INTERESTING LETTER
FROM MEXICO,
Getting Rich at a Rapid
Pace in Mining in
That Country.

The Calhoun Times prints letter
from Wade Shelor, who is now located
in the mining regions in Yaqui country
of the state of Sonora, Mexico, in which
he says:
Il left Tucson on the 9th of the pres
ent month to go with the Yaqui Copper
Company, just organized, and which is
destined to become the largest producer
OF copper in the world. There is only
one way nowadays for a fellow to get
rich quick, and that is through mining
in this country. Three years ago w.
Z. Green, president of the Cananea
Copper Company, Was not worth 81 900,
and now he is worth more than twenty
millions. His friends came in and
shared literally with hif in his wealth.
The president of this company was
practicing lawyer at Nogales. not worth
500, according to his own statement,
when he acquired this claim, and now
he is worth many millions and is des-
tined to be the copper king of the West.
His assistant general manager, young
fellow about my age, year ago Twas
working in Denver for S65 month :;
now he is worth over one hundred
thousand dollars, to say nothing of the
liberal salary he gets. His business is
to spend all he can. | was quite for
tunate in securing the position and get
liberal salary and all expenses. True,
we are one hundred miles from any
where, in the foothills of the Sierra
Madre mountains, more than 5000 feet
above the sea level. could walk one
hundred yards and step off the cliff and
fall 5000 feet without stopping, that is
without striking.
The Yaqui river flows along on the
north side of the mountain and winds
around what looks like hills to US, but
when down there look like great big
mountains themselves. There are only
about eight Americans in camp, but we
have plenty of good things to eat, it is
not cold and we get along pretty we'll.
There are great many deer all around
US, and occasionally some OF the boys
bring in one. All are young men and
full of life.
We travelled three days from La Col
orado, two by stsge and one day by
horseback About two O'Clock of the
third day we crossed the Yaqui river
and it took us until 10 O'Clock that
night to reach the top of the mountain.
The mountain is about 600 feet high
| and almost straight up and it took a
ten mile climb to land us at the top.
We would wind around first one side
ard then the other, the horses climb
ing every step of the way up. When
wanted to look ahead it was always
straight up and vice versa, straight
down. and one wrong step on the part
OF any horse meant to be precipitated
more than thousand feet below into a
yawning canyon. To the south we can
see to within few miles Of the coast
with our glasses and in all directions
can see close to one hundred miles.
The climate is the finest ! nave ever
even read OF and the temperature the
year round is about 70 degrees. 1t is
never hot in summer nor cold in winter.
The air is the balmiest I have ever
bieathed anywhere"

CONTROL U. S. STEEL.
Rockefeller, Gould and Hill, with
Others

Pittsburg.-The Post prints a story
to the effect that combination form
ed by John d. Rockefeller. George
Gould, j. ]. Hill and other capitalists
has practically secured control of the
United States Steel corporation; that
the acquiring of the New York Cen
trail and its feeders by the Rockefel-
ler-Gould interests is in furtherance
of a plan to secure control of all rail-
roads from the west to the seaboard,
including the Baltimore & Ohio and
eventually the Pennsylvania.
The scheme, 1t is claimed, is plain
business proposition, in which the syn
dictate has undertaken to secure con-
troll of the greatest tonnage producer
in the world-the United States Steel
corporation-and provide means for
its transportation as we'll as for the
immense tonnage made possible by the
advent of the Wabash into the Pitts
burg coal and coke production district.

English Coal in Demand

The American demand for English
coal is again in evidence, and many
large vessels are being loaded and
started Tor our country as rapidly
as possible. The demand for the ce.-
ebrated Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is
also largely increased, because more
people are learning of its wonderful
curative powers in cases of stomach,
liver, kidney and bowel disorders, ana
having tried one bottle they have been
convinced Of its value and won't ac-
cept anything else in its place. This
will be your experience, too, if you
will only give it a trial. 1t will build
up the run down system in the spring,
overcome that tired, depressing feel
ing, purify the blood and cure loss of
