BISBEE. Pop (Bisbee and surrounding suburbs) 15,000. Cochise county. Altitude 5,300 feet. A prosperous bustling American city with one of the most equable climates of any city in the state, on the E P & S W R R 25 miles s e of Tombstone the county seat and 17 n of the Mexican border line. It is centrally located at the head of Mule Gulch extending into two other canyons, the residence district climbing the surrounding mountain side in terraces resembling more a Swiss Community. Bisbee and its surrounding suburbs within an area of 3 miles comprise the Warren District, which leads all other sections of Arizona in the production of copper and all other districts in the state in mineral production, yet its mining resources have not become fully developed or determined, all this district being connected by an electric street railway. Bisbee has handsome churches of all denominations, a Y M C A with large membership, an academy for girls, fine school buildings with one of the best school systems in Arizona, a country club with club house, tennis courts and golf links; lodges of all the leading secret organizations, the Elks having a home costing $40,000, the Knights of Columbus and Moose also own homes of their own, a public library and reading room, excellent water supply, good sewerage system, gas and electric light plants electric street railway, 3 banks, 5 hotels, 2 theaters, 2 hospitals, fine stores and well stocked shops. The Commercial Club was organized in the spring of 1912 and 3 months later had a membership of 300 and it has already accomplished many important results. A daily newspaper the Review and a weekly the El Latigo are published.
