FUTURE OF Los ANGELES THE

Unique Position Occupied by the

Tourist Travel Assured.
Slogan Is "Boosp

Julius r. Black, of the real estate
firm of Black Bros, has voiced the
sentiments of the Los Angeles Realty
Board and loyal citizens generally in
the following open address on business
and realty conditions:
LOS Angeles must expect to be
hammered, and that In most unmer-
ciful manner, by every community In
the United States that begrudges 1t
its enormous tourist patronage and the
cOrreSpondngly enormous invest
ments which are made by wealthy
travellers in our city-in most instances
by men who eventually make this their
permanent residence. 1t Is a condi-
ton of affairs which might exist with
regard to almost any city in the United
States that enjoyed the unique dis
tinctlon that belongs to Los Angeles
of being the Mecca of the wealth. est
class of American tourists. II should
therefore be no surprise to us that
throughout the United States, and
particularly at points like Denver,
Seattle, Portland and elsewhere, in
terested parties have been prone to
misrepresent the condition Of affairs
which existed here at the time OF the
destruction of San Francisco. How
ever, 1t must be borne in mind that the
great American public Of today is
most decidedly "show me" public.
Certain types of newspapers have been
so given to exaggeration that the
mind instictively discounts what the
eye perceives in the columns Of such
dailies.
Increased Tourist Travel
"Los Angeles has not suffered and
will not suffer from these false re-
ports. Los Angeles citizens returning
from points in the extreme east bring
the welcome information that the pros
poets for tourist travel to Los Angeles
next year are greater than ever be-
fore. We do not desire to profit by
San Franciscos great calamity. We
do not need that S an impulse to make
us grow-we have that here about
us which would make US grow II there
We're dozen cities like San Francisco
to compete with us, for we have some
thing which they never will have and
never can have, and that is the ex-
traordinary asset of climate. Distort

MANUAL TRAINING THEY HAVE MET
Petition Asking for County As SeSSor'S Removal to Be
 Taken Up.
LOWELL PETION
 FOR INCORPORATION.
Not Enough Signers to Petition, M Supervisors Will Audit Bills of ConSta5IeS and Justices of Peace of CoChiSe.

Detained in Bisbee because of the city campaign, Chairman J. J. Bow en, of the Board of Supervisors was unable to be in Tombstone last night at the session which began at 7:30 o'clock. Earlier in the day he tele phoned to Supervisors c. A. Taylor and William Riggs to proceed with out him. He leaves for Tombstone this morning.
 Among several other things to be taken up by the board at this session is that of a petition asking for the removal of County Assessor B. J O'Reilly. This petition was circulat- ed and presented by Steve Miller or the ground that O'Reiily has assessed property too high in the vicinity of St. David.
 Miller and several of his neiSlbors allege that O'Reilly made a deliberate effort to get them on the tax roll at a figure much higher than in other parts of the county. Miller's peti- tion has been hanging fire for some time. and will probably be disposed of presently.
 Lowell incorporation is another problem that the board may take up Petitions and amended petitions have been in the hands of Clerk Howe for several weeks. Those favoring Low elfs becoming an incorporated city will have representatives present tC look after their interests.
 Clerk Howe recently made an eX- animation of the incorporation peti. tion with reference to its being a le- gal one, finding that out of something like eighty-five property owners, who resided within the proposed city limits, but thirty-five of them have affixed their signatures to the petition. The law says that two-thirds must sign, and the prospects for Lowell being in. corporated are small.
 The Douglas school bond matte which has been hanging fire for sever al months, will be disposed of. Techni- calitfes found in the papers have beer rectified, and the board will order the bonds sold. It means that Douglas can now carry out plans made for some time for the erection of several new school buildings.
 Several road districts are now with out overseers, and petitions have beer turned in by those who want to fill the places. Several appointments are expected at the hands of the Super yisoTs. A number of tax matters and petitions for rebates on taxes and changes in assessments will also be attended to.
 The fee bills of the various consta bles and justices of the peace will have to be gone over. This will take considerable time, as most of them are lengthy. and the charges amount to a large figure. In almost every pre- cinct there has been a decided in crease in the amount of the business transacted.
 The board will probably be in ses sion the greater part of ten days tC two weeks.

BISBEElTES LOCATE
 GAO ACRES OF OIL LAND.
BELIEVE THAT IT WILL BE FOUND WHERE WELL IS TO
 BE BORED IN GRAHAM.

Though they went to take baths and drink mineral water, George H. Neale, Harry Henninger, Emil Marks, A. Newman and Peter Johnson, who re- turned yesterday after an absence of about two weeks, spent part of their time locating oil lands near Jhe In dian Springs in Graham county.
 Near the springs a Beaumont out. fit is about ready to start drilling, their plan being to begin dropping their drill inside of ten days. They have been delayed getting their equip ment on the ground by high water in the Gila river.
 Members of the returning party state that they will organize com pany in this city for the purpose of raising funds 10 begin development work They are all confident, judging from the surface indications that oil will be found. They located full section of $40 acres.

COLE WAS IN FINAL
Visited the Raymert Mine on Tourof 1nSpeC-
 ton. ....-
PREDICTS GREAT FUTURE
 FOR ARIZONA COPPERS.

Thomas F. Cole, who with party of capitalists and copper mine operators, passed drought the city Saturday el. route to Pinal county, returned to Phoenix yesterday at noon and spent the afternoon here, leaving last night for the South, says the Republican. NIT. Cole and MT. TTomas Carson, of Washington. will go to Los Angeles; Dr. N. P. Hulst and George D. Van Dyke will return to Milwaukee, and James Hoatson will return to Bisbee. Prior 10 coming to Phoenix the party had spent some time at Globe and al Bisbee. in both of which camps they hold valuable interests. Their visit to Pinal county was made for the pur' pose of visiting the Raymert mine in which MT. Hulst and MT. Van Dyke have for many years held an interest Mir. Hulst first visited Arizona IT 1881, becoming interested at that time in Ravmert district His trip at this time with the other members or tho party he characterized as merely one of inspection, but it is rUmored that the visit of the gentlemen means much more than such a statement would in- dicate.
 Mir. Cole, the most prominent oper ator. in copper in the United States today, when seen last evening freely discussed the copper market and its future. IL is his opinion that the price of copper will go higher if there is any change in the market. The entire east said MT. Cole, ''is look ing for copper mines developed or un- developed and such a situation can not help but work wonders in the pre- sress of Arizona. The lack of cop per will make the market. While Ari- zona will not likely overtake Montana in her entire output, l predict that 1t will not be many years until the ter ritcry equals that state. As you know, this territory stands second, and each year shows an increase far out of comparison with other states of the United States"
 In reply to a question regarding what properties in the territory he with his associates will take over as a result of the visit they have just made, he would not discuss.

Mrs. Buxton Raises S180 Dur ing First Days Work
 Among Merchants,
LADIES CONFIDENT
 OF RAISING S1 ,000.
Part of Equipment Ordered, Which Will Be Placed in the Basement of Central Build ing-LadieS We'll Pleased,

In raising s1S0 in a few hours yes terday, which is part of $l,0O0 that the ladies of the Woman's Club are asking 10 equip manual training in the local schools, Mrs. George Buxton gave the work the ladies have set out to do an excellent start. putting all of them in high spirits last night.
 Mrs. Buxton saw but a small num- Der of the merchants and professional men, all of them willingly signing for good amounts. She will continue her canvass today, and expects to run her total up considerably over S2OO.
 T found our people most heartily in accord with the work we are trying to do along the manufacturing line, said Mrs. Buxton last night. T believe that we will be able to raise s1,O00 as we hope. I want 10 thank the Bis bee people for the assistance they have already given us.'
 On the strength of Mrs. BGxton-s success yesterday, the Woman's Club has already placed an order for seven benches. five of the smaller sets of tcols and five larger and more expen- sive sets. These will not arrive
  and the full order for equipment made
 By an arrangement made, all of the money raised by the ladies is to be used for equipment, the county paying the expense of a taecher, who will be an expert in the manufacturing line, and fully competent to instruct the children. The basement of the Central school building will be used for the manual department.
 Manual training has been found an excellent means of educating the chil- dren both in mind and hands, espe- cially in tb:s Territory in the Prescott schools. The ladies here are working along the lines followed by the ladies in Prescott.
 Thursday, Mrs. Harvey M. Shields and Mrs. Gerald sherman will have charge Of the subscription. Tomor- row it will be in the hands of Mrs. Nolan and Mrs. Morrison. The ladies believe that by the end of this week they will have raised the amount several who have been seen promis' ing that they will subscribe.
