Crown City Bought By
Tom Reed Company

KINGMAN, ARIZ., Aug. 20.-For
100000 cash the Tom Reed Gold Min
ing company has purchased 81 per
cent of the stock of the Crown City
Mining company, which owns the
Crown City NINE, west Of the Gold
Road. The Crown City was controlled
py Pasadena investors.
Mining men believe that in the
Crown City the Tom Reed company
has obtained one of the biggest
mines of the Oatman district. The
plan is to equip it with heavy
plant of machinery at once and to
conduct development operations on
pig scale. For several years the
Crown City has been under systematic
development and the showing is an
excellent one. 1t is splendidly To-
Gated, being close to the main wagon
road. Getting machinery on the
ground presents no problems.
AS a result of it's purchase of a
controlling interest in the Crown City,
the Tom Reed company, for the first
time in four years, passed it's monthly
dividend of from four to six per cent
on all issued stock.
During most of the last month only
10 stamps of the Tom Reed mill have
been in operation. Extensive better
ments are being made and the plant
will soon be in condition to handle
more ore than ever. The company
is getting the property in such shape
that an addition to the mill will soon
De necessary.
1t is possible that Mohave county
will soon have zinc mill. Outside
parties have made proposition to
the Kingman chamber of commerce,
which deferred action pending the
return from California Of John Boyle.
Mr.. Boyle controls several producing
zinc mines There are a number OF
zinc properties in Mohave that can
be operated at profit if their ores
can be treated at Kingman or some
nearby point. At present all the
zinc ore produced in this section is
shipped to Bartlesville, Oklahoma, OF
Needles, California.
By far the biggest zinc mine OF
the county is the Golconda, in Union

trated the ore-bearing ground, but II
is expected that this will be reached
in the course of the next 10 days.
The drift to the west shows five feet
of ore, across the full width Of the
drift, and how much wider it is can
not be determined till a crosscut Is
run. 1t is expected that the Gold
Ore will be shipping ore in a few
weeks.
A. w. Clapp, who holds bond and
lease on the Gem group, has been op-
Grating the Gem mill with some sue
cess. One bar Of bullion has already
been shipped and others are to follow.
Mr.. Clapp has been developing the
Golden Gem and also two groups of
claims owned by J. P. Ryan. of Ger
bat. Under his direction work is
being done on the Fredonia mine,
in Union basin. There a body of
gold ore running $100 a ton has just
been opened.
Bismuth is the latest metal to be
discovered in Mohave county, M. H.
Murphy and w. F. Dunlap have found
foot vein of ore iron-stained macacious
material that runs high IN bismuth.
Flat rock carrying bismuth has often
been found in that vicinity, but never
before has the vein been located. Dun
lap and Murphy are now in Kingman
to obtain a concentrating plant or dry
washer with which to work the clayey
matter surrounding the vein, which
contains rich bismuth placer.
In the same region Dunlap and
Murphy discovered float running high
in gadolinite. They have not found
the vein.
Rapid progress is being made toward
unwatering the Orc Plata mine. Seven
men are at work and it is expected
that they will have all the water out
of the way within two weeks. Oscar
A. Turner, who controls the Orc
Plata, hopes to have it on a produc-
ing basis soon.
The shaft on the Colorado claim OF
the Atlantic Pacific group, at Thumb
Butte, is down 40 feet and is in the
best ore ever opened on that property
Just how wide the ore is will not be
disclosed till crosscut is run from

That being the case, how can the
tax commission make a 55-cent levy
in the face of this? 1t looks to me
that the levy made by them if it goes
into effect. would invalidate the taxes
of the state, if any one protested
against paying them, and would be
uncollectable; and further the coun-
ties have already made their levy for
school purposes without taking into
consideration any money that would
come back to the state, so if the state
lew should stand the schools of the
state would get 100000 more than
they need.
For example, the Mesa schools put
in their requisition to the supervis-
eors of this county in June for all
money necessary to carry on their
school without help from the state
end no doubt every school in the
STATE has done the same thing and the
county levy has been made.
You will note the tax commissions S
levy of 55 cents would bring a reve-
nue. of $2,31O,OOO and the estimated
rt venue from the state Of $3.50, 900
would make $2,49O,OOO to be spent by
the state during 1915-16 and the legis-
lature estimated the revenue in the
appropriation bill at $18O,00O but at
the same time they knew the revenue
for 1914-15 was above $25O,O0O ano
the appropriation and levy bill called
for $1.765, ,723.25, making a total to be
difference between the legislature ano
the governor and tax commission OF
$544,276.77 more which they expect
to tax the people for.
How long are the people going to
stand for this extravaganza and Jug
Cling? Why don't some commercial
body take hold of this matter and not
let few politicians tax the people
beyond endurance. There should be

Jim Johnson didn't have any burial
insuranc, therefore ne refused, posi-
lively and absolutely, to remain dead.
But Jim's attempts to shuttle off this
mortal coil did place Deputy Sheriff
Frank Williams, Coroner Mckenzie,
and Undertaken Ramsey in rather
embarrassing position at $3.50 o'clock
this morning, when they went down
the tracks of the N. O., M. C. Rail-
road, to care for dead man, only to
find one over "doped" and very much
alive.
1t was shortly before $3.50 o'clock
when someone telephoned Sheriff Har-
bison that the body of man was
lying on the railroad tracks and want
ed to know what to do with it. 1t
happened to be in Deputy Sheriff Will
liams' beat, so Frank was asked to
| look after the matter. He telephoned
the coroner and the undertaken, and
then went speeding to the place where
the body was lying. Sure enough,
there stretched out on the ground un-
der cloudy sky was what appeared
to be the lifeless form of negro.
Williams made an inspection, and
saw signs of life. He rubbed the
mans wrists and chest for while,
when his eyes opened. The coroner
and the undertaken arrived at this
point There was enough moonlight
to make persons recognizable. Jim
heard the two men coming, squinted
his eyes in their direction. He be.

served as tonic. That one sight did
Jim more good than all of Williams

But Jim was too weak to run. He
