MESA
MESA GOES AFTER
RAILROAD SHOPS
An Aqueous Argument to the Southern
Pacific.

1t is understood that a concerted
movement will be made by Mesa bust
ness men. through the Mesa CONNER
cial club, to induce the Southern Pacific
officials to locate the shops at Mesa
instead of Phoenix. 1t is pointed out
that the water is such at Phoenix that
it cannot be safely used in the lOcomo-
tive boilers. The railroad men say that
the damage to each locomotive would
be at least six hundred dollars should
Phoenix water be used. At Mesa, on
the contrary, the very best of water
can be obtained, the locomotives for
several years past having used water
from the well at Mcqueen siding. There
will be no difficulty in finding a good
location for the shops near town, and
as Mesa win be on the main line, the
company would be in just as convenient
a place as can be secured at the cap
ital. Mesa is a dry town and the
workmen would not have the tempta-
ton of open saloons constantly before
them.

Mr.. STAPLEY WILL BUILD.

o. S Stapley has the plans ready for
the erection of a large business house
at the corner of Robson and Main
streets, on the site of the warehouse
burned at the time of the fire that de-
stroyed several of Ernest Crismon's
buildings in that part of town. Mr..
Stapley's plans include a substantial
one-story building which will be used
for an enlarged furniture business. The
walls will be constructed in such a
manner as to permit the building of a
second story as soon as the require
ments of business necessitates addi-
tional room. The recent completion of
the Crismon buildings and the erection
of the Stapley building will do much
toward attracting trade to that part of
Main street.
