Bruce is Arizona Pioneer

Charles M Bruce, at one time
territorial secretary of Arizona.
and largely interested in the
mining and cattle industry of
Arizona, has been appointed as
sistantant commissioner of the
general land office at Washing
ton. D. C. The Prospector is
glad to note the newspaper fra
ternity, with one exception. re-
members Mr.. Bruce in his official
capacity in Arizona and as pro-
ductive citizen of this section.
Mr.. Bruce is largely interested
in mining in the Patagonia sec
tion-then embraced in Pima
county, including what is now
known as Cochise and Santa Cruz
counties; and he often visited
Tombstone. We are sorry to
note that any Arizona paper
should be found so lacking in re-
cent history as to doubt the au-
thenticity of such contention.
The Prospector is pleased to
claim Mr.. Bruce as a former Ari-
conan, and at the same time
takes pleasure in complimenting
the administration at Washing
ton in selecting so able repre-
sentative of the people to a posi-
ton that demands executive
ability. Mr.. Bruce is not forgot
ten by old-time Arizonans, and
it is with degree of pride that
we are able to chronicle the fact
that one of our old-timers is still
upon the crest of the wave of
prosperity. Tombstone Prospec-
