SHEARING SEASON
 PRACTICALLY OVER
There Will be Heavy Shipment of
 Wool Out of Mesa.

The shearing season throughout this section of the valley is practically over A majority of the bands brought down from the mountains and win tered in the foothills have also been shorn of their fleece and are again on their way back to their ranges in the mountains.
 An important shearing station was established this year at GOldfield where it is app: oximated that no less than seventeen thousand animals were collected. l.. L. Dewell was in charge oi the shearing machines. He has completed the work and was i'll Mesa yesterday The wool has all been brought to this place for shipment.
 It is the opinion of sheep men that the animals averaged approximately seven pounds of wool per head. At ths rate it will mean that no less than l20.O0O pounds of wool was taken at the Goidfield pens.
 It has been estimated that upwards of seven hundred thousand pounds of wool has been shipped out of Mesa in q single season. This of course is in elusive of the valley herds as well as those coming down from the noun tains for the purpose of wintering and also the product taken from the shear ing pens at Webster.

 MONEY FORTHCOMING
The Interest of Phoenix in the Pro
 ject.

Eliza Allen who has been in Phoenix for the past several days in the inter est of the Pineair summer resort re- turned to Mesa on the noon train yes terday with the information that by noon today fully fifteen thousand dol lars would be subscribed toward the building of the road which leads to the resort and consequently assuring its success. MT. Allen in discussing the proposition said: l have been very much encouraged by the success in interesting the PhoeniX people in the project l am or the opinion that the people over there are enough interest eG To float the proposition themselves in the event that Mesa should ever lose interest. The Phoenix people fig ure that with the completion of the Center street bridge they can get in an auto and arrive at Pineair within four hours. That is an item within itself which none of the other resorts possess. They realize that il is d val ley proposition-anOther element of distinction in favor Of Pinedir. An other thing which gave me encoura ce- mcnt in meeting the Phoenicians and presenting my proposition was in the kind of people that became financially interested. The very best peOn'u uf the town are those wno have shbscrib- ed for stock. Two good men ere stiI in the field at that point and they are selling stock.
 When l went to Phoenix for the purpose of telling them that we had something good in the way of a sum- mer resort l made it plain that we residents or the south side wanted them to assist us in the road building and getting the proposition on its feet and then we wanted q director from that town. to assist in the manage ment ol the affairs of the corpora ton. While no action has been taken m tine matter and cannot be until there is an election. am of the opin- ion that Roy Goodrich will be selected as director from the Phoenix dis trict. Mir. Goodrich would not only represent the Phoenix people but he would add strength to the directorate.
 ''I have not been making an active canvass in Tempe but of course l am m touch with the men who have been stationed there and I am reliably in formed that the people are taking an interest and are showing q disposition to assist the proposition financially"
 It will be remembered that the meeting of the stockholders will be held this afternoon in the Mesa opera house where report of the soliciting committee will be heard and it is alto Sether probable that actual work will be commenced on the building of the road at no late date. Every resident of Mesa and vicinity is urged to be at the meeting this afternoon cOmmenc- ing at o'clock

ACRES
 IN ORANGES Mesa Citrus District Alone Will Have That Many Planting Goes on Rapidly Time and Experience Have Shown This Region is Well Adapted to Orange Culture - A Carload of Young Trees
Planting Goes 0n Rapidly

4 carload of orange trees came in yesterday there being something like four thousand trees in the shipment The shipments of this week taken with the seven thousand trees due |" arrive here within the next week will bring the total number of acres in the Mesa section planted [" approximately one thousand
 The acreage nf individual growers in the past has always been rather small which makes it more difficult t" determine the acreage in exact figures However this season and last when some of the ranchers have jumped into the forty-acre class the totals can be approXimated more readily.
 II has ot been so many eyars ago that Mesa was considered out of the orange district. the argument being used that this section was too far away from the foothills to get the desired results. But that reason has been proven a fallacy. Mesa has continued to grow oranges as good as any in the valley Of course the young trees which are being planted and which represent a good portion of the one thousand acres does not prove that Mesa is an orange section. but the bearing groves to the north and tO the south of Mesa does prove that the orange could have no better place to grow and thrive.
 The carload of young trees arriving yesterday were first subjected 10 a rigid inspection to determine the pres ence of any disease or infection of any kind to which orange trees are sub ject The inspection was in charge or Dr A w Morrill, of the board of hor- ticulture. assisted by w K Bowen. the local inspector and MT. Bowen of Phoenix. The trees were shipped through J. H Fleming of Phoenix and are from the WinterhaVen nurseries of Florida The trees have not all been inspected as this article is being written but the number of infected ones is very low.
 The shipment received yesterday will go 10 the following ranchers: J. J. Frazier, A. C. Mcqueen. J. l.. War ing. Dr. R. F. Palmer. John Lowell and W. s. Dorman.
 The trees are being taken from the car as rapidly as possible on account of the ranchers being anxious to get them set out before the water goes out of the canal Sunday. Some of the growers have eight men at work and it is estimated that such d force will be able to plant six or seven hundred trees per day.

INCREASES FORGE
 ON THR LA GARCIA
From Wednesdays Daly)

TOh NeuneSudy Oally)
 N. Pike, Frank Clawson and Major T. c. Jordan, who arrived a few weeks ago from California, have in- augurated a new and extensive plan of development on the La Graeia mine, in the Black Hills, and yes terday marked the beginning of a new era for that enterprise. The force has been increased to the lar gest ever employed, and heavy pro- duetion is under way. With the yield formerly given and which is on the dump, together with that pro- dueed in the future, regular week ly shipments will be made to the Humboldt smelter of the copper ores.
 The cobalt character of the yield will be assorted and placed on the dump, to be disposed of later, or when definite arrangements are made with several manufacturing concerns in the United States and Germany. In the latter country the La Gracia ores carrying this rare mineral are eagerly sought, and it is probable shipments will be made abroad
 In resuming operations the pur- pose is to continue the main shaft to depth, and also to extend the tunnel several hundred feet. These two points for the present will be the only ground opened, and while the mineral system contains many prospecting shafts covering several hundred feet of development, better results in opening up the ground will be afforded by concentrating the work at these two places.
 The company members on the ground feel very much elated over the future of their interests and will remain to direct personally the work in the future. Major Jordan was called to California yesterday, and will return next week to the camp to make it his future home.

LABOR PARTY IS NOT
 INDoRSED BY UNIONS

TUCSON, Ariz, Aug. 3.-In a meeting of delegates of local labor unions, called as a convention to con. fer concerning the outcome of the re- cent labor convention in Phoenix, it was decided not to endorse the "Labor Party" but to allow the members to vote the Republican or Democratic ticket, or the Labor tick ct, if one is put in the field.
 The delegates held the opinion, it is stated, that the principles adopted at the Phoenix convention are such as to render a successful issue to a cooperation of unions impossible.
 The meeting, while called as a convention, was informal. An appar- ent unanimity of opinion upon the question at issue, made the occasion seem not to require an organization, and none was attempted, it is stated.
 Delegates were present from what are known as the downtown" un- ions, only, the Typographical Union, painters, carpenters and bartend- ers' unions not being represented. It was stated in this connection that a meeting of the numerous unions en- ployed in the Southern Pacific shops was held Tuesday evening of last week, and that it had been decided not to enter into the controversy either by endorsing the "Labor Party" or by refusing to do so.
 No further action was taken by the delegates.

NORRIS PLACERS ARE BEING
 EQUIPPED
6From Saturdays Daily)

odNAAhdg Oo4i-J
 Residents of Walnut Grove in the city, state that very much interest is being manifested in that section over the movement to mine Milk Creek of its placer gold, through the introduction of heavy macinery, and of a new type that has recent. ly been invented. The new plant is being rapidly put together, and it is expected to be in operation within the next two weeks. The ground selected is known as the Norris To- cations, covering several acres, and which in recent tests is known to be very valuable.
 The plant is a water process, and is of portable construction. In the handling of the soil a banning pro- cess is used, and later the yield is sluieed in boxes attached to the machine. So accurate is the mechan- ism that flour gold is as easily handled as the coarse product, and a desirable matter connected with the operating of the mechanism is the small number of men necessary and the limited flow of water re- quired.
 No dredging appliances are used and neither is there the steam shovel attachment. Several hundred acres are owned by MT. Norris and the operating point on the creek is about three miles east of the T. B. Carter place.
