THE BENSON ROAD
The Reascn Why One Denizen Would

A gentleman who came in from Benson yesterday morning. spoke of the sentiment along the san Pedro regarding the proposed Phoenix 6 Eastern railroad. The miners and the big cattle men anXioUsly await its coming. There is smaller number of less important citizens who are apa- thetic. and a still smaller number cf still less important natives would rather have no railroad at all.
 Here is one argument against it: A man who was travelling through the country stopped at the house oi 6 man who had lived tl--c from the earliest times. and in all the yesrG had made no improvement il h. fin ~ncial con dition. while mo.

Last Payment on Property Made.
 Shelter in Operation by April l.

Wednesday George c. Gill, president or the Holyoke National bank of Hol- yoke. Mass. and one of the directors or the Shannon Copper company. was in the city CT route to Clifton to look at the company's properties again. says the Lnrdsburg Liberal. MT. Gill says the shannon company has anticipated it's last payment on the shannon mine which payment was not due until next January, has paid MT. Shannon in full and has a clear deed to the mine He says that the recent offer of bonds made by the company was over-sub- scribed in twsnty-two days. and that all the bends were taken by the stock holders of the company with the excep- tio nof one.
 Of this property the Boston Financial News says:
 Mir. Shannon, who has been a resi- dent of the Copper mountain mining district practically since the first dis coveries were made thirty years ago. believes that Arizona. will eventually cutrank all other copper producing cen ters. owing to the ability of the pro ducinE mines of that district to turn out copper cheaplv and the presence of great copper bearing lodes.
 "C0utTcl cf that portion of the Shan non property owned Tor years by him. self was turned over to the present company in the fall Of 1899, and since then the mine. which altogether com prises forty claims. has been extensive ly developed and is now within sixty days Of going upon a producing basis.
 ''The sneltcr plant is expected to be in operation by April l. Practically all Of the machinery is now or the ground and. barring unforeseen delays. the plant should be turning out black cop per by the date indica ted.
 "Tha plart at the start will treat on an average 3j0 tons os ore daily with both furnaces going. and the product for the current calendar year should be about SC0O,0 eco pounds of refined copper. Later. when the converter and concen- trators are added. q tonnage of 700 tons daily will be treated. which should bring the product up to 20,0G0,OG0 pounds pre- annUm. Eventually the smelter facilities will be augmented and the product correspondingiy increased" ."

 The San Pedro valley is worth the while of tine merchants Of Phoenix and the Salt River valley to think about That valley is the third largest body of land in the territory capable oC being brought under irriSa ton. It Is not very wide. but it is of cousidera ble length. By the San Pedro valley is not meant merely the narrow strip or farming land lying along the river. but the great cattle ranges on the ad- jacent nesas and mountains. one of the greatest cattle regions in the ter ritory. The nearest railroad and trad ing poin.a are Benson and Tucson. Tho latter. where the greater part of the business of the people on the San Pedro is done. is sixty miles away. All the cattle along the lower San Pedro. from about Mammoth are driven there for shipment. When the railroad is built all that region rich in cattle. as Ticultural production and with great mineral resources compafa lively un- developed will be tributary to Phoenix.
