was not an issue in the last cam

HIGH GRADE SILVER
FIND NEAR klNGhAN

kINGMAN, Ariz., Oct. 30.-A strike
OF considerable importance has been
made on the Silver King mine, fifteen
miles east OF Kingman, by Walter My
e-s Mr. Myers had started tunnel
to tap the old water channel in the
mine for irrigation purposes and
when in about 40 feet from the old
works cut a st-inger of ore that ran
better than $500 in silver. This string
er has a strike toward the ore bear
ing vein, from which. many thousand
tons OF ore was taken in the early
days and appears TO be part OF the
faulted segment of the main vein.
Toward the east the s;ringer shows
increasing width and greater strength.
\ few years ago an effort was made
10 pick up the faulted part OF the
vein below the 50 foot level. but the
drifting was carried along the fault
plane without reaching the ore. II is
now probable that several sections Of
the vein will now be picked up and
that a good producer will result. The
old ore body was one of the most ir-
poItant in Maynard district. and with
the opening of the vein at lower
horizon a better and more widely min
cralized area is sure TO be developer.

opinion on the subiSt from several
of the outside counties where reports
have been received OF violation OF the
