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. The
option runs for one year and gives the
Copper Queen company the privilege of
thoroughly exploiting the property be
fore making payments thereon.
W, F- Staunton, who examined the
property some time ago, called the at
tentlon Of the Copper Queen people to
it. and they had it thoroughly ex
iiiniricil by two of their own field en
gineers, Grebe and Wnndrow, whose
reports were exceedingly favorable.
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.

COUHTLAND, Ariz.. July 20.—The
property of Cummingg anil Wolcott, on
which a strike of gold was made h'.st

The Copper Queen company had some
men tlfere who took out thirty-five
sacks of the ore and shipped it to
Douglas smelter, they also taking a
sample of the entire vein.
An option is held on this property by

from the samples and ore taken by tin-
Copper Queen company will determine
them in either taking the option "ft'

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. ■
