Mill viii Soon
Be Under WaV

A crew of men and material for
the new Russell-Miller Milling
Co. mill is expected any day now.
It seems that the negotiations for
site have been completed. as
last week the Village Board passed
an ordinance condemning a part
Of the street on the north side be-
tween the N. P. right-of-way and a
block which they were negotiating
for from Harry Hunter. The
ordinance was passed at the request
of the Northern Pacific and the
mill company in the form of a
petition. The next step will be
the commencement of the construc-
tion work of the mill. Work on
the elevator part will no doubt be
commenced first, and this structure,
it is said, will have a capacity of
200, 900 bushels.

THE DIRECTORS
ARE ELECTED
Five Local Business Men on Board
Of Directors Of the New First
National Bank-.L
is Selected.

The organizers of the First Ma
tional Bank of Beach which is soon
to open for business held a meeting
Wednesday afternoon of this week
in the office of the Golden West
Investment Company and elected
their board of directors who will
have charge of the management
Of the bank. The board is COM
posed of seven directors and five
Of these are local men. The are
E. E.. Dickinson of the Dickinson
& Power Co., E. E. Mikkelson,
former vice president Of the Col.
den Valley State Bank, E. E. Noble,
former cashier of the same institu-
tion, Ed. Hoverson of the firm of
Overstad & Hoverson, and E. l..
Holvin Of the Golden West Invest
ment Co. The other two directors
are E. L. Amundson, cashier of the
Sterling State Bank of Sterling, N.
Dak., and E. j. Curtin, president
of the Citizens Saving Bank of De-
corah, Iowa.
After electing the directors other
business was taken up, the princi-
pal thing being the renting of the
SEM building which will be used
as banking house for the present.
This will make a fine location for
the new institution and when fine
set Of mahogany fixtures are in
stalled, which are now on the road,
it will make fine banking room.
A late model Manganese steel safe,
weighing $1,000 pounds has al
ready been ordered along with the
other supplies.
AS stated last week the bank is
capitalized at $25. 900 and will
have money to loan at all times,
when the security is sufficient.
Officers will be elected before
another week passes and the bank
will probably be opened for bus
mess in about a month.
Everyone knows the financial
standing Of the local men behind
the new institution, who alone
would make the bank a safe and
sound organization. With the aid
of the outside stockholders it makes
it one Of the strongest in the state.
This gives Beach three banks and
they are all controlled by men of
great financial responsibility.

mail, while l6 does the local work.
Going west Nos. and are the
fast trains and do not stop while
Nos. 3 and Is stop, being the
same class train as formerly and

The new machinery f)s tleet: :ca, power has been delivered at the p-9p- erty of the Cleopatra and Hull mines and will be in readiness by the time the power plant is reaj.7 to de- liver electricity, which is now planned for the first of May A new founda- tion is being built down the canyon about 200 feet this side of the E.ine. where the electrical plant will be placed. A force of men are now at work blasting out rock and building a stone fundation. Coke and coal have been delivered at the smelter; the water tanks are in place and are being connected to the water supply. Con siderable road building is being done and also the roads are being wIdened and leveled up.
 At the mine, work goes steadily on in the way of knocking down .'rs and development work has exposed snctf- CT good vein of rich copper ere which lies ust abve ledge No. ?, and IS no doubt a continuation. The ore shows up in a large body.
 The new Waul drills, manufactured in Denver. have been in use for Ioods ten days and are giving most excellent satisfaction. This drill does better and quicker work than any heretofore ns'j and since their installation by MT. Hull, the United Verde Copper Com pany has placed an order for num- Der of them.
 A force of men will be put to work at the Jerome Verde Copper Company next week, when the shaft will be sunk to the sulphide zone. This IS the old Verde Queen property, and the starting of work has been looked for. This will be of benefit to the district.

 Goes a Reverberatory

A reverberatory shelter, instead of concentrating plant, will be erected by the Magistral-Ameca Copper Com pany at the Magistral copper mines in the Ameea district of this state. It will have a daily capacity of 15O tons. The decision to erect shelter instead of a eOneentrator was reached because of the continued development of high grade ore. H. l.. Percy and James P. Harvey, respectively vice president and general manager of the company. who went to the States several weeks ago with the idea of securing concen- trating equipment, have just placed an order for a smelter in Denver.

CHA COUNTY MINES
Improvements and Developments or
 Various Properties

The Old Dominion is now pumping about 5,oO0, 900 gal. of water per day from its mines, which is nearly 100 per cent increase above normal. This is due to the increased flow from the unusual spring freshets.
 The Arizona Copper Co. is installing a station pump with capacity of 1,5OO, ,0O0 gal. per day. This pump weighs 50 tons.
 The National Mex. Co. is grading for a S-eompartment working shaft for the development of it's Iron Cap prop erty on the Free American claim, about 5000 feet northeast of the Iron Cap shaft.
 Development on the Lake Superior & Ariozna mine has been impeded by the heavy flow of water into the shaft. A bedrock dam recently constructed across the nearb ywash and the ee- menting of the creek below the dam has materially -lessened the flow. Ore was encountered on the 900-ft. drift, which has been penetrated about l5 feet. It is high-grade, silicious, snd returns good copper values.

 FLOW
Change Coal Fuel for Oil Pipeline to Be
 Built
CF=om Tuesdays Daily,

Late reports from the FumaroIe mine, situated in the Lone Star dis trict, Graham county, are to the effect that recent increase in the volume of water in the mine has caused the eoR- pany a great deal of trouble and extra expense, as its pump was not large enough to handle the inflow A new pump, sufficiently large to handle mueh more than the present volume of wat CT, has been installed and no further trouble is anticipated.
 It will not be long before a change will be made in the fuel used, and oil is to take the place of wood and coal, and for the handling of the oil pipe line is to be laid from the depot at Stafford across the river. A pump and engine will be installed at the depot and the oil pumped into the tanks on the north side of the river
 The town authorities at Stafford will be asked to grant a permit to the com pany for the laying of pipe through the town.
