Authentic Reports Declare Copper Will Be Fixed at Twenty-Five Cents When Board Meets in May.

RumOrs are being circulated throughout the east from very good quarters to the effect that when the copper interests meet the Government authorities in May to discuss the price of copper there is a very good chance that the price of the metal will be increased 10 25 cents. It is also said that in addition to raising the official price the conference will also settle the differences which have arisen between the producers and the refiners in regard 10 the charges for the refining of the metal. These re- ports reached the Warren district in many channels during the past several days
 The belief that the price of the metal will be raised to 9 cents is based cn the sharp increase in the cost of production. A large number of the copper companies have issued their annual reports for last year and they all reveal a very much higher cost over the previous years and ex- ceedingly higher than in normal times
 Taking the cost of construction and the excess profits taxes it cost the Calumet & Hecla Company last year over r cents per pound to pro duce it's copper as against about F cents in 1916 and between 10 and II cents in normal years. Other Lake companies show the same relatives in creases and the pOrphyries have been just as adversely affected.
 Although the Anaconda costs are not published it is understood that the increase in the cost of that com pany last year was around five cents per pound. As these higher expenses were brought about chiefly by forces entirely outside the control of the producers. and in some cases the wag- es of the miners have been increased by activities of the Government rep resentatives. these seems good req son to expect that the War Board will take such action as will encourage the producers tc make strenuous efforts 10 increase the output of their prop critics. It is realized that nothing would bring this about better than an increase in the price of the metal to 25 cents pound.

.LEASERS OPEN UP RUNOR PREDICTS
 BONANZA ROCK INPRICE ADVANCES HIGGINS DISTRICT FOR FALL METAL
CBy Billy Delbridge)

A body of ore as rich as ever dis covered in the Warren district. has been opened up in the Higgins mine by leaseTs and it has the appearance Of being very large deposit.
 Three rounds of holes have been blasted in the high grade and the fourth round is being drilled as this article is being written. in a full breast of solid cuprite ore. which is the highest grade of copper ere in the camp.
 The ore was struck on a fault run ming north and south, about 150 feet from the boundary line of the Copper Queen. in a portion of the Higgins ground hitherto undeveloped.
 The story of the find is stranger than fiction. Ed. Stoltz. a resident Of the district for seventeen years. had worked for a long time in the South west mine of the Queen and was ia miliar with the formation When he went to work in the Higgins, 'he be- came convinced that this section of the mine was the same formation and with his partner, Dan Levy. made a careful inspection of the surface indi- cations which resulted in the decision to take a chance of striking the ore zone by crOsscutting from the Hig- gins tunnel.
 A lease was secured for a year and the drift started in the hardest of lime formations. Many rounds had to be blasted the second time to break the ground. Requiring financial as sistdnce. Albert Bergquist, of Wat kins & Bersquist. and Wm. Robinson acquired a quarter interest each. Rob insOn is an old timer in the camp. com ing here fifteen years ago and he has had opportunity to study the fOrma- ton in every part of the district He Is a tireless prOspectOr and one of the best practical miners in the camp Bergquist has worked in the mines. although now in business. and he has keen conception of ore values snd the character of ore deposits found in the Warren district.
 It was necessary to drive 125 feet before reaching the ground which had been leased to them by the Hig- gins. and herein lies the part that seems almost incredible Five feet in- side their own line they struck green carbonate ore in the lime; they turned to the right and in about fifteen feet struck the immense body of cuprite which will doubtless put them all on easy street" and incidentally furnish Uncle Sam with lots of copper. put a number of miners 70 work and benefit every business enterprise in the dis trict
 These men deserve no small amount of credit for their demonstration of what true grit and intelligence can do in Bisbee and the best wishes of the are being extended on ev- cry hand

ARIZONA COMMERCIAL
 PROSPECT IS BRIGHT

Arizona Commercial Mining Com pany's showing for the year ended December last was all that stockhold- CTS could wish for. when it is taken into consideration that operations were seriously interrupted in the last half of the year. owing 10 the strike of miners But for this strike it Is apparent that much larger earnings would have been realized. Although the strike started in July and opera tions were resumed shortly before the first of September. normal con ditiOns. however. did not prevail un- til practically the close of the year. SO that the last six months earnings were entirely unsatisfactory.
 Net earnings before deducing the excess profits tax for which the com pany reserved S62. .643. amounted to S464.751. as compared with S54S,76S in 1916. equivalent tO S1.75 per share against S2.O7 in the previous year. Out of this total Arizona Ommercial paid in dividends $1 1.6O of which ten cents was paid to stockholders in the form of a Red Cross dividend. Thus be- fore allowing for depreciation and tax es there was a surplus after divi- dends amounting to S40.751.
 Last year ArIzcna Commercial mined 39.7O2 tons of ore from which S.S6O,949 pounds of copper were pro- duced. as compared with 4S,SS9 tons in the previous year from which was extracted 4.17S.474 pounds. Thus it would seem that the company is run ming into a much better grade of ore. With favorable conditions off the rest of the current year indications point to the best twelve months nj the com pany's history. Another factor which hurt earnings was the substantial de- cline in silver which totaled only 3 POS ounces This low production came at most inOppOrtune time as the price for silver was substantially higher in 1917 than existed in 1916
 In order to reach a fairer basis to compute the excess profit taxes the company marked up the value of it's mine and plant from Sl.705,062 in 1916 to $3.732.075 last year.
 Present indications appear most fa- vorable for Arizona Commercial. With better grade of ore being encoun- tered it is apparent that copper pro duction will establish a new high rec ord. In addition. the company ought to realize a much larger profit from its silver production with the price of the metal set at the dollar mark.

MINING ACTIVITY IN 0kTMAN DISTRICT IS
 GIVEN BIG IMPETUS

OATMAN. Ariz.. April 2S.- Mining activity in the Oatman District has received a decided impetus within the past two weeks. The Openenig of the Gold Road mill by the Gold Ore Min ing Company has resulted in the em- ployment of a largely increased force of men.

IDAHO has done much dur
ing the past year to help win
the war. 1t has heavily over
subscribed to all war funds,
furnished over five thousand
men for the army and navy,
overawed the !. w. W., and
is now organizing a militia to
quel possible future internal
disturbances-all without the
trouble and expense of con-
vening the legislature in spec
ial session. And no one has
said that the state cannot con-
tinue up to this high standard
through the present year
without a special session.
However, men in a position
to know are saying that there
is an immediate need of more
laws and more funds and
more power. The council of
defense, consisting of twenty
nine citizens, sets forth some
matters which it considers too
urgent to wait until the regu-
lar session which will convene
a year hence, and there is
now every indication that
special session will be called
next month to put the state
on a more efficient war basis.

airmen bombed the American posi-
ton in France without effect. In
Italy the British and Italian
