Bisbee daily review., 1914-02-08

trlct ana tnriNng one or WnlCn we will have something to say later.
 Stil supposing copper ore Of high grade should be found under Warren, and who, in the light of mineral find. ings in that direction, dares say it will not? It's stronger than possibility | surely, and may look not unlike cer- tainty.
 While 1t is not our intention to give 1, any mine descriptions in this article. we can say from reliable information secured thus far during our visit here, that Bisbee never looked so well in ore as today.
 This statement insofar as it refers to the operations of the larger produc- CT of copper. the Copper Queen Min ing company. is highly significant when 1t Is considered that this organi- zation has been continuously active here since April l, of the year 1881. a period of practically thirty three period of practically thirty-three years. This company has always been impor- tant in large tonnages, so that if to- day it has more developed ore than at any time during this long term of years, 1t speaks volumes for this Bis bee camp, and Iron Ore knows 1t has more ore, and by a considerable per. centage, than ever before exposed. as it's annual statement to its sharehold- CTS will undoubtedly show
 The Calumet & Arizona Mining com. pany, the second largest operator here. and a wide-awake. hustling con. cern making about 50.O00,000 pounds of copper annually. has been produc- ing metal for a period of thirteen years, and of it's mineral development we can repeat the statement made concerning the Copper Queen Mining | company. These two organizations in the operation of their local mining properties employ about 4.1OO men, all we'll paid.
 The Bisbee residents, as also the shareholders in these mining com Danies, have good reason to be well pleased with the future outlook for labor, business and dividends.
 To know these mines are to grow larger and more profitable (assum ing the price of copper holds at its present leveD, must be highly pleas ing.
 Iron Ore has long maintained Bis
 bee was an exceptional copper camI that had not yet reached its highest
 development Each succeeding visit
 made this more plain to us and tn,
 examinations we now are mal1inl
 more firmly fix the fact in our mind ! It is pleasing 10 find such conditions
 So often one meets with disappoint
 ment in the reporting of mining prop
 critics that it Is refreshing to look in
 to those that are so rich in achieve
 ment and so plainly assured of lonl and profitable future.
 Bisbee depends entirely upon it mining industry for its active exist
 ence. There are no other lines tha could give its people an excuse fo , remaining were the copper mines L
 become exhausted of minerals, S z that it is particularly good that it ' sole support. is of such a permanent 9 extensive character.
