 We completed the erection of 6 50 ton mill on Saturday and will at once begin operations. On Sunday . trial run vas made that proved successful in every detail. The mill Is located about : miles from the mines. The Iores are transported to the mill by auto trucks The mine was formerly owned by the Huachuca Development Co. We have sufficient high grade ore in sight to keep she mill going for years
 The present mill Is more or lees of an experimental plant. If the meth. ods 1t employs prove successful we will add further mills of the same type and handle larger amounts of ore. If not. win alter the type sor better results. We will be able to handle the ores of other mines of the district and will later accept custom ores thus aiding in the development Of other properties in our district"

public prosperity depends largely upon the utilities that bring them in contact with each other. and that the more nearly perfect in efficiency and suffi- ciency the utilities serving the public are. the more prosperity. comforts and conyeniences the public will enjoy.
 We believe our story is an itterest. ing one. and we hope that everyone will read it.
 Note-As an instance of the kind of startling news which newspapers sometimes publish, We want to call attention to recent articles in the newspapers headed, United States Government Calls Upon Two Girl Ste nographers to Tell Where They Got Two Million Dollars to Form the Cor poration Securities and Investment Company. Then the article went on to say that this Corporation Securities and Investment Company was a scheme of the Telephone Company to further it's purpose of monopoIizing telephone companies, etc.
 
 been met with strong feeling in tho State of Montana-well-night uniYer- sal-that something should be done to relieve the citizens of that state, of two telephone systems. Public meet ings have been held, and votes taken, that the telephones of one or the other of the systems should be thrown out. Resolutions and letters have been submitted to us, and we have started cut to see what we could do to relieve the citizens of that state of this bur den.
 We found that the Independent in. terests operating there also operated in Spokane, in the State of Washing. ton and in northern Idaho, and that the Independent interests doing busL ness in Montana could not be bought or sold, so as to alone cover the prop erty of Montana, but that the purchase must include ther property in the states of Idaho and Washington. The Montain States Telephone and Tele- graph Company does not operate in either of these sections, and, there fore, is not responsible for telephone conditions there, nor does 1t wish to operate there, but We felt He must meet the situation fin Montana, and so, in order to be in a position to either buy or sell. from or to. tho Independent; interests in Montana, there was formed this Corporation Ss- curities and Investment Company, as a corporate company to enter into ne gotiations with the Independent inter- ests in Montana, which negotiations are now in progress, and, if possible, to buy these Independent interests In Montana. northern Idaho and wash ington. and then in the end, if that purpose was accomplished, the Cor poration Securities and investment company should sell to The Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Com paay the portion of the Independent plants located in Montana, and sell to others the portion of these Inde- pendent plants existing in northern Idahon and Washington.
 We explain this so the public may know that in the above Forevord. where we say there is no company within 8 company. or wheels within wheels" we are speaking absolutely truly and also that this Corporation Securities and Investment Company. which was SO freely advertised by the articles in the news papers referred to. is absolutely legitimate and proper company and organized for the speciiic purposes stated.
