The directors of the Clifton Gold
and Copper company held a meeting
at the company's office this week, at
which 4 considerable amount of bust
ness was transacted. Louis Ferber.
who promoted the company
was unable to place a sufficient
amount of stock for the proper de-
velopment of the property, which
was due to the present unfavorable
condition of copper. After consid-
cradle deliberation Baylor Shannon,
president: Henry Hill, vice-presi-
dent; A. S. Rosecrans, director;
handed in their designations as direc
tors of the company. The expenses
of the company up to the present
date have been met principally by
individual capital and the company
may disincOrporate until copper
stocks are in better demand. The
company has several promising pros
poets, but at the present time it is
quite impossible to float any kind of
a copper proposition. Work is still
going on in a small way on the copper
shaft of the Oregon claim and a nice
body of native copper was encoun-
tered the first part of this week. 1t
is quite a good sized bunch and no
doubt enough can be taken out to
realize some money.

ACTIVITY IN CARLISLE DISTRICT.


Fred Perry, who is operating in the
Carlisle district in conjunction with
H. c. E. Spence, was in Clifton last
week on business connected with the
firm. Just at the present time eight
ore wagons are engaged in hauling
ore to the railroad station at Duncan
and the mines are looking exceed
ingly well. Perry & Spence are
operating lease and it is reported
they have good chance to do some
thing. Six new wagons have just
arrived which will be put on at once,
making a total of fourteen. The
ore is being shipped to the Shannon
and Douglas smelters and carries ex-
cellent gold and silver values. They
have just installed a hoist, which is
now in running order, and the gallows
frame is completed. This will enable
them to handle ore more rapidly at
greatly reduced cost. 1t now seems
that the Carlisle country is off and
there will be no stopping to it. Perry
& Spence haqe about nine cars of
ore standing on the track ready for
the Shannon smelter.

rapidly to prove up the extent of the
new strike. The company start
ed operations the first of this year.
since which time they have added
machinery, put up bunk houses, an
assay Office, besides doing a consider
able amount of development work
Local people have purchased the
stock freely and if the recent strike
turns out anything like is expected,
they will all have sufficient reason to
be glad that they invested. The
editor of the ERA has not yet seen
the manager of the company, but
an effort will be made to obtain more
facts about the strike, which will be
published in the next issue. That
particular section is well known for
IFS gold values and the ERA is of the
opinion that the New York-Arizona
company strike will be the cause of
much excitement in that district.

J. c. Gatti, who is conducting d
meat market in Globe, visited Clifton
this week on business. He reports
that Globe has suffered to some ex-

troubles, but thinks it is still d pretty

companies have cut off operations
considerably, but he is of the opinion
that it is only temporary. He is do
ing a nice business, due mostly to his
hustling qualities.

A minister in Cass county wrote to Washington in behalf of the residents of growing hamlet, asking that a postoffice be added to its institutions. and he was asked to suggest name that would be acceptable to his neigh bors.
