CONDITION
OF
IN THE
Review of the Growth of the City the Past Few
Months What Is Being Done What
Business .Men Say.
There has been some complaint of
late that business has beeu a little
dull in Prescott and some have oven
ventured the assertion that the city
was threatened with a .-et back, from
a business standpoint, or had reached
the limits of its growth. There are
always a few pessimistic individuals for rental purposes,
in every community who think the In regard to the condition of busi
place is bouud to go to the dogs, and ness in the city since the first of Jan
Prescott is no exception to the rule, uary. a number of the leading busi
for a few people have been saying for ness men were questioned and their
the past twenty years that the city own words will indicate what the con
could not grow any more and property i dition has been and wnat they expect
values were bound to decrease In ' in the future.
spite of these predictions the city has A. Blumberg, of the New York

and which can be verified by investi- j H. D. Aitken. secretary of the

I of the city than that furnished by the
telephone exchange. Manager Wright,

have been unable to do so. During
the past year nearly 200 new phones
have been put in and fully that many
more are expected to be placed in the
I next twelve mouths.
Then comes the testimony from the
postofflee. Postmaster Smith reports
a very marked increase in the busi-
ness of the office during the past year
aud every mouth adds to the volume.
Official reports show a greater per
ceutage of gain in the Prescott post
office than any other postotflce of
any size in the territory.
An inquiry into the amount of bus
iness beiug transacted by the railroad
company brought forth the informa
tion that business was never better,
and tbat the company is constantly
adding to their force of men and
rolling stock in order to handle the
business. One of the employes of the
road, when asked regarding the vol
ume of freight being hauded. said it
did not look like business was falling
off very had, wheu fifteen cars of local
freight bad been received Thursday for
Prescott merchants, seven of whieh
were for one firm, the B. -B Co.
A glance at the latest reports of the
local hanks show the amount of money
ou hand to be greater than ever be- been fully as good and possibly a lit
fore, and as a further evidence of the tie better than last year, notwitb
confidence that is displayed by men standing the fact that there was great

only recently completed and occupied

of which ran up into the thousands
several notches. If these gentlemen
did not know that the future outlook I
for the city was good they would uot
have put ?10,000 or J12.000 each into
residence property.
Another strong indication of the
growth that is expected of the city is
the fact that men of means and good ,
sound business judgment are making
preparations and in fact have started
the actual work of putting in an
electric street railway system, which
will mean an expenditure of hundreds
of thousands of dollars before its com-
, ...
Among the public, improvements
... . . i j
which are now being made and which
are contemplated is the extension of
the water aud sewer systems, for
which our pecple have recently voted
to issue 8100,000 in bonds, and on
which work will soon be commenced.
Also the maguificieut new 340,000
school building which is now uearing
completion, aud which will lie second
to no school building of its size in
the west. In this connection it might !
be mentioned that only a few days i
ago the property owners and tax pay j
ers of the city voted almost unani- j
mously for the establishment of an up i
to date high school.
Work is now progressing nicely on ;
the new pubile library buildiug. This
building will cost iu the ueigbtiorbood
of 99,000 when completed, and will be
a handsome and useful structure.
In the way of private building aud
improvements may lie cited the fol
lowing, which does not indicate that
the improvements are at a standstill
in Prescott:
John Uundall is just beginning the
erection of a 910,000 business block
on north Cortez street.
A. Blumberg is excavating for a
spudid business block on north Cor
tez street.
A. J. Head is just completing the
erection of a three story business
block, the lower story of which is oc
cupied by a wholesale grocery firm
and the two upper stories will be fit
ted up as lodging rooms. Mr. Head
is now in Los Angeles to make ar
rangements for the moving of his res
idence building to Montezuma street
and as soon as that is out of the way
he will put up another large brick
bu.-iness block between the postotflce :
aud his new building. ;
F. M. Murphy is now rushing work.
ou the magnificent new club building
on the corner of Marina autl ourley ,

Kobert Morrison, who ouly last year 1

is now putting up another maguificeut
residence -property just across Ma-j

business and said the business bad
made a decided gain over the same
period of last year and was steadily

At Hotel Burke business was report-
decidedly heavier this year than

The firms handling groceries and
mining supplies report a falling off of
