RECORDING FEES in
COUNTY SHOW LARGE
INCREASE FOR 1926

More than $1,000 was collected In
fees for the recording OF instruments
by the county recorder during the
year 1925, the amount representing
an increase in collected fees of
SS22.15 over the previous year, ac-
cording to the annual report issued
Friday by H. L. Hutchison, county
recorder
The fees We're collected on the
filing of 1855 instruments, an in
crease in the number of documents
Of 1888 over the preceding year. The
largest number of documents filed
in any one classification was the
total of 1858 conditional sale con7
tracts. The next largest total was
1888 deeds of real estate, and the
third largest total wac 943 certifi-
Gates of sale.
That surprising interest in pros
pecting is being evidenced in the
county is seen in the fact that 573
mine location notices We're recorded.
A total of 102 deeds of mines were
recorded. A comparison of the busi-
ness Of the county recorders office
for each year during the past five
years shows that the business has
been slightly increased each success

A. c. JAMES, WHOSE FORTUNE
FIRST CAME FROM SOUTHWEST
MINES, FEATURED In ARTICLE

The February issue of the Ameri-
can Review Of Reviews contains a
very interesting and Illuminating
article on Arthur G., James, heavy
stockholder in the Phelps Dodge
corporation and the Southern Pacific
company, whose original fortune
came from the mining industry in
this section. The article is by Frank
of this type ever published on James,
who has always tried to avoid pub
licity.
The article refers to James as a
new railroad giant and states that
he is the largest single holder Of
railroad securities in the country and
is possessed of a fortune that ranks
among the first ten in the United
States While the article deals pri-
marily with the railroad activities
of James, the personal history of
the James fortune will be of keen
local interest. Concerning this, the
article states:
"The James fortune originally was
made in the copper, silver and gold
mines of the southwest and moth
west. James grandfather, Daniel
lames, helped to make history in
the far west in frontier days. 1t was
in 1928 that Daniel James, associated
with Arson Phelps, started in the
metal business. Five years later the
firm was crippled by the collapse of
a warehouse resulting in the loss of
I nine lives.
%Wlliam E. Dodge, merchant of
New York, was induced to sell his
dry goods business to join James
and Phelps and the business started
under the name of Phelps, Dodge
and company. T wenty years after
the formation of the firm, D. Willis
James, the father of Arthur G
James, became a partner.

arthur c. James, who is now In
his siXtleth year, was born June I,
1857. He was graduated from Am
herst college in 1889, and went to
work as mail clerk for his fathers
company. Twenty years later, when
Phelps Dodge and company was In
corporated, James was elected a
member of the board and a vice
president
James is factor in the control
and operation of about 10000 miles
of railroad, seventh of the grand
total of the country, and more than
the mileage of the Hartman, Hill
and Gould lines combined. 1t is
within his power to regroup the
trunk lines of the northwest ana

tation problems that have perplexed
the government for many years"

remarkably. One dealer in Mid
western city takes diamonds, phono-
graphs, radio sets, furniture or real
estate. Dealers in some Of the farm
ing districts take in produce, horses,
cattle or farm chattels which have any
kind of market. or which can be car
ried along and disposed of at favorable
opportunities. The dealers say people
are too busy to sell their own personal
property, so they are perfectly willing
to let the dealer, If he has the capital,
do that work.
This trend Is meeting opposition
from economists, who see danger in 1t.
Others argue, however. that the
American is a trader from childhood
and that this is not likely to sap his
moral stamina or lead to distress any
more than swapping knives or tops.
