Assemblyman X. HuSrER McQuIs.
TioN Of the First Kings district is a
member OF the legislative committee
which has been inquiring into the
conduct OF the Public Service Com.

mittee was In session he lived In II.
Nevertheless the State has heen

We have no doubt that the hotel

The committee. literally financed by

that the vouchers should show a fair
division Of the expenditures among

well he that the whole cost was cut

that none should have an apparent

STATE LEADS IN COPPER
BIG INCREASE IN ARIZONA ORE
PRODUCTION IN 1915.
Report of Geological Survey Shows a
Record Production of Silver and
Advances in Lead and Zinc.

Bisbee, Ariz.-The output of gold,
silver, copper, lead and zinc at mines
in Arizona in 1915 was valued at
$88 ,531 ,000, according to the United
States Geological Survey, an increase
of $59856,029. There was very little
change in the output of gold but there
were notable increases in the other
metals, especially in lead and zinc.
Increased prices made a difference OF
nearly $36,00O.000 in copper, 100000
in lead, and over $2,000,000 In zinc.
These figures are the estimates of V.
G. Heikes, statistician of the survey.
The output of gold in Arizona mines
increased about one per cent from
that of 1914, which was $4,179,155.
The Commonwealth mine, at Pearce,
was a large producer, though the
main value of the bullion was in sill

A record production of silver was
made from Arizona mines in 1915, the
output increasing from 4,377,994 o. in
1914 to about 5,458,000 OF. in 1915, or
over "a per cent The silver produc-
tion from zinc ores and lead zinc cres
is not great, but siliceous ores in Co.
chise county supply material per-
centage. The Commonwealth mine, at
Pearce, was treating approximately
10000 tons of ore a month, making
bullion containing principally silver.
At the Tombstone property, operated
by the Bunker Hill Mines Company,
ore and tailings were being treated by
cyanidation toward the end of the
year.
Arizona is the leading copper pro-
ducing state of the country, and had
an output of nearly 450,000,000 pounds
in 1915, an increase in quantity of
nearly 57,OOO,0O0 pounds and in value
of nearly $260O0,000.
The mine output of lead in Arizona
increased from 15,003,O68 pounds in
1914 to about 22,272,OOO pounds in
1915, an increase of over 48 per cent.
The value increased from $585,120 to
! 81, 1,033,000. The greater part of this
output comes from the Copper Queen
and Shattuck properties, in the War
ren district, in Cochise county.
The mine production of zinc, esti-
mated as recoverable spelter, in
creased from 9,792,337 pounds in 1914
to about 1925 900 pounds in 1915.
The unusual average price of zinc for
1915 gives value Of about $2,524,-
600 to this product 1t came almost
entirely from the Golconda and the
Tennessee mines in Mohave county. A
few other zinc shipments were made
from Pearce and Hereford, in Cochise
county; Casa Grande, in Pinal coun-
ty; Red Rock, in Pima county, and
Crown King, in Yavapjai county. The
Texas-Arizona property in the Cochise
district, and the Duquesne property,
in Santa Cruz county, also made a
few shipments of zinc ore.
For the first eleven months of 1915
the metal mines of Arizona contrib
uted nearly $11,0OO,OOO in dividends.
