GLOBE GRABS FOR
 MINING CONGRESS
Good Thing fiji Could be Brought to
 the Fair.

The American mining Association con gress is to meet in Fl PasO, November 1S to IS, and there is every reason to believe the meeting will be largely at tended. This particular session is of more than usual interest sto Arizona, for two reasons. First, because Ari- zona mines are more than ever be- fore developed to a point where there is something tangible to see and talk about, with thousands of promising properties discovered and lying idle awaiting development; and secondly, because the convention is nearer to Arizona than ever before, and the at tention of those in attendance can be more easily directed this way.
 Globe has recognized this fact, and is taking steps to reap all possible ben eft. A committee has been appointed to go to Fl Paso and, if possible, se- cure a delegation of these mining men for a visit to the Globe district It is proposed to get a hundred of them, if it can be done. and bring them in pri- vate cars to Globe at the expense of the town, for the sole purpose of impress ing upon these influential men, many of whom are engineers, whose dictates are followed by capital, the magnitude of the ore deposits in that immediate vicinity; not only those that are al- ready being worked by large compau- les, but those that are still available for investment
 In this enterprise there is surely no one who will not wish the Globe people the greatest success. Arizona. wants all her districts developed and any big mine in any county is bound to help the whole territory in some meas ure. But the purpose of this article is to call attention to another project that might very we'll follow the Globe excursion. Why not bring the mining men to Phoenix and the fair, after having looked over the Globe and any other southern and eastern Arizona districts they might desire to. If the conress adjOurns on the 18th it will be just a little too early for the fair. but Tor those who have the time to spare the intervening two weeks or more can-be well utilized in Globe and south ern Arizona.
 The mining department of the fair IS to be made an important feature. and if the mine owners of the territory respond, as they are expected to. there will be a good mineral display here housed in a brick building erected for no other purpose At the conclusion of the Globe trip there will be many, no AOuDts WHOSe convenience would be to return home via. Phoenix, rather than to retrace their steps to Fl Paso. Many or the delegtes will have to hurry away to other things, but there are others who will have more or less bus mess in Arizona, and still others who will have a lot of business here. if they take the trouble to come and look around. Many will naturally desire to Nlslt the Bisbee and Tombstone dis tricts, and if they give the three sec tons named a thorough looking over 1t will take all the time up to fair time. The intervening time may be too great to permit of Phoenix arranging a regular excursion party, or doing as Globe proposes to do, but there. might be a special railroad rate secured for the delegates as an inducement and ! anyhow, it would not be a bad idea to | have the delegates officially invited by the fair association, and have the in Vltat1on made as public as possible in the convention hall.
