Mining and the West.

In financial and commercial centers,
throughout the eastern states, all eyes
are turned to the west. A great many
there are who are particularly interest
ed in commercial pursuits; in agricul-
ture, and in stock raising; but the
greatest interest. by all odds, is being
taken in our wonderful mining industry.
In reviewing the history of Che west,
in noting its almost marvellous growth,
the close observer cannot but be i'm
pressed by the significant fact that it
was mining that led to the reclaiming
of the deserts, the valleys and the
table lands, and that had it not been
for the adventurous spirit of the pio-
neer miner the Pacific slope and this
intermountain region would, today, be
an unknown country, practically bar
rem waste, and region beyond the con-
fines of civilization.
To the mining industry the west
owes debt that can never be fully re-
paid, and the reclamation of this vast
region is unquestionably due to the
constant stream of imperishable wealth
that has come from our mines, in al
most constant stream, from the day
that gold was first discovered in CAL:
fornia. AS matter of fact, Califor
MIA, with its genial cline, its orchards
and its groves, owes its very life to the
boom that was started when it was dis
covered that in the hills, back from the
coast, there existed great and almost
inexhaustible deposits of the precious
metals; and the same can be said OF
the interior states west of the Rocky
Mountains.
Gold was the lodestone that first lee
to the settlement of California by the
American people; and, the spirit of un
rest, of enterprise and progressiveness
so common in newly settled country
caused the early pioneers to branch out
and seek bonanzas in unknown fields
the result being that there is hardly /;

and cattle grower.
When the disgruntled but unreason
ing individual claims that mining is no
legitimate, he should pause before ex
pressing himself too radically while tn
net results, the benefits of mining, ar
being enumerated. Nothing that WI,
ever great was eyer founded upon
falsehood or lie. Upon an insecur
or rotten foundation: and yet the spler

nothing less than the mining industry

YODER Threatens
TO SUPPRESS news
MAY REFUSE TO GIVE OF I NEWS
OF ROBBERIES IN THE
FUTURE.

For the past month newspaper re-
porters on Tulsa papers have cXperien-
ced considerable trouble in securing
police court news, especially reports
OF the numerous robberies that are
committed nightly, as the p).ice Off
GERS always refuse to give out the in
formation, as also in the majority OF
cases does Chief Yoder.
ut may yet be necessary for me TO
issue orders to all newspaper men not
to enter my private office" said
Chief Yoder yesterday. He also
threatened to issue an order TO all Of
ficers not to give out any Information
whatever to reporters.
Yoder claims that when reports OF
robberies are published that !, reflects
on the police department and evident
ly for that purpose he has been sup
pressing news Of any robberiCs.
Although reports Of most Of the
robberies have been published in the
papers they have been forced to Sc
cure the details from sources other
than the police station, where such
news is supposed to be secured.

TRACKS ARE UNDER WATER
GuIlies in Graham Mountains Filie'
by Piles of HaiIstones.

The ella Valley was 'drenched
Wednesday with one of the heaviest
rain storms ever experienced there at
such an early date in the summer
Streams in the valley were swollen
out of their banks last night and I'M
mense benefits are expected to be
reaped by the farmers from the ex-
traordinary precipitation.
While torrents of rain fell in the
valley a severe hail storm pelted the
sides of the Graham mountains and
completely filled the gullies, accord
ing to W. A. Conner who arrived on
the nights train from the valley.
Heavy rain fell throughout the val
ley from Stafford to San Carlos, Mr..
Conner reports, and a torrent fell at
Rice, swelling the San Carlos river
to such an extent that the water over
flowed the railroad tracks in places.
Globe felt the effects of the storm
in the increased humidity here. AL
though the temperature was not I'M
usually high in the city it seemed to
be hotter here than at any time this
summer because of the moisture in
the air.
Several claps of thunder were heard
here between six and seven o'clock
last evening but the expected shower
did not NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Record

SOME DETAILS. OF
RACE FROM
Ell PASO
Purses Total $645o; Distance Is $40
Miles; Will Be Won in Fourteen
Hours.

In motoring circles the latest event
lof Importance is the completion OF
preliminary arrangements for the FL
tPaso-Phoenix auto race, next fair
week. This race is now assured and
lit is expected that there will be at
least fifteen entrants. One car has
already been entered
For the Ell Paso-Phoenix race, Ell
Paso has voted $1,000, Bisbee $1,000,
Phoenix $1,000. Douglas district $3.50,
Tombstone 5000, Mesa $500. Owing to
the expense which Tucson will face
In inaugurating it's own auto race meet
only $500 was asked of that city. Then
the fifteen entries each will pay 500
entrance fee, making in all $6,45O.
| The purses will be a first, second,
third and fourth, but will not be a
lump sum. There will be Douglas
purse, one from Bisbee, another for
Tucson, one for Mesa and possibly
one for Tempe in addition to the
Phoenix purse. In order for a car to
show in the money it must make the
entire distance and finish within thir-
ty-six hours. The first car to reach
each of the cities above mentioned
will win the first money, or their
purse, SO that one car may win second
or third money at many ofthe cities
along the line and the first money at
Phoenix, or it may make squirt on
the last leg of the race between the
last purse city and Phoenix and win
first money without getting any of the
coin along the road.
The route selected from Ell PaSo to
Phoenix measures about $40 miles and
George Purdy Billiard says that the
racers will run this in about IA hours
I'm spite of the fact that many of the
Ell Paso drivers say they will do it
in IL hours.
From Ell Paso the route will be:
Douglas, Bisbee, Tombstone, Tue
son, Florence, Mesa, Tempe, Phoenix,
Night control to be at Tucson. The
racers will leave Tucson at o'clock
in the morning and will arrive in
at about 10 o'clock the same
morning. 1t has not been decided, but |
it is probable that the directors will |
select Wednesday and Thursday for
this race and Thursday afternoon for |
the big track races at the fair.
Billiard will be in Los Angeles on
July 10 and II at the Hollenbeck hotel
and he will then have long confer
other western drivers At this CON
ference he will make an effort to in
terest the speeders in the coming
Southern Arizona fair to be held in
Tucson, and it is his opinion that
many of them will ship their racing
cars to Tucson and then drive them
over the road to Phoenix to take part
n the track events here during fair
week When in Tucson he advised
hat the Tucson delegation raise about
g, 900 for purse for a 300 or 400 mile
ace and this will attract all the big
lrawing cards and big crowd. 4
