INTRODUCTORY HE appearance of this publication is simply following out a policy adopted by this C paper years ago. It is for the purpose of making known, without the limits of Gra- ham county, the industrial and social conditions within our borders to attract home- seekers and those who may desire to invest in the further development of our mineral and agricultural resources. We adopt the present form because of its convenience for mailing to the outside world. This paper is the pioneer in this class of work in this Ter- ritory and in August, 1897, issued an edition and in January, 1900, sent out another which attracted favorable comment from all readers and resulted in making Graham County better known to the outside world than ever before. A newspaper from week to week publishes a vast amount of information concerning the advantages and progress of its section of the country, but special editions in which this knowledge is systematized, is the best form of publicity to catch the eye of the stranger. It is conceded by all who are acquainted with the resources of Graham County that it is one of the best sub-divisions of the Territory; its growth has been steady and per- manent and there is not a more prosperous or contented people, as a whole in the west. The County possesses untold wealth in the several mineral districts and the mining industry was never more active. The Gila Valley is unequalled in the arid region as an agricultural section and the conditions here are most favorable to the farmer—wonderful fertile land, an abundant supply of water for irrigation, and a home market unequalled in the southwest. We shall avoid any exaggeration in the preparation of statistical and descriptive matter in this edition. Facts will be plainly stated and comparisons shall not be overdrawn. Rich in productive lands, rich in mines, rich in timber, in grazing pas- ture, in purest air and perpetual sunshine, Graham ,Gounty has much to attract the home-seekers and capitalists. Industry, accompanied by frugal habits, is a guarantee of success here.
