Study of the Clifton, Arizona, Copper
District by the United States
Geological Survey.

A comprehensive report of the oc
currence Of copper in the vicinity of
Clifton, in southern Arizona, is being
prepared by Mr.. W. Lindgren, geolo-
gist of the United States Geological
Survey. The field work on which the
report is based was commenced early
in Novembe last. The mines near
Clifton produce at present approx.
mately 2,500 tons of copper month,
and the mining district ranks third
among the copper products Of the
territory, only United Verde and Bis.
bee exceeding it. The Geological Sur.
vey had previously prepared detailed
topographic map of the region, and
the geologic work begun in the autumn
was completed in the winter. Special
attention was given to study of the
mines, in which portion of work four
months we're spent. The results will
be of general interest, as the investiga.
ton largely dealt with the secondary
concentration so common in copper
deposits, and also with the char acter

here September 10th TO nominate

adopted which 1t is claimed will prac-

follows:
"Rcsolvcd. that only those shall be
recognized and permitted to participate
I'm the state and county conventions
and be present at meetings who are
duly qualified voters under the new

The effect of this will be to make the
