VERY APPREClATIVE
Their Confidence in the Reclamation
Work in This Valley is Gratifying
to Those in Charge of il.

Writing to the Salt River Valley
Water Users Association, an out-of-
town member, whose home is in Illi-
nois. SAYS:
Il noticed an advertisement of the
sale of the land of the parties who
have neglected to pay the assessment
of the Water Users Association. l re-
ceived notice of, l think, two assess
ments, which l paid. II there are any
others. / would be pleased to know 1t
and / will pay them, as | appreciate too
highly the benefits to be derived from
the association to allow mine 10 be-
come delinquent. My interest Is small,
yet 1 value it highly and hope the time
is not far distant that l can improve
my plot and enjoy the beauties and
prosperity of the valley. / have never
lost faith in the future since my first
visit there"
AS his letter indicates, he had
promptly paid all assessments as they
became due, yet wanted TO be sure
that he remained in good standing,
so he took no chances but applied to
headquarters for the information.

the program and give publicity to a

HUAIAPAI MINING co.
AND ITS OPERATIONS
A Little Review of the Activities in
the More Mining District Which is
Tributory to Phoenix.

There is one nice little feeder to
the commercial interests of this city
that only Il few people know the value
of and mention of it will he made here
i'm some detail. The purpose of the
story is first, TO give an object lesson
to the people Of this valley concerning
what they are overlooking in the de-
velopment of the home market. An
other purpose is to give little story
of the Hualapai copper mine, which is
itself interesting, for it is very val
liable property. one which little has
been printed about, and that which
has been printed, has generally been
wrong The object lesson is that for
the last three years the Hualapai Min
ing Company has been spending about
$4,000 a month among the business
men of Phoenix. 1t is one of the little
contributory causes of the valleys
prosperity during the recent years,
when a lot of other irritating things
that are now removed have been de-
tracing from that prosperity. The
moral of the object lesson is that
Phoenix never has taken enough inter-
est in mines, and that if she had, not
only the Hualapai, but probably doZ-
en- others, equally as valuable and even
nearer to the city, would now be con-
tributing as much as that company to
the prosperity of Phoenix business
men. There are no big mines operat-
ing on the fringe of this valley for the
simple reason that Phoenix has not
seriously interested herself in having
them operated, for there are plenty of
prospects and just as good ones as can
be found anywhere.
The Hualapai Mining Company is
strictly a Phoenix corporation. Its Of
ficers are II. Nv. Hamilton, president;
T. Connell. vice president; T. w.
Chamberlain. secretary and treasurer:
II. w. Hamilton, manager. The board
of directors is composed of these gen.
tlemen and Walter Bennett and Jerry
Millay. The policy of the company has
always been to attend to the develop
ment of the property and say moth
ing No publicity has been sought
though from time to time mention of it
has been made in the newspapers. In
view of the fact that the statements
made have been so universally incor-
rect, when Secretary Chamberlain was
approached yesterday he said the only
way he could see for the company to
defend itself against such gossip was
to give out something that was au-
thoritative. which he proceeded to do.
The cOmpany's holdings consist of
thirty-two claims which have been
surveyed and carefully marked with
permanent monuments and on which
the patents are now about to issue. all
preliminaries having been attended to.
The camp buildings are all of first
class construction. screen houses for the
men to sleep in, everything built
with the idea of permanently and con-
venience and there is nothing loose or
shoddy in connection with the COM
pany's operations.
The property is situated on More's

of by nonresident readers who have
their eyes on this country as a future
home. Primarily a newspaper must
serve its home constituency first, Civ
ing space to local grievances. and ex-
planning matters that are not clear at
first to local residents. For this rea-
son frequent mention was made pre-
Vious to July 1st, concerning the sale.
or prospective sale of lands delinquent
in their assessment by the Water
Users association. People not on the
ground might have conceived the idea
that sale was a bad sign. that things
were going to the bad, etc. On the
contrary the members affected were
few in number and as a finality the
sale affected a very small acreage and
amounted to only a few dollars. The
publicity given was for the reason that
it was desired that not even the few
should have a miscOnception of the
facts. or suffer by their negligence.
even though some non-residents who
had only a curious interest should re-
ceive wrong impressions.
But the non-residents who have IN
tereSts here, are almost without eX-
ception. doing their part in promoting
the storage project. when it is made
clear to them what should be done.
The above letter is but a sample Of
many that show their appreciation of
local affairs and it is a pleasure to
reproduce it as an object lesson to just
a little handful OF local people who
are either too small to grasp the full
meaning OF the situation, or who have
