 Over TOGO men are on the payrolls af Courtland today, and the building 1f the city has barely begun. These 1000 men are drawing on an average of S5 Q day. considering mechanics, miners and the smaller paid railroad --angs together.
 Within Q radius of six miles from C,ourtIand are Southern Pacific and Esl Paso and Southwestern railroad amps. employing at least roo moro men at remuneratiye wages, So at a conservative estimate it may bC stat I'd that CourtlaBd at the present time $ the center Of 8 district with pay roll of Ssg ,Oo0 2 week. or S1t0l0OO a month.
 Tn the mines at the present time -.re employed $50 men. This state neDt includes only the Great West srn, Calumet and Arizona. Copper oueen and LeadviIle properties. There are other big mining prospects in the district, some with tho richest Of sIIr- race indicatiuns and promising in oN-
 ent, but as yet they arc only puCs- 9acts On 9 number Of these outlying properties many men are employed in development work. The mines arc not confined tc copper, but silver and lead promise to play a big part in the de -eiopment of the new camp.
 At the CerIUaaia shaft of tho Caiu- net and A-iEcun seventy-fiYe men are lruployed Al present S006 tons of ore arc piled upon the Gcrmania fiump. This ere is the product CT de -elopUcnt wCFl. alone.
 At the 8iary shaft cf tEC Great western. where SCyunty-Lyc men arc 1nployeo. tloO tons of ore are on the lump This. too. Is merely the pro duct of development work. In fact. al he shafts Of all the four big proper les of Che camp, work thus far has reeu confined to development. Al the dump of Che Humboldt shaft ol the treat Weste-n are piled TOGO tons Of TTp
 The Copper Queen has Q splendid showing Of sulFhidc orc at it's Casey shaft, and 1C0O tons Of ore arc piled 7u the dump ready for shipment. The Leadviue people have 5000 tons Of suIphides On their dump. and the Cal Imet and Arizona have 5000 tons tiled oR the Maid of Sunshine dump.
 So in- all 2t 800 tons of ore are piled Ipon tie dumps of the four great companies in the CourIand district This with only $50 miners employed. what is really revealed in the shafts of the four properties can easily be guessed by Che tremendous amount of -aiIrOad work being done in and auJa- -eut to the new camp.
 At a conservative estimate zoo men are at present working in the various constructive departments 1l Ne city vroper. From early morning until lark the air is filled with the sound 1f the Hammer saw and plane. Yet he building of the city has barely ecmne1Ced. Scores Of men and teams are employed iu the grading of the Great Western t0Wnsite and build tnEs are sprinEing up like magic. Two cement brick and block companies nave already been formed and part of
 plant has already arrived for Che lne which has opened for business Ipon the NcFste COUrJauj tCWnsite. This rauF is owned by the Court.and Brick and Block Manufacturing COm- 1any. and before tine end of the pres snt week tt will have the full plant Installed and ready for delivery. The good feeun- between tle Great Western and the McFate people is manifested by the agency of the 7ourtland Brick cUmuauv being pIac d with the Southwestern Mercantile company. Che big concern on the Great Western ground. in which Man aser J. +. Talbot of the Great West sru and Calumet and Arizona com pauies is heavily interested All in ffCations point to a heavy business by both concrete concerns which have incorporated fer business
