, we are opposing prohibition be-
cause we believe in the absolute control of
the sale or liquor by high license and
police regulation. We are opposed to the
bootlegging business. not only because it
is unlawful, but because it places in the
hands of drinkers the viIest decoction of
alcohol and drugs that it is possible to

Charles W. Lynch, a Very
Creditable Commissioned.

The Northern Arizona Fair, at Pres
colt, was great success according to
Chas. w Lynch, the Commissioner from
Mohave county. Mr.. Lynch was ap-
pointed by the Supervisors on account
of his special fitness for that position,
and he certainly made very creditable
Commissioner.
All the counties in Northern Arizona
were represented, but only Yavapai
and Mohave had mineral exhibit.
The bullion and copper exhibits from
the United Verde and the Humboldt
smelter were exceptionally good.
Our Commissioner, Mr.. Lynch had
the honor of drawing down the Special
Blue Ribbon for the best arranged ex-
hibit. This exhibit was so arranged
that commencing on the north end of
the river range and going south the
ores from the different mines were ar
ranged as you would come to the mines.
And this was also true of the Cerbat
and Wallapai range.
The Fair lasted three days, 18th,
18th and 18th, and the United Verde
drew the first prize in Yavapai and the
Humboldt smelter the I'd prize for the
mineral exhibit: Mr.. Lynch thinks
that the Humboldt smelter should have
had first prize for it really had the best
exhibit.

J. A. Warner, an old time miner and
prospector, has done considerable work
on the Secret Pass recently. The
property is developed by tunnel 40
feet and 3OO-foot tramway has been
installed; also great deal of road work
has been done. The vein is IA feet
wide and general average values of 12$
per ton, though assays have been had
as high as COS. On the surface care
full sampling of the outcrop returned an
average of 12$, but shows better values
as depth is attained.
Arthur Van Zant and VIM. Esser own
the B. & A. group of the three claims
and are now at work developing several
rich ore shoots heretofore uncovered on
the surface. On No. l claim a 12-foot
hole has been sunk and Nos. and 8
only surface work has been done. At
a depth of IL feet on No. the vein is
5 feet wide and carries values of sos in
gold per ton. Van Zant and Esser are
thorough miners and have had many
years experience in the big camps of
the West.
On the Valentine J. J. Casey has a
shaft As feet and drift from the bot
tom has been advanced so feet Sew
eral big assays have been secured. In
the bottom of the shaft the vein is 1-2
feet wide and one assay showed gold
values of 1500$ and 95 ounces in silver
Several samples returned as high as
1905. Paris Brough is interested in the
property. The Valentine mine is in
Riverside county, California.
j. w. Walker, who is we'll known in
many of the western camps, is looking
over the Kingman field with view of

and has sufficient funds to handle any

closed an important deal with the Tom
Reed people.

lines with the La Fortuna, they are
working three shifts. The main work.
