Collector Mccord Visits Tucson.

Myron H. McCord is in town
from Nogales, resting bit, doing
some business and taking in
couple of ball games, as hot ones
as he ever witnessed unless he sent
his memory back to the old days
when he was newspaper editor and
the whole thing at Merrill, Wis,
and had to umpire all the scrub
games that turned up in that sec
tien-of the country, says the Tue
son Star.
McCord may have felt lost and
have been more or less lost for
time after he dropped into Arizona
in 1898, but he was not very long
ir finding himself. Along in 1895
Governor Hughes came up against
the naming of citizen member of
the board of control, and there
were some suggestions offered that
McCord would not be bad man
for the place, one such suggestion
finding it's way from Ohio, with
the name of William Mckinley
signed to it,.
The appointment was made, and
in course of time Governor Hughes
retired, and the executive head OF
the territory was Governor Myron
H. McCord. The then new gov
ernor was an advocate OF and be-

lever in reciprocity, so along came
the appointment of his old friend
Hughes as chancellor and regent of
the State university.
Colonel McCord took out a regi-
ment from this section of the world
during the Spanish American war,
but through no fault of his own or
the boys with him, did not get into
battle. He is at present and has
been for some time collector of
customs at Nogales, and looks as
if he might easily round out
century of life.
Colonel McCord says that No
gales is the sure enough busy town
of the territory, Grant Brothers be-
ing in full swing on their contract
of granding the Cananea- Nogales
branch of the Cananea, Yaqui
River e Pacific railroad. They
actually have on the ground 1000
men and 300 mules and horses,
work having been started two
miles south of town, where the new
line will join the Sonora railroad.
