Railroad Opens Vast Territory Along West Coast Greater Mexico

1t is strange, but true, that this inn
portant Mexican port, so near to our
border, city through which all the
commerce for the state passes, does
not boast a single American merchant.
Guaymas harbor, surrounded by tow
ering mountains, though shallow at
low tide, is an ideal one, and several
lines of vessels making regular sail
ings keep in touch with many foreign
ports while Just across the bay, OF
about five miles by rail, lies the town
of Empalme, a rapidly growing rail-
road district division headquarters OF
the Southern Pacific, with shops and
engine sheds. The entrance TO the
harbor is through a small, narrow
channel flanked on both sides by high
cliffs, protecting the city from fierce
storms when the Pacific ocean is in
a playful mood and creating a har-
Dor of refuge to all vessels that reach
it's friendly waters. At high tide the
depth of the water in this protected
harbor averages sixteen feet. Martinez
& Co, the largest shipping agents at
Guaymas, have several vessels plying
on the coast trade, and they are now
negotiating for the purchase of sew
eral larger and more modern vessels.
with the object of establishing trade
between Guaymas and California ports.
It is also the intention of this same
concern to get in line for the trade
with eastern states and Europe when
the Panama canal is completed.
Guaymas is an old city with many
of the old style one-story houses, con-
structed on a solid, substantial basis,
yet since the railroad has brought it
into closer communication with the
United States many modern buildings
have been erected, that of the Banco
de Sonora, with it's elaborate fixtures,

style of bungalow, also the double
story wooden buildings with their
varied coats of paint, are rapidly fill
ing up vacant lots about Guaymas,
making a strange contrast to the solid
old-fashioned houses of adobe and
brick.
Guaymas has many large stores,
wholesale and retail, controlled by Ger
mans and Mexicans. The amount of
business turned over yearly is astound-
ing and out of all comparison with
the size of the place. Some of Quay
mass business houses have turnover
of from three to eight millions of Mex
lean dollars yearly. Guaymas is the
port of the great Yaqui valley, and
indeed for this entire rich state, and
coffee. sugar, hides and beans are
bought in immense quantities by Quay
mas merchants and shipped all over
the world.
One of the most important and enter
prising companies doing business in
Guaymas is the Compania Industrial
Explotadora, which conducts pro-
gressive and up-to-date manufacturing
establishment. The officials and man
ayers are Mexicans, while three Amer
ican foremen are in charge of the
shops. This modern establishment runs
a foundry, a planning mill. match fac
tory nail factory and ice plant. They
also conduct the electric light plant
which furnishes the light to the city
and all homes, and though established
twelve years, have only had one small
breakdown of two hours during that
period.

SONORA

Sonora is one of the highest miner
allied states in the Mexican union and
for years has been famed for the high
ley of gold in it's ores. he northern
portion of the state is very similar
to the neighboring region of southern
Arizona. Much impetus to mining has
been given by the opening up of new
territory by the extensive building
done by the Southern Pacific railroad.
A large amount of foreign capital the
vast majority American, is and has
been for years interested in mining
throughout Sonora.
ARIZPE DISTRICT
The most important district in the
state is Arizpe, including as it does.
Cananea, Nacozari, Dos Cabezas, Pie
dra Verdes, etc. In Arizpe there are
the Carmen mines, temporarily closed
down. The Brooks company of Bisbee
at Fronteras is also not working. The
Moctezuma Copper company are large
owners. El Refugio has produced good
silver-gold ore. 1t is shipped to the
Copper Queen smelter at Douglas.
MAGDALENA DISTRICT
The Ozark Smelling and Mining COM
pany is shipping to Ell Paso, also the
Tri-Bullion Smelling and Development
company's work is being done at the
Otate and the Llano Copper company's
mines.
MOCTEzUMA DISTRICT
A small force is at work at the pro-
montorio The Washington ne u Hue
pac is being operated, also the Colorado
Mining company's properties.
TABATACOCHIC DISTRICT
Considerable ore has been taken from
Ell Globe. Also the Tabatacochic mine
has produced a great deal of extremely
high grade silver for many years The
Arcturus mine, a high grade GOLDFISH
yer proposition, will be again worked.
HERMosILLO DISTRICT
Capt. ]. D. Mccarthy has taken over
the Julia, near Minas Prietas. The
Maria Consolidated Mining company,
owning La Gloria, will erect 200-ton
cyanide plant. Some 10000 tons of
2-ounce silver is blocked out.
Copper ore has been opened up at
the Creston de Cobre mines, also at the
Lluvia de Cobre.
The Sultana mine is to be worked
on an extensive scale.
The Creston Colorado property is en-
ploying 700 men and 5000 tons per
month is the production. This is an
old and famous producer.
ALAMOS DISTRICT
The Yaqui River Consolidated Gold
and Copper company is pushing work;
also the owner of the Mayo. the Quin-
terra, Alamos and the Sonora Develop
ment company.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-09-25

this city and it is claimed that Her
mosillo and vicinity have the largest
and most productive orange plantations
in the Mexican republic.
Not only rich in agricultural lands,
Hermosillo and surrounding territory
can boast of having some Of the largest
mining camps in the state of Sonora.
QUAINT AND OLD
Quaint and old-fashioned is Hermo-
sillo. A stroll through the beautiful
parks beneath groves of palms and
fruit tres convinces the visitor that
the charm in the place lies in it's an
tiquity. Stately public buildings and
grand old churches give the town a
dignified appearance. A visit here will
more than repay and offset the few
hours discomfort of travel by rail.
Many Americans are engaged in the
mining camps, while their families
make Hermosillo their place of resi-
dence. All who have resided here for
any length of time say that the climate
is perfect for eight months in the year,
being equal to that of Southern Ari-
zona, and there are no frosts in the
winter months, and little excessive heat
in the summer.
Clean streets, with cement walks,
well lighted by electricity at night, give
the city a modern touch, but a sight
of the little tram car hauled by two
mules carries one back to the days
Of old.
A large flour mill is in operation,
running at its full capacity, milling for
city in the states of Sonora and Sin
aloa will he find a real up-to-date
American hotel, with exception of
Guaymas. Here is a great opening
for American capital A good bed and
plenty to eat can be found in all hotels
throughout Mexico, but those little
luxuries apd comforts found in all
American hotels are still to come. Such
little Inconvenience in hotel life are
made up for by the charm and sim
plicity Of the towns, and the genial,
tants.

GUAYMAS

AS the principal harbor and port of
the state of Sonora, the city of Quay
mas, located on Guaymas bay. will
play an important part in the develop
ment of trade relations between the
United States and the entire west coast
of Mexico. With a population of 10000,
which will double within the next few
years and distant but twenty-five
hours from Tucson, one of the first
questions an American visitor asks is,
"Where are our American merchants?'

ably to their capital in this industry
during the past few years. The quail
ity of the native stock at present is
poor and small the result, it Is said,
of centuries of inbreeding The inn
portation of a few well bred animals
would develop the business into great
industry.
Cotton of a very high quality is
raised in Sinaloa but the supply does

within striking distance of Tucson,

suring piping in good condition that
will stand high pressure in case OF fire
and eliminating the dangerous prac-
tice of allowing general service ana
other taps to be connected to the lire
line. which is always bursting when a
good pressure is called for.
LARGE COAL STORAGE
The coal storage has a capacity OF
10000 tons. the coal being dumped
from an elevated trestle twenty-five
feet high.
The town is laid out on the Amer
lean plan. with broad streets and side
walks and large fence yards around
each house, sanitary plumbing, etc
The dwellings are constructed of BRICK,
plastered brick, plastered adobe and
frame, with from three to six rooms.
While it was considered too great a
task to make all the houses different,
nevertheless great care was expended
in designing and locating, various
buildings having been grouped most
successfully.
There is a bachelors quarters with
sixty-three rest rooms and screen
veranda around the entire building on
the second floor and lobby, baths, Dill
lard rooms, library and dining room
on the first floor.
A complete sewer system is now De-
ing installed with the septic tank meth
cd of disposal. This is the first system
of this style to be installed in Mexico.
The septic tank will be discharged IN
the Guaymas bay.
All these dwellings and other build
ings are lighted by electricity gener-
ated in the shop powerhouse. Grass
has been sown in all the yards ana
trees are set out along the sidewalks.
An up-to-date water system furnishes
an abundance of water for all pur-
poses. This water is obtained from
four deep wells located four kilo-
meters from Emphane. The wells are
800 feet deep and ten inches in diam
eter. Salt water was struck near the
surface.
