6 From Mines and Oil Fields ARIZONANS ORGANIZE TO DEVELOP NEW OIL FIELD Indications First Found by Rail road Years Ago Attract Eager Prospectors GLOBE, Ariz., July 20.—Specimens of oil-bearing rock, which exports pro nounce to be among the best ever found in Arizonn, aw being exhibited here by T. D. Morris of Safford, Who Is orgiinizinK a stock company to de velop the country in which the oil )icaring rock was discovered. The location of the district Which is to be developed has not been divulged by Mr. Morris, except that it is in Western Arizona. At the same time, the location of the district is said to be accessible, and on the strength of the showing already made, he has in terested a considerable amount of local capital In the new company. The oil-bearing rock WM discovered by Hob Daniels, who has had much experience In oil prospecting. Springs Which showed traces of oil on their waters flr«i attracted bis attention. Later outcropplngs of oil-bearing rock were discovered, along with other sur face Indications which point to the existence of oil in large quantities. Some twenty-five years ago the Southern Pacific company sunk a well mar the point where the apparent oil strike has been made. The well was sunk for water, not oil, as at that time oil was not used for fuel in such quan tities as at the present time. When oil sands were tapped in drilling the well officials of the company were very much disgusted. They attempted to drill through and case off the oil wands, but losing a string of tools in the well they abandoned the hole, and its ex istence was ultimately forgotten, as the slight excitement at the time of the discovery soon subsided. Mr. Morris is an expert in oil de velopment, although he has lost a for tune boring for oil In the Gila valley district. He is confident that the new found district will develop into a pay ing property, and from the enthusiasm With winch his proposition has been received here he will have little diffi culty in financing a company to de velop the property. COPPER QUEEN BUYS THE MAVERICK GROUP FLORENCE, Ariz., July 20.—George Lobb and Eugene Wuodhury were here Saturday, signing up an option on their Maverick copper group to the ('upper Queen company of Blsbee.

Under the terms of the option the Copper Queen company will sink two large prospect shafts and do a large amount of crosicuttlng and drifting. If this work confirms the beliefs of tli" engineers, the company will pay Lobb & Woodbury $100,000 fur the property in three installments. The first payment will be $10,000. the second I ami the third $70,000. COPPER QUEEN MANAGERS SAMPLE WOLCOTT STRIKE COUHTLAND, Ariz..

GOLDFIELD STRIVES TO MEET WATER SHORTAGE Consolidated Constructs Pipe Lines and Ditchgs as Aux iliary—Drought Costly GOL.DFIELD, New. July 20.—Efforts to quickly and thoroughly overcome the water shortage are being; made for the several mills of the district, and the drouth will not be permitted to assume a very serious phase in mill-. Ing circles. Although the Consolidated has thirty stamps tied up at present by lack of water, this matter will be remedied within the next ten days, ac cording to J. H. Mackenzie, who is now In charge of the Consolidated proper ties during the absence of General Manager Flnlay on a vacation. A pipe line is now being laid from the mines l'> the mill, via the ditch which has been dug across the saddle of Colum bla mountain, where the big Storage t;mks are to be established for lire protection and an emergency water supply. It will not require a great deal of pumping to carry the water over the ridge, because the siphon end or suc tion from the ridge down to the mill will largely overcome, the resistance up the other side. This pipe line will be laid before the tanks are completed, and the line will be in operation within about ten days. The mill Is drawing about 40,000 gal lons a day from Alkali Springs and can also develop about 100,000 gallons a day from the veil that h\s been funk Just below the big tailings pond. Besides this there Is a lame suppl) obtainable from the old Five Friends' leising shaft, which is on the Last Chance claim of the Consolidated es tate. This Is one of the strongest water courses ever developed in the Gold field district, and Is caused by the compound fault made by the Columbia Mountain fault and the large fault that follows the draw between thi south end of Columbia mountain and the old Consolidater Red Top lease. This water is uiusually pure and well suit* d to milling purposes. For the time being this has been loaned to the Combination Fraction for its mill, as the Consolidated will probably be able to get along without it. NKVTKAI.IZE DECIiKASE It is believed that the present efforts for an auxiliary supply will fully oxer come the shortage now being ex perienced by the water company, but if the sky refuses to give forth some good rains in the near future it may only neutralize the steady decrease In the water company's supply. Should tins prove to he the case, further ex tension Of the auxiliary system will be made until the Consolidated will be able to run at full capacity Independent of the water company. Outside of a tem porary inconvenience to the mills which have been depending almost en tirely on the water company supply, the shortage has no serious phase so far as mining and milling operations are concerned in the camp. The Florence has been able tn keep its forty stamps going by availing it self of water from neighboring 1 shafts, and will be able to continue without Interruption, With the water that has been placed at the disposal of the Combination Fraction from the Five Friends shaft the Fraction will soon be again In good shape for water for milling purposes, It is ovi r six months during whicli not a drop of precipitation has been recorded, There is no Immediate causi for alarm among residents for lack of water for domestic purposes, but if the drouth continues lawns and gardens will suffer and wither. The diminished supply and consign ment pressure of the water company Will in nowise effect the eflh lency of the fire protection as the big tank on the malapai is full of overflowing con stantly and holds 170,000 gallons. The wells f the focal water venders are all hoi,ling out and no appreciable de crease of supply Is noticeable. The railroad companies have their pumping plants all along the various lin"s and state that their tanks are well filled. Officials of the L. V. & T. state that in case the situation should become alarming tin ir road is prepared to haul water from lionnie Clare by the train load from their big well at that place, As it Is the railroad supplies water to Cuprite and all surrounding territory. LEWISSOHNS MAKE LAST PAYMENT ON THE PLANT PHESCOTT, Ariz., July 20.—The final payment on the purchase price of the Planet mine, in the Bill Williams river region, has been made to the stock holders of the old company by the Lewissohns of New York. The pay ment is said to have followed the dis covery of rich bodies of sulphide ores in the property i>y churn drills. It Is given out that the richest ore ever found In the mine' was proved by the drills at a depth of 660 feet, Na tive copper was encountered in other churn drill holes, The main shaft is 600 feet d( ep. Nearly 2000 feet of drifts and cross from the lower level expose large ore bodies. An extensive plan of de velopment Is now under consideration, and it i.s expected that T. A. Varden, superintendent, will receive orders from .New York at an early day to ln crease the force and sink the main Bhaft to greater depth. It is also rumored the Arizona & Swansea railroad, now terminating at Swansea, will be built to Planet, and that the work will be started early in the fall. PRODUCERS COMPLETES A TANK EVERY THREE DAYS The Producers' Tranjportatlon com pany is completing steel tanks at the rate Of one every thr^e. days, .mil work Is being rushed dn the two 1, --i p ooo barrel concrete reservoirs at Ban I.ills Oblspo. The first of these will be completed in about ninety days. The line to the coast «-iil carry about twice as much oil ai the company is marketing' from Pori Harford, and the surplus will be stored In the tank and concrete reser voirs al tidewater. Tn the meantime a. committee of the Independent agency i S working on a plan to secure advance of money from on oil in storage. It is thought by the time the first reservoir is com pleted arrangements for the loans will have been made and the situation greatly relieved.

SALOON FEES NO RETURN FOR EVIL CAUSED-WATKINS President of Asbury College As serts Liquor Traffic Baneful "It is not what Roosevelt or any one else thinks about the liquor question. It la what we think about the saloons In Los Angeles that shoulil engage our special attention. If we represent the moral aspects of our great city, wa I should stand by Its mornls and best in- j terests." These were the expressions of A. 8. Watklns, candidate, for vice president on the Prohibition ticket at the last election, and president of Asbury eol lese or Kentucky, ' yesterday noon tit the Federation club. His subject was "The Case Against Liquor." He Bold, in part: "As for the saloon, It is a losinp ■ proposition all around. No matter how | much money It furnishes the city treas- I ury, there Is a reactive measure that works a' hardship from the BOUrCe It comes. When you attempt to shoulder \ too much, even on the saloon, it is like • trying to pile up n part of the ocean I to utilize it. Many citizens who do not drink are compelled to pay high taxes on the principle that when one loses another has to pay the loss. The saloon ruins more than it makes. You. as an organisation, should step higher than the financial situation of" the liquor question. "The chun li Is in great danger of the contaminating Influences of valoons. Every one knows the bad Influences of the saloojig against religious and spirit ual work. If we get the moral at mosphere right, it Is much cis cr to move on an elevated plane. The world is looking in this direction for the"at mosphere that Is destined to make Greater Los Angeles attractive to its almost unlimited success."

SOCIALIST WOMEN ASSERT MEDICAL TRUST PLANNED Claim Gills Before Congress Anent Hygiene Permit Monopoly Bills now pending in congreu relat ing to a department of publi" health were dtlCUHed yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Mnry B. Thompson at a meeting of tlie Women's Socialist union. In the general discussion which followed, the attitude of the speaker in opposition to the bills was heartily indorsed and on motion she was requested to write ar ticles for the papers of the Socialist press calling attention to the pernicious character of the bills. Mrs. Thompson emphasized the fact that the loose construction of the pro visions of th«se bills permitted the abuse of power and she claimed that such legislation would result in a medi cal trust rather than hygienic and sanitary progress. She stated that the American Medical association Is the association of allopathic school and the power behind these bills, and claimed that the active opposition from all other schools was due to the fact that they realized from long experi ence that the American Medical nsao ciation was seeking, under the guise of public welfare, to drive all competitors from the Held, leaving the allopuths In absolute control. The speaker believed that banltary and hygienic measures should be in dorsed und promoted but that they should not be given into the control of self seeking interests. ■ «-«-» — AimrhlM Hiirlngs Radio active hot mineral water cures stomach troubles.
