"We people in Ajo are very In

ment of the Tucson-Ajo road",
Mr.. DuMoulin stated. "We would
like very much to see good con-
nection between Ajo and Tucson.
Every effort possible should be
made to support the present bill in
Congress which will provide fed
eral aid for this work. It would
mean a lot to Tucson in the form
of increased business with Ajo
firms, which is now going else
where.
"The county has made good
start and has already spent con-
siderable money on the road, in
Guiding the recent appropriation of
$4,000 for work on the uncom-
pleted link, but further funds
are needed. Citizens of the en-
tire county should support not on
ly the supervisors in this work
but the representatives in congress
to secure their support for the
proposed federal aid."

FIRE IN SHANNON MINE is
PUT OUT; PUMPING WATER

GLEESON, Mar. 6.-The fire
which has been burning for al
most two years in the Sulphide
ore bod es Of the Shannon Cop
per company mine in Gleeson, has
been extinguished and pumps are
now lifting the water to the sur
face.
The burning area was wooded
about three weeks ago, and when
the officials of the company were
satisf ed that the fire had been
put out, pumps were started to
clear the workings of water. This
work will have been accomplished
shortly, and an examination of
the underground workings will re-
4 veal the success or failure of the
exper ment at underground leach
ing of copper ores.
G. w. Bennie, general mana
ger Of the Shannon, has been in
Gleeson the past few weeks sup
ervising the watering of the mine
leaving for other properties m
Mex 60 when confident that the
blaze had been extinguished. He
will return to Gleeson when the
workings have been unwatered,
accompanied by number of en-.
gineers, to make a thorough ex-
animation of the underground
teaching test.
It is believed that the Shannon
company will Immediately re-
sumo operations at Gleeson, if
the test proves successful, and the
officials of the company are con-
fident that it will.
There have been rumors that
the mine would be leased, but
these rumors could not be con-
firmed.

for he was the first big league
