ledo went to a friend and said: 1--WE
got to get story for the Enquirer.
Do you care if 1 use your name?".
Sure not" said the accommodate
ing friend. GO as far as you like"
In day or so the accommodating
friend was astonished when he picked
up the Enquirer to read an interview
with himself in which he roasted
President Wilson and his canal tolls
policy.
He was astonished because he hap
pened to be an applicant for a federal
job under the administration he was
quoted as roasting.
In telling a friend about it he said:
Il don't know thing about canals,
tolls or exemptions. And l hadn't
the slightest idea any such interview
was to be published"
This illustrates how easy it is for
newspapers to publish interviews that
make men say what the newspapers
want them to say. 1t also shows how
some of the hostility to President
Wilson is manufactured.
There are newspapers, however,
that do not resort to such tactics. The
Cincinnati Enquirer evidently is not
one of them.
Mclean and Hearst are great
friends. Besides owning the Cincin-
natl Enquirer and Washington Post,
Mclean is largely interested in the
gas and street railway companies of
Washington. And, also, like Hearst,
he isn't invited to the White House,
although one of the richest residents
of Washington.

Vinced by what has been already de- Veloped by hard labor alone, without any considerable assistance from cap italists that it is the great mineral country of the world.
 Such predictions as this nearly for ty years ago, is wonderful. Consider the changes that have been made during the period up to the present time and now the state is really and indesputably the greatest producing copper area in the world and it is continuing and advancing to he still fancy the comparison with the huge plants of today See such highly per fected plants as the Copper Queen and Calumet & Arizona at Douglas; the reduction plants at Clifton and Moreinci. The shelter of the Old Dominion at Globe and the erection of a new one at Inspiration; the plant at Hayden, the old shelter at Jerome and the new one under construction at Clarkdale and others projected. And the increased deVel- oprrtent of the mines to produce ores for these new and enlarged plants. It requires but little reflection to un- derstand what wonderful state we the man had who wrote the predic- tions quoted: The greatest mineral country of the world"

Ray Gold Strike

Owing to the engraved plates not being finished in time to illustrate the article written on this subject; We herewith print the plates ihthis weeks issue. we regret their absence from the article, but it was one of those occur rances which are unavoidable Some of the. ore from this new discovery can be seen at Neilrs assay office this city It is of rather odd and peculiar appear ance, and may afford a suggestion to some of the boys when in the hills.
 Then and Now
 There is some doubt as to who built the first shelter in Arizona and who was the first smelterman. We have had small remnants of slag dumps found at different points and unques- tionably there was some reduction of metals in a small way before the Padres came to Arizona. But since the arrival of the white man it is claimed that the first copper made in Arizona was turned out of an adobe furnace at the Longfellow mine at Cliftaon, in

Magma

The management of the Magma mine states that the company intends to build an aerial train from Supe- rior to one of three points, Miami, Ray, or point on the desert to which spur will be laid from the main line of the Southern Pacific.
 The final choice of a route depends on several conditions, principally, what encourag cement the officials of Pinal and Gila counties give and the terms and length of contracts they will be able to secure from the three different smelters involved, namely, the International Smelling & Refining Co.'S plant now building at Miami;
 the Fl Paso Shelter and the one at Hayden. The line to Miami would be fifteen miles long That out on the desert would be ten miles and the one to Ray would be the longest of the three. The contemplated lines i'm
 pOrtdnce is best understood when it is stated that the present rate paid for freight from the Superior dis
 trict to the railway at Florence is S10 per ton and that the cost of de- livering it by an aerial tram to Miami for instance, would be about $1 per ton. The line will not only carry the Magmas output but will have a con- l siderable revenue for that company in 1 handling the output of the entire Pioneer district and incoming sup
 plies at only half the present freight
 rate Estimates have already been
 secured from steel companies and
 the management has practically fin | ished it's estimates. Although it will not give out the approximate cost of such line That to Miami, however probably would cost somewhere from S200,OOO to $4O0,000, according to the
 size of towers, weight of equipment and general details of construction.

M ohave County

It is expected that the sinking of the main shaft of the Arizona South western Copper company will be un- der way within the next thirty days The company is just now getting things in shape to do some deep work and it is expected that with 200 feet more great body of ore will be opened. The present work ings have just reached the sulphides, and as yet shows the effects of teaching. With greater depth any enrichment ground above should show well in the added value of the cres. The vein is an immense one and will surely produce an abund- ance of valuable ore. The opening of great mine at Copperville means big things for that district.

The machinery is to be hauled to the mines of the com pany at Deluge wash, where it will be erected on the mines. No effort will be made to build the mill fos some time. but the mine machinery will be put in commission at once

THE MINES OF ARIZONA

i1S73. The nearest railroad point at that time was 500 miles distant It is also claimed and probably with better evidence to sustain it. that the first copper produced by white men, was through an adobe furnace at the Ajo, Pima County, Cfrom the pOrperty now owned by the Calumet Arizona Copper CoD This property was unquestion- ably worked a number of years pre- Vious to 1873. Col. Posten was on the property before that, extracted ore, andshipped both ore and crude matter to Swansea, Wales. In fact the Ajo was the first mine, l believe, to be worked bya company in Arizona. Col. POsten made this statement to me per sonally several times. It was interest ingto to learn something of it's earlier history. Recently I saw in print a statement that before the Gadsden pur- chase as well as afterwards, Peter | Brady, Granville Oury, Phil D'Armont and several other Americans engaged in that business in. an adobe shelter | located at the Ajo mine, which they were working The shelter product was shipped to Yuma, thence by water to Swansea and along with it was shipped the high grade copper ore. which was not smelted.
 During these operations a force of 300 Mexican troops were sent to drive them out of the country, but they re- fused to be driven out and successfully
 defended themselves against the super
 for force sent to dislodge them The Mexican authorities believed that the
 ground was within their border and they occasionally attempted to assert
 their right. previously to the perma- | nent boundary line being established.
 As previously stated, I examined the
 AJo property for an English Company
 twenty five years ago and I picked I'D |. slas and clinker at that time that as
 saved well in coppe rand some high in silver. And taking the evidences that have been obtained from old timers and records. there seems little doubt
 that Ajo has the preference for prior
 ltY for the production of copper.
 And one can scarcely contemplate
 the difference in Arizona between then
 and now. Hiram A. Hodge who tray-
 eied extensively over Arizona from 1874
 to 1876, published a volume in 1877.
 touching upon mining and how truly
 some of his prophecies have been
 fulfilled Among other statements,
 he says
 The continued hostility of the
 Apache tribes has also been a serious
 hindrance to mining, as well as to
 all other industries in the territory
 and until two years past no man was safe from their murderous at Jacks in any part of the territory. When We consider the isolated con- dition of the country, far from any railroads, destitute of cheap and rap i'd transit, the wonder is that so much has been done in the develop ment of the territory as has been ac-
 cOmplished to the present time
 Too much honor and praise can
