RAILROADS IN STATE
 RAISE FARES JUNE 3

DOUGLAS. May 3l-Railroad fares in Arizona will be increased 20 per cent June 3. F. K. Raumake-. manager Of the Southern Arizona Traffic asso- ciation, was informed by telegraph yesterday The increase is the result of the findings of the interstate com. merce commission. which set aside the decision of the Arizona state corpora- tion commission to prevent the io- crease in fares and freight rates. In the majority of the other states the 20 per cent increase has been iu e!fec, for several months. but the action of the traffic associations of Douglas and Phoenix has held it in abeyance in this state.
 Raumaker also was informed that his protest against the railroad com pany charging for the trip from Os- born to Bisbee and return enroute to Tucson has been upheld by the con- mission and the fare to the Old Pu- eblo will be 43 cents cheaper in the future. Since the trains were routed via Bisbee the carriers have been charging for the extra mileage, al though the average traveller had no desire to enter Bisbee on his way to Tucson.

ThE MINING SITUATION

With the closing down of practical ly all of the big copper mines mills and smelters of the western mining states since the first of the month and with the railroads serving the west releasing thousands of em- ployes and still demanding exhorbi- [ tant freight rates: with building ac- tivities at practical standstill. and with merchants everywhere at their wits ends to know what to do the sit nation confronting the surrounding region certainly has taken on gloomy aspect. says the Mining Re view Of Salt Lake
 Strenuous efforts have been made for months to stave off the inevitable the situation now existing-bN without avail; it just had to come | There is nothing to be gained in dwell. i ing on conditions responsible for this
  final crash. Every person able to read knows what they are. for full and frank explanations have come from authoritative sources in every direc- | ton. The past is dead. let the dead past bury its dead What concerns us is now What of the future?
 Every red -blooded American in the west is already peeling off his coat in preparation for the full speed ahead drive that he knows must soon begin. The fact is appreciated of course, that the copper branch of the metal mining industry will be slow in regaining its equilibrium. that the markets must ba found and developed for the enormous accumulation of copper with which the country is surfeited The task is a herculean one. but never fear-it Will be accomplished. In other lines of mining the situation is less tense. Sl- ounce. the price Of lead is beginning to show improvement and the opinion prevails that zinc will gradually ad vance along with lead as the wheei- of industry acquire momentum.
 Efforts are being made to keep the silver-lead mines working and the smeiters which treat this class of ore in operation. There will certainly have 10 be some readjustment made in freight rates and smelter charges before the siiyer-lead mines can op- crate al profit, but mine managers do not wish to close down their mines and are threshing out the problems which now confront them. They are running under reefed sails.
 The situation is entirely differen, with gold mining. Gold mining is re ceivin2 every day renewed attention Prospectors and idle miners are al ready out seeking new fields and old properties wherein they can find pre- ti-able employment. From Alaska to Mexico the search is on and occasional fragments of news finds it's way into print which would indicate that thei, efforts are being rewarded.
 New silver bearing ledges are also being exploited in various sections and the undertone of general sen.i. ment all seems to favor an early re. turn Of activity and possible boom in the precious metal mining. The gold seekers are securing the hills of Ne vada and northern Arizona, prospect CTS are out in full force. Claims that they have not seen since before the war are revisited and inspected for new work. It is predicted that the coming fall and winter will see the greatest gold mining activity in twen- ty years.
