COPPER SITUATION REAssuRINe
Phelps Dodge Officials Decide that
the Detroit Copper company's Pro-
duction of Present Will Not Be Re-
cuce6.

General Manager A. T. Thomson,
of the Detroit Copper Mining company,
on Wednesday of last week visited at
Bisbee, where he met in conference
with Walter Douglas, general manager
of the Phelps Dodge company, the re-
suit of which was a decision that the
present production of the Detroit Cop
per company at Morenci will be main
tanned This decision makes ground
less the fears entertained in regard
to a complete shutdown of the Detroit
Copper company.
This decision will be received with
the greatest interest by the people of
Morenci, where the operations of the
ID. C.. NJ. company are of such mag
nitude.
While no statement to the effect is
made, yet the impression at Morenci
is that the copper depression as re-
f1ected by the wars of Europe has
reached its worst phases, and that any
change which may come will be an
improvement over present conditions.
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1914-09-18

Announcement is made this week
that work on the Morenci half of the
Morenci-C Clifton highway, this half be-
ing located from Morenci through the
Morenci canyon to Bunkers, the end
ing of the present new construction,
VIII begin within few days, probably
late next week.
All work will be under the direct
supervision of the county road super
intendent, as is being followed with
the work now in progress along the
Morenci streets, rather than under con-
tract made by the county supervisors
with bidding contractors.
Approximately two hundred men will
be employed on this work, which is ex-
pected to be finally completed not
later than January 1, 1915.
The men, numbering nearly one hun
dred, now employed upon the Morenci
street construction, will be given, if
desired employment upon the Morenci
Clifton road, and will be thus trans
ferred within two weeks, as the
street work will at that time probably
be finished.
The coming road work will be I'M
der the personal supervision of Con-
tractor Black, who is to this extent,
a deputy under Road Superintendent
Await. Black is employed as super
intendent of the present street con-
struction. Surveys made by Coun-
ty Engineer Tunis are followed in
both constructions. The route of
the Morenci half of the highway to
Clifton has already been surveyed by
the county engineer, who states that it
follows the North walls of the Mo-
renci canyon, above the Morenci South
ern railway, and in places one hun
dred feet above the bottom of the
canyon The distance for nearly the
whole way is through solid rock, maxi
ing the construction of the first mag
nitude, as blasting throughout the dis
lance will be necessary to the making
of a road bed. In every respect the
new road will be of the most modern
even better than the Clifton half al
ready completed, and will connect the
two neighboring towns with a high
way that is without a peer in Arizona.
Not the least important meaning of
these altered plans of the supervisors
is that hundreds of men will be given
employment lessening the injuries in
cident to the present industrial de-
preston. Under the state law, the
wages paid will be in proportion with
those paid to similar labor employed
In other lines of work.
In relation to the present campaign
of road building throughout the Mo
renci section is the growing desire up
on the part of the people of both Mo
renci and Metcalf that the Morenci
street soon to be completed be con-
tinued into Metcah. A road of
moderately good nature is already com
pleted for part of the distance be
tween the two towns, and reports are
that at very slight expense the coun-
ty could make modern highway into
Metcalf, thus giving communication
which is badly needed. Clifton, OF
course would be likewise placed in

was a good native trade today, sales
men admitting that buyers Just ate

as that kind is getting scarce, the
best here selling at $9.15. Strictly

old South Portrayed


On the evening of Wednesday, Sept
ennber %, will be shown at the MO
renci Club "The Kangaroo five act
production which portrays life in the
old South during the early years OF
the last century. The story, which
is written by Harris Dickson, the
author of "Ole Reliable" the most
inimitable negro character of modern
days, deals with the stirring operations
of an organized gang which had for
membership men from all walks OF
life, and the purpose of which was
robbery in various forms, with slave
running not the least magnitude. The
grand aim of the gang is the success
of a colossal theft after which all will
escape safely to old Mexico. In the
coming attraction are shown scenes OF
rapid action, with settings of the plan
tation homes and river life of the New
Orleans country during the South's
primest slavery days. Dickson as the
author of "Ole Reliable" easily shows
himself to be among the country's
most gifted artists in drawing word
pictures of the modern South in both
its population and topography, max
ing keen interest aroused by the pro-
duction which Manager Krichbaum
was fortunate in securing.

eosT OF PRODUCING.
c & A. Company in Warrtn District
Claimed to Have Lowest Cost of
Production.

The Era is in receipt of tab
iment of the interior, the same having
recently been compiled, showing the
average cost of producing copper at
the various mines in Arizona.
The rate of production and cost is
as follows:
Arizona Copper company. 100000
pounds, 9 IL cents.
Calumet & Arizona, 90,O00,0O0
pounds, z IL cents.
Miami Copper Company, 29,0O0,-
600 pounds, 9 IA cents.
Phelps Dodge company, $1,000
900 pounds, s IL cents.
Ray Consolidated, 100000 pounds
6 Ia cents.
Shannon, 100000 pounds, 10 IL
cents
sbattuck Arizona, 100000 pounds
Z 3-S cents.
It is claimed that the Calumet &
Arizona company has the lowest cost
of production in the United States.
U. S. Mineral Report.
Minerals produced in the United
States in 1913 were valued at $780,
100000, establishing new record,
Secretary Lane announced today. This
was an increase of more than $780,
100000 over the production of 1912,
and of $500,000,000 over the 1911 out
put.
Secretary Lane predicted a still
further increase because of new OPP
portunities for marketing resulting
from the European war and the open
ing of the Panama canal.

superabundant Patriotism

Superabundant Patriotism
As a result of too much celebration
of September 16 by number of Next
cans, one of the participants was on
the evening of that day shot in five
places by com panion who had run
amuck from strong drink. The Graz
ed man without warning seized his re-
volver, and ran past group of ac-
quaintances, one of whom was select
ed as a target for the entire charges
of the gun. The assailed Mexican
was wounded in the arms with four
bullets, while another entered the
abdomen. The physician in attend
ance states that all wounds we're
superficial, and that the mans life is
not in danger. His assailant escaped,
although only after search that con-
tinued for more than two hours by
Officers Keppler and Dickens, the
latter so closely pursuing the criminal
that shots were exchanged between
the two, but with no resultant in
jury.

cuIlinane Truant Officer
The Morencf school board has en-
ployed Jno. Cullinane to serve as
the schools truant officer for this
term. The difficulty of exacting com
pliance with the states compulsory
education law decided the Board upon
the change, as heretofore the towns
constable who was given this work,
often found other duties so pressing
that truancy work could receive only
secondary consideration.
