Drilling has begun in Mogollon by Columbus Silver Corporation, focusing on the Independence-Ida May and Anna E veins.
The drilling program commenced four weeks ago at Columbus Silver's 100 percent controlled Mogollon silver-gold project.
The Mogollon Project covers an extensive, silver-gold bearing vein field with reported historic production, largely from the Little Fanney and Last Chance mines during the period 1905 to 1925, and the Consolidated Mine from 1937 to 1942, of 15.7 million ounces silver and 327,000 ounces gold from approximately 1.7 million tons of ore.
There are two sets of veins at Mogollon, an east-west set represented by the productive Little Fanney and Last Chance veins, and a north-south set represented by the Queen vein developed in the Consolidated Mine.
The current drilling program at Mogollon will consist of 7,500-8,000 feet deep, in up to 14 diamond core holes and will test the east-west trending Independence-Ida May and Anna E veins.
The highly prospective east-west veins have near-surface characteristics similar to the historically productive Little Fanney and Last Chance veins at Mogollon but have only been explored by shallow workings.
Columbus Silver is a silver exploration and development company operating in the Western United States possessing an experienced management group with a strong background in all aspects of the acquisition, exploration, development and financing of mining projects.
Columbus Silver's project activities are managed on an exclusive basis by Cordex, owned and operated by John Livermore and Andy Wallace, who have a long and successful history of discovery and mine development in the United States.
Columbus Silver maintains active prospecting and evaluation programs and currently controls a 100 percent interest in eight silver properties in Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Nevada.

Mogollon Project Back Up And Running
Cottonwood Sixth Grader Repeats
SOCORRO -- For the second straight year, Alice Zheng, a sixth grader at Cottonwood, won the Socorro County spelling bee at the Socorro Courthouse.
Zheng won the competition by spelling “accomplice” correctly.
“It was more difficult last year,” Zheng said, “because there were more words.”
Zheng will represent Socorro in the state spelling bee in Albuquerque on March 10. Zheng said she made it through the third round last year at the state competition.
Finishing second was Sean Moore, a sixth grader at Saracino Middle School and third was Anjik Ghosh, an eighth grader at the Charter School.
Moore and Ghosh battled it out for second place and Moore prevailed when he spelled “altitude” and “evaluate” correctly. Ghosh missed on “eavesdropper.”
Zheng was the only speller of four to spell correctly in the final round as she was right on “larynx.” In that round, Moore missed on “indelible”, Barak Stephens missed on “financier” and Ghosh missed “supplement.”
In all, there were 19 rounds and moderator Chuck Zimmerly gave out 243 words to 35 different contestants from across the county.
The Socorro Electric Cooperative sponsored the spelling bee. Each of the contestants received a medal of participation. The winner received a $200 savings bond, the runnerup received a $100 savings bond and third place finisher received $75. Near the end of the competition, Zimmerly probably summed it up best when he said: “We’ve got some dynamite spellers. Let’s keep it going.”

Burglary Rate Slows In Socorro
SOCORRO – The rate of burglaries in Socorro has slowed, according to reports at the Socorro Police Department. In fact, there have been no reported burglaries in the past two weeks.
Officer Richard Lopez told the Mountain Mail that by the third week of January, 13 arrests have been made in connection with a series of burglaries beginning the first of the year.
“We don’t believe there was a gang, or organized burglary ring. Just guys going from one neighborhood to another,” Lopez said. “All those arrested were juveniles.”
Lopez said one suspect has an arrest warrant pending and has not been located.
“Since charging the 13 suspects we haven’t had a single burglary,” he said. “It looks like we were able to hit a note. One we arrested was linked to several of these burglaries. Once he was arrested, they stopped.”
He said he has interviewed 10 other suspects. “There will more arrests as our investigations continue,” he said.
The last burglary report in Socorro was January 22.
Lopez said it was important for victims of burglary to contact the police as soon as possible.
“We had one victim who heard someone trying to open his door at two o’clock in the morning. He opened the door and confronted the suspect, who then fled. He was able to pick the guy out of a lineup,” he said. “But he didn’t call us until eight in the morning. We learned from the suspect that if he had called us at 2 a.m. it might have prevented five more robberies that night. If we have the information we act on it. That’s our job. Call us.”
Lopez said the most common items stolen were laptops, Xbox 360s, Wii games, and firearms.
“We’re starting to crack down on those buying this stolen property,” Lopez said. “We will be prosecuting them as well as the burglary suspects. It makes it harder on the burglars to sell what they’ve stolen.”
The important thing, Lopez said, “is to either have a record of your serial numbers, or engrave items with your name.
“Always remember to lock your vehicles. Take valuables out of your vehicles at night and try to park in a lighted area,” he said.
“Also call us if you see something suspicious, like if someone is loading up stereo equipment, or something out of the ordinary in the neighborhood.”
Co-op Offers $5,000 Reward
SOCORRO – The Socorro Electric Cooperative along with Tri-State Generation and Transmission Co-op are offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for stealing copper from power poles in the Tierra Grande area in Socorro and Valencia Counties.
Co-op general manager Polo Pineda said close to 200 poles have been vandalized in northern Socorro County. Somebody had cut the ground wire and removed the copper wire in the pole, which has a street value of $600, according to Pineda. In all, the loss to the co-op has spent $50,000 to replace the poles that had been vandalized. Pineda said the copper will be replaced by copper clad, a metal that is coated with copper, which has no street value.
“We had a couple of leads. Somebody said they saw a blue mini-van with no plates and the other saw a maroon mini van. All the authorities have been contacted.”
Richard Lopez, the engineering and operations manager at the co-op, said pole grounding is a vital part of the electric service grid. Those who are stealing the wire are putting themselves at great risk of getting electrocuted.”
“We need to have a detective run this down,” trustee Jack Bruton said.
New Mexico State Police are currently investigating the theft. If you have any information, contact New Mexico State Police or Lopez at the Socorro Electric Coop – 1-800-351-7575.
At the Jan, 27 meeting, trustee Donald Wolberg, once again, brought up conflict of interest issues in regards to co-op attorney Dennis Francish, who also represents the Continental Divide co-op.
“There are rules of professional conduct that guide us that specifically deal with conflict of interest,” Francish said.
Wolberg, though, insisted the co-op get some kind of agreement from an independent entity in regards to the attorney.
“My concern centers on potential conflicts involving both cooperatives directly or indirectly via possible projects, postures requiring the co-ops involved to be on different sides of any legal or regulatory issue; contracts with vendors or any entity which may require legal action or liabilities, and any of those legal or regulatory issues that I do not understand or know about but which may arise,” Wolberg said in an email Thursday night. “In such instances it may be required for the attorney involved to not take either side and recuse himself/herself. In this instance we would be required to contract another attorney. I am also concerned that an attorney representing more than one cooperative may/will be privy to confidential or proprietary information.
“I am making no statement regarding capabilities, qualifications, reputation, etc., but I am simply expressing concern for possible conflicts of interest that might impact the SEC. For example, my concern in this matter vanishes if the attorney decides to represent only the SEC, and decides to not represent the other cooperative. My concern also lessens if there is an available formal opinion from an external source defining the issue of conflict of interest within the context of an entity such as the SEC.”
Francish was hired last year, but Wagner pointed out the SEC did not go through its usual vetting process.
“When Joanna Aguilar was hired, there were advertisements and we looked at resumes,” Wagner said. “In this case, we didn’t do this. The decision was made by Co-op president Mr. (Paul) Bustamante.”
Wolberg also discussed the possibility of an informational meeting for members, tentatively scheduled for March 27 at the Finley Gym, pending board approval. The meeting would allow members to ask questions of the trustees as a preview for the general meeting, which will be scheduled in April.
The agenda for the informational meeting was discussed during a committee meeting Monday, consisting of Wolberg, Leo Cordova and Milton Ulibarri. The agenda will be set, pending board approval.
Wolberg also set up an email address for members to discuss issues with the co-op trustees. The email address is sectellme@ gmail.com and Wolberg said he would answer every email.
In other business, the board:
• Unanimously passed a resolution that would sponsor Richard Lopez’s trip to Haiti to help build a substation in earthquake-devastated Haiti. Lopez was asked by the NRECA International and the trip would take two weeks. Originally Pineda told the board that Lopez was going to do this on his vacation time but Wolberg suggested that Lopez should go on co-op time.
“There are still many variables on this effort so I do not have a lot of the details, “ Lopez said last week. “Logistics will not be the best and the work will be hard. There are a lot of relief efforts going on and electricity as you know has grown to be a necessity for logistics itself. I have not been to Haiti, but I have helped build a substation with their neighbors in the Dominican Republic. I am really excited to go.”
• Passed a resolution that would let the co-op proceed with the four-year plan that was presented by Lopez last month.
• The co-op moved its next meeting to Feb. 9 instead of Feb. 10 because the new trustees have to travel to Atlanta for training.
Socorro County Sheriff's Blotter
Dec. 2
A man on Santa Fe Lane reported at 6:40 p.m. that he had left the Alamo reservation and had left a vehicle there. He learned that the suspect, his ex-girlfriend, is trying to sell the vehicle.

EDITORIAL: Are All Socorro Hotels Created Equal?
and Gary Jaramillo, Publisher
Are we all in this together or not?
These tough economic times have devastated a lot of residents and businesses in Socorro.
Hotels have been hit especially hard. From what I have heard, there are obviously other people concerned by virtue of feedback and letters to the editor we have received.
Hotel owners have been told it’s up to the individual emergency first responder where he or she stays while taking courses at New Mexico Tech’s EMRTC.
That’s fine. I’m all for everybody making their own decisions.
But in this tough climate, shouldn’t the two most powerful people in Socorro – Tech president Daniel Lopez and mayor Ravi Bhasker – step in?
The majority of the emergency first responders that come to Socorro stay in the Holiday Inn Express and Best Western, which also happen to be owned by the mayor. All Socorro hotel owners pay the same taxes and franchise fees. Isn’t it the responsibility of the mayor to make sure that everybody shares the wealth?
What if Lopez and Bhasker set a rotation system so everybody gets a share of the pie? In today’s climate, that seems fair.
Term Limits?
I realize that in America anyone can run for office. The goal and hope that voters have however, is that there is a solid qualified group of men and women to choose from after filing day. I believe that everyone running in this municipal election are good people, but I don’t believe that many of them should have filed “yet again”, judging from their past history of consistently garnering less than 200 votes and much less than that each and every time they’ve run, and run, and run and run.
I do believe that most people in Socorro just throw their arms up in the air and laugh, when in fact this is not supposed to be a laughing matter. All elections are a serious part of our lives, and those who perpetually run for office “just cause they can”, with the same results year after year are hurting the process and perhaps keeping other candidates who might just be great elected officials, out of the mix in local politics.
I think it’s time our city leaders work on some sort of qualification resolution for perspective Mayor and Councilor candidates in the future. It’s not taking away one’s right to have to qualify to be a councilor or the mayor, it’s simply setting a standard for those who would be elected to those positions.
I also think it’s time for everyone in Socorro to have the opportunity to vote in referendum on term limits for the Mayor and Council positions. As we’ve all witnessed in past months and years, the problem (even in Washington) of elected officials being in their position for too long can be very dangerous and actually turn new young prospective candidates away from the process of running for office and bringing new blood and ideas into the realm of politics.
Elected officials who have been in office for decades are greedy and dismissive of the thought that someone else just might have a new and better idea for the future of Socorro. This problem of elected officials being in office in Socorro for much too long is caused by the complacency of the voters in Socorro. Voters need to speak their minds at meetings and in the media about this very important issue.
If you want new blood and different thought that will help Socorro grow in wonderful new directions, open your mouth and vote your conscience each and every time the elections roll around. This question of term limits should have been put up for referendum long ago by the City of Socorro and should be put to the people in the next city election. Officials are elected to serve for a time and move on, not move in.
OPINION: Supreme Court: Dismantling Democracy In Black Robes
By Don Wiltshire
For the last few weeks, some of us have had out attention focused on the horrors taking place in Haiti. Help has arrived, sometimes not soon enough, sometimes just not enough. Now folks have started talking about “helping” to rebuild Haiti and into whose image it should be rebuilt.
While all of this was taking place, the nine US Supreme Court Justices slipped into their black robes and got up-to-no-good. It started out innocently enough: the Supreme Court was asked to rule on the case Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. Citizens United had produced an anti-Hillary Clinton documentary: Hillary, the Woman (which I have not seen yet). The FEC was seeking restrictions on such campaign advertising through the McCain-Feingold Act. The President of Citizens United, David Bossie, it turns out, is the same guy who spent all that time trying to impeach President Bill Clinton.
Now, I have absolutely NO background in Law, and reading the decision left me needing
a shower, kind of like reading the explanation for line 37 on your Federal Tax Form. If you’re still game, all 183 pages of it can be found at www.supremecourtus.gov/opinions/09pdf/08-205.pdf.
The conservative majority’s 5-4 ruling overturned more than100 years of legal precedent for restrictions on corporate funding of political candidates. Leading the way was Chief Justice John Roberts with Justices Samuel Alito (both President George W. Bush appointees), Clarence Thomas (appointed by President George H. Bush), Antonin Scalia and Anthony Kennedy (both appointed by President Reagan).
This decision was arrived at through the misguided idea (or perhaps the more lucrative idea) that corporations are “real persons,” entitled to the First Amendment rights of Free Speech. “Free Speech” in this case meaning “campaign contributions.”
The “Dissent” or “Minority Report” (which Tom Cruise has taught us to always pay special attention to) was written by Justice John Paul Stevens (appointed by President Ford). The other three “centrist justices” (there are no liberals on this court) are Justices Ruth Ginsburg, Steven Breyer (both appointed by President Clinton) and Sonia Sotomayor (appointed by President Obama). The dissent starts on page 88 of your pdf format. Even with all of the footnotes, section number references and “wherases” it’s pretty scary reading. The preliminary discussion must have been quite a spectacle, considering the political and family allegiances. I wonder if coffee and grapes were served.
President Obama summed it up fairly well when he said: "With all due deference to separation of powers, last week the Supreme Court reversed a century of law that, I believe, will open the floodgates for special interests, including foreign corporations, to spend without limit in our elections.”
"I don't think American elections should be bankrolled by America's most powerful interests or, worse, by foreign entities. They should be decided by the American people. And I urge Democrats and Republicans to pass a bill that helps correct some of these problems."
Well, it just so happens that such a bill has been languishing in the House and Senate, S.752 and H.R.1826. They are called The Fair Election Now Act. They provide for public financing of congressional campaigns. MoveOn.org is urging us to contact Representative Harry Teague at (202) 225-2365 and ask him to help pass this bill.
And, as chance would have it, Dan Armijo, the local “ears” for Harry Teague, will be at the Magdalena Public Library on Feb. 10 from 8:00 a.m. till 2p.m. Come, express your concern over this issue, Health Care Reform, our local “water-grab” issue, the economy, unemployment, in-creased cattle taxes or any other thing that’s bothering you. It’s time to take back our country from those who want only to extract more “taxes” from us in the form of “purchase prices.”
Like Thomas Jefferson said in a letter to Tom Logan, Nov. 12, 1816:
“I hope we shall . . . crush in [its] birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws of our country.”

OPINION: Is This The ‘Rainy Day’ That New Mexico Has Been Saving For?
By Doug May
There is no doubt that the State’s budget shortfall of nearly $600 million is a big, big problem. I am sure that our legislators might even say that is an understatement. They have been wrestling with it for weeks.
So it not surprising that someone would suggest that the State’s “rainy-day” funds, that is the Land Grant Permanent Fund and the Severance Tax Permanent Fund, could come to the rescue. Money would not be taken out of these funds, but Senator Majority Leader Michael Sanchez, (D-Belen) proposes that they would be used as collateral for the issuing of $500 million in bonds.
Assuming that this might be legal, future budgets would then have to include repayments with interest. This would add to the problem and pass it on.
If we don’t reduce our budget spending now we will hand to future legislators an even bigger problem. All indicators are that there will be sizable federal taxes, putting even greater strain on our economy in the future. Now is the time to cut spending and reduce the size of state government.
The Governor has suggested a “temporary” increase in the gross receipts tax. We pay this tax every time we buy something and when we receive a service. Yes, that adds to our cost of health care. This would further burden business in New Mexico even more. What we need is a “temporary” decrease in the number of state employees. We do not have to fill all the vacancies when they come up. We need to challenge the assumption that this bloated budget problem constitutes a “rainy-day” situation. Haiti is suffering a “rainy-day” situation.
That earthquake was not the result of anything they had done. There was no way they could have avoided it. It is a real emergency. Our situation here is man-made. And it can be solved by tightening our belt and going without some things for a while.
Maybe the RailRunner could be put on the side track for ten years. By then the population growth might make it more feasible. After all we are not on the main line between Washington and Boston. There are some things that contributed to our financial problems that we in New Mexico did not cause.
But we did impose punitive regulations on gas and oil drilling that caused these companies and jobs to go out of state. We lost jobs and reduced our tax revenues. If we impose emission caps on our power plants and automobiles we will further burden our economy.
Green power is more costly and we will all pay for it in increased utility bills and taxes. When the state gives an incentive for someone to put solar panels on their house all the tax payers pay for that. We all hope that some day the cost will come down, but it is not here yet. The New Mexico Solar Energy Association reports the cost of “Photovoltaics (home solar electricity): 19-25 cents/kwh - twice to three time the cost of grid power.” At this time we cannot afford the luxury of subsidizing green power. It is taking too much green out of our pockets. The time is coming when green power will be more affordable.
The governor needs to get serious about the problem. He offers to consolidate agencies to save $6.79 million and spends many times that on the motion picture industry. The best “rainy-day” solution is to tighten our belts, reduce spending and eliminate gross receipts taxes on medical care and service businesses. Don’t touch our “rainy-day” funds.

OPINION: SCOTUS Decision Pours Fuel on Fire
By Dave Wheelock
For weeks the prospect hung over the land, like a shadow on an x-ray. We knew it was coming, or at least some of us did, yet when the Supreme Court of the United States went far out of its way on Jan. 21 to strike down limits on corporate spending in elections, a shock wave went through the nation. The Court’s 5-4 decision in Citizens United versus Federal Election Commission has brought forth a torrent of news stories and accompanying opinions from every quarter, alternately praising the ruling as a watershed upholding of free speech or condemning it as another step in an historical march toward absolute corporate rule. Following the latest legal battle pitting real people against vast accumulations of money, citizens once again find themselves on the defensive in an undeclared war to define themselves as the sole selectors of their government.
By ruling unconstitutional previous legal precedents banning unlimited political spending straight from corporate (or on a far smaller scale, union) treasuries the court's five-member majority has revealed its blatantly activist nature. Nominated for the Chief Justice position in 2005 by George W. Bush, John Roberts assured Congress during his confirmation hearing he would not be an "activist" jurist: "I do think that it is a jolt to the legal system when you overrule a precedent. Precedent plays an important role in promoting stability and evenhandedness." Yet in Citizens United versus FEC, a case originally argued on the narrow question of whether a standing law (McCain-Feingold) limiting corporate-funded "electioneering communications" should be applied to a movie critical of Hillary Clinton, Roberts and his clique on the Court chose to attack the very constitutionality of any such legal restrictions.
In light of Citizens United, the highest court in the country, formerly understood as being controlled by the votes of a narrow conservative majority, must now be seen as radically in favor of property over people. By allowing the amounts of money only major corporations can throw into elections to that already funneled by political action committees, election messages contrary to a corporate agenda will become undetectable.
The usual suspects comprise the chorus of apologists for the Court's action - the Republican Party, the Wall Street Journal, the American Enterprise Institute, a raft of media “experts” - and of course, all large corporations. In truly remarkable fashion, after decades of assault on subversive college professors, public funding for indecent art, and taxpayer-funded commie broadcasting, the various components of the right have simultaneously been born again into the light of the First Amendment. It’s nothing short of anti-American, the gymnasts of logic proclaim, to deny these people (meaning corporations) the right to express themselves as they choose. Other collaborators imply, a little more money in the process won’t do any harm. Right.
It was left to the dissenting justices, including Justices John Paul Stevens and the Court’s newest member, Sonia Sotomayor, to get to the fundamental principle. Their objection to the monumental boon to corporate power embodied in the majority opinion seemingly represented the only shred of common sense to creep into chambers. Opined Sotomayor: “there could be an argument made that that was the Court's error to start with, not Austin or McConnell (earlier limits on corporate influence), but the fact that the Court imbued a creature of State law with human characteristics.” Stevens, writing in the dissenting opinion: “they (corporations) are not themselves members of 'We the People' by whom and for whom our Constitution was established."
The key issue in Citizens United versus FEC is indeed corporate personhood, the legal fiction that endows these “creatures of State law” with constitutional rights. This moment offers a rare chance to right a fundamental wrong in our society, if we are willing to seize it. The website MoveToAmend.org represents a coalition of citizens and groups, like ReclaimDemocracy.org, of people determined to take action by amending the Constitution to bring corporations to heel in their rightful function as limited tools for human use:
SECTION 1. The U.S. Constitution protects only the rights of living human beings.
SECTION 2. Corporations and other institutions granted the privilege to exist shall be subordinate to any and all laws enacted by citizens and their elected governments.
SECTION 3. Corporations and other for-profit institutions are prohibited from attempting to influence the outcome of elections, legislation or government policy through the use of aggregate resources or by rewarding or repaying employees or directors to exert such influence.
This is a dialog only real people should have the right to engage in. Ironically the stiffest test to taking back our government will come in resisting the existing power of corporations to marginalize, discredit, and intimidate those who carry the message. Yet as the destructive influence of corporate power is laid bare in the faltering health of our people, an economy too indebted to succeed, continual wars for empire, and a planet growing too hot to survive, we cannot afford not to try.

LETTER: ‘Socialistic?’
I read with frustration a recent letter describing federal health care legislation as “socialistic.” Que lastima, forgive him Lord, for he knows naught what he speaks.
Socialism, per se, has existed in the U.S. since before 1776, with formation of the colonial state militias. Before 1800, Alexander Hamilton is credited with initiating the Federal Reserve banking system, which now protects our savings when banks fail. Both are socialistic.
Folks, the following are a few examples of existing socialism we cannot do without: electric co-op, garbage pick-up, sewage and water systems, public schools, police, health inspections, post office, military, unemployment compensation, Social Security, Medicare, more and more.
FYI, “capitalism” is trickle down economics, Republican right wing, business first; whereas “socialism” is trickle up economics, Democrat left wing, people first.
Please ignore the political kaka de toro and always [know] what’s best for the disadvantaged because after all little children need food, clothing, shelter, love and medical care don’t they?
In closing let me add this: our United States of America is the only western industrialized nation of the world without universal health insurance for all its citizens.
WWJD?
