JONES AND ASSOCIATES
/. TAKE OVER TOWNE MINE

Yesterday the sale of the TOwne
mine, at Chloride, was completed, only
the necessary approval of the deal be-
ing required by the court to allow of
the purchase price to be paid over to
the administrator of the estate Of
John Barry, deceased. The deal was
made by 7. J. Murphy of Needles and
S. S. Jones of Oatman. There are
others in the deal, but it is understood
that Mr.. Jones will be the head of the
new organization that is to handle the
mine. The Towne was considered by
the late John Barry one of his best
holdings, and for many years was held
in high esteem by leasers, who took a
considerable fortune from it.

MOVE TO INCORPORATE
POPULARITY APPROVED
BY PROPERTY HOLDERS
From sunday, 5Aay 5sinerI

Saturday is not proper time to I'M
dertake interviewing a lot of busy
men. but the expressions of views of
those overtaken by The Daily Miner
during a few hours of yesterday, and
which are printed herewith, certainly
Indicate active interest in the move
ment to make Of Kingman the 'undis-
puted center of northwestern Arizona,
and one of the best known towns of
the Southwest. Tersely stated, the
views of the men approached on the
subject are as follows:
J. NJ. Gates, Of LOvin & Withers
Co.: 4 am in favor of incorporation
and would rather pay taxes than to
be assessed in lump sums every time
that improvements are wanted"
John H. Ware Of Lovin & Withers:
Il think that it is a good PROPOSE
ton, perhaps the time is not exactly
ripe, but it is a good proposition just
the same"
H. H. Watkins, manager Arizona
Central bank: at is something that
has to come. There has been u period
between the time that it should have
been done and when the town is ready.
/ Am in favor of Incorporation if the
management is in proper hands"
W. J. Tarr, home owner: "Incor-
poration is necessary to properly take
care of the growth of the town in fair
ness to the county at large. The town
should provide special revenue for its
special needs. l am emphatically in
favor of incorporation"
c. n. Leonard, real estate and
mines: "Good thing for the town in a
great many ways and an instrument
for proper legislation. The city should
take action against public nuisances
and regulate them. We might even be
able to get government building, at
least more united action toward such
propositions"
c. n. Nickel, merchant: eve will
never have a town until it is incor-
porated. 1t is the duty of any pro-
gressive town to incorporate in order
that they can progress. 1t is up to
the business people of the town to up
lift the community"
o. f. Walker, large property own
err: 81 am in favor of Incorporation.
The extra high insurance that l now
pay on my property would pay the
extra taxation, and if should lose my
house by fire because of the lack Of a
water supply, 1 would lose more than
the taxes would amount to for the
next generation"
S. T. Elliott, merchant: 81 think
that Incorporation is a good thing, but
have my doubts about the time being
just ripe"
E. F.. Thompson, large property
owner: 81 was ready four years ago
and it's up to the rest of the people
Thomas Devine, Hotel Beale: 81 am
for it if it is benefit to the TOWN, and
1 would like to attend a meeting OF
the people and hear the matter dis
cussed.

JONES ASTONISHED
At OATMAN GROWTH
From oatman Section Daily Min.L.l

Attorney General Wiley B. Jones
reached Oatman yesterday and was as
busy as a cranberry merchant from
that time forth, going about town on
the run and meeting people here and
there, extending the glad hand indis-
criminately, whether you had vote or
not. He is out for reelection, and
there is a rumor abroad that he is 60
ing to get it.
This is only his second visit to Dat
man, having been here last fall, and
he was astonished with the growth of
the CITY. Candidates are always as
tonished with the growth of your city,
or town, or village, but imagine what
must have been his establishment
when there is something really aston
ishing about it like Oatman. If he is
astonished at the growth of Yucca, for
instance, it must be a strain on his
nervous system to withstand the shock
of the growth of Oatman when be-
held from the candidates benevolent
eyes, for of all the cities that have
had a real growth since Mr.. Jones
made his last call, 0atman has it over
them 40 ways from the two-spot.
Mr.. Jones has the advantage of a
robust physique and shows no decline
from the strenuosity of his campaign.
He is there with bells all the time and
knows everybody by their first names
the minute he meets their gaze.
Whenever he comes to 0atman-as
stated, he has been here twice-he is
much interested in the Geographic
news, to know if such and such an ex-
ecution had taken place on that day
at Florence. The other visit it was
two men. Yesterday it was only one
and he wanted to know if the laws of
Arizona had been fttingly avenged
Thus he combines business with trans
actions, and has not wholly forgotten
the responsibilities of state while out
permitting his constituents to bask ii
the sunlight of his perpetual gen.
iality.
Mr.. Jones paid his respects to the
officials of the various labor unions al
their hall and on the streets, and ex-
planned why he did not come here to
crate on the Fourth, which was be-
/ cause there were two orators here al.
ready and three would make a crowd

OATMAN STRUCK
BY FAMINE OF
WATER AND ICE

From ORtman Section Daily Miner-l
A water shortage that is having a
dozen different effects. has hit Dat
man in the past sc hours. The Tom
Reed pipes refuse to produce a drop
and the whole city was threatened
with a water famine that might have
been serious. The water wagons had
twice as much as they could do and
what made matters fifty times worse
was the fact that the Tom Reed well,
where they had been getting their wa
ter, went dry. The only course open
to them was to drive out TO the pump
ing station, half way to Goldroad, and
load up and make trips early and late
which they did.
But relief was not long in coming,
for the Times line was quickly con-
nected up and water from that source
is supposed to be available through
its connection with the Tom Reed
pipes. It had just happened that A.
NJ. Mcclellan, contractor for the Times
line, had arrived a day or two pre-
viously and was rushing the line in
for the benefit of the Times mine and
town.
As a close second in importance is
the fact of an ice shortage occurring
on account of the water shortage.
Manager J. NJ. Hewlett of the Oatman
Ice & Cold Storage company informed
the Daily Miner yesterday that the
water shortage would make ice impos-
sible to get for the next two or three
days, but after that it will be plenti-
full, as of yore. 1t takes 48 hours to
freeze the ice and the available sup
ply has been exhausted. The whole
city is crying for ice and families have
had to take a back seat to larger pa
/ irons of the ice concern, and finally
they have had to do the next best
thing, which is to get along without it.
Those who happened to have a good
supply on hand were fortunate and it
will mean dollars to them, for their
competitors in most cases have none.
1t was never known before what a
necessity ice was, it being rated in
the minds even of users as in the au-
tomobile class of luxuries. But to
hear those same persons cry that they
cannot get along without it is a
change of tune entirely, and bellies
their former idea that it was some
thing that could be used or not as the
notion happened to strike. Thus the
very ones who least realized it are
the ones who now are the loudest in
their demand for something that they
cannot have, yet which they claim they
cannot get along without.
As a result of these conditions some
great work was done yesterday on the
new water tanks of the United East
ern that are being erected at the
north end of the city. There was :
gang of carpenters and helpers a
work that looked at a distance like
at least 80 men and the way they
hurried the latter of the two tank:
toward completion was beautiful t
see. It will be a very few hours, in
deed, before that supply of water vii
