Seven Trouehs Coalition
Working Rich Ore Body

A Lovelock, New, dispatch says:---
F. H. Bird of the Seven Troughs Coali-
ton mine came in Wednesday bringing
with him a brick valued at 7,5OO$.
When asked as to progress at the mine,
he said:
eve are working two shifts in the
Wine and are making an average of
three feet of depth daily. We now
have two-foot vein of zoos in the
bottom of the Wine. In the north
drift on the 1900 level we have a vein
of ore running 1,500$, while in the
south drift there is eight feet of ore
going 35O$,
''The seat of operations has been
changed to the LOO level from the
1000 making preparation for the in
stallation of the big six-foot ventilating
fan.

Ready to Start Placer Operations.

Heavy rains in the Stanton section
during the past month have disturbed
the plans of the Rich Hill Placer Com
pany, making the gravel impracticable
to work by the dry process. During
the past week, however, weather con-
ditions have again assumed the normal,
and it is the intention to begin active
exploration Immediately. Harry Shu-
mate leaves for camp today, and will
be accompanied by Charles Anderson,
the latter to be in charge of making the
exhaustive tests of the 7,OOO-acre tract.
The Stebbins concentration is on the
ground with other equipment, and
several houses are to be erected. With
a continuation of favorable weather it
it is anticipated that the big project
will be in full swing inside of the next
twenty days.---Prescott Journal Miner.

The Chamber of Mines and Oils of
Los Angeles, in line with the action of
many other like bodies, has by resolu-
ton petitioned the congress of the
United States to pass the law now be-
fore that body suspending the require
ment for annual labor upon mining
claims for the year 1914. The resolu-
ton has also been passed by the Amer
lean Mining Congress. The measure
is now before the senate and house and
it is probable that it will pass before
many weeks. 1t is well known that
large corporations have either done
their work or have all their mining
holdings under patent. The suspension
of the annual labor would help the poor
mine owner far more than the wealthy
fellow holding mining properties, and
it is to be hoped that it will pass in
time to be of advantage to those hold
ing claims under possessory title.

Among the measures that will come
before the people of the whole state, at
the November election, is the PROPOSE
ton to divide the county of ella and
Penal, making the county of Miami of
the segregated portion. We believe
the making of a new county to be the
business of the people of the counties
affected and not of the people of the
counties affected and not of the people
of the whole State, and therefore, we
would advise the people to vote against
the adoption of the measure. And one
reason that we would advise is that the
formation of the new county is not one
of convenience to the people, but to
create new offices, the proposed
county seat of Miami county being but
four miles from the county seat of
ella county. If Miami county could be
created and the county seat situated
near Hayden, or some other place on
Mineral Creek, there might be some
reason for it, but none can be brought
for two county seats within a radia of
four miles.

The board of supervisors of this
county have set aside the sum of zoos
for the purpose of aiding the people of
the north part of the county in the
build ne of road into the Grand Can
yon, or rather into the heavily forested
section of the Buckskin plateau.
Walter Brown will have charge of the
work on behalf of the county. The
road is to be a continuation of the pro-
posed road from the Yellowstone Park
to the Grand Canyon, which is said to
have the greatest scenic features of
any like stretch of road in the world.
This road will also open to commerce
the greatest pine forest in the state of
Arizona. In connection with this road
Utah congressman have bill before
congress that has for its object the
building of railroad into the forest
The road is estimated to cost two mil
lions of dollars, but will make return
of three millions of dollars to the
government on the Investment. 1t will
make possible the marketing Of billions
of feet of matured pine timber, and at
the same time will open up large areas
of coal and iron lands. Along its route
will be built up immense agricultural
and cattle interests, which will soon
make possible the formation of a new
county for Arizona. Should the road
be built across the canyon it would
enable the mine owners of this section
to market their ores at Salt Lake. Be-
sides coal, iron, timber and oil, the
road would open the copper mines of
the lime and sandstone belt to the Salt
Lake or Clarkdale smelters.
John Barry, native son of Mohave
county, came in from Los Angeles a
few days ago in his car and has gone to
Chloride, where he will look after his
important mining interests. Mr.. Barry
and wife have been residing in Los
Angeles the past year and will probably
again tako up their residence at Chic.
