'. The Last Chance mine in the
Grand Canyon is becoming a won
der among ore producers. Hereto
fore about sixty pack animals have
been engaged in carrying ore to the
surface and this week the number
was doubled. From three to four
carloads of copper ore, averaging
from $50 to $80 per ton, will be
shipped to the smelter at El Paso
each week and the reader can eas
ily figure the proceeds from this
property.
Messrs. Barbour and Page have
Ijonded the Hance-Ashurst claim
in the canyon, four miles west of
the Last Chance, and will put a
force of men at work developing it.
Mr. Barbour returned last week
from El Paso where he had been
making arrangements for ore ship
ments and left for the canyon Mon
day evening. The prospects are
looking exceedingly bright for this
section just now.
Mr. Geo. W. Kexxey, who con
ducts the livery business in the
Yosemite valley, was a visitor at
the Grand Canyon this week: Dur
ing his brief stay in town he was a
pleasant caller at this office. He
liad often heard of the great gorge,
und the trip being suggested to him
by Santa Fe officials, he availed
himself of the opportunity to make
the trip. He says they have had a
very good tourist trade there this
year, somewhere over 5,000 people
liaving visited the valley, all of
whom either had been or were go
ing to the Grand Canyon. The
season closes there about the first
of November and no one visits the
valley during the winter months.
It is unlike the canyon in this' re
spect as here we have an open
season the year round. He feels
that after he has visited the canyon
he will be able to do much for this
section by speaking a good word to
the tourists.
The Arizona papers, as a rule
are just now full of life two col
umns of "statehood," three columns
of cow ads, and the rest of the
whole shooting match liver pills
and articles of incorporation.
idette. . .
Yes, and it's too bad. Even the
Vidette has its share. There are a
few exceptions, though, and the
News leads the list, as not a medi
cine local appears in its columns.
Mr. E. J. Fuller, assistant sup
erintendent of the railway mail
service, was a visitor in the city
last Monday. His business here
was in connection with the depart
ment's plans to do away with the
middle man in the letting of con
tracts for carrying mail on star
routes; the idea being to advertise
for bids, locally, thus giving home
people the benefits. Read the no
tice on first page.
Darby A. Day, representing the
Arizona branch of the Mutual Life
Insurance company, with head
quarters at Phoenix, was looking
up business in his lin,e in town this
