DOUGLAS HAS
 STRENGTH AT
 MINING MEET
Only Two From City Present But Many Outsiders Stand With Them and Urge Their Cause

tt is unfortunate that Douglas was
 1ot represented in the Americap
 Whining congress in Los Angeles iaei
 week by a larger delegation. Whils
 only two residents of Douglas were
 at the convention. Mir. o. L. Near, lduring its entire session and the cd.
 itor of the International at two ses-
 sions, Douglas has staunch friepds
 in the conventions from other sections
 of Arizona and the city stood forls as an active and successful rival ei
 all other localities for the 1911 sos
 sion of the congress.
 On Thursday evening there was q
 meeting of many of the delegates aud
 members of the congress from A,4
 zont- At this meeting were some twenty-five Arizonans and while 1t was practically agreed that Douglas had the best claims for the convep tion it was decided that it would h. i be better 10 get an agreement from i, the new board of directors locatirl II
 the next congress in Arizona, leaviu,
 the matter of the exact city to be fa ! vored to be determined later by the directors.
 The delegates from Douglas pointed
 out that that if Arizona was to ha,s | session of this congress no oths. I city offered so many reasons why | l should come here. It was poin .ej out that here is the center of one of the most active and largest mineral sections of the Southwest, being tho center of triangle formed by the Warren Mining district to the north and Cananea and Nacozari mining districts to the south in Mexico. It was argued that should Phoenix ask for this congress there would be nothing O special interest in that city or vicinity to interest mining men, while here these men could have the opportunity of visiting the greatest copper mines and reduction works in the Southwest.
 There was some doubt expressed by those unacquainted with Douglas as to the existence here of sufficient hotel accommodation to properly take care of this congress. In answer to this the fact was stated that Douglas rad the finest hotel in the Southwest and besides many other commodious hotels, equal in capacity to that of any Arizona city. General A. J. Sampson, who was representing Phoe- nix. stated that he recognized the just claims of Douglas and when the final time came for action Phoenix convention on the ground of its SUI. perior ability to take care Of it..
 At the meeting of the Arizona dele gation Col. l.. w. Powell was agreed upon as the Arizona member Of the board of directors of the congress and was afterwards elected by the main body of the congress. This se- lection places one of Arizona's fore most mining men on the board of directors of the mining congress and will give prominence to Arizona in this organization which has already accomplished much for the mining industry of the country.
 Following Is the formal invitation extended to the mining congress on behalf or Douglas, supplemented by a statement from the Douglas Cham

Edison: His
Life and
Inventions

The authors are Frank Lewis
Dyer and Thomas Commerford
Martin. Mr.. Dyer is general
counsel for the Edison interests
and practically shares the in
ventor's daily life. Mr.. Martin
was formerly president of the
American Institute of Electrical
Engineers. The entire MS.
has been read and revised by
Edison himself. This is in
fact the real Edison. In this
book one may hear and see
Edison-from his birth in Ohio,
his boyhood in Michigan, his
experience as newsboy and his
work as telegraph operator,
winning his way upward. Ed
sons invention of the phone
graph and his removal to Menlo
Park lead to one Of the most
absorbing steries-the inven-
ton OF the incandescent lamp.
This is told for the first time.
From first to last we see the
days and nights he spent in the
magical realm Of discovery.
