NEW STATE TAPS R|CH SHOOT OF
 MOTHER LODE
MINERS FROM CAMP RE- PORT ONE OF MOST I'M PORTANT GOLD STRIKES IN MANY YEARS.
(From ThurSdav's Daily.)


 Exploration that has been under headway for the past three months to determine the mother lode of the New State group, when a strike oc- cured in parallel vein, accomplish ed its purpose Tuesday night. when body of ore valued at over S2OO in gold to the ton was exposed in an lS- inch vein.
 The discovery was made from the old tunnel level in sinking a winze that entered the zone under the shaft at a depth of over 25O feet, and ac- cording to reports the strike made es- tablishes a permanent condition or that the main Assure of the belt has been tapped. The original discovery occurred in a parallel vein in cross cut run, when further exploration was suspended that an upraise might be made to afford better air through the old shaft sunk many years ago. This work required time and slow progress was made with one shift under a con- tract. Working conditions being agreeable two shifts recently were put to work, and the accomplishing of the objective solves one of the biggest gold properties in this field, and which miners from the camp yesterday stat cd was a remarkable showing.
 w. s. Wilhelm, manager of the Maricopa Queen Oil Co.,, which owns the New State and other mines of that belt, is in Long Beach, Cal. but has been requested to come at once. It was through his efforts that the mine was purchased last year, and development was started after the property had laid idle for many years. It was outlined that if the mother lode should be opened and ore conditions would warrant large operating machinery would be install ed, and this move it is said will be carried out at once. Samples of the strike show a sulphide ore, with galena content, a peculiar mineral combination, but characteristic of other properties in that field. The Elk and Perry on the Assure of the New State also are active, and it is stated that after the arrival of Mir. Wilhelm all three camps are to have three shifts placed at work.

said Kimball. Tt is the duty of the businessmen to stand between the corporations and the laboring men and bring the two together. Labor connot do without capital and capital cannot do without labor.
 If we want to build up the indus tries of this State we must be fair to all the interests and industries and not try to tear them down"
 Kimball told of how labor had been organized until it was a powerful factor, how the farmers were organ izing and declared the business men of the State should also organize and cooperate in order to bring the best results.
 Prof. C. F. Willis, Of the Univer- sity of Arizona, and Malcolm Fraser also made brief talks.

OLD MINE REVIVED;
 MAKES GOOD SHOWING
(From Fridays Daiiv.)

The reviving of the old Silver Belt mines, near Humboldt, by a Califor- nia syndicate of operators, is occas- iOning favorable comment for the progress made in new shaft sinking, and ore bodies that are being devel- oped.
 The firm has formed the Silver Belt Consolidated Company. with George L. Prentiss as president. On the ground is A. C. Rowlan, general man. ager. The old workings have been abandoned and new location select ed for sinking a 5O0-foot shaft, that has reached depth of @ feet in two weeks of operating. At this point, within few hundred feet or the end lines of the Arizona mines, the Assure of the latter is being entered, and a large body of orc assaying 80 ounces in silver, g in gold and 10 per cent in lead has been opened. The manage ment freely stated that results are satisfactory, and the plan of develop ment outlined will be carried out. After the arrival of Mir. Prentiss from California, the equipping of the prop erty with an electrically propelled plant is to be taken up for immediate consideration. The remarkable show ing made by the Arizona is believed to be the induccmcnt for reviving the Silver Belt.

i EARLY DAY SCENE
 MAY BE REPEATED
(From Wednesdays Daily. J

C. E. Burton, largely interested in cattle and sheep in the Ash Fork country, stated yesterday that mow- ing gramma grass on the open range is under consideration among many stockmen, due to the great abundance of this feed. Burton says the grazing situation is remarkable, and such an abundant growth of gramma had not been known since the eos, according to reports made by old-time residents of that section. The country for many miles is carpctcd with a growth that reaches to a heighth Of over IS inches, hence the move to be made soon to get the crop under roof for Winter feeding. Sheep, accordingly, will not move out of the country for the desert until late this year.
