ALLY REVIEW, SATURDAY M like the increase in property yalua- tion in this city"
 Some years ago" continued Mir Ketlner. " driver in my employ To- cated the Inspiration mine. He was indebted to me s6O. and he tried his level best to have me advance him $40 more and take the mine. re- fused, and the property today is al- most priceless, away up in the mil lions. was also offered the old Do mirion mine upon a like debt prop,- sition for $500. I again couldn't see my way to. take it. Look at 1t today. It is so everywhere in this 1eighbor. hood. took s140.000 from Globe sey. eral years ago and invested large Iy in the Salt Riveg valley. For years it was profitable, then came the drouth and my losses in that section were terrific. sold several thousand acres there and got what considered a big price, but today it could not be bought for four times that price. never made a dollar in speculation; what I made was in legitimate mer- cantile business, but the sums of money made in mines and real estate In Globe is simply phehoanenal- l confess I cannot keep in touch with 1t. am not competent to judge as to when it will stop. but I look for Globe to be another Denver. Arizona is moving forward with marvellous rapfdity. Its future cannot be esti- mated by its wonderful past.
 q came to Globe when I had to haul my freight HOO miles, and that through a country that was peopled with Apaches. No railroads or set dement's of any consequences, sol diers guarded the mountain passes and water holes. A trusty rifle and a strong faith in God was all the pro tection our people had in these stormy years of the past. but Mir. Re porter, you cannot stop or stay the onward march of the Anglo Saxon. This sturdy race has planted ciyili- zation's banner an every continent in the world They know no such a work as fail, and crossing the seas of North America was their last stand This race came to Arizona and New Mexico, and while the Apache, that fierce denizen of the desert, that Ishmaelite of the plain and hill, barred their pathway for a time, but the inevitable occurred. The Indian was driven from his haunts and where all was desolatinn and despair are now green fields and a contented people. Geronimo rides on his raids no more, and the rem nants of his band are now sleeping in a strange land far from the. scenes of their early marauding and Arizona once barren and desolate. is now the nations hand-maiden of posperity knocking at the door of the nation for admission to the union. Mir: Re porter, it is dificuet for us old fellows to realize all these things we see to day. We are used to the trial and the pack horse, but the whirl and turmoil of these, busy mining cities, with i'm posing business blocks, automobiles and other evidence of metropolitan airs, almost makes a fellow think thant he is awakening from long sleep. Globe, Phoenix, Tucson, Bis bee, and Douglas all first class up to-date cities. Tucson was the only one of those cities on the map in those days. Yet I like to watcf them grow. .love to see the mar vicious progress made by Globe and Gila county during the past five years, and while I don't own mucf real estate in this city I feel that i Is my child. As I was here at its birth, hope to be here when the cen
 sus marshal returns a population o 50,OOO people for this Denver of Ari
