Another Lost Mine Discovered
(Florence Blade -Tribune)


After forty-tw years the fabu-
lousy rich Ward mine has been
relocated. The mine was lost in
the year 1875 and was found and re-
located on Monday of this week by
Juan Ward, a son of Milton Ward,
the original locator, now deceased,
Abe Encinas and Lorenzo Cruz.
Milton Ward came to Arizona in
1857 with the Butter6eld Company
which was then operating the over
land stage line from St. Louis to
San Francisco. In 1861 this line
ceased operations on account of the
war, and Milton Ward drifted into
other lines. In the early seventies
he discovered a rich copper and sill
yer ore body aYd exhibited speci-
mems that ran nearly sixty per cent
copper and extremely rich in sill
yer.
At about this time there came to
Florence one John w. Anderson,
who was well supplied with real
coin. Anderson financed a COM
pany composed of himself, William
Tutt1e. Milton Ward and others,
and a smelter was erected Oh the
river in Round Valley, near the old
White house, just west of the pres
ent headgate. After the smelter
had been erected the promoters of
the enterprise made the discovery
that they could not snelt the ore
because they did not have proper
Auxing minerals and the enterprise

From the report of State
Superintendent of Public In
stuction Case it is learned
that during the past year ap-
proximately $4,000 has
been donated from various
sources for the use of the
University. This includes
100000, the gift of the min
ing companies of the state to-
ward a new mining and engl-
neering building. During the
last session of the legislature
$4,000 was approprjatedfor
a new mining building, con-
tingent upon the University
raising a like sum from the
outside. The mining compa-
nies of the state very gener-
ously responded, and $780,
900 was placed at the dis
posal Of the institution. The
architect has been selected,
and ground will soon be bro
ken for the new building.
Among the gifts to the uni
versity last year was one of
100000, given anonymously,
to build an observatory, and
to equip it With one of the
largest telescopes in the coun-
try. There were also many
smaller gifts, both in money
and equipment.

There is a prevalent belief
that a bi-metallic monetary
system will be established
after the present war is over.
The European nations will re-
quire vast sums for repairing
the rayages of war upon a
scale unprecedented in his
tory, and something more
tangible than promises to pay
will be required to meet the
emergency. The warring ma
tons are assuming staggering
debts, which will extend for
decades after peace is de-
clared. The enormous debts
of these countries and the
urgent need for a medium of
circulation, many think will
force them to adopt some form
of hi-metalism once peace is
established. Accepting gold
as the standard of valuation
the rate of silver (noW higher
than for many years) will in
the end be standardized at a
fixed ratio herewith, and re-
established as a money metal.
At least this is the belief of
some who have given the
subject careful attention, the
fixed ratio oftenest mentioned
by writers upon the subject
being 20 to 1.

was abandoned: Milton had been
discreet and }2ad nos revealed the
hiding place Of his fabu1ous1y rich
mine and immediately the mine
was lost. and has been lost ever
since until discovered Monday of
this week, although hundreds of
prospectors have looked ip vain for
Wards old mine.
Abe Encinas- and Juan Ward
were prospecting in the Red Hills
and while talking with Lorenzo
Cruz the latter casually remarked
that he knew where there was an
old abandoned working and led his
companions to the spot, and from
the location and description they
had of the old Ward property they
were certain it was the same. Six
locations were made at once. Sam
pies of ore brought in by the'pros-
pectors are extremely rich in cop
per and silver and caused quite a
stampede here in Florence, and
every day has seen new parties
headed for the new discovery, and
claims are being staked everywhere
in that vicinity.

The farmers have just as
much to do in building up
and improving their town as
do the citizens of the town.
It is to their interests to have
up-to-date merchants, ma
chinists and mechanics. How
can they expect these con-
veniences if they send to all
the large cities for merChan-
disc that should be bought of
the home dealer. The few
cents that can be saved by
buying goods away from
home is injuring your COM
munity to the extent Of many
dollars by retarding progress
and the increased valuation
of property, including your
own. Stand together and to-
gether all will prosper. Divide
and prosperity will flee. =
