Site gorier Utits, ISSUED WEEKLY AT NOG ALES, AIUZONA, BY JULY 3, 1897. ORGANIZE A BOARD OF TRADE The effect of the change of owner ship of the Sonora Railway upon the business of Nogales is a subject of speculation among our merchants. The consensus of opinion is that it will be Leneficial for the following reasons: The Southern Pacific Company has unlimited resources, is controled by able men, and while its policy may be selfish, its service is generally effi.-ient. Every department of the road will be improved or renovated, to the ad van t age of travelers and shippers; it will become an integral part of a great con tinental system with proportional rates of freights, and fares, and cease Co conduct a predatory warfare against foreign lines. Of course of the S P. Co. may bring some pressure to bear On our merchants to force them into the markets it controls, but the ques tion of market is not material if other things are equal The merchant is most interested in the volume of his trade and the profit in it. It is prob able that our merchants will be re stricted to certain territory and will not be permitted to ship to Tucson, er Yuma, but in the other hand they will be maintained in their own domain against all cowpe'-ition. We do not believe that the S. P. Co. will make Gnaymas a distributing point for the reason that it is not to their interest to do so. There is no doubt a line of Steamers will be put on to handle the coffee trade of Central American through Guaymas, and the tea trade of the Orient, but these are transconti nental matters and do not directly affect us. The shops will certainly be removed from Guaymas to this point, as this is an economical necessity. If the Sonora coal-fields are as good as represented, the S. P. Co. will take an active interest in their development, and this consideration opens up a pleasant vista of manufacturing possi bilities. On the whele, we see in the change nothing to decrease our present grow ing trade and much to encourage us to hope for a brighter future for it. The S. P. Co. U, however, a business con cern, and it behoves our people to pre pare to deal with it as such. In order to this the merchants of Nogales should take immediate steps to organize a strong Chamber of Commerce for the proper consideration of matters affect ing our trade interests. One of the saddest accidents which has happened in this country was the killing of young George Webb last Monday by a premature blast. George was a bright boy and the pride of his parents hearts. He was just border ing on manhood and had a bright future before him. The young man had taken an active part in the affairs of life from an early age. He was a clerk in the U. S. custo.u house at 16, and when he was 17 J ears old he was editor and publisher of the Border Vidette, which paper he sold to engage in mining with his father in Sonora, having been ferems.n in the Favoiita mine, for a year where he lost his life. George was a favorite with all who knew him and his tragic death has cast a gloom over this community. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Webb in this territory join the Vidette in extending sincere sympathy to the be reaved parents and relatives iu this, their hour of affliction. Elsewhere wo f;ive our re.vders an extract from the work on the History and Resources of Southern Arizona now being prepared by Mr. Hi'zinger, which gives aoine idea of the material gathered fioiu interviews with prom inent people. This one extract is alone worth the price of the volume, which we are assured, will be full of just &uj1i matter, brightened with reminiscenses of early days from the lips of men who havo helped t build up Arizoui. The business men of Nogales should by all means organize a board of trade. The town is of enough importance now to have a body to repiesent her bus iness interests. Some of Mclvinle's Arizona ap pointments will help tlect the demo cratic ticLet next election. So Richard E. Sloaxe "got there" as judge of the northern district. Mark Hanna and the trusts have got the Republican party by the tail with a downhill pull. SONORA NEWS. dome Interesting: Items From La Colorado. Wm. Brown, foreman of the Colo ratio mill, sports the nnest na in the camp. Rumors are afloat to the effect that Mr. W. Seeker and Miss Stuart are soon to be one. The Colorado mill shut down Saturday morniHs owrtinz to the scarcity of water. They talk alout the heat; but think of 110 degrees and no shade and be hold the sign '"Keep off the grass." Naril Paderas happened to be one of the lucky ones who bought tickets in the lottery and drew $5000. A good way to make money. Tommy S. we believe has lcen try ins to quit tne batcneior s ciud. That is right Tommy, stay by Miss Mill and you are all o. k. John Kess. who met with an acci dent in the Creston mines, some weeks ago, has been confined to his bed at the hospital ever since, but is slowly recovering. Ic is rumored that a change will be made in the company store at La Colorado in which the Exploration compamy will take charge. We hope they will veto Mr. Dempsey's racket in short order. Mr. A. H. Leavett, the watch maker, is doing a rushing business in the repairing line. He has located in the same building with J. P. Furlong in La Colorado. Now is your time to get your watch overhauled. The Hotel Grand Central is now vacant and is offered for rent by C. C. Rountree. Mr. Carnbastone, its former proprietor, moved to Her mosillo this week. We expect that C. Wadlough will rent it and move from Pretas. The Ainarillas mine is now run chiefly by Yaquis. The Americans lost their best friend when M. O. Mahon resigned. Hw-had full- eharge made a grand success. - - We hope that a little experience will teach this company that well-paid, responsible men are the cheapest in the end. At noon on June 27, a fire broke out in a wood pile just south of Torres and near the round house. When discovered it was beyond control and soon the whole pile was on fire which was estimated to be about 5.000 cords. Mr. Tapia owned the wood and had no insurance. It will be a total loss to him. It is claimed that a Mexican tramp set it on fire by cooking his grub close by. W. Mede, F. Jocques and Gray- more returned from a lou- and di Hi- cult trip whi.-h they made for the purpose of prospecting the Deloros mine in Chihuahua, which they re port favorably. This claim was worked a number of years ago by a man named J. Dotson, who put wp a 20-stamp mill and and hoist but on account of sickness was compelled to abandon it. Mr. Gray more will leave here in a few days well equipped to start ip. They have other very valuable claims located oh the Yaqui river which they will develop at once. JtMMIE. A TltAUlC DiSATH. tteorsre tlcbb is Killed by a Blast. George W. Webb, the eldest sen of Mr. and Mrs. Sam F. Webb, was killed last Monday at the Favoiita mine in Sonora, forty miles from No gales, by a premature discharge of a blast. Ic was at noon and the men had loaded live holes to be fired as they went out for lunch. George went down to help set off the shots. He had lighted two and was ILhtincr the third when the first cue went oil throwing a large quantity of rock into his face and breast. Chapo, a Mexican miner, who had attempted to help lit in but let his t audio go out was net hurt as he had moved about ten net down the tunnel in which the ac idtnt occurred. Georgo was knocked down but was not entirely insensible. The men with the wouiidi-d hoy'- brothers, Sam and Morp', secured a quilt and cot and car ried h m out to the surface, where they bJiiiiuiatered to his sufferings as be t they could with their limited means. His sufferings were terrible. but he never lost consciousness until he died the same evening at 9:30 o'clock. Alorgen Webb was sent immediately after the accident, to No'gales for the doctor and to notify the parents, Mr. and Mrs. Webb with Dr. Chenoweth, started as soon as they received the news, but they were met eight miles from the mine by courier with the sad news that the boy was dead. Arriving at the Mine they made a Ixyt and started to town with tke body. The Mexican miners went ahead of the wagon and carried lanters to light the way as the. night was dark and tne road rough. They walked far miles in this manner silent and sad. The body had lain from Monday night till Wednesday evening and had it not been for the thoughtfulness of little Sammy Webb, to keep it wet with lime water they would hare bad to bury him at the mine. By travel ing all night, they were enabled to reach Novates iu time to have . the funeral Wednesday evening at 6 o'clock. The funeral was from the family residence on Crawford avenue and a large number of friends and acquaintances were present. The Workmen and Knights of Pythias of which Mr. Sam Webb is a member, both turned out. Funeral servises were had at the house by Rev S. V. Dilley. Ihe (Grandest Kemedy. Mr. R. li. G reeve, merchant, of Chilhowhie, Va., certifies that he had consumption; was given up to die, sought all medical treatment that money would procure; tried all cough remedies he could hear of, but got no relief; spent many nights setting up in a chair; was induced to try Dr. King's New Discovery, and was cured by use of two bottles.

S TebLets, vice-president and general manager of tke Duquesne Mining fc Reduction Co., is in the city. He reports works at the mines progressing iu a most satisfactory manner. Bi j Ijodies of ore are opened up sufficient to justify the belief that the company have a large and very valuable property. The grade of the ore is not high, but can be worked on the ground at a fair pro 'it. Some 250 tons of the ore has been shipped to Pittsburg, Pa., for treatment. The working of this ore will determine largely tde character of the works that will lie placed at the mine.
