MANGANESE ORES IN
LINCOLN COUNTY

The discovery of high-grade man.
ganese ores in the G%allinas noun
tains, Lincoln county, may mark the
beginning of an important industry
for New Mexico, the production of
manganese.
The parties developing the proper
ties are quoted as believing the work
to be in the upper zones, mineral
ICED by fumes, and while high-grade
rock is found average value is not
believed to be sufficient to ship the
product without sorting, but depth
will probably bring in a more even
ose, also silver. 1t has been known
for some time that the district was
very strongly minera'ized with man
ganese in a form not usually found,
but generally indicating heavier ores
with depth and silver values in ad-
dition. Sometimes depth brings in
gold values, and it probably will in
that camp, because there is always
some god in the ores produced from
the different properties of the dis
trict.

county. is expeced to result in early
operations. 1t is understood that the
owners have sent out for miners
and will Dor be at work. This
property has produced some very
rich ore and DEVELOPMENT will pro-
baby make it a great producer.
The I. 4 o. Iron Co., operating the
Tones iron properties near Tecolote
Lincoln county, is shipping about fiji
ty tons Of ore dailv to the c. F. & G.

owners are being directed to the
erection CT an iron furnace at that
point.

40O0-Year Old Story Told
By Tlcining in Transit Talk

DIRECTOR TwINING, in his dis.
- cussion of the transit situation
at the City Club this afternoon
went back 1000 years to illustrate
the difference between the ugly anG
attractive presentations Of transit
facts.
Here is the Directors 4OOO-year.
old story:
There was a King in Egypt
named Snefru, who ruled in
Memphis. And it came to pass
that he dreamed and he sent for
the soothsayers and told them
the dream. The first interpreter
answered.: "Woe unto thee, o
King. All thy kinsmen shall
die before thee" Then was
Snefru wroth; caused this mes
senger of evil to be scourged
and sent for a second interpYe-
ter. He answered: 20 King,
live forever. Thy life shall be
longer than the life of thy kins-
q men and the men of thy house."
Then the King smiled and gave
presents unto his interpreter,
for, though the interpretations
were one. yet he had clothed his
message in a web of fair and
pleasant words.
The first of those interpreters
blurted out the truth bluntly, as
an engineer might, while the
other presented it with the
charming persuasiveness so
characteristic of an accom-
plished lawyer.

\ SERIOUS QUESTION

II want to ask seriously the members
of that very important organisation which
has done 80 much for the city of Phila-
delphia In the past how II comes that
they permit their name to be used for this
and other Misrepresentation of fact con-
tained In that circular. when the truth could

THE third element-the 'contract'-has
been for the past three years rather in
different issue, but is now a live, active,
vital issue. for the people are at last real
izing that this is the element which should
have received the first consideration.
II have been asked many times recently
what is the cause of the long negotiations
over this contract which have not produced
a satisfactory outcome
IF you read the history of the lease
negotiations. starting in 1913 and contnu-
ing intermittently to the present time, you
will find that instead OF the company and
the city drawing clos,r together as time
has passed they have actually diverged
md are now really further apart than they
were In 1914.
1.-THE history of these negotiations show
that the process of negotiations consisted of
a proposal made by the city to the company
and counter-proposal from the company to
the city. each proposal varying interms and
conditions as the situation has changed
from month to month
Thine does not = mi. the consideration
of the past negotiations SO l will restrict
myself to explain what interferes with the
consummation OF a satisfactory contract.
ITO begin with the difficulty underlying
this situation Is purely financial. and 1t has
its roots back in the consultations begin
ming In the SOS. about thirty years ago.
POLITICAL FINANcIERs
"In those days a group of fnanciers and
promoters developed in Philadelphia who
had great faith in the future possibilities
of the street railway business. They were
financiers of the political variety. and the
result of their financing Is reflected in every
financial statement Of the company that
has been issued since that time.
IF the conpany's report for 1916 be
analysed II win be found that the rental
represented approximately two cents out Of
every fare collected. and the operating ex-
penses. taxes. etc. approximately three
available for dividends virtually came from,
the exchange ticket revenue and misoe1-
laneous earnings. freight. advertialng. ITO.
These earnings asnounted 10 ahouf foor-
