Arizona Attracting Many Min.
= ing Men

A glance over the hotel register
these days shows a great influx of
mining men from the still frozen
north. They come from Colorado,
Nevada, Utah and Montana. If
they are questioned as to their rea-
sons for migrating to Arizona. they
invariably state that they believe
Arizona mines are at least the equal
of those of the more thoroughly
prospected states like Colorado, and
that the probability of finding a
new mine is greater in Arizona than
elsewhere. Said one very promi-
nent engineer: Arizona has made
for herself a new reputation. There
S no longer doubt of the immensity
of her copper mines, and gold and
silver miners are also working upon
a legitimate basis, This one fact
is having its effect already, and l
have seen within a radius of twenty
miles of Prescott a score of mines
and prospects which in the next
two years which will have shown
the outside world that copper is
not the sole Stay of the mining in
dustry of this county. Courier.
