PAY VISIT TO THE
 CRANN|S GROUP

w. D. Grannis accompanied by H. J. Royal and another Long Beach gentleman, departed to the Grannis mines, in Deluge Wash, last Thurs day morning, where they will look over the property. The group Is one of the best in the Cedar valley district and with further development ought to become an excellent producer of sl- yer ore. In the old days large ton mage of rich ore was taken from this property and shipped to the smelters. Recent development has exposed good bodies of mill ore and with depth this ore could largely be augmented The property is we'll situated for opera tion and it is hoped that the present company will be able to so finance it that deep work can be carried on.

Important Meeting
 Federal Commission

The federal trade commission is now holding a session at San Francis co to inquire into the charge that the Minerals Separation Company Ltd. has charged the users of their sep aration method exhorbitant royalties, and will remedy the evil if it is found that the charges has been sustained The company is composed of an Eng
 fish and an American and German subsidiary. This company secured judgments against some of the users of the Notation methods and the ef- fort of these companies is now being directed toward the cutting down of the heavy royalties and the lessening of the burden. When these compan- ies entered into the use of Notation it was the honest belief that they were using method developed partly by themselves and the basis of which has been of worldwide notoriety for many years before the Minerals Sep arations company laid claim to the patents.

GOLD MINING REACHES
 STILL LOWER LEVEL

That the production of world gold is largely on the decrease is further evidenced by the report received from the United States Geological Survey, covering 1919 and approximating 1920. This report will convince any sane person that the production of gold throughout the world will have to be treated fairly to induce greater production and to make it possible to maintain gold as metal money. With the present low development of gold mines and the world wide de- mand for metallic currency immed- fate action should be taken to bolster up this fact waning industry. The following is the report as sent out to the newspapers:
 The United States Geological Sur vey, Department of the Interior, has given out some preliminary figures showing the production of gold throughout the world in 1919. The production in the United States was 5S,2S5,19 Canada is reported to have produced $14,6S7 ,OO0; India $10,028,000; Australia (not including New Zealand or the Islands), $29,- 268,0O0; the Transvaal, $171 ,64O,123; Rhodesia and West Africa, $1S,631,- ; 070. There was a probably large de- crease in the production of gold in Russia and Siberia in 1919. Some in = crease was probably made in the out put of Central America and South America, which, however, was doubt. less offset by decreases in the output of other countries The incomplete returns now available indicate that the worlds production of gold in 1919 was between $345,OOO,OOO and $35O,- 000,0O0. The worlds production in 1918 amounted to $380,924, 500.
 The Geological Survey further states that information received dur ing the first six months of 1920 indi- cates a still further decrease in the production of gold in the United Stat es and that the output for the year will probably be less than $50, ,OOO, ,0OO. The production in Alaska, Colorado, California, Oregon and Montana will be much less in 1920 than it was in 1913, because water is very short for placer mining and many stamp mills are closed. Canada as a whole nav increase its output, although the pro- auction of the Yukon districts will be
 smaller than last year. The output or Russia can not be estimated. That of Australia will show decrease That of South Africa and South America will probably show no radi- cal decrease. According to the Geo. logical Survey the indications are that the decrease in the worlds produc tion of gold in 1920 will not be so great as it was in 1919.

SPOOkS DIRECT MINING
 ON THE N. C. 4 CLAIM

The Journal Miner tells weird story of the manner ir which affairs at the NC4 claim, in Yavapai county, is carried on by spooky promoters of the property. Everything is done at the direction of the Spirit Control" At a meeting of the miners in the tunnel on the property, few days ago, the medium addressed the men and then called for his control The spirit told him that by sinking 15 feet farther, drifting 15 feet and veer- ing 36 inches to the left a body of ore containing. 20,OO0,OOO ounces in silver would be encountered; that a crosscut 275 feet would cut a rich ledge of gold ore. The work is under way and we will soon see how far spirit direction will go along the lines of reality.
 Speaking of spirit control, we are reminded of the fact that all the big fellows who made their money in real estate and mining in San Francisco in the days of long ago, were drawn into the meshes of spiritualism. Among the many was the late Char les D. Lane, one of the best known mining operators on the coast. Lane had ghost" and one day this spir- itual fellow met him on the street and informed him that his brother John, who had been dead several years, wanted to converse with him. Lane accompanied the medium to his office and there had a seance with his broth CT. The next day the boys met Lane and wanted to know what John had to tell him. "Well, John wanted to talk with me about the mines," said Charley, "But John knew little about mines when he was alive, and he hasn't learned a damn thing since he died"
 It is possible that the spirit that animates the NC4 directorate may have something new about mining, not being in the same category as John Lane, and let us hope that he is real knowing fellow.

RECORDS PROMISED IN 1920
Millions to Be Spent In improving Public Highways and Transporta-
 tion Facilities.

The year 1920 promises to develop a revolution in Americas two great problems-highways and transporta- ton.
 All over the country great interest is being manifested in better roads and improved transportation facili- ties.
 The coming of the pneumatic-tired motortruck has given an impetus to the movement for a national highway system that is sweeping everything before it.
 State after state has passed, with out noticeable opposition, appropria- tionS for millions of dollars to build and improve main market and inter- county highways.
 What these activities portend can be visualized in some measure when 1t is said that of the 100000 miles of roadsin this country only 100000 miles are Improved.
 Motor transports work at highest ef- ficiency on good roads, although the pneumatic truck tire is rendering con- spicuous service in transporting heavy loads over swamp ground and the sandy soil of fruit groves.

UNITED AMERICAN
 CR0SSCUTT|NCON 500

The United American is driving TWO crosscuts near the heading in the east and west drifts on the 800 level In the west drift crosscut good ore has been encountered seventeen feet from the drift and it is probable that this will be found to be the main ore body. In the east drift the cross-cut has not reached pay, but there is indication that mill ore will be brought to light in that part of the mine. Within a few days another crosscut will be car ried across the big part of the vein where the best ore was found.
 The Tom Reed is driving toward the United American with the inten- tion of picking up the ore body at a deeper level The trend of the ore in all the Oatman mines is toward the west and north and any ore body that apexes on the mines to the east will in time be picked up by the westerly properties. This was the case with the Eastern, which picked up a di- verging ore body from the Tom Reed.

SILVER TRAILS MINES co. TO OPERATE
 DIAMOND JOE

This week the Silver Trails Mines company was organized by E. C. Bradshaw and c. w. Herndon with a capitalization of 100000 25 cent shares. The company was organized for the purpose of financing and op- erating the Diamond Joe mine. This is the property that the Miner has given the stamp of approval, it being our opinion that the mines are among the good things of the county. The veins are so situated that deep tunneling can be accom- plished with little dead work, the ore showing on the surface only short distance in from the point where the tunnel portal will be established. It is the opinion that the vein will show long shoots of ore from the portal to the north side of Diamond Joe Butte, and will get far below the apex. In the present works the ore shows evl- dence of intensive teaching and oper- ations below the leached zone is sure to bring the same rich ore that was found in the mine at the point of dis covery.
 At the present time the company is building road to the mine and be- fore many weeks this roadway will be an accomplished fact. The mill is being operated on a fine grade of ore and big results are being obtained.

SECRET PASS MINING
 COMPANY BUYS PROPERTY

This week o. D. M. Gaddis and l. M. George disposed of their holdings in what was formerly known as the Wilhelm group of mines in the Secret Pass section, about four miles north of Gold Road to the Secret Pass Min ing Co. These properties were deVel, oped extensively by Mir. Wilhelm and showed nice bodies of high grade mill ing ore. Some of the streaks in the vein were very rich in gold, splendid specimens of free gold having been secured in mining them. The proper ty is well situated, being on an ex. cellent highway and on the apex or the range at the Pass.
 By the way, Secret Pass was the only available pass through the noun tains for the pioneers of this country and was used by Lieut.. Beale when he made his famous reconnaissance through this section.

 AT LAKE MARY

Mir. and Mrs. Mert Wagner, MT. and Mrs. Harry Price, MT. and Mrs. Jack Wilson, Leona Wagner and Marion Granger spent the Fourth at Flag staff. They rented place at Lake Mary and some of the party will re- main for two or three weeks.
 Monday and Tuesday several of the party went to a nearby lake on a fish ing trip and landed about 200 perch. They all caught fish excepting Jack Wilson. We are informed by very good authority that the public should not heed Jacks stories which he is spreading around profusely. He caught one perch measuring 3 IS in ches and pretty nearly missed sup per while landing that ono.

The party was joined by Messrs. l. M. George and family, H. M. Crowther and Judge C.. G. Krook with their autos and the trip was made in their company. The party first visited the deep tunnel and enjoyed a ride to the breast of that big bore in a mule car, as well as the novelty of seeing the big drills biting into the hard ground in the heading. After the tunnel visit the party was carried to the top of the mountain, where the Banner mine and mill gave interest to those who were not famli- far with mining and milling. A ban auet was served at the company boarding house, which was greatly en- joyed by all participants.

Farmstead Buildings on Improved Highways Found in Better Shape

Have you ever compared the farm stead on an improved highway with one on a dirt road? Why in the for mer are the buildings in so much bet ter shape, the fences up and in a state of repair, the fields spick and span, the house grounds well kept and hedges trimmed, while in the latter the buildings are unpainted? Strange as 1t may seem, the difference is caused by the road.

JOHN BARTON PAYNE

In dealing with new people, one is always most interested to know what manner of folk they be- When a new person is filling a post as important to the country as that of secretary of the interior, the man. nef of man who is to fill it means much to us all. There is always the fear of what may happen to new wine and old bottles
 In certain conferences before John Barton Payne we have been privi- legged to watch forceful man at his work, and the sight was pleasant. The humor that turks behind the rugged features appearing in his photographs is much more visible in the flesh; it is a kindly, encom- passing sort of humor He is a di- rect, effective, modest man, without frills, pomp or ceremony. His man. ner was a bit deprecating, not of himself-not, certainly, of the peo- pie who were before him, and most emphatically not of the importance of the business that they were to discuss-but of the fact that a situ- ation which, was simply a discussion among business men to be settled on business principles should be sub ject to so much ceremony.
 He asked three or four direct questions of each man who talked to which he was grateful for as direct an answer. He wants facts, on which to hang accurate, quick decisions.
 We like such methods, and we like Secretary Payne. And, to con- tinue figure of speech that is especially appealing these days, we think there is going to be some life to this particular vintage of new wine-Mining Congress Journal.

HUNTERS ON RENAL LAKE
 BAG MOOSE

A party consisting of MT. and Mrs. F. c. Jack of HanscOm, Alaska, and Guide Howard Long, returned to Seward recently after spending a week in the Kenai lake district, says the Seward Gateway. The weather during the time the party was out was ideal for an outing and hunting trip and notwithstanding the fact that the moose are roaming in the high country Mrs. Jack succeeded in getting fine specimen. She is an expert shot and a sincere lover of the Big Out Doors and understand ing camp life from soup to nuts. It is no trouble. for her to climb the highest hills and she can endure all the harships attached to the unusual hunting trip as well as MT. Jack. She knocked over the moose she secured at a distance of l50 yards when it was possible to have approached much closer. Mir. and Mrs Jack having hunted in the same section during the season of 1917 with Guide Long and decided that they would return this season and spend their annual vacation with the man who was familiar with the country They are planning on a trip to the Alaska Peninsula some time in the near future in quest of the big brown bear and it is a safe bet that they will secure the limit if they elect to take Long along.

that there will be no place of shel- ter along the aforesaid trail, caus- in considerable inconvenience, hard ship and suffering.
 The legislature of Alaska in it's wisdom has provided for relief cabins along lonely trails, and it is the firm conviction of these afore- said mushers that there is no direr necessity anywhere in the territory for relief cabins than on this trail and believe that the territorial road commission can buy these houses for a small fraction of what it would cost to erect and equip relief cabins We believe there is much merit in the proposition and would suggest to those who are interested to men, the matter to R.
