Here is something that should dp- peal to some one or more Phoenix capitalists if investigation prove the mechanism concerned lives up to what is claimed for it. A resident of Salome writes to the board Of trade that he holds the patents on device that it would appear will do almost everything but drink whisky and swear at the cook. He desires very much to secure capital for start ing d manufacturing plant in either Phoenix or Salome. for turning out his devices which are line of what he calls tractors and self propelling power plants" different from anything now on the market; and also line of "heavy mine haulagc equipment which will be the salvation of many mine operators a long distance from railroad
 The writer says he has no stock to sell but wants to meet people with money to back the enterprise and asks the influence of the board Oi trade to that end. He also informs the secretary where and how he may sec blue prints of his machinery at q certain place here in Phoenix. the sccretary's letter being authority suf- ficient He says he has been assured of a hearing by eastern capitalists but he would prefer to launch his project here in Arizona if possible and build the factory in the new state. and that at no distant day h' proposes to construct demonstratol in some one of the Phoenix machine
