FANNIE MINING co.
Its Organ ization and Some Facts Re
 gardiDg the Property.

ganized in Prescott none can more favorably impress the investor or the public critic than the Bannie Gold Mining and Milling company. Many things are necessary to make a mining enterprise successful and many details have to be worked out. All, however, are dependent on the securing of suffi- cient capital to operate, and getting the capital depends only on two things: first, the owning of a good property, and secondly and equally as important honest and reliable management. It is the universal verdict of all who have taken the trouble to investigate that in both these requirements the Bannie enterprise is unquestionable.
 The directorate of the company is as follows: Nj. F. Taft. president; Col. J. F. Wilson, vice president and at | torney; John E. Mccoy, treasurer; ! William J. Wilsey, secretary: J. J- Brooks, superintendent. President Taft is an uncle of Isaac T. Stoddard, secretary of Arizona, a New York min ing man of unquestioned standing and 1 a successful and conscientious oper- ator. He has a wide acquaintance and his reputation alone is a guaranty of the good faith of the company. Col. Wilson has served the territory in con- gress and is again an aspirant for the same office. The treasurer, John B. Mccoy, is a capitalist and sue
 cessful business man of both California
 and Arizona. He has large property i interests in southern California and is
 proprietor of the Wellington saloon in Prescott, one of the most popular re-
 sorts Of the mountain city and a prof l itable business enterprise The secre- ! tary is a competent business man and
 the superintendent of the property is
 J. J. Brooks, man who has spent | twenty-three years in mining and
 milling and whose practical knowledge
 of mines cannot be gainsaid.

 company and that it is pursuing its
 work on a clean-cut business basis

 the mine is on a paying basis. Only the miners and laborers are to receive
 pay and some of them are indicating | their faith in the enterprise by invest ing a portion of their monthly wage
 in the company's stock.
