Letter from W. W. Bass to Carl Hayden requesting the boundaries of the park be reconsidered as a large portion of the land is suitable for mining and farming.
Letter from Carl Hayden to W. W. Bass concerning the passing of the national park bill. Hayden states that he will try to make the bill as advantageous to Arizona miners and farmers as possible, but the land will either remain as a national monument or become a national park.

Amendments to the bill establishing the Grand Canyon a National Monument. Circa 1908.
No one can be in this office and do it alone. I asked an extraordinary group of people to join me in this mission of recovery. They left their good paying jobs and solid careers, and went to work with me, to right the great ship of Arizona. I will always be grateful for their service and sacrifice on behalf of the people of Arizona. And, so, our work began.
One reason life is such a delightful adventure is that we never know exactly what it will bring. No one ever knew it would bring me here. But one thing is certain: there’s no place I would rather be. Of course this turn of events has not been cause for universal celebration. In some quarters this inauguration feels a good deal
more like an interruption. And in a few ways -- good ways, we can hope -- it will be. But I pledge today to be a governor for all of Arizona, and to lead our state to better times. Together, we will do what we have to do, without pettiness or melodrama or misplaced regard to party, and we will succeed.
To facilitate development of the Environmental Impact Statement which must accompany the Section 10 multi-species conservation proposal, a series of issue papers were prepared. In Pima County, ranching is uniquely able to preserve the integrity of vast tracts of connected and unfragmented open space and wildlife habitat. This study reviews the effect of five alternative permit strategies on the County's ability to preserve unfragmented landscapes through conserving ranch lands.
