SAFETY FIRST PLAN IS
 NOW MEETING WITH WIDESPREAD APPROVAL

Safety Firsti That was the slogan that was begun not so very long ago. Since it was first introduced to the miners by the Phelps-Dodge corpora tion through w. w. Gidley, safety first expert, through diligent work and untiring efforts on the part of the mine bosses and foremen the word Safety First has come to mean great deal to the average miner. It has set him to thinking before a fatal accl- dent occurred and it has made 1t pos sible for him to go to wofk in the morning with full knowledge that he will go back home alive when the day has ended, provided he observes the rules of caution. The best safety device, he has been taught, is care full man, and as result everybody has benefited. The accidents for the past two years have been trifling and only minor injuries have resulted.
 An illustration of some of the Safety First Cautions now posted con- spicuously in the various Copper queen Iul1cS 10 luS AOAiO"ihS'
 Be Careful.
 "There are no round trip tickets to the graveyard.
 Your body is big part of your capital-Don't invest it in the Bank of Careless Habits.'
 Short cuts often result in sharp cuts at the hospital.
 "The Bank of Safety pays 100 per cent and never fails"
 The results have been astonishing. It has set the men to thinking of themselves and others. Safety First is preached by the shift bosses, the mine bosses and everyone else until at last the danger that turks beneath the ground has been defeated by men who think for themselves.

PRODUCER PLAYING IN LUCK AS PRICE SCARS
Silver One of Few Articles of Commerce Which
 Was Stabilized

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Silver is one of the few articles fcommerce stabilized by war conditions and great credit is due to Senator Pittman of Ne vada and Hon. Ray Baker director of the U. s. mint, in this connection. The threatened action of the government which two years ago proposed to fix the price of silver at S6 cents per ounce, resulted in conventions at Salt Lake and Denver, called by the west ern chapters of the American mining congress. A big delegation from silver producing states was appointed. Gov. Emmett D. Boyle of Nevada, who per sonally headed the Nevada delegation in Washington acting as chairman. It was shown that it cost as high as $1 to produce an ounce of silver bullion in the mines and districts where sill yer was the chief product. The ad- ministration had no desire to close down American silver camps and en- dorsed bill introduced by Hon. Key Pittman authorizing the director of the mint to purchase 300, 0,000,000 ounces of silver bullion at $1 per ounce. The passage of this legislation prevented disaster to the silver indus try. Now that war is over and em- bargoes have been removed, silver is selling in the open market in excess of $104 and some private export con- tracts have gone to $1.11. Silver can not go below $1, while Director Baker has an appropriation left under the Pittman bill.

TrOgIodyte Mule Enjoys His Life On 16OO H. LeUeL

Way down in the Sacramento shaft on the 13, 14, 15 and 1900 foot levels there are eight mules that eat, work and sleep in the bowels of the earth, and from their healthy appearances it is prob able they wouldn't swap their un- derground home fora field a new mown hay.
 They are fat, they are robust and just like the average mule, they aFe-a-trifle sassy. That's just natural.
 How did they take them down there? It was a big job. When the need for mules became urgent in the underground shafts, they just naturally tied their legs to- gether so they couldn't kick, set them on their launches in a 6x4 cage and as they sat upright in the cage they were lowered to their home beneath the ground. An they've been there ever since. They've got stables that are em- maculately clean and stacks of al- falfa and grain that would make a Mexican horse quit his cart and lower the worlds record for a quarter of mile.
 It's their home and they are proud of it and perfectly con- tented.

MINE DIVIDENDS
 SHOW DECREASE : IN PAST MONTH
Four of Arizona Companies Disburse No Dividend at All in April

Four Arizona mining companies and one Montana company which have reg ularly declared dividends have been forced to pass up any distribution of earnings of April of this year. The Magma, Superior, the Iron Cap and the Arizona Commercial of Globe, and the United Verde failed to declare April dividends, as well as the North Butte of Montana.
 But five copper mining companies made dividend distributions during April, payments aggregating $2,664, ,657, compared with total of $4,361 ,644 in the corresponding month of last year by 12 concerns.
 Dividend payments in first four months of the last four years show this comparison:

DECREASE IN 1918 MINE PRODUCTION
 OF NEW MEXICO
But Gold, Silver, Lead, Zinc and Copper in Large
 Quanties Mined

The output of the mines of New Mexico for the first II months of 1918 and the estimated output for Decem- Der, as reported by Charles W. Hen derson, of the United States Geologi- cal Survey, Department of the Inter for, amounted to S6S1, ,0O0 in gold, S6S.- 900 ounces of silver, 9,250,00 pounds of lead, 9S,62O,OOO pounds of copper, and 25,O0O,0O0 pounds of recoverable zinc. valued in all at BPS, S,625,000 as compared with S1,O67,969 in gold, 1,453,454 ounces of silver, 9,501 ,000 pounds of lead, los, ,56S,OO pounds of copper, and 3O,2OO,OOO pounds of zinc, with a total value of s34,9S6,765, in 1917. These preliminary figures thus show decreases of $3S7, 7,000 in gold, 5000 ounces in silver, 251 900 pounds in lead. 100000 pounds in copper, and 5,2OO, ,OOO pounds in zinc.
 The decreased output of gold and silver was general throughout the state. Mills of the Mogollon district, Socorro county, yielded $115,94S in gold and 312,000 ounces of silver, con- pared with S25S,62O in gold and 722, 2,644 ounces in silver in 1917. This district in 1916 yielded S373.06S in gold and S1 DOS, ,483 in ounces of silver. In 1918 the mill of the Mogollon Mines com pany was operated steadily, but the new mill of the Socorro Mining & Mill ing company, built to replace that de- stroyed by fire on October 26, 1917, was put in operation August and ran until October IS, when operations were suspended on account of the in- fluenza epidemic; milling gold from the Aztec mine at Baldy, Colfax coun- ty. was not so large as in 1917. The yield of gold-bearing siliceous copper ore of Lordsburg was less than in 1917, as was also the yield of the gold-bear- ing iron-copper ores of Orogrando. The San Pedro copper-matting plant, in Santa Fe county, was operated for only three months in 1918. The pro duct of this plant carries both gold and silver. The gold production from Pinos Altos decreased, and there was only small yield of gold from White oaks, Lincoln county, but a small ad- dition to the gold output was made by the new amalgamation mills at Par sons and Nogal, also in Lincoln coun- ty.
 Copper, the principal metal product of New Mexico, is produced in sev- eraI districts. The greater part of the output comes from the Chino Copper company's low-grade copper deposits at Santa Rita. The ore is milled as Huxley. in larger wet concentration flotation plant. In 1917 this com pany's output was 79,501, ,333 pounds,

SILVER PRICE RAISE
 UNLOCKS ROY MINE

E. T. Barnett, manager fthe Roy mine in the Cinco de Mayo district, Mexico, was in Douglas several days last week conferring with the owner, Hon. B. A. Packard, who fell heir to the property severadl years ago when the price of silver reached 49 cents per ounce, and stopped operation on the mine MT. Barnett has been in charge of the property for three months and during that time has installed 50 ton Notation mill and said this morning that he expected to begin production during the next 30 days.
 On the old dumps are now about 25,O00 tons of ore ready for the mill and besides there are probably 10,- 900 tons of second class ore in the mine which was piled away dur ing the production of the higher grade during production in the past.
 At the mill are employed now about 16 men and in the mine are some 40 men at work taking out ore on a leasing plan. All this ore will be milled as soon as the plant is ready for operation and with silver now worth about $1.2O per ounce the out look for prosperity at the Roy mine is looking exceedinly well.
 MT. Barnett is returning to the prop erty today, having come to Douglas for supplies, including some stationery which was provided by the Daily h. ternationsl job printing establishment.

The record of the Safety Depart ment of the Copper Queen shelter shows that the number of permanent injuries per thousand men employed was reduced from 1.05 in 1915 to .43 in 1917. The central safety committee is composed of the representative of the employees.
 The United Verde Extension mad al- most 21,O00,O00 pounds of copper on hand on January 1, represented by ore in transit, bullion in transit, and bullion in process of refining. The new shelter at Verde started opera ton in July, 1918, and is capable of most economical reduction.

 The Arizona Copper company did al. most 5000 feet of churn drilling to prospect their ground around the Cor onado adit during 1918. Prospecting by this method consists of plac. ing deep drill holes, and assaying samples of material obtained from diff ferent depths.
