It is said that the A. & P. company will use every endeavor to make Kingman the great town of Mohave county.-Courier.
 It is said! By whom ? Only by those interested in booming King
 man, and they consist of a railroad contractor, railroad engineer and a capitalist. Thus far the railroad people have not committed them selves by any act or deed which would authorize the stateme nt made by the Courier, but whether they have or not would make no difference in the matter. for great towns aI:se where the business wants of large population need them, and arise il- dependent ofrailroad companies. In fact as a rule railroad companies gen orally meet with failure when they attempt to foist town on commu- nity where there is nothing to sup port one. One does not need to go further than Maricopa for an exam pie of this kind We do not wish to be understood as saying that there will never be town at Kingman On the contrary w9 think there will be one there, most aSsuredly, but it will be distinctly a railroad one, depending entirely upon the railroad employees and transient travel for it's support. Where the great town of this county will be de- bends entirely upon its mines and their future product, and We are in clined to believe from the fact that Mineral Park is in the centre of the great mining district of the county, that 1t will continue to hold its posi- tion as the leading town of the coun ty.
 Where the richest mines are. there the most business and people will be in spite of the efforts of any railroad company.
