money can do the work and it is only
matter of very short time when
the line will be built and trains operat

The forepart of the present week
Nogales was visited by Hon. H. H.
Hoffman, of Cincinnati, Ohio, presi-
dent of the Democratic copper mines
at Cananea, which are wonderfully
rich producers of the red metal. Mr..
Hoffman, who was on his way to
Cananea, is we'll known In Nogales,
and during his visit here met many
old friends who were greatly pleased
to see him looking so hale and hearty.
Mr.. Hoffman and the late Colonel
Roy, were great friends during the
grand old gentleman's life. Mr.. Hoff-
man will spend a month or more at
his property, where big compressors
have recently been installed.
Lieutenant Henry O. Flipper and
party of surveyors are busy surveying
a town site and 5000 pertenencias of
copper ground at the recent new cop

copper belt. brought to the city. GER
tainly look good. We wish the new
camp well and hope it will out-rival
the great Cananea. Certainly Colonel
Greene, for whom Lieutenant Flipper
is working, means business, and it is
only matter of a very short time
when another big comp will be estab
lished within a very short distance of
Nogales.
