1MADE IMAM ERICA"

The European war is going to be
a very direct benefit to the. people of
this country In making them realize
the value of their mineral res ,urcess
In the past it has been easier, and In
some cases, cheaper to import mineral
products, rather than go to the trouble
and expense Of developing our own re-
sources. But the elimination of the
foreign supply has started American
energy and enterprise for the greater
development and utilization of the
mineral products which have been
heretofore neglected. We are find
ing out that we can get along with
out these imports, and that we nave
everything here to fulfill the require
ments of our present day civilization.
Many of our mineral products are still
undeveloped, but the call that is in
for these products should cause a
rapid development. 1t will make
America Independent of the world,
and it will probably continue so after
the war has ended.

T. F. Cole, Authority on Copper
i and World Famous Mining Man,
Thinks Conditions Will Improve;
Optimistic Interview.

BISBEE, Nov. 23.-T. F. Cole, one
ed States and of the world, prominent
in the ownership and of the manage
ment of the Amalgamated Copper
company, the Calumet & Arizona cop
per company, the Greene Cananea and
other copper enterprises of the coUn
try, also prominent in the steel indus
tries arrived in Bisbee yesterday
morning. Mr.. Cole was accompanied
here by Charles Briggs, president OF
the Calumet & Arizona and the com.
panies allied with it and his son, DR..
C. E. Briggs, of Calumet, is now in
the Warren district.
Yesterday Mr.. Cole and party were
in conference with Capt. John C.
Greenway, general manager of the
company, and they also visited Mr..
Walter Douglas, general manager of
the Phelps-Dodge interests.
The party comes to Arizona at this
time for no special purpose other than
to pay their annual visit to the pro-
perties in which they are interested.
After finishing their inspection of
the properties in the Warren district
they will visit the New Cornela pro-
perty in the Ajo mountains, west of
Tucson, where development work has
been underway during the past three
years.
Mr.. Cole was asked for an opinion
as to the general industrial condition
of the country and frankly admitted
that they had been in a wretched
state, but that he thought soon there
would be relief. Speaking of copper
ne said that he thought all the pro-
ULCERS had curtailed their output to
fifty percent of the normal. Some
re shut down and doing nothing and

it is the opinion of Mr.. Cole that others
would be the gamers If they were also
idle, were it not for the necessity to
hold on to a few valuable men and
preserve an organization in the hope
that the dark industrial cloud will
soon raise and disappear.

Phoenix has ever known, the Harry

Istroyede cary this week. Ten bust
ness houses occupied quarters in the
Jones building and all suffered
severe financial reverses with one
exception. The building was ram
shackle affair. and was a veritable
fire trap. The origin of the fire was
of such a suspicious nature that it is
now being Investigated by the insur-
ance department of the state Corpor-
alton Commission
The report is being circulated
around the state that the Ray Con-
solidatedz Mining company will close
down on the first of January until
such a time as the company can i'm
port enough negroes from the south

1t is claimed that the shut down will
be due to the operation of the recently
enacted eighty per cent law.
The sale of the New State group
of gold mines owned by Robert Grit

California is the purchaser. The
group consists of four claims and is
located in the Hassayampa district.
1t is now three weeks since the
state election, but a number of wag-
ers made in Phoenix in reference to
the majority of Governor Hunt have
not been paid off, owing to the diff
fculty in securing accurate returns.
One favorite wager was that Hunt
would receive more votes than Cam
eron and. Young combined. Any num-
Der of bets of this nature were made
in Phoenix and none have been paid
as yet owing to the uncertainty Of
the results.

Practically all the papers in the
state which opposed the reelection Of
Governor Hunt are now insisting that
all the men in the pendtentfary under
sentence of death be Immediately exc
cuted. These papers seem to over
look the fact that jurfes and courts
sometimes err as well as individuals.
There is, one case in particular, that
of Charles Schafer of ella county,
who was convicted and sentenced
without proper trial. The supreme
court in reviewing the case, admit
ted that Schafer had not been given
a proper chance for his life, yet in
one of the most damnab1e decisions
ever handed down by any court,
saw fit to affirm the death pen
atty. If Governor Hunt ever reads
the supreme court decision in the
Schafer case he is almost certain to
commute the death penalty and will
be right in so doing.

The bible.

Mark Twain writes, in one OF his
notebooks, a passage that may well
take its place among the best things
ever said about the style Of the Old
Testament: 1T is hard to make a
choice of the most beautiful passage in
a book which is so gemmed with
beautiful passages as the Bible, Who
taught those ancient writer's their
simplicity of language, their felicity Of
expression, their pathos and. above
all, their faculty of sinking themselves
entirely out of sight of the reader and
making the narrative stand out alone
and seem to tell itself? Shakespeare
is always present when n reads his
books; Macaulay is present when we
follow the march of his stately SEN
fences; but the Old Testament writer's
are hidden from view"

Huerta,s Answer.

Vera CruZ.-The Mexican Foreign
Minister, Senior Portillo y Rojas, trans
mitted to the American Charge DAT
flares, Nelson O'Shaughnessy, a note
dealing with the arrest Of the assist
ant paymaster and a detachment of
bluejackets from the United States
gunboat Dolphin at Tampico and the
demand of Admiral Mayo that the
American Flag be saluted.
In effect the note says that the
Mexican Government cannot see
wherein, under international law, the
federals have inflicted any insult on
the American Nation; that its order
ing the army publicly to salute the
American Flag under the circumstan-
ces would be an admission that the
United States is exercising undue in
f1uences over this country's free &C
ton; and that the President is dis
posed to uphold the honor and SOW
ereignty of Mexico at any cost.
