GREAT WESTERN ID SHIP ORE
 ID EL:.PASO
Completion of Mexico And Colorado Road
 A Good Thing

DOUGLAS, Aug. g. - The Great
 Western Mining company, operating in the Courtland district, will begin
 the shipment of copper ore from two of their shafts in the Courtland dis triet just as soon as the Mexico and Colorado railroad can complete the tracks necessary to reach the ore dumps at the Mary and Humboldt shafts.
 Andy Scott, of this city, has been in COurtland for a number of days rushing the grade for the needed sidetraeks in order that the railroad company may accommodate the Great Western company at the earliest pos sible time.
 It was learned last night that the ore to be shipped first from Court land will go to the Fl Paso smelter and this is somewhat surprising to those who have all along expected that this ore would come to one of the smelters in this city for redue- tion. One explanation of the ore go- ing to Fl Paso is that the Fl Paso smelter is particular to secure the COurtland ores because of it's peculiar fitness for mixing with other ores now on hand. On this account it is said that Fl Paso bid more for the ore than the Copper Queen cared to pay, besides there was a disposition on the part of the local shelter to allow the Fl Paso smelter to take the Courtland ore which they need very badly.
 The ore to be shipped is some of the first taken out of the Courtland mine is said to be sufficiently high grade to return handsome profits af- ter paying the long freight haul.
 Nothing is known as to when the Calumet & Arizona will begin ship ment of ore from their properties in the COurtland district, but this com pany has plenty of ore on the dumps and could begin shipments at any time they should desire to do so.
 Since the completion of the Mex GO & Colorado railroad to CourtIand business has been all that was ex- Deeted and more. Many ears of freight have been hauled to the new district and now that ore shipments Ire to begin it is expected that the lew line will have a profitable busi- less.

Flying machines have been sug. gested as means by which snug gling might be carried on without fear of official interference, but men old in the revenue service declare they are not apprehensive of being given much trouble on that score. The machines caHbe too easily sighted to insure their fitting to and fro un- noticed. True, one might alight on a desert place, far from civilization. but he might as well have remained in a foreign country with his traps for all the good they would do him under such circumstances.

STORY OF JOHNNY DARE
 RECALLS EARLY DAYS

Arizonans, and especially those of
 the pioneer days, will be interested
 as well as delighted to learn that
 John T. Dare, the military mail car
 rier from Whipple to Albuquerque. in
 the early '70s, is still alive in San
 Francisco, and prominent in political
 circles. The San Francisco Chronicle
 of July 30, in speaking of the can
 didates chosen by the Citizens com
 mittee, says that John T. Dare was
 selected as the candidate for police
 judge of that party at the forth
 coming municipal election.
 Mir. Dare, when a young man. re- siding in Prescott, was an applicant for the position of mail rider from Fort Whipple to Albuquerque, and after a severe examination as to his physical capabilities, together with a test of his "nerves, was en- trusted to perform this hazardous of fcial work. At that time it was worth a mans life to venture out of the city limits of Prescott alone, without taking into consideration the trip over the Mogollons or the in- tervening country. But Johnny Dare, | as the old-timers knew him, remember | well the day when he was engaged | for his work, and as they brush away the many years that have pass ed since then, recall the boy on his spirited government mule, as he was seen to leave this old military post with the mail sack on the horn of ms saddle. Mir. Dare at that time vas not twenty years of age, and as pioneer said at that time, he was ust young enough not to know what ianger he was facing. After a few months of this service, young Dare Iuit the government, and went into political life, in Yavapai county. W. Y. Kelly and Major Doran of Pres ott remember him well, and the ormer says that MT. Dare made his maiden political speech in the old og building that stood where now :, he Prescott National bank is To- ated.
 From his christening at that time lr. Dare immediately entered the . olitical arena. He was good jump speaker and adopted the law s a profession. At one time in San y he was the assistant dis jet attorney; has been the attorney eneral of Hawaii, and for some ears the appraiser of the port of an Francisco.
 The Hassayamper element of Pres Ut still cling to him, and no matter hat cause he espOuses, political or herwise, they say he will do to tie d !, and they hope that he will again rC me under the wire as a winner in tC e latest race he has entered '
