Tom Reed Will Greatly Increase
Yield.

There is nothing on earth which more
positively emphasizes the future output
of mine than the question of increas-
ed power, and when this is deemed nee
essary it always follows that the miner
al yield is much greater.
Now at the depot, ready for ship
ment to the Tom Reed mine, is large
electrical hoist and additional compress
or capacity, and that is conclusive that
the 100, 000$ per month will be greatly
increased at an early date.
There is five tons of zinc dust with
this consignment.
This additional machinery being nee
essary is notice to the world that the
Tom Reed mine is now getting in shape
to do greater things than ever before,
and yet 6 per cent per month dividends
on the par value of the stock was GER
tainly going some.
Development only is necessary to dis
close large and rich ore bodies in the
mines Of the River Range. The Tom
Reed shows this is a fact now and
other mines will corroborate il in the
future.

Origin of Onyx.

When waters charged with carbonate
of calcium derived from limestone are
allowed to evaporate they deposit their
load in the form of sinter, or tufa.
This process can be observed at many
thermal and ''petrifying" springs, and
also in the formation of stalactites and
stalagmites in limestone caverns. In
this way large masses of compact car
Donate are formed, some of them of
great beauty. The so-called "onyx
Marbles" of which the Mexican
"onyx" is a familiar example, are
formed in this way. Some rock of this
class is stalagmitic, in caverns, and
some Of 1T is formed by springs. lis
variations in color and texture, to which
its ornamental character is largely due,
are commonly produced by impurities
or inclusions, such as oxide of iron, or
even mud and clay.

Will Arizona Be Dry?

When Rinehart and his bunch of fell
lows framed the amendment to the con-
stitution, which he said was so tight
that flea could not get through it, he
failed to get in touch with one of the
fundamentals in the way of making the
measure self executing. The two sec
tlons of the amendment are diametri-
cally opposed, one making the amend
ment effective on the first day of Janu-
ary, 1915, and the other requiring action
by the legislature to give it life.
The English and American encyclopedia
of law, volume 6, page 915, State of
Missouri VS.. State of Texas, 10 Fed.
497, the Supreme Court of the United
States held that the 18th amendment
to the constitution of the United States
was not self-executing, because of the
fact that it required the congress to
take the necessary steps to bring it into
life, although one section or clause of
amendment indicated that it would be-
come effective upon the proclamation
of the President of the United States
that it lad been duly ratified by the
states. The fact that legislative action
was required to make the amendment
effective was held by the court to take
from it its self executive quality.
The cyclopedies are full of similar
decisions covering state and national
amendments to constitutions, the courts
holding rigidly to the view that where
there is a conflict in statute, and an
amendment to the constitution is
statute or law, it cannot be considered
self-executing where legislative action
is required to either put life in it or to
provide means to make it effective.
Now, the courts also hold that where
a constitutional enactment places upon
a legislature duty in the matter of
the passing of necessary laws to make
effective an amendment to the consti-
tuition, if it fails or neglect5 to take
action during the session Of that body
there is no power in the scope of the
law to compel them to do SO, and the
law would fail of effectiveness.
AS at present constituted the legisla-
ture of Arizona is said to favor the
vets and it is more than probable that
no legislative action will be taken dur
ing the session beginning in January,
which would nullify the amendment.

George Burns came in from the Neglect
ed group of mines, north of the Tom
Reed, where he has been employed in
driving a crosscut from the 50 foot level
of one of the claims. 1t is said that some
time ago a rich find of ore was made on
the surface of this property and that the
crosscut was run to cut it at the lower
level The work is not yet complete, but
some good ore has been found. While
the Tom Reed does not need any new ore
bodies the company is making it possible
to maintain their reserves for years to
come. The Neglected group is one of
the heaviest watered propositions in the
district, and it also has great bodies of
medium grade ore. With proper develop
ment the mines should came into the pro-
ducing class at any time.

Asa LeBarron came in from his min
ing property, near Anteras, this week,
bringing with him samples of the ore
that gave assay values of 1913 ounces
silver and some gold. The vein shows
good width and the work done has dem
onstrated it to be good property. The
mine is situated in place where a
wagon can be driven onto it, and where
mining costs will be light. At the pres
ent price of silver, although at the low
est ebb, the ore would pay well for
mining, and it is expected THAT Mr.. LIE
Barron will begin taking ore from the
property for shipment to the smelter.
