opinion that the Manufacturers Assoc

Mr.. Kirby added:
Nhlle our association would natur-

conference, yet any earnest movement

 In order to keep in touch with the needs of the mining industry the Mining Congress holds annual ses- sions at which are discussed problems affecting mining. For several ses- sions past, the Mining Congress through committees and general dis. cussiOn, has been attacking the prob lem of how to eliminate the mine fakir, and it is believed that law which it has now drawn will have great effect in this direction. This subject will be taken up at the Los Angeles session of the Mining Con- gress, which will be held in Los An geles, September 26 to October l, and steps will probably then be taken to have this law adopted by all min ing states. The Mining Congress has already succeeded in getting this law enacted in seven states-Iowa, Con nectieut, Utah.. Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana. California has also adopt ed d similar law, also Nevada.

 Mir. Henshaw left yesterday for his home in New York, carrying away de- cidedly favorable impressions of the future of this section.
 Mir. Viele inspected the new elee- tTieal power service of his company at different points and witnessed the practical utilization of the service. He has recently visited all mines in the county using the power, and is gratified that the mining community appreciates the efforts of his com pany.

Arizonans will be interested in learning that the last issue of the Columbiad, the official organ of the Knights of Columbus of the United States, deemed it expedient to repub- fish in full the report of the Sana- torium Committee, that was author ized to investigate the physical con- ditions of the country with a view of establishing a home for the mem bers of the order afflicted with tu- bereulosis. In giving the the report such prominent consideration, it is believed the results will be conducive to attracting thousands in the near future to this land of inviting cli- matie conditions.
 |. The Colnmbiad is read in the homes of over 25O,O0O members of the or der, and on the usual basis of com putting readers, it is fair to say that over one million people have by this time perused that noteworthy report.
 The members of the committee were Robert E. Morrison, James J. Kelly and Judge Edwin J. Kirwin. From their report to the National Council, the following excerpt is re- produced: '....-
 ''In the event the order decides to further the great work, we believe it our duty to suggest where the insti- ute should be erected. Members of your committee during the past year have made a special study of the subject. They have travelled in var ious parts of the United States and have become acquainted with eli matte conditions. In sunshine and dry, pure air, the germ of this dis ease cannot survive It follows that where we find the most sunshine, the least amount of humidity and a mild, temperate climate, that is the ideal spot for a tubercular sanatorium.

Among these We might mention the Black Mountains of Tennessee, New Mexico, Texas, Ashville, N. C., and Colorado Springs, Colo. But in the judgment of this committee, after a full investigation, Arizona, for the reasons above set forth, seems to the committee the most desirable place for the erection. of the sanatorium recommended in this report.
 "We, therefore, recommend the building of the tuberculosis sanator- ium in Arizona, at a place to be se- leeted by the commission suggest ed in this report'' .'1
