F RST TEST RUN
MADE BY SILVER
MILL IN SIERRA

Special Correspondence to Tile Journal.l
Las Cruces N. NJ, March L.
Mountain Metal company's silver
mill near Chloride, in Sierra county,
New Mexico, northwest of Las
Cruces, made its first test run with
fifty tons oTore February "a. j.
H. McCutcheon. general manager,
reports that the trial resulted in a
high grade concentrate, The ore
run through the mill is a sulphide,
rich In silver, chalcopyrite and hor-
mite. The mill will run steadily.
The process is a water concen-
tration and flotation, the first of
its kind in the Black range noun
tains. The ore is first broken in a
lcrusher and then passes through a
ball grinder of special design and
the next into Dorr classifier
which delivers the shines to the
flotation machine and the sands to
Whitley table.
The capacity of the mill is fifty
tons a day. Steam power is used
to drive the machinery. which has
two 40-horse power boilers. There
are 1000 tons of ore broken and
on the dump ready to be milled.
Mr.. McCutcheon reports he has
bought 1000 cords of wood from
the forest reserve agents. Wood
cutters are now making camps in
the woods.
A force of miners was put at
work in the mine recently. They
are breaking ore and storing it in
the workings ready to be sent to
the mill as needed. 1t is reported
there is fully 25O,00G tons of ore,
worth $50 a ton, in sight in the
mine. besides the high grade ore
for shipment to smelter. The mine
Is reported to have produced sew
hundred thousand dollars in for
mer years, and is still in its in
fancy. The resumption of opera
lions is the beginning of activity
throughout that rich district.
The Midnight and Tidal Wave
Mining company is erecting a So
. ton mill on its properties about
7 seven miles south Of the Silver
Mountain Metals mill, which will
also use the concentration and flo
tation process. This property is
under the management of M. Help
ing. The Groch centrifugal flota"
ton machine similar to the one in
the Silver Metals mill, is being in
stalled.
1t is estimated that in the Blac'
range mining district there are APP
proximately 500, 100000 worth of
ore that can be profitably treated
If the present concentration and
flotation process proves success.
In the Black range district are
hundreds of old dumps of ore in as

to bear the long wagon haul,

GREAT BUSINESS FOR
1921 REPORTED BY NEW
YORK LIFE ms. co.

The life insurance companies are
not complaining of hard times, al
though the lapses are heavy and
many policy-holders are borrowing
money on their policies. New bus
mess shows a falling off from the
record figures of 1920, but is still
the largest in its history with the
exception of that year. So the
New York life announces in its
seventy seventh annual report
published in another column. Its
new insurance was five hundred
and eighty-six million dollars, in
come was over two hundred mil
lions, and payments to policy-hold-
ers over one hundred and TWEEN
ty-four millions. A lower death
rate, a higher interest rate, larger
sums paid in dividends, endow-
ments and for surrendered policies
are the outstanding features Of the
report.
The company goes back to nor
malcy in the valuation of it's secur-
tiles. In the early years of life
insurance and until war times the
companies listed their bonds at
market values. But the war
brought high interest rates and
first class bonds showed a heavy
decline in price. The law allows
such bonds to be listed at their cost
price with the proper changes for
amortization. The New York Life
in stating its surplus now advances
to normally and lists over six hun
dred millions of bonds at their
market values, under the rules
approved by the convention of In
surance commissioners. This meth
cd reduces the New York LIES
admitted assets and surplus over
fifty million dollars. But all LA
bilities are provided for and a
comfortable surplus shown. Over
one hundred million dollars are set
aside for dividends, over forty-two
millions of which will be paid dur
ing 1922.
This great life insurance COM
pany is represented in New Mex
leo by e. D. Sisll, of this city, who
is the agency director for the COM
pany in this state. Mr.. Sisk SAYS,
I'm New Mexico, as we'll ns
throughout the country, the COM
pany shows remarkable gains with
s2,020,600 of new paid business for
1921, and total of almost eleven
millions of insurance in force
within this state"

CANAL PROJECT
IS SUBJECT Of
A JOINT DEBATE
Gov. Miller of New York
Opposes Great LakeS-St.
Lawrence Proposal; Kan
SaS Governor FaVorS 1t.

Washington, March 1.-The bat
tie n and against the Great Lakes
st. Lawrence ship canal project
was fought for nearly three hours
today in 4 debate before the nation
al rivers and harbor congress be-
tween governor of two states
Henry j. Allen, of Kansas and Ma"
than l.. Miller, of New York.
Governor Allen, aided by II. II,
MerricE, Of Chicago, former presi-
dent of tho Mississippi Valley asso-
citation, championed the project,
while Governor Miller took the
negative side.
The cry Of "sectionalism" early
was brought into the joint debate
of the governors, who were brought
together on the rostrum after re-
cent newspaper exchanges between
them. Governor Allen and Mr..
Merrick attributed New York OPP
position to the st. Lawrence pro-
tect to a desire to protect the in
terests Of New York harbor and
state and the New York barge
canal Governor Miller denied and
decried sectionalism.
Governor Allen stressed the
tragedy Of transportation" from
which, he declared, the middle
west had suffered. The proposed
canal, he said. would bring ocean
going vessels to the lake ports, aid
ing the transportation shortage of
eighteen middle western states.
besides, he added, power develop
ment Of the project would give
great power supplies to the eastern
states and the whole project, he
argued, could be financed and paid
for within fifty years from the
power receipts.
Governor Miller emphasized the
cost of the project and branded the
international commissions favor
able report as "superficiaP and
one of utter worthlessness. The
cost he added, would greatly ex-
coed the estimate of $3.50, 100000.
and he declared that the project
ought not to proceed without fur
Their extensive investigation.
Cost Of the project figured large
ly throughout the debate, in con-
clusion, Governor Allen declared:

it's question Of giving to 43,00O.-
600 Americans of the middle ives;
