Bisbee daily review., 1918-02-17

owner, renter or rOOmer, it does not matter which, about your home town of Warren? Here is one of the won- der towns of the wide world Located in a natural vista in the mountains. and as beautiful and picturesque a tOwnsite as man could hope to find in a weeks ride upon a t-ansconti- mental traini
 Besides the advantage of location as an ideal suburb for the city of Eisbee. Warren has a distinct claim of its own for permanent growth and prosperity. The Copper Queen is building a great condenser mill within a quarter of a mile of the tovnsite. This mill will represent an expenditure of more than million dollars and will employ a great many men. Any disadvantage to the town arising from its unsightli- ness or noise and hum of industry will be hidden from the town by a hill. yet it is close enough to make Warren the best place for it's work men and office force and engineers and foremen to live
 Did you know that 104 modern and handsome houses were built in War ren last year at a cost of more than $S00. .0002 It is a fact Warren has doubled in population and improve ments in the past three years. Over 20O0 people now dwell within its bOr- ders. Most of these own their own homes
 Did you know that the Warren com pany expended s20.0OO on streets and
 
 and water systems in Warren last year alone7 It is a fact And a new school house costing $20,00O was built there last year. and the C. & A. hos pitaI. costing $1O0,O00. is nearing com pletion, and it stands. a handsome monument of steel and concrete, upon a hill above this wonder vista in the mountains, looking down upon the long rows of bungalows and cottage roofs that gleam red and green and white in the streaming sunshine
 And there is a demand right now for 100 more houses in Warren Rents are too high and houses too scarce there This beautiful wonder town has drawbacks, too, and handicaps. It is poorly lighted and its streets are
 
 walks it has none at all
 What are you going to do about ii
 ~Oh. let the company do il, you say"
 But you will kill the goose that laid the golden egg; you will ride a free horse to death You must do your part, tco. If Warren was incorporat- ed your municipal expenses there would double, and your taxes, too. You would be compelled to grade streets and sidewalks and install lights and replace ditches with cul- verts and clean up the trash and keep the COWS and burros at home
 But the question is. Can Warren be beautiful and improved and made more attractive and slightly without incorporating into a city2 It will cost much less to do this without becom- ing an incorporated city. But will the citizens work together and do it?
 Right now one citizen pays 50 cents a month to have his garbage taken away, and his neighbor throws his garbage in the street or back yard One citizen builds a fence and fixes up his yard Next door is a house with no fence and a yard that is a dumping ground for trash and grazing ground for COWS.
 The few street lights in Warren and its sewer system were installed and maintained by the Warren company without cost to the residents 4 garbage plant and wagons are fur nislled by the company and this serv- ice to the householder is only 50 cents a month, YET NOT ONE-THIRD OF THE RESIDENTS TAKE ADVAN- FACE OF IT, This neglect and petty economy on the part of so many peO- pie tend to nullify the efforts of those who are trying to keep the town clean and sir htly and sanitary. It is incOn ceivable why any good citizen should decline tO take advantage of this gar haze service at this most nominal price.
 There are two classes of people in every town; these who pull their weight in the boat and the dead heads
 One man wants to build a side walk. but what's the use if his neigh bor will not? One man fills a ditch in wOrkmanlike shape and another man digs one and leaves it open. Will you work together If you will, War ren can be made a grand little city in a very few years
 Rome wasn't built in a day. and neither will Warren be built in a year, but the work can be started. The min ing companies have done much for Warren. and will do more. but they cannot do t all; for there is too much 10 do. The citizens Of that town should do their part A cleanup day in Warren would help a lot Suppose every citizen. whether renter, owner or roomer. should work a day. CT hire a man in his place. cleaning up and hauling away all trash and filling the worst ditches and picking the rocks from the streets and making some attempt at a walk in frCnt of his house and building a fence Suppos5 the Warren people talked lights and streets and sidewalks and clean yards Out of discussion is born lght. and all reforms and improvements.
 Imagine Warren five years hence with 500 more houses and white way along the boulevard and cOrnel lamps and graded streets and feneei
