COPPER MINES ARE NOW
MAKING BETTER SHOWING THAN EVER
FROM PRODUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT

have taken 1t upon themselves TO ad-
dress pertinent letters to the manage
ment Of the Greene Cananea. askiIA
foolish questions, citing articles from
tae Boston News Bureau. and thus
trying to set up case to make it
appear that they have been robbed
To all this the company's representa-
tive gives courteonus replies, saying
they are paying no attention to ru-
mors of the News Bureau, or Other
publications, and inviting the dis
grunued ones who listen 10 all the
fables OF the grouchy press TO start
their investigation in the courts as
they have been threatening to do and
for which purpose they are calling fol
funds from the Globe Consolidated
shareholders.
Iron Ore has frequently stated that
the old Creme Consolidated sharehol-
ders have many reasons to feel CRATE
full that the transfer of their properly
took place at the time it did, as other
erwise it would have been bankrupt.
In the transaction the old company
was extremely lucky to bring to its
aid sucA men as it then secured. The
new force has accomplished wonders
in changing the old mines and the
/ old plants of machinery, smelters ana
everything in and about the Cananea
camp. All who have visited il, ana
who are familiar with former condI-
| lions, are loud in their praises of what
: has been done Mr.. S. W. C1awson,
who has had to do with mines anu
smeIteTs for many years, recently

night for the east, after spending two
days at the Green Cananea camp,
where he went on mining business
He left for New York and Other
points last night, where he vii ,be TO-
the next few weeks
When seen at the depot last night
Mr.. Clawson expressed himself great
| ly pleased at what he had seen a
Cananea, and expressed his belief that
the camp was making splendid strides
4 in general improvements.
/ Il was surprised to see what had
been done at Cananea since DR.. RicE
etts has been there" said Mr.. Claw
son. with the improvement which
has been installed, there is no doubt
that copper will be urned out at {
1 greatly reduced cost. There is ever!
evidence of the camp getting back IN
to its former status, when it will be-
one of the great producers of the soutl
west.
Il made the rounds of tie smelteF
and saw what had bene done there
and found one of the most modern
land down to-date smelters in the
country. 1t is quite remarkable wha
has been done In 50 short a life. anC

DIR. Ricketts, is a very busy man

completing everything which is re
quired to make Cananea camp all tn
