Railroad to the Monte Cristo and
Many Other Developments Pro
posed in Vicinity of Wickenburg.

Mining activities in the vicinity OF
Wickenburg show a decided increase
Among improvements contemplated
is railway to the Monte Cristo mine.
The proposed road will cut the dis
tance four miles, the present wagon
road being 12 miles At the compile
tion Of the railway the Monte CristO
will be able to start operations on a
large scale. This is one Of the rich
est silver mines in the southwest.
The mine has been working small
shifts for several years, but soon
should be able to begin shipping
out good ore.
In the Vulture district the Tonopah-
Belmont and other properties are in
teresting new capital, and the old
Vulture mine which produced millions
in the early days will resume activ-
tiles as soon as the title is cleared.
These activities will tend to make
a new Wickenburg. Altogether the
outlook for the future is very bright,
and we can look forward to great
things for this community.
Continued activity in mining is evi-
dent here. Many engineers are COM
ing in. Placer ground, gold lode
claims and copper deposits are being
examined. Many more small sales
have been made recently in the vicin-
ity of the Tonopah-Belmont company
property, mostly of lead and silver
prospects.
Mining men are out in the hills
in the vicinity of the Monte Cristo
looking at the big leads there.

in the near future.
The old Ell Tigre mines near Aguila
have opened up again. Five men are
working now.

A road meeting was held Wednes-
day night at the Home Cafe to dis
cuss ways and means to improve the
road on the Tonopah-Belmont from

adjunct to any development here CT
anywhere else.

The following communication will
speak for itself:
UNITED STATES SENATE
Committee on Irrigation, Reclamation
March Is, 1926.

March 16, 1926.
Dear Bass:
Glad to have your letter of March
and note how you feel about the
cur in the suggestions you have
made. l am going before the COM
mittee and try to get this reported
out. 1t seems that precedent has
caused a snag to appear inasmuch as
it is necessary for the state authori-
ties to request congressional action
and that authority has not been re-
ceived as yet, but possibly we can
overcome it. l know what it will
have your views on it. Hop you are
in good health.
With personal regards,
Sincerely yours,
RALPH CAMERON.
The bridge across the Colorado at
Ehrenburg will be of great value to
Wickenburg and vicinity as much
more travel will come this way than
at present. A big country contiguous
to the river on this side will be
opened up and will be of material
benefit to the state in general.
Mr.. Bass has interests on the Col
orado and in the vicinity of Wicken-
burg. He is a booster for the bridge
and is doing his bit to get it.

CURED WHALE FLESH

The chief sanitary Inspector of Inver-
ness-shire, whose report has just been
published, deals with the curing of
whale flesh for human consumption
carried on at the Island of Harris.
He explains that the work was done
at the herring curing station at Lever
burgh, where the meat was cut into
small pieces, washed; and put into salt
pickle, afterwards being hung up on
frames and dried under mechanical
power. When thoroughly dry the whale
flesh was packed under pressure in small
kegs and was exported to the Congo for
the feeding of natives. Ibid.

SEE PROSPECTS
Of RENEWAL OF
FISHERMEN'S RACES

Gloucester. Mass, June S-(R-
Prospects for renewal of the inter-
national flshermen's race series ap-
peared bright today. Reports from
Nova Scotia that Captain Angus
Walters was willing to match his
schooner "Bluenose" against a Clio
cester fishing craft were interpreted
here as a favorable omen for 1928
series. There has been no interna-
tional race since 1928 when Captain
Walters refused to re-sail disputed
event at Halifax.
Gloucester fishermen recently made
overtures to the Canadian skipper to
renew the international competition.
A representative of the American
race committee journeyed to Halifax
70 interview the Canadian committee
and reported that considerable in
terest in the race existed in Nova
Scotia. There has been no definite
acceptance of the American challenge
however.
The race was won In 1922 by the
"Bluenose" of Lunenburg, with Wal
ters at the helm. In the fall of 1928
Captain Ben Pine Of Gloucester took
the schooner columbia" to Halifax
to race the "Bluenose." In one of
the contests the "Bluenose" passed
a buoy on the wrong side and the
Americans protested the race. Then
Captain Walters sailed away home,
refusing to obey the committees orc
der to re-sail the race. Since that
