President of Shannon Visits Clifton.

N. L. Amster, the progressive presi- dent of the Shannon Copper company spent Monday last in Clifton on im- portant business connected with the company, departing Tuesday morning in company with General Manager Bennie for Globe, where they went on business pertaining to the interests of the Arizona Commercial copper company. MT. Amster is interested in several mining companies in the territory, but he is more enthusiastic over the future of the Shannon than any of them. Since his administra- tion the Shannon has rapidly advanced in the way of improvement and pro- duction and if indications count for anything he will make even a greater showing within the next few years.
 One of the great enterprises being launched by the company is the con- struction of the new Shannon-Arizona railroad, details of which are now about completed and construction of which will be commenced within the next IGW W6GhS. MI. AmSCST SldL6Q that the company is now about ready to advertise for bids for the grading and tunnel work and that the road will be pushed to completion.
 In addition to the new railroad the Shannon owns controlling interest in the Clifton Northern and San Francisco River railroads, connecting the smelter with the new Shannon lime rock quarry up the Frisco river, and the Weaver and Greenlee groups ot mines, on which the company has options and is pushing development work. In fact the Shannon is reach ing out continually for new mining properties, and if the present gait is continued it will soon be equipped with as much mining area as the other big companies of. this district. At the great Shannon mines in the Metcalf country there is larger number of men employed at the pre- sent date than for some time past and ore supply is considerably increased.

Some Good Ball Practice.

There being no game scheduled for last Sunday, the Clifton team took advantage of the open date to work in some much needed practice and incidentally try-out the new men. Two teams were selected and under the leadership of Riley and Dunn played regular nine-inning game, in which Dunn's team was victorious by score of 1O-8.
 While the game did not amount to much from a spectators point of view, It resulted in giving the boys some excellent field and batting prac- tice. Sullivan, newcomer, pitched the first four innings for Riley's team and seemed to have good control without exerting himself. His work behind the bat was also fair. Gan non, the all-round man, did good work behind the bat and in the box.
 Rigby, the other new man, was tried at second and played a speedy game. His work in the box the last two innings was cratic. Parsons pitched the full nine innings for Dunn's team, and with the exception of a little wildness, was there with the goods.
 With seven pitchers on the staff Clifton ought to be safe in that de. partment for future games. Current report has it that Mason will be un- able to play again and Quilling's injury will put him on the bench Both are good players and will be greatly missed&e
 The big thing will take place OF the Clifton grounds next Sunday af ternoon. when Morenci crosses bats with Clifton. It is reported that Mo renci has something up her sleeve, which she may need before the game is played out. Just how Clifton will line up has not been determined, but there will probably be several | changes,

The citizens of Clifton are still waiting for the call of the primary election for the nomination of candi- dates for mayor and aldermen. It is now about time for the supervisors to meet again and the delay is causing the people a great deal ot uneasineSs. There is no reason why the board of supervisors or district attorney should postpone the calling of the election any longer. It is understood that the matter was placed in the hands of the district attorney, who has had ample time to make up his mind how the election should be called. The delay has already caused coDsidera ble talk on the part of those who are in- terested. At the gait we have been going the "town of Clifton'' will be ready for business by the first of the year.

OUR esteemed contemporary, the Duncan Arizona, is commencing to predict the political complexion of the new county of Greenlee in 1910. Brother Vaughn should realize that during the past few years it has been considerably mixed up in this end of the county, and now that we are to settle our own battles in the future the voters are likely to elect the best material that seeks office. The old plan of clean slate on either side in county affairs is fast losing the sup port of the people. For this reason it is difficult for anyone to predict the result next year.
