MINES ACTIVE IN SONORA

DOUGLAS. Jan. 9-Charles Holmes. manager of the North Tigre Mining company. in Fl Tigre district. Sonorl. Mexico. is in ihe state for a few days. and reports silver mining is active in that district as wei as other parts of Sonora.
 The outlook in Mexico, he says. is particularly promising from the fact that the eMxiian government is lend ing every encouragement to it. having recently abolished the export duty on metals. The closing of the copper mines is another advantageous factor as it causes large supply Of skilled miners for the silver mines al reduc- ed wages.
 Several thousand miners have been let out from the copper mines al Cananea and Nacozari. and there is an abundance of labor The silver mines may be able 10 absorb this idle labor. and for this reason th ? government is doing everything pos sible 10 encourage their operation.
