I Preparation is now being made
to sink the main shaft on the
lower property and it is expect.
ed that this will be sunk. to a
depth of 225O feet with a station
at every 100 foot level. The ore
so far uncovered is a carbonate

El Paso or Bisbee from their
loading bins at Hereford.
Considerable construction work,
including the building of a mill
on the property, is now being
planned and as soon as produc.
tion starts it is expected that
from 55 to 80 men will be en-.
ployed there. By next fall. &C
cording to present plans, work
will be started on the driving of
a two and one half mile tunnel
into the mountain where the
company expects to tap one of
the largest ore bodies uncovered

A RAILROAD ACHIEVEMENT

The railways of the United
States, it is estimated by rail-
way officials, will spend nearly
$500, 100000 in 1927 on purchases
of new equipment, Improvement
of road bed and additions and
betterments to terminal facili.
ties. This means that the rail.
roads will have spent 81 900, ,000-
600 for improvements to their
properties, exclusive of repairs
and maintenance, in the seven
years following the end of feder.
al control in 1920. The year
1926 saw more new mileage built
than any year of the last decade.
1t is estimated that probably
1000 miles of new line will be
built in 1927.
Never were the railroads of
the United States rendering such
service as today. This means
that our shippers and travellers
are getting the best service and
the lowest rates of any country
in the world. Statistics prove
these statements. This record
|of private management, when
compared with two years of fed.
eral control and the 81 100000.
800 deficit which fell on the tax
payers to pay for the two year
period, is remarkable testi.
monial to the efficiency of the
present railroad management

PERMIT GIVEN TO BUILD DAM
AT CHARLESTON

Benson. Official permit for
the construction of the Charles.
ton Dam on the San Pedro River
was issued last week by Frank
P. Trott, State Water Commis.
sioner, according to word brought
here by w. G.. Jenkins of the
-Griggs Engineering company.
who spent Thursday and Friday
in Benson.
The permit was issued in the
face of protest from the South.
ern Pacific railroad company,
whose lines run through the pro
posed dam site. and on an opinion
from the Attorney Generals of
fee that this protest was of no
effect because it did not involve
the question of water rights and
that their proper course of pro.
test would be through a court
action restraining the actual con.
struction of the dam on the
ground that it would destroy
personal properly. The opinion
was expressed by Mr.. Jenkins,
however that it was highly pro.
bable that satisfactory agree.
ment could be reached with the
Southern Pacific company which
would prevent the necessity of a
law suit.
The permit to build the dam is
signed by Frank P. Trott, and
and states that the permit GOV.
ers the impounding of 155,500
acre feet of water and that con
struction work on the project
must be started before January
II, 1928.
The securing of this permit
marks the first victory in the
present attempt to secure the
Charleston Dam and was receiv.
ed. with considerable enthusiasm
by local farmers this week. Its
issuance paves the way for the
settlement of the Southern Paci
fic railroad company and the set.
Element of other property ques.
tion both above and below the
dam.
In regard to the friendly suit
now pending between the United
States government and proper.
ty owners on the Gila river and
it's tributaries Mr.. Jenkins be
lieves that it will now be settled
by stipulation and that since the
water of San Pedro flows into
the Gila River far below the
Coolidge Dam there will be no
difficulty in having that phase of
local water rights cleared up.
Engineers working on field
notes secured here during the
past several months are pushing
the work as fast as possible, &C
cording to Mr.. Jenkins and are
working both night and day.
Excellent progress is being
made and it is thought that with.
in the next four or five weeks
the Griggs Engineering com.
pany will be ready to present
their finished report to the land
owners and directors of the lrri.
cation district here.

ARIZONA INDUSTRIAL CONGRESS

Phoenlx-The year just closed
has marked another milestone in
the development OF the Arizona
Plan" of inter. ind ustrial and in.
ter sectional co operation in pro
noting state wide progress and
prosperity.
F'unctiODing as a state wide
chamber of commerce and state
development association, the In.
dustrial Congress has reached a
new peak in the service render.
ed Arizona industries and com
munities 10 the solution of their
problems and in initiating co
ordinated effort in building for
the future.
The past year has been nota
BILE for the continued success of
the Use Arizona Products" !,
Trade at Home, See Arizona"
and similar movements designed
to aid the states existing indus.
tries and stimulate their growth.
It has been particularly note
worthy for the great amount of
new construction and land de
velopment carried out and be.
gun, and for the start made in
working out a State Colonization
and Advertising program that
will enable Arizona to cash in"
on this new development.
AS in previous years. the
greatest part of the work has
been Gone by the Chamber of
Commerce, Farm Bureaus, trade
associations and civic bodies
which hold mem bership in the
Industrial Congress and which
enable it's program to be extend
ed to each locality and branch of
business. The service of the
Industrial Congress is that of
a clearing house for these organ
izations, through which they CO
operate in matters of common
interest and co ordinate activi.
ties along common lines. They
deserve full credit for the re.
suits that have been accomp.
lished.
The Arizona Plant
When the Industrial Congress
was formed five years ago at the
first State Industrial Conference
it was regarded as omewhat of
an experiment. The principles
of co operative endeavor had
been in use from earliest times,
and had been applied to organ
lied movements for years, but
application to the entire field of
industry had not been attempted
before.
It was quickly apparent, how
ever, that it was not only posi-.
BILE for different branches of in.
dustry and business to work to.
gether and aid in the solution cf
each others problems, but that
the benefits to each were so val.
liable that such co operation was
matter of selfish" interest,
and not altruism. Similarly, it
was demonstrated that different
sections, although confronted
with different questions. could
by working together solve them
more easily and quickly, and be.
neft indirectly from each others
progress.
During the past four year this
new application of the CO oper.
ative theory has attacted nation.
al attention, and has been copied
in other parts of the country.
Perhaps the outstanding ex.
ample of its spread is in the New
England states, where the New
England council has been forme.
ed on the same plan as the Ia.
dustrial Congress. and is work.
in galong identical lines.

The Perfect Pardon

Evidently the purpose of abolshing the old pardon
board which decided upon paroles and cemency 1of
prisoners was not to end era OF so1t-nearteuneSS'
Such was the first ntmation when the prison
trustees who now decide on these matterS, an
nounced at their first meeting since they were en-
trusted with this task that there would be very few
pardons and no cemency whatever
Especially emphatic in this matter was M E. Foley
the Democratic member.
Time brings changes After month there appears
to be gentler note to the meetings as evidenced by
the release of T. Guy Perfect from the prison.
This man was sent from Huntington The crime
for which he was sentenced from two to twenty-one
years was an outrage upon young girl 1t was
especially shocking because of the high standng OF
Perfect as a business man and in religious circles
The wealth of Perfect enabled him to have the
ablest legal defense. And in the end jury said
that he should be sent away for very long Time.
Now he is out 1t is true that his close friends
less than month ago said that they could not
understand why it that man who had spent
so MANY thousands of dollars to obtain his liberty
should be still in prison
The old pardon board repeatedly refused to advise
clen7encv The members of that board, which the
Governor asked be abolished said that he should
serve his full time warning to other men who,
gaining wealth and power believe that it gives them
the license ancient kings to ravage the daughters
of others.
But Perfect is out. The prison trustees VINO
intimated that the old pardon board was TOO KIND
to prisoners have turned him loose after very few
months.
OF course the trustees, who sympathized with his
predicament found others in the prison who merlted
relief They turned out with him bootlegger Not
regular bootlegger of This fellow, by coin
cidence had been an employee of State official before
he took up bootlegging as side line
The moral is, of course, to get responsibility and
wealth before you ravage young girls and hire out
to politician before you attempt to sell booze.

The exposure of Stephensonism continues to
draw editorial fire from newspaper men throughout
the country. The most recent contribution Indi-
ana'S political mess from Henry
n, kvJ,,r j. Allen former governor of Kansas
and editor of the Wichita Beacon. In
Kan discussing Hooded Politics in Indiana
DoI;t;ce Mr.. Allen says:
The horrible story which comes
from Indiana out of the "black boxes of D. G.
Stephenson former grand dragon of that State,
plains why the Ku-Klux Khan has withered and died
In the beginning many excellent men, attracted by
certain tenets of the Khan faith joined out of the
belief that they were rendering public service. In
short while the management of the order drfted to
selfish who used it either for political purposes
or the purpose of making profit from gullble men,
bershp. few used it for Furnishing personal enemies
Those who used the order for political purposes did
immeasurably more damage to the public than did
those who took their profits in cash. Nothing has
ever been worse for any community than the brief
periqd of political domination by the Khan. The
