Sunday the Trench Mine, in.
the Harshaw district, out in the
Patagonia mountains, was visit
ed by Mr.. C. w. Clark, president
of the company operating the
property, whose home is in Los
Angeles, and Mr.. J. D. Began,
from San Francisco, who is in
Iterested in the enterprise. The
gentlemen motored into the
camp from Tucson, and were
the guests of Manager John
Hoy. After visiting the camp
they returned the same way
they came, via the En-
lpire rancho. The heavy ma
|chinery ordered has been re-
Iceived at the Trench and will be
installed as quickly as possible.
When it is all ready for work
there will be some deep mining
lat the Trench.
Yesterday Nogales was visit
ed by Mr.. w. J. Mitchell, from
Mowry, who reported that the
Consolidated Arizona Copper
Company will begin work on the
Ell Paso group Of mines on the
fifth of January. Mr.. Mitchell
has succeeded the late Fred J.
Miller as superintendent, and
will have charge of the work.
Recently he has sampled the
shaft, and from top to bottom
he got no assay that ran no less
than 2 1-2 20 copper. Mr.. Nit
chell reported also that the
property he took
over recently, out in the Canelo
Hills, beyond the San Rafael
Valley, is turning out finely. The
shaft is down eighteen feet, in
good ore all the way. Recent |
assays show 599s manganese

THE BACA FLOAT GRANT
Efforts Toward Compromise
Between the Successful
Claimants and the
Settlers.


try was visited by Mr.. G. G.
Davis, the chief of the success
full claimants on the south half
of the grant, who made a num-
ber of calls among the settlers.
It is reported that the gentle
man made an offer that the
grant claimants will lease their
lands to the settlers at nOmial
rental for one year with the
privilege of buying at the end
Of that time; the lease to carry
a clause or provision that the
settlers will abandon further
legal proceedings. From a con-
versation had by "The Oasis"
with one of the settlers the Of
fer is not considered reasonable.
A meeting is called at Calabasas
next Sunday, at which the offer
made by Mr.. Davis will be con-
sidered, and provision proposed
for action thereon.
The successful claimants on
the north side of the grant 81.
D. Bouldin ct al.,) have arranged
a settlement with some of the
settlers as stated in these
columns a week or more ago.
Those who they settled with
were Thos. D. Casanega, Karns
Brothers, Raymond Burrel and
Manuel King. Whether they
will make any arrangement with
any of the rest is unknown.
It is reported that the Boul-
din claimants will work the
mines in the Salero country that
are within the lines of the grant.
and to that end will erect a con-
-centrator. The properties
meant are what are known as
the Alto group of mines, and
they are well developed by
several tunnels, with several
shafts, exposing large bodies of
ore, low grade, but susceptible
of profitable concentration. If
that is done erection of a con-
centration plant will be neces-
sary, and such an investment in
the near future is among the
possibilities.
The north line of the grant
cuts through the Alto prop
critics, leaving on the outside
several good claims that have
been developed by shafts, show
ing good ore bodies of the same
grade as that opened by the
tunnels. Should the grant
owners. erect a concentrator
plant it would crush custom
ores no doubt; in which event
the owners of the outside mines
will work and have their ores
concentrated at the mill. Those
properties are owned by the
same people who own the Mowry
mines. Erection of such a plant
and operation of the mines will
put new life into the Salero
country.
- In the vicinity there are other
good properties with more or
less development and good ore
bodies, to which the grant own
ers will turn attention no doubt.
They are the Trenton, the Sa-
lero and the Bland mines. All
these have well developed ore

CAMP POETRY

One of the amusements at the mill
tary camps seems to be to write
poetry. During rainy weather time
hangs heavy on the hands of the
soldier boys and reading and writing
poetry is better than nothing.
1t is said to be true also that war
develops poets among the soldiers
and this can well be believed by any
body who has visited one or more of
the cantenments.
Below is given selections of camp
poetry some of which has never be-
fore been printed and which was
written by Vermont soldiers One of
the poems comes from Camp Bartlett,
one from Fort Kelly, near San An
tonic, Texas, one from Camp Devens
and another is Of unknown parent
age:
THE VERMONT REGIMENT
After the war was declared last April
And we had tho't about it bit
And discussed 1t with our families,
And had their opinions Of it,
We decided to join the army,
To enlist in the National Guard,
To uphold our country's honor,
Where our allies had fought so
hard.
We would be with our own fellows,
The lads we had always known,
We thought that that would be Sc
fine,
When we were far from home.
We could talk of old school days,
When we used to have such fun,
Before we knew of submarines,
Or heard of the Lewis Gun.
1t would be such a comfort to the
home folks.
To know that their boy far away
Was with that fine clean fellow,
Who used to live DER the way
1t would be mighty fine for our sweet
heart,
To know that we were around,
To watch her younger brother,
And keep him safe and sound.
And we thought that we would be
fighters.
AS our grandfathers fought, .
In the war of the Rebellion,
And as their examples taught
We would strive and die together,
And nothing would us daunt,
We would be the Volunteers,
OF glorious Vermont.
T'would be the only unit,
That would be given a chance,
To carry the dear old state flag,
To the battle fields of France.
We didn't want to be drafted.
But soon made up our minds,
That as long as our country was in 1t
We would let the people find
That old Vermont would do her share
