wRiGnTsoN DISTRICT IS ALL RIGHT.
So Says Board of Trade in Resolutions
 Censurins Tucson Paper.

The most interesting subject dis
 cussed at the meeting of the Board of
 Directors of the Nogales and Santa
 Cruz County Board of Trade Tuesday
 night was the "knockine" of the
 Wrightson mining district in this
 county by the Miner and Stockman, a
 Tucson publica tion. Members of the
 Board of Trade who are personally
 acquainted with the Wrightson dis
 trict gave sufficient information to
 the Board to show that the Miner and
 Stockman made many statements that
 were untrue in the articles referred to,
 that there are many promising pro-
 spects in t..e district. They asserted
 that there is considerable development
 work going on in the district and that
 thousands of dollars have been spent on properties there by men who have personal knowledge of the outlook kno wledge upon whiUh they base their convictions that the WrightsoR dis trict will some day have a number of rich, producing mines.
 The outcome of the discussion was the authorizing of tine president of the Board to name a committee of three to draw up resolutions in regard to the statements of the Miner and Stockman. President Titcomb named Messrs. H. M. Chapman, w. H. Bar nett and Patt R. Sullivan. The re- solutions as first presented by the committee were ordered changed by the Board, by the striking out of passages which the Board considered irrelevant to the subject under dis cussi .n and after being changed were again submitted to the Board by Messrs. Chapman and Barnett. On the second presentation they were adopted, reading follows:
