BONANZA oATMAN ORE.
Gold Strike That Rivals Riches OF
GoIdfieId.

High grade ore that can Wen oe
classed as picture ore is being nlheu
in the United Eastern mine, accoroiAs
to a dispatch from Oatman' Arizona
Specimens have been shown IN Jul
man that compare favorably with the
product of the Florence mine IN Golo-
field. The gold occurs in bands IN tile
quartz and from appearances VIII run
thousands of dollars ton. Inc hrs'
intimation of the existence OF the
high grade streak came when the mn
started up January 4, when the VIE
of Superintendent Burgess tossed
specimen into the big gyratory crush
er. 1t is now being stored in the DIE
vault in the melting room Of the re-
finery. The management is reticen'
concerning the value and extent OF the
strike.

ADVANCE RELOCATED.
Company Loses Ground on Account OF
Failure to Do Assessment Work.

1t was learned this week that the
ground of the Advance Mining COM
pany, on Gentle Annie gulch, above
Mullan, was relocated on the first of
the year by M. D. Needham and Fred
Morrison, the company having failed
to perform the annual assessment
work during the year 1915. 1t is stat
ed that the company, which has head
quarters In Missoula, sent man over
to relocate the ground with the dawn
of the new year, but Needham and
Morrison "beat him to it." The Ad-
vance joins the Snowstorm on the
west. Development work to the ex-
tent of about 1000 feet has been done
on the property, but it is stated the
work was not done on the main ledge
In doing the location work, however.
it is reported that Needham and Nor
rison have opened the ledge showing
four feet of thoroughly mineralized
vein material accompanied by con-
siderable lead.

MINING STOCKS.
Fioures Which Show Why They Are
Growing in Popularity.

Growing in Popularity.
All conditions are favorable for
continuance of the growing popular
ity of the shares of the metal produc-
ing companies. Each year we see
larger number of prospects developed
into dividend paying mines with an
over increasing number OF satlsned
holders of mining securities. says the
Denver Mining Record.
In 1914, 80 mining companies paid
$50 1929 in dividends. In 1918, 1O9
companies paid $7S,369,5S5 in dlVl-
dends, and in 1915, 1877 companies paid
IS170,388,37S in dividends. The mines
n 1915 set a new record for dividend
disbursements rejecting the tremenu-
ous demands for the metals in war
nd industry.
In 1916 the dividends paid by the
metallurgical and holding companies
otaled $136,O6S,6 1854. In 1915 the o's-
bursements of these companies
amounted to $S3,S14,S63 and in 1914
500, 434,677
The new year opens auspiciousiS
for still greater prosperity for the
mining industry. Throughout the
Rocky mountain country the work o.
developing prospects into mines IS De-
inc rushed with feverish activity. Or
every hand there. are evidences o.
great prosperity from the mines an'
is safe to say that never before nave
mining stocks been as popular VIII

Three we'll defined veins cross the

STATE OF KANSAS.

1t is peculiarly fitting that Kansas, the
graphical and agricultural center of the
nancial and prayerful support to the hui
manitarian work of the American Red
Cross. We are engaged in a war for ltb7l
erty, for the preservation of every ideal so,
long dear to the hearts of men. We have
an exceptionally large and important pan
to take In that war But beyond this fact.
beyond the mere observance of duty de-
volving upon the firing line. the
fine opportunity is presented us of giving
our money and our moral encouragement
to the men who are doing the fighting
while we at home strain every resource TO
feed the troops and care for them In the
hospitals. i quite certain that We shall
enter upon these solemn tasks In the spirit
of patriotism characteristic Of the great
sured that the intelligent people Of this
state will assume without reluctance the
not only will they realize the value and
Importance of the Red Cross work on the
battlefield, but that they will. also, well
come the chance to give Fundamentally and
literally of their possessions, that this
work may go forward theoretically and
promptly. Not all men can go to the war
feed the armies. But all men Whatever
their daily job, may be, can and most
certainly should, do something to main
tain and help those who do the fighting
, In pursuance of the foregoing laudable
designs, believing implicitly in the pa
triotism of the people of Kansas, and in
accordance with the proclamation Of the
President, l avail myself of the authority
conferred upon me to set aside the week
