A LETTER FROM ARIZONA
E. C. Reynolds Describes the City of
Douglas and Writes of Other
Places of interest.
Douglas, Arjz.,
Feb. 12, 1913.

L en-. X, 1910.
Friends Crawford-Will drop you II
few lines to give you an idea of what
Douglas is like. 1t is situated in the
southern part of Cochise county, Ariz.
1t is directly on the boundary of the
United States and Mexico, International
street separating it from Mexico. The
Sulphur Springs valley has been the
main travelled route between the prin
cipal points in Sonora Mexico and the
settlements to the north. The Spanish
missionary used this route, and before
him the Indian followed it as the most
practical trail. Douglas being an in
ternational center with roads reaching
all markets means that Douglas is the
gateway or port of entry for two great
states 1t has a custom house with
large force of inspectors. The city is
the meeting place of mining men and
cattle men; has good banking facilities
and is a live town. There are two of
the largest copper smelters in the
world. Over fifty million dollars worth
