Mohave County miner., 1914-08-29

| buiiuon anu DeducildH1p nave just
received returns from a recent ship
ment of % tons of ore from their mine
IN Union Basin. The settlement
showed that the ore was worth 152. sos
in gold and silver, about 30$ more than
the sample taken by the boys at the
mine. This ore was taken from the
upper level of the property during the
past two months, which is a mighty
good showing for the amount of work
done. 1t is the intention of the owners
OF the property to open up the lower
level and go after the big ore body that
shows in the drifts. Besides the rich
shipping ore there are big bodies of
milling ore in all the openings. When.
Dundon and Beauchamp made their
shipment they included three tons of
ore from the Richardson mine, near
Cerbat. This ore gave result of sos in
gold and silver and 20 per cent lead.
The Arabian mines are said to be
showing up wonderful ore bodies as the
work of driving toward the 800 con-
tinues. This property is one of the
best showings in the county and all
miners that have worked there or seen
the mines are enthusiastic over the
future of the property. For the amount
of work done it gives greater promise
than any gold nine now in operation in
the state. The parent company opera
ting the mines is the Mines Company
of America, one of the largest operating
company in the United States. With
plenty of capital to back the project
we expect to see great things done
there tie coming year.
D. R. Muir. of the Gold Road Mines
company, and S. S. Jones, of the Tom
Reed Gold Mines company, were King
man visitors this week. These two
companies are among the largest pro-
ducers of gold in the United States and
do not have to pay much attention to
the market quotation on their product
AS soon as the general election is over
we hope that the people of Kingman
will come together and incorporate the
town. Every business man in Kingman
should be on friendly terms with every
other business man and the bitter feel
ing of rivalry in business matters sub
ordinated to the public good. There will
be business enough for all and to spare
if all the interests get together and
bring the business here. Mohave coun-
ty needs the aid of every business in
terest to properly place before investors
the big mining, cattle and agricultural
resources that we have, and the in
teresting of investors will bring much
new business to us. A get-together
movement in Kingman will bring our
people more and better business, and
build up the town to greater proper
tons than will scrap over the present
offering of business.
O. X. Parker and mechanician passed
through Kingman last Sunday on their
way home to Los Angeles. Mr.. Parker
went up to Flagstaff week ago last
Sunday for the purpose of going out to
the Snake Dance, but owing to the
postponement of the rite he was unable
to wait Coming back they ran their
car into Diamond Canyon and showed
the front wheels into the Colorado
river. Mr.. Parker obtained some
splendid views of the canyon and will
furnish some of them for use in the
MINER later.
The improvement in the walk at the
corner of Fourth and Front streets is a
great convenience to the people pass
ing that way. The old, unsighlyt stair
way and the cellarway underneath
have been torn out and nice cement
walk has been laid along the building,
giving added space for pedestrians. I!
Now if the high curb and scales were
taken out that part of the street would |
be greatly improved. Kingman streets
are in bad shape and it is to be hoped
that the business men will take to
themselves a little civic pride and |
