FAMOUS OLD SAN JUAN MINE IS
TAKEN OVERLY N.Y., SYNDICATE

The famous old San Juan copper
mine, the largest copper mine in Gra-
ham county, has been taken over by
a syndicate of New York mining op-
orators, and a reorganization of the
San Juan Copper company effected
The name has been changed to that of
the Atlas Copper company.
The Atlas copper property is one of
Arizona's historic mines, having gone
through many ups and downs during
the past years as has nearly all of Ari-
zona's mines.
The property was mined during
these years for it's high grade ore, the
same being shipped direct to the smell
ters. The records show approximate
ly 100000 in shipments.
The mine was acquired about two
years ago by Messrs. Lewis A. Dun
ham and T. J. Sparkes, who proved
by churn drilling that the property
had great possibilities as a low grade
disseminated copper. Their develop
ment gave the mine 100000 tons of
positive ore of a value of 3.65 per
cent per ton. The undeveloped area

ALL RAY RALLIES IN SUPPORT
Of GUILDS FUND FOR BELC|ANS

The Womans Auxiliary of the Amer
lean Institute of Mining Engineers is
an organization for the purpose of re-
lief work in Europe. 1t is note
worthy in that all the workers are
giving their services free of charge
and all other avenues of expense are
closed in the same way, that is, free
gifts. AS a result all relief funds go
ing through the hands of this organiza-
ton really reach Europe.
Because of this fact, the Woman's
Guild of Ray decided to help bit in
response to the plea of the Auxiliary.
They felt that the very condition that
is making Ray prosperous is the same
condition that is starving babies in
Europe If there were no war in
Europe there would be no bonus here.
1t does seem reasonable to send a little
of that bonus to the poor martyrs who
have been burned by the same flame
which is making us warm.
It was planned-to arrange for n
entertainment that would net, per-
The Arizona copper camp., 1917-04-21

as estimated gives the mine possbn-
tiles of better than 2O,OOO,0OO TONS In
addition there is a large tonnage of
carbonate and oxide ores.
The present management have
started active work, it being their in
tention to continue the work of churn
drilling and underground development.
The mine is well equipped for this
work, with complete drilling outfit,
hoist, compressors, etc.
During the high price of copper,
shipments of the carbonate ore can
be made at a good profit and this is
now being done.
The old San Juan mine has always
been considered a good property, and
the faith of those who have stayed
with it are now that it has the proper
financial backing apparently to be
verified.
The Atlas Copper company is incor-
porated under the laws of Arizona; !;
100000 shares, par value $1.00;
100000 in the treasury. The stock is
being dealt in quite actively at the
present time.

SUPREME TEST Of NATION HERE;
ALL MUST ACT, SERVE TOGETHER

1t is evident to every thinking man
that our industries, in farms, in ship
yards, in the mines, in the factories,
must be made more prolific and more
efficient than ever and that they
must be more economically managed
and better adapted to the particular
requirements of our task than they
have been; and what l want to say
is that the men and the women who
devote their thought and their energy
to these things will be serving the
country and conducting the fight for
peace and freedom just as TRULY and
battlefield or in the trenches. The in
dustrial forces of the country, men
and women alike, will be a great ma
tional, great international service
army-a notable and honored host
engaged in the service of the nation
and the world, the efficient friends
Thousands, nay hundreds of thous-
ands of men otherwise liable to mill
tary service will be of right and of
necessity excused from that service
and assigned to the fundamental, sus-
staining work of. the fields and fac
tories and mines, and they will be
as much part of the great patriotic
force of the nation as the men under
fire.
take the liberty, therefore of
addressing this word to the farmers
of the country, and to all who work
on the farms The supreme need of
our own nation and of the nations
with which we are cooperating is
an abundance of supplies and es
pecially of foodstuffs. The import
ance of an adequate food supply, es-
pecially for the present year, is super
! lative. Without abundant food alike
for the armies and the peoples now
at war, the whole great enterprise up
on which we have embarked will break
down and fail. The worlds food re-
serves are low. Not only during the
present emergency, but for some time
after peace shall have come both our
own people and a large proportion of
the people of Europe must rely upon
the harvests in America. Upon the far
mers of this country therefore, in
large measure, rests the fate of the
war and the fate of the nations May
the nation not count upon them to omit
no step that will increase the produc-
| tion of their land or that will bring
about the most effective cooperation
in the sale and distribution of their
food production.
The time is short. 1t is of the most
imperative importance that everything
possible be done and done Immediately
to make sure of large harvests. l call
upon young men and old alike and upon
the able bodied boys of the land to ac-
cept and act upon this duty-to turn
in hosts to the farms and make GER
tain that no pains and no labor is lack
ing in this great matter.
l particularly appeal to the farmers
of the south to plant abundant food
stuffs as well as cotton They can

My fellow country men:


The entrance of our beloved country
into the grim and terrible war for
democracy and human rights which
many problems of national life and
action which call for immediate con-
sideration and settlement that l hope
you will permit me to address to
you a few words of earnest counsel
and appeal with regard to them.
We are rapidly putting our navy
upon an effective war footing and
are about to create and equip a great
army, but these are the simplest
parts of the great task to which we
have addressed ourselves. There is
not a single selfish element, so far
as I can see, in the cause we are
fighting for We are fighting for
what we believe and wish to be the
rights of mankind and for the future
peace and security of the world To
do this great thing Worthily and sue
cessfuly we must devote ourselves to
the service without regard to profit
or material advantage and with an
energy and intelligence that will rise
to the level of the enterprise itself.
We must realize to the full, how great
the task is and how many things how
many kinds and elements of capacity
and service and self sacrifice it in
wolves.
These, then, are the things we
must do we'll, besides fighting-the
things without which mere fighting
would be fruitless.
We must supply abundant food for
ourselves and for our armies and our
seamen not only but for a large part
| of the nations with whom we have
made common cause, in whose support
and by whose sides we shall be fight
ing.
We must supply ships by the hum
dreds out of our ship yards to carry
to the other side of the sea, submar-
ines or no submarines what will every
day be needed there and abundant ma
terials out of our fields and our mines
and our factories with which not only
to clothe and equip our own forces on
land and sea, but also to clothe and
support our people for whom the gall
liant fellows under arms can no longer
work, to help clothe and equip the
armies with which we are cooperating
in Europe, and to keep the looms and
manufactures there in ray MATERIAL
coal to keep the fires going in ships at
sea and in the furnaces of hundreds
of factories across the sea; steel out
of which to make arms and ammuni-
ton, both here and there; rails for
worn out railways back of the fight
ing fronts, locomotives and rolling
stock to take the place of those every
day going to pieces; mules, horses,
cattle for labor and for military ser
vice; everything with which the peo-
pie of England and France and Italy
and Russia have usually supplied
themselves but cannot now afford the
men the materials or the machinery
to make.

INSULTS TO FLAG
TO BE PUNISHED


PHOENIX, Ariz., April 2O.-At-
torney General Wiley Jones of Ari-
zona wrote to all county attorneys
in the state calling upon them to
act promptly against all acts of
desecration of the American flag
and to suppress wanton insults to
the colors. He also cited the Ari-
zona statute providing for the pun
ishment of treason by death, and
called attention to the fact that the
death penalty is the only punish
ment fixed for treason. No impris-
onment is provided for the crime,
Jones declares.

gested that the first game of the sea-
