AMONG THE MINES
RADIUM FROM eILPIN MINES

A shipment of 112 tons of radium
ore, containing approximately $4,000
worth of rare mineral, was received
yesterday at the Colorado School of
Mines. 1t is the largest shipment
ever made in Colorado.
The ore came from the Colorado
Gilpin Gold and Radium Mining com
pany in Gilpin county and is destined
for the United States bureau of
mines in Denver, after it has been
concentrated at the plant of the Col
den school.
At TIE Denver bureaus laborator-
les the radium and the uranium OK
ide will be extracted by government
experts for delivery under a contract
between the United States and hos
pitfalls in New York and Baltimore,
Md.
The radium will be used for free
cancer treatments there. The uran-
ium oxide by-product will be employ
ed for experimental work by the de
partment OF the interior at wash
ington.
The shipment yesterday is estimat-
ed to contain 715 milligrams OF rad
ium. At the market price of the met
al, which is at present 100000 a
gram, this radium content alone
would be worth $50, 800.
When it is finally extracted it
will form part of the supply created
by the government for philanthropic
purpose and for which the radium bu-
reau was established in Denver. This
supply. by the ti!re the government
completes its contract with the east
ern hospitals next summer, will be
approximately seven grams, accord
ing to expert estimates, valued at
$S4O 00O.-Denver News.

UNITED WE STAND,
DIVIDED WE FALL

The sentiment embodied in this
caption, has made and banished
kings. 1t has overthrown empires,
and brought comfort and happiness
to the oppressed. With this motto
ever before us, We can rise from our
own ashes, and once more place our
beloved county upon the pedestal,
where she once sat, as the banner
gold producing county of the state.
This is daily beirg eXemplified by
the concessions being given the min
er by the American Smelling & Re-
filming Co. When copper started to
make its phenom;nal rise the A.
S. & r. company, as had always seen
it's habit, decided to reap the bene-
fit of this rise, and allow as little
as possible to go to the miner. Ac-
cordingly they inscribed clause in
their open schedule and also in all
contracts, saying that if copper went
above IA cents per pound, that they
would arbitrarily deduct 25%o of all
over that basis from their payments.
But they had not counted on the Gil
pin county Metal and Mines associa-
tion, which is ever on the alert to
prevent any such unjust imposition.
The rightful kick that went up from
the miners of Gilpin county, soon
decided them that they could not
get away with this. brazon effrontery,
with the result that they have strick-
en- this clause from all their sche-
dukes. This means that every miner
in northern Colorado will get 33 1-3 %
more for their copper. They have
sent out notices 10 every mine under
contract, and cal ed up President
Sayre of the Metal and Mines asso-
citation by phone, requesting him to
notify all miners that this change
would go into effect on and after
March 16.
How this effects every miner is
exemplified by the Barnes mine. a
typical small lease of the county.
with only 3 or 4 men at work had
this charge gore into effect two
months ago, this leasing pool would
have made an added profit of $465.
Again we say United We Stand,
Divided We Fall"

LAKE MINE

The Moser lease ON tie Lake mine
was sold Tuesday to R. l.. Moore of
Denver. This lease in the last IS
months, has produced s250,O00 worth
of ore. Mr.. Moser's health having
failed. he was advised to seek a
lower altitude by his physician, and
this was the cause of his disposing
of his lease. Several parties were
desirous of obtaining the lease, and
No. /, whose option expired on that
day at o'clock p. M, and the mon
ey was not Forthcoming, the option
was declared void, and five minutes
thereafter Mr.. Moore bad purchased
the lease and Paid the money.
"Straws show which way the wind Is
b.owing,' and this transaction shows
that capital is in waiting and anxious
to invest in Gilpin county fissures,
whose ore deposits get larger and
richer as depth is gained. This lease
being 1900 feet beneath the surface.

G;tfiN IN THE LEAD

Tie Gilpin chapter CT the Mines
and Metals association now has 252
active members. This is undoubted-
ly the largest membership Of any
minirg county in the state, and the
county is tie smallest.
This large membership and its ac-
companying interest is due to sever
I al reasons. First, that our mines
are known to be large and rich to
unknown depths, our deepest work
ings (2,500 feeD, show larger veins
OF ore than at the surface with the
prospect good for a much greater
depth. Secondly, that molybdenum
and tungsten are being found in COM
mercal value in many parts of the
county and when spring opens and
the snow receGes from the range,
many prospectors will flock to these
barren peaks to prospect for these
valuable ores that were discovered in
many places too late in the fail to
be successfully worked.
The prospect for Gilpin county
never looked brighter for years than
at the present, but Gilpin, Clear
Creek and Park counties must watch
well the proceedings in congress, as
there is another bill introduced to
create another national park from
this portion OF the public domain.

FRANCIS LOOKS VERY GOOD

F. w. Beertagnolli burned a little
gasoline this week, taking the OBJ
server man over to the Francis mine
in his 5-passenger auto. Mr.. Bertag-
nolli is naturally optimistic, but was
SO enthusiastic over the showing in
the Francis that many doubted the
truthfulness of his claims, so it was
up to the Observer to verify his re-
ports. The machinery at tie mine
was disconnected (that is, the horse
was not connected to the whim) so
the ladder way was used as a meth
cd of descent and ascent. The shaft
is now 200 feet deep and at this
point levels are run east and west,
the east level just being started. On
the west side the showing is eX-
ceptionally good and Mr.. Bertagnol-
Ii was not eXaggerating when he SAID
the Francis was big thing. On the
vein three feet in width. On the
hanging wall there is a solid streak
OF zinc ore eight inches in width
and on the foot wall is a wide streak
of lead. This ore body has not been
assayed the past week or two. but
before the streak widened to It's
present width, the ore showed val
ues of from $500 to $4,000 a ton in
gold, silver and lead, exclusive of
the zinc content. The ore is very
heavy and makes tonnage rapidly. On
the east side of the shaft, the drift
is coming into fire streak of gray
copper similar to the ore in the
War Dance, across the gulch.
There is big quantity of smelt-
ing and concentrating ore on the
plats awaiting shipment. A whim is
now in use, but the pool operating
the Francis is considering the in
stallation of an electric hoist. The
tram line runs within a few hundred
feet of the mine and it is also in
tended to extend the track to the
Francis. The pror osition is just a
prospect but gives indication of de-
veloping into big producer.

DEMAND FOR PROTECTION

Spokesman for British Business In

tial Tariff.

LONDON, March s.-Premier Asouith
received last night a deputation rep
resenting the chamber of commerce of
the United Kingdom and the empire,
whose object was to urge the desir-
ability of government action for the
defense Of trade and employment after
the war.
Sir Algernon Firth. the chief .spokes-
man. presented the resolution adopted
at the guild hall January 81. Referring
to the suggested preferential treat
ment Of the dominions and allied coun-
tries, Sir Algernon said the adoption
Of tariff was necessarily implied.
Sir Algernon also urged the appoint
ment of minister of commerce.
In reply, the prime minister said
that a conference at Paris probably
would be held in the course of a fort
night. at which all the allied nations
would be represented. The questions
of the economic and commercial policy
to be pursued after the war would be
fully discussed, and in view Of that 1t
would be ineXpedient for him to make
any pronouncement as to the policy
the government would recommend.

DR.. Bells Address.

the first message ever sent by the

many minds have contributed to the
development of the telephone of to-
day; an army of workers organized
under Mr.. Vail and Mr. Carly and the
researches of the telephone and tele-
graph company have been required in
order to bring these marvellous results.

Bell telephone. Mr. Watson and my

Distinctly a Telephone Occasion.

The affair was distinctly telephone
occasion, SO arranged by the National
Geographic Society in honor of DIR.
Bell, one of it's board of managers, be-
cause the telephone has done more to
cancel geographic borders than prob
ably any other agency. All the speak
ers devoted themselves to the subject
of the telephone. Secretary Lane even
asking the engineers present if it
would not be possible some day to talk
TO Mars by wireless telephony, and the
romance of that idea did not seem SO
utterly impossible to many of those
present, in view of the other things
that were done. A mother ard father,
visitors in Washington from San Fran
cisco-Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Harris
talked to their children in that city
from the banquet room, saying good
night" to them and receiving the low
ing remarks of the youngsters as
plainly as if the children had been in
the banquet room-a tender incident in
which every guest at the dinner par
ticipated. as every one was supplied
with an individual telephone receiver,
and it was an incident which will place
little Lawrence Harris, jr., four and a
half years old, record as the first
child to use the transcontinental tele-
phone.
