BOOST ALWAYS
 FOR B|SBEHAND
 THE DISTRICT
This City Has Meathered the Financial Depression Better Than Any Other Place In the Country.

The watch word for Bisbee is Boost, not that we particularly need boost ing. but because every man inter
 ested in the district should natural ly be a booster. The conditions here should cause every man to feel thar he owes a boost to BiSbee and Wal ren. In many other parts of the country business has been at stand still, for several months, factories have been closed, railroads have sis- pended operations, hundreds of faii- ures have been recorded, and many mining companies have closed down entirely; while with Bisbee. very lit tie if any reduction has been made in the working forces d the mines This district has naturally felt the effects of the money panic, par ticularly in the decline of copper stocks. but our people are good los CTS, and have ceased Ito calculate
 their losses or what they failed to make, and are looking forward 10 the future greatness of the Warren dis trict. and the immense possibtliues it holds for those who will realize that the country is still doing business at the old stand, and that copper VIII be mined and used in ever increasing quantities. long after they are dead and buried. There is every reason why we should all boost for Bisnee and Warren. Bakeryille. Jiggeryille, and the Johnson Addition; wnlae other camps were closed down our pay roll was still working: while business was stagnated in other parts o{ the country. the Warren company were turning loose thousands of dollars in Al 1ft of o Efr tem; while Wall street was tearing it's hair, Bisbee was installing an up-to- date sewer system and building bridges and boulevards and the min ing companies were spending hun dreds of thousands in construction and development work. There has never been a time in the history Of this district when the future looked more promising or when there was more building being done or con templated, than at present. The lun- her yards are unable to fill orders and state that they will be unable to do so until new shipments are received | The increase in building activity is due to a great extent to the advent of the Cochise Building and Loan Asso- 1 citation. recently organized institu- ton embracing among it's members some of the most prominent business men of the district; the following of ficers and directors being chosen for the first year: Geo. E. Buxton, presi- dent; J. E. Curry. yicepresident; M J. Cunningham. secreary and treasnr- CT; L. c. Siattuck. c. Caven. A T. Sowle. Jacob Schmidt. c. W. Moon, c. H. Holtz, directors.
 This association now has ample funds to loan on long terms at a very low rate of interest, for tle purpose of building homes, with the addition al advantage that the loans can be re- paid in small monthly payments. If a restoration Of confidence has ever been necessary. this in itself should be sufficient to silence the croaker. his money will be loaned to members of the association for building and many will take advantage of this means of securing a home A well conducted building and loan association means much to the growth and prosperity of any community, and our local organi- zation, being free From every thing of a speculative nature and conining its investments strictly to this district, has some exceptional features that should appeal to the investor as well as to the borrower Contracts aggre
 gating s25 900 were let this month, through this association, giving eTn- ployment to at least twenty-five car penters and half as many plumbers. paper hangers and painters. Every new home means additional business in all lines and a more prosperous community, and this district is to be conratulated on having such an or ganizatfon start at time when non ey is still hard to secure through other channels. The majority of building is being done at present at Warren, be tween now and June first, 29 new houses will be under way, and we have been informed by the secretary of tSe Cochise Building and Loan As sociation that several applications are now in for next month.
 At Warren, W. G. Mcbride has just finished two four-room houses with all modern conyeniences-baths, cleo tricity. etc. R. E. Simpson, B. F. San born. Arnold Schmidt, c. E.,Lynn, J. Hart. Chas. Sauelberg, J. ". Mcintosh, c. B. Plumb, c. E. May, o. M. SaHld' Oak H. Roads, all have nice up-to- date houses started
 In Bisbee we have a record ot the houses under construction. Ihefs would have been a great deal or pullo' ing up the canyon. only for the faet that the electric CT Bns. has been un- abIe to build on account d the subwsT v to be reinforced. The Warren people have a part Of the material now on inc ground ready to build as Soon e,. the subway is cleared up- There are over thousand nice large building lots m the canyon belonging to tnt city. If surveyed and with the car line running up the canyon. It IS probable that the city would soon have their ground laid of in lots ot large size and selling at $25.0esso $5ooO per lot. would raise enough from, said sales to more than pay for the forty foot road and their part of the sub way. With the car line up the canyon will mean at least 800 houses to go up and 5000 more people living up the canyon, which win make business Tor Bisbee-wiiI mean the Court House for Bisbee All business property will advance double: every body VII gainer, it's up to the property bod CTS to get busy fl they want values 70 increase.
