He visited many of the principal cities and, upon his re- turn, he scored the conditions and de. clarcd that joint statehood was the only remedy. The Indiana senator visited the saloons, which are open all night and every day in the week, and where gambling and other forms of vice are permitted.
 Regardless of this, however, there io scarcely any trouble. Fights are also scarce. The best of order prevails There arc fewer arrests made thcrt than in Indiana. The people there are against Bcveridge,

From Thursday's Da,Iy.

From the number of mining properties being from time totimc acquired by the Development Company of North Amer ica, in the Slate Creek section of the liassayampa district, and from the movements of corps of engineers now in the field, surveying n route for a narrow gauge railroad lino connecting these parts with the Poland terminus of the Bradshaw Mountain railroad, through the Poland tunnel, it is no pro. sumption 10 state that within the nex, Few months this locality will have an. other active mining camp conducted on the business principles for which the management of this company is so well noted.

 The railroad will start from the com. pnny's mines at Superior, and passing through twenty.eight miles of as vslu- able mineral lands as arc to hc found in the territory, have it's terminus at the shelter in Florence. It is figured by the management that the line, while ludng increased value to its mining claims, iy reason of decreased cost of production because of the saving in freight rates, will nlso be n paying prop psition, commercially, on account of the rich mining country it will open up.
 The Lake Superior people are down Gj0 feet and are drifting along an eight foot copper ledge. Heretofore the ledge has produced rich values, but is getting richer with depth, and the ore body 's growing stronger. Al present the superintendent estimates that he has enough ore blocked out to keep the smcl,cr that is building busy for years
 In addition to the copper. T gold vein has been developed from seven to eight feet in width that is showing excellcn, values.
 Some idea of the value of the Lake Superior and Arizona holdings may Dc had from the fact that thirty ton ship ments of orc to the Fl Paso smelter have been netting the company s2,20t to $2,40O in profits, and with the com plction of the railroad and smelteI these claims will develop into vcrit able bonanza.
 The company is controlled by Michi gan parties, practical copper men. ant proof of their unlimited confidence ir the Florence district is found in tho fact that they are picking up all th' property in that vicinity that is on thu market and are prepared to spend an, amount of money in its development.
 Mir. Weedcn says that activity in th' district is not confined to this one com pany, but is general throughout th' county. and he looks for the next fcv years to show wonderful advancement in the mining industry of the section.

ARIZONA LEADS IN PRODUCTION
 or COPPER.

The great prosperity or Ariz0na, which is manifest on every side, is due to the fact that her group of mines. combined with those of tho Cananea group, produces more wealth than any other single mining group on the world.
 The product of the mines of the great southwest is all sold in world markets for cash. This means n steady influx of ready money. Money is always plen. tiful in n mining town. It doesn't ex' actly grow on trees, but the next thing to it, it springs up out of the ground when men strike the rock with pick and drill. IL is clean money too. No oppression. no advantage taken of the weak and incapable, in order to pile up wealth from honest mining. It is clean money, for it comes from taking out of the ground and turning into useful form, material that without the work of the miner is as useless as the salt in the sea.
 It is mining that gives our railroads something to run on. Mining builds up cities. and vast industries. Food and other supplies arc needed for the peo' | pie. and the industries need fuel and timber and structural material. With draw the business due to mining and the railroad business in the great south west would be paralyzcd.
 So with the merchant: the miner keeps him up.
 So with the factories; they are built 10 supply the demands of the mi-rs.
 So with the farmers: the home de mand Is the hnsis of their profit, and tho home demand k created, directly or 10 directly, by miners.
 lt may surprise some people to lcarr that the region comprising sou,horI Arizona and northern Sonora IS th' richest copper region in the world, an' the most productive.
 Of separate states, Montana lead- then Arizona. But adding Cananea Moctczuma and other Sonora mines, II the same belt. to inc Arizona grouI makes the district rank first, with
 long and increasing lead over all ih world.
 Copper is to the great southwe' what iron and coal are to Pittsburl
 Hence every business man K interes
