Bisbee daily review., 1914-06-09

Dennis Walsh. who returned Sun day morning from a two weeks trip through the mining districts Of the state, says Arizona was never more attractive nor never had brighter out look in mining.
 Not only are the large producers making steady expansion in their proven ore areas and acquiring new and promising holdings for develop ment, but they are also putting mil lions in the aggregate into surface im- provements of mining and ore reduc ton plants
 At Jerome Mr. Walsh found the largest surface activity in improve ments at present prevalent in the state. His opinion is that it will be another year before the United Verde is in the full enjoyment Of It's bet termentsA in plant and transportation facilities, although they will probably blow in the new shelter this fall. The transportation line to the smelter from the mines. however. will not be fin ished in its entirety until sometime later. This line enters the mines through tunnel connection with the lower levels, and will provide an ideal delivery system subject to operation with high efficiency The new smelt- ing plant is conceded to be the last word in reduction plant construction and in high efficiency will vie with the new plant of the C. & A. at Doug las. although capacity is much less at Jerome Much skilled labor is now employed on construction at Jerome. while the mine is working its usual full complement of men. In conse- quence there is much more than the usual prosperity in the camp. which has been very active the last year
 At Inspiration. Mir Walsh found the Inspiration opening it's m ain drifts and rapidly getting in readiness for production The work at this prop erty in the mining division. be states, appeals to the miner in very ruong manner. representing thoroughness, permanency and the very best that the science of mining has developed for the most advantageous working of the ground. with the maximum of at- tenuon at the same time given to pro- lection of the workings and the well fare of employees.
 Inspiration concentrator and ilota- ton plant construction is going along as rapidly as it can be carried with the attendance of thoroughly lirst- class workmanship At the smelter site there is much structural steel on the ground. together with consider able amount of the smelter equip ment Concrete foundations are going in and the smclter site is the scene of much endeavor on the part of a large and well organized construction force. The shelter is being erected by the International the Cole-Ryan smelling organization, the members or which are among the large stock holders of the Inspiration. lt is eN- uected that ultimately the Miami con- centrators will be handled by this smelter. which will divert these from Greene Cananea shelter in which tho same interests hold the controlling in- terest.
 At Globe. Walsh met Harry Bark doll. mine superintendent with old Dominicn. and enjoyed a comprehen- sive look though the properties Of that company which he says are in fine shape. Mir Barkdoll who went to old Doudnion from here a year ago. after a long term with Bisbee mines. desired to be remembered 10 his old friends. who always find well come from him in Globe and are made to feel at home old Dominion has
