Now that we are on the upward move, Clifton business and mining men should organize board of trade and cooperate in promoting the best interests of this district. This pur- pose can be accomplished better by organization than any other way. All of the leading cities and mining camps Of the territory have their local boosting clubs and why should Clifton hang back and take the leay' ings, when really we are entitled to the cream. A bureau of advertising and boosting will bring more new peo' pie in this district than anything else. We don't have to hang back on the ground that we have nothing good to offer the mining investor as the district is full of good proposi' tions that require but one thing capital.
The copper era., 1908-11-19

IT HAS been said by many experts that the ore bodies do not extend to depth in the Clifton-Morenci district. But we are glad to say that these predictions have proven to be mis- takes. The Arizona Copper company has demonstrated in several instances that the ore bodies are as good or better at depth than they were on the surface. This is fact, as that company has been working its mines long enough to have them worked out if the ore was confined to the sur face alone. The latest development in the Shannon mine has proven the fact that even larger ore bodies exist at depth than on the surface, and that company today has more than twice as much ore in reserve as it had a few years ago. The same thing might be said of the Detroit Copper company, which concern has been operating successfully the past fifteen CT twenty years.

ARIZONA has again been assured of single statehood since the election of Ralph Cameron as delegate to con- gress, which certainly sounds good not only to the republicans, but democrats as well. Every citizen of the territory should rejoice over our prospects of becoming a state. With statehood Arizona is going to be one of the most important states in the union, and we are going to witness one of the biggest booms in the history of any new state. Ari- zona has the goods in more ways than one. We have the timber lands and the mineral. Arizona raises the best fruit in the United States. Our cat tlemen have been among the most prosperous of any country, and our mines have advanced ahead of them all. All of this has been done while Arizona has been handicapped as a territory. Therefore, why should we not expect wonders when we become a state? Truly the citizens of the territory now have every reason to feel proud of Arizona.

THE next year is going to be one of prosperity for Clifton. We have passed the flood period and have nothing to fear for many years to come, or at least we hope that there will be nothing to set the camp back. It has now been almost two years since the camp has been visited by floods and even if more do come they will have to be higher than before, as we have been protected against them and the buildings generally speaking are above the high water mark. There are no more shacks along the water line and the new buildings will stand the water. Cliff ton has had her troubles and should forge to the front. The companies are gradually improving their plants and erecting new and substantial buildings, and within the next six months chances are exceedingly good for the erection of several new build ings which will be a credit to the town
The copper era., 1908-11-19

THE best consolation that this min ing district has is that the boom has not struck us yet. We have been drifting along for the past twenty-five years and producing our share of cop per without making any fuss about it. From the production of mere handful of copper we have assumed the position where we are now produc- ing 6,OOO,0OO pounds monthly Tn round numbers. Just think of it; an enormous amount of copper like that every month and still you don't hear any fuss about it. The camp has grown in>such steady manner that people who have resided here all the time hardly realize what we are doing. Each year witnesses an increase in output and when the district is really developed there is no telling where we will stop.
The copper era., 1908-11-19

THE price of copper is on the up- ward move and it will not be surpris- ing if it does not reach the fifteen or sixteen cent mark shortly after the first of the year. At the present date it Is lowering around II! to II 3 1, which is not so bad after all. Old time residents of the Clifton Morenci district well remember the day when 13-cent copper looked good to the companies operating in this district, although in those days fuel was not so expensive as at the present date. The big companies of this district are known all over the United States for the economical manner Tn which they manufacture copper. It is d fact, however, that the large ore bodies of this district are of low grade, but it is also a fact that they do not have to operate expensive pump ing machinery as in many of the other camps where higher grade of ore is found. Even in the mines where much depth has been gained very little water has been encountered, and with but few exceptions there is no water troubles at all. To the investor who has capital no copper mining district Tn the world offers better opportunities than are obtain able in this district. There has al ways been an impression among out side people who do not understand conditions that the three large con- panies of this district own all of the good mines and prospects in this dis triCt. This Is certainly misunder- standing, as there are many mining claims owned by individuals, which with development no doubt will prove to be just as good as some of the heaviest producers. Another advant- age of this district is the fact that investors can obtain better mining property for less money than any, where in the United States. The Clifton Morenci district has been a heavy producer of copper for many years and with the same amount of capital and boosters Bisbee and Globe would not be able to hold candle to us. We are not at all jealous of our neighbors and hope that they will continue to prosper, but we do believe that within the next five years this district is going to come to the front in such a manner that our sister camps will have 10 sit up and take notice.

gold mill, after which the company will be on easy street. Current re- port1 are to the effect that capital wifi be forthcoming and operations resumed in the near future.
 The New York-Arizona company has continued to operate with the same forces during the panic as well as good times and recently placed large amount of treasury stock with local and eastern people.
 The Home Copper company also owns number of valuable gold claims on which much development work has been done in a small way.
 Since the election the Copper Queen company at Douglas has added l50 more men to its shelter forces. This was good thing for a number of idle men who were floating around that place.
 The Shannon Copper company for the month of October produced l,64+ 900 pounds of copper, being in line with it's usual monthly average and about double what was produced in the same month two years ago. For the past ten months the Shannon company has produced 15,O56, ,OO0 pounds of copper against II l,92S, ,00O pounds for the corresponding period of last year. These figures clearly demonstrate the excellent record of the company, which is due wholly to progressive management. A perusal Of the record of the Shannon during the past four years reveals wonders that were never dreamed of, and a continuation of advancement the next four years will most likely find the Shannon producing as much as any company in this district.
 Assessment work is the order of the past few weeks and by the first of the year all of it should be done. To the claim holder it is of much inn portance that he does the required amount of assessment work and not drop into the plan of doing the work as cheap as possible. Mining pros poets in the Clifton Morenci district never were more valuable than at the present date. Therefore, those who own claims should be paI tiCular in doing their assessment work in order to keep the title to their claims perfectly clear. Even those who put up the money to have the work done should see to it that parties doing the work do not slight their job, and for that reason such work should only be placed in the hands of reliable agents or overseers, even if they dc ask higher price. The ERA hopes that all parties holding claims in this district will Go the proper amount oi assessment work, thereby giving the Jumpers" no chance to get in his hooks.

Walkers Weekly Copper Letter.

Walkers Weekly Copper Letter.
 Copper is stronger and higher. Lake is selling at IF to 145 cents, and electrolytic at H. to 144 cents per pound. Sales as high as 155 cents are reported. Tre buying demand of the past two weeks has absorbed all the floating supply of metal, and a considerable anount has been sold for future delivery. Two or three of the leading producers have retired from the market temporarily, be- lieving that they will be able to sell copper for l5 cents or higher in Jlnuarys Predictions of an advance to IS cents are heard in the trade: but the more conservative element among producers has been selling copper at the prices quoted for both November and December delivery. Domestic and foreign consumers, and some spectators. have participated in the recent buying.
 The only element of danger is found in the copper held by specu- lators, as it may come on the market again at lower prices in the event of break. Speculative holdings, how ever, are not particularly large, as a portion of the copper bought by these interests d few months ago has been liquidated. Referring to con sumers, one leading copper interest says: 'They are buying like a flock of sheep. Some of them are en- gazing more copper than they have any immediate use for, and specu- latOrs in the metal are always more eager to buy on an advance just as those do who operate in the stock market. think copper high enough and do not expect it to sell much higher than l5 cents next year."
 Copper consumers are greatly pleased and encouraged by the busi- ness outlook. They have received many new orders since election, and think they can see where the demand is coming from to keep them busy at steadily advancing prices for a long time to come. They say that the electrical equipment of steam rail- roads has fairly begun now, that so much has been done already that it will continue, and that there will be use for all the copper that can possibly-be produced for great many years Io come.
 It is said on good authority that the St. Paul railroad company has con- tracted with the new power company at Great Falls, Montana, for 25,OOC horsepower for a period of twenty-five years, and will equip it's western ex- tension over the mountains with electricity. This is expected to make that line especially popular with tourists. If so, the other great trunk lines will have to follow the | lead of St. Paul. That the Penn. | sylvania, New York Central and New Haven systems are equipping with electricity as rapidly as possible is we'll known, and many other railroad companies are taking steps in the same direction. From a long range viewpoint, therefore, the outlook fol the metal market is very much more | hopeful than it has been at any time since the bad break of last year.

New People Interested in Stevens Copper
 Company Property.

| Frank Miller, a prominent capitalist and business man of Bridgeport, Conn. :, accompanied by his wife, arrived in Clifton last week and spent few days here on business connected with the Stevens Copper company, whose group of 40 valuable mining claims lie in the Clifton Morenci mining dis trict, about 3 miles above Metcalf. I. N. and Chas. Stevens are hea willy interested in the property of this company, among which are some of the best copper claims in this district. MT. Miller has just recently acquired heavy interest iu the Stevens Com pauy and came here to arrange for the assessment work on the property for the present year. Before leaving all arrangements were successfully made and Mr. Miller announced that a considerable portion of the com pany had just passed into new hands and that active operations would soon be commenced. Among the forty clans owned by the company are several which have produced a con siderable amount of copper ore. They are situated in the neighbOrhoo' of the Mammoth mine, owned by the Arizona Copper company and which has been worked and produced sev- eral fortunes in high grade copper ore during the past 10 or 15 years By those familiar with the claims owned by the Stevens company it is predicted that they will become i'm portant producers upon the expendi- ture of capital in development work. Among the old stockholders interested in the company are such responsible men of Bridgeport, Conn.,, as EX- Mayor Thomas P. Taylor, Senator Archibald McNen, Fred Enos, and Park Commissioner Henry Setzer. The ERA has been informed that the company will now be supplied with ample working capital and prospects, are good for the Stevens company to forge to the front during the next year..
 w. C. Lilies and Jesse Simms, who spent about ten days in the mouu- tains southeast of Clifton on a deer hunt, returned home Saturday last.

He will pay liberal reward 10 the party finding the gun and returning it to him.
 The Shannon gun club held q prac- tice shoot last Sunday afternoon in which nearly all of those who took part made excellent records. Sev- eral of the boys more than doubled their former scores and within the next few weeks will be making top records.

rage. The house was decorated cx-
qhsltely in ferns and fall flowers,
the predomlnatln" ones being white
chrysanthcmums and yellow dahlias.
Mrs. II. M. Kennedy played mendels-
sohn's ever beautiful wedding march

best man, Mr.. A. L. Mills, also from
Greenvillc. DR.. d. G. Phillips, the
pastor OF the bride, in few imprcs-
sive words performed the marriage
ceremony which made the two hearts
one.
The brides dress was of white
satin made empire fashion and Was
very handsome. She carried il bou
quet Of lilies Of the valley. The brides
maids wore dresses Of white crepe de
chine and carried carnations.
After very hearty congratulations
iad been expressed to the happy cou-
pie the guests and bridal party were
anvited into the dining room, where
elegant supper was served The
ccorations here were in keeping
Sith those Of the parlor and the halls,
Elnk roses being used in great pro-
fusion. Many handsome and costly
presents were given this popular
couple, but these only i'm small way

tlon III which they are each held
in the hearts Of their friends.
Mrs. and Mrs. Cely left on the 8 |
O'Clock train for New York and 9TH
