Arizona republican., 1909-02-14

W1ckenburg to work and they are working. The first day they turned out 1000 and they expect to have them all made and commence laying the walls this month. Now this sounds mighty good. but then that is not all. Mir. Burke has employed w. w. Cain of Denver, Colo, to take charge of the construction. MT Cain was his fore man when he built the Burke in Pres colt, and he knows his business. MT. Cain is now in Los Angeles buying the lumber and other material for the con- struction of the hotel and he will ship it to Bouse in car loads. This mate rial will begin arriving by the first of March and MT. Burke expects to have his hotel running by the first of May at the very outside.
 The hotel in itself vii! be one of the finest of the smaller hotels of Arizona or of the southwest. It will be strictly modern in every respect. It will con tain thirty sleeping rooms, fifteen of which will have private bath rooms at tached. The building will be 100 feet frontage and 15O feet back It will be set in the middle of the block and will have shade trees and palm gardens clear around the building. There will be a patio in the middle of the build
 ing and the rooms will open out on the patio. The inside rooms will open onto the patio and for this reason there will be no inside rooms in the hotel. The patio will be 16 feet wide and SO feet long and will be filled with palms and flowers He will drill a well and have his own water works and light plant. It is MT. Burkes intention to leave nothing undone to have a really first class hotel in every respect.
 This hotel will be one of the fine advertising features for Bouse. as there is nothing which makes a man form such a good opinion of city as first class hotel accommodations Bouse now has many people who come in who are accustomed to this kind of a hotel and as soon as the building is ready for occupancy it will be filled all the time. It is expected that many prominent mining men from all parts of the country will bring their families to Bouse and live so they can be close to their mining properties.
 Big Freight Contracts.
 V CT business in a way which means sue cess right off the reel Geo. Mitchell has recently been at Swansea and has given orders to have everything start ed off full force Everything now is being rushed. The one principal draw back is the lack of freighting teams. but these are being gathered tOsether just as fast as possible. and Mitchell stated day or two ago that he want ed to have at least three hundred teams hauling freight between Rouse and Swansea within two weeks and that he would have work enough to keep them all busy from now until the railroad is built, which may be some time, although he states that it will not be for longer than six months or a year at the very outside. He states positively that if the Santa Fe does not get move on them and get to building the road from Bouse to Swansea right away that he will build it himself
 Right now there are several car loads of lumber stacked up at Bouse awaiting teams to haul it to Swansea, and within another week there will be many more car loads. In addition to this there will be car loads of other material besides lumber. There are many car loads of smelter material yet to come. In addition to this there will be coke to haul pretty soon, because MT Mitchell states that the shelter will be running within three months if he can get teams enough to get the material to Swansea
 What this all means to BOuse is easily figured Think of 300 teams coming into Bouse every day or every other day, loading and moving out again. It means a great impetus to business of all kinds. Nothing makes a town look so full of business as a great number of freight wagons load ing and moving to and fro with their loads. The days will be full of busi- ness and the nights full of music. The 1 travelling musicians are now drifing to Bouse and within a short time the | streets will be filled with them.
 Arizona-Bouse Ready.
 The Arizona Rouse Copper company | is now ready for business and within l a few days will have a large force of I men busily engaged in developing that | They will put a number of men to work on the Little Butte at once and also men to work on other parts of their property. The Little | Butte will have the main shaft sunk | to water level, where the main ore l body will be found, if it is not found 1 before Drifts and cross-cuts will be i run from the fifty-foot level. The | will begin shipping ore at | once as all the matter taken from the | shaft is ore, and it is expected that | the ore shipments will more than pay | for the development work. This takes an exceedingly rich property, but the Little Butte will do it.
