The Wright Manufacturing company
of East Chicago, which was recently in
corporated under the state laws of In

it necessary in order to meet the de-

100000 to 100000
The transmotor as is well understood
by people who have studied the machin-
cry is practical device transmitting
the power from stationary automobile
to power propelled machinery.
The original plan Of this company was
to begin operations in the state of In
diana alone and increase from time 10
time as the business justified. but from
inquiries received and the great amount
OF interest manifest. it soon became an
parent that it would be advisable to in
clude the entire United States. This
necessitated an increase Of the capital
zation.
As soon as the weather permits the
company viii put out demonstrations of

cure shortly. If satisfactory arrange
ments cannot be made. the company ok
poets to begin the erection Of a new
plant without delay

BABYLON THE MAGNIFICENT

Mohave County miner., 1917-06-23
FINAL LSTOCKMEN ORGANIZEGO GOOD
 PROSPECTS

FLORENCE, June 2O.-(SpeciaD- One of the most important moves for betterment of conditions in stock growing in Pinal county yet made was the organization of a Pinal Coun- ty Cattle Growers association, with p charter members. This is the sec ond or third attempt to get the cattle men together in a cooperative organ ization. However, the success of the organization seems now assured.
 The meeting was held at the court house and was called to order by S. O. Thompson, who explained the ob- ject of the meeting, which was to form a county cattlemen's association which should cooperate with the state asso- citation. It was explained that here tofore the cattlemen of Pinal county had no representation in the state as- and therefore had no voice in the matter of appointments on the sanitary board of inspectors. It was also explained that in no line of business in Pinal county was coopera- tion more necessary than in the cattle business. Several of the gentlemen present spoke encouragingly of the necessity of such an organization with the result that permanent organiza- tion was effected.
 Those who were present and took part in the organization of the asso- citation were: Chas. Swingle, Antonio Louez, Nick" Meyers, Henry Young, Lee Pool, Winkleman; T. A. Nicholas, Phil Rodondo, Wm. Speed J., w. An gel, w. McAdie, Wm. Knight, M. c. Clements, s. O. Thompson, Eugene Jack Hummer, M. S. Plum mer and Cliff Bogard, Florence; J. H. Zelleweger, Kelvin; J. J.

KINGNAN BOY SAYS
 ARMY LIFE lS GREAT;
 GETS BRIDGE SNIPER
IFrun saturdaz,s Daily Minerl


 Life in the army is anything but monotonOus, writes Corporal R. S. Adams, son of Constable George M. Adams of Kingman, who is member of Company K, Seventh California In fantry. Corporal Adams has been stationed at Los Angeles guarding the Santa Fe bridges there, and has had several brushes with snipers. He has just been detailed to recruit duty at San Bernardino. "We want to fill up our company before the yellow guys are drafted in," he wrote this week, referring to the accretions to the army from the selective draft.
 A few nights ago he fired 13 times at a sniper. All he could see was the flash from his assailant's gun. He wrote that ''there was good evidence" later of his craftsmanship when man shot through the abdomen was found.
