The bud roads OF Iowa have been made the
subject of report to the secretary of ngri-
culture by General Roy Stone, director Of
the bureau OF road Inquiry of tho agricul-
tural department. He reports that while
lown leads nll other states In tonnage OF
agricultural products. the cost Of transport.
Ing her crops by wagon has reached the
maximum. owing to the bad condition of the
public roads. so that he agricultural output
of 2lWO.0O0 tons IL hauled at an average
cost of S1.31 n ton. The Iowa farmer pays
on I'M average "A cents ton mile but the
cost OF hauling on good roads is from TO III
cents. The present conditions are largely
caused. he says. by the neglect of the gov
ernmcnt to lay out roads In advance of the
settlement Of the country.
General Stone estimates that with rail-
read cooperation narrow stone roads or
gravel roads surfaced with stone can be
built generally throughout the. stnte at II
cost of from $500 to 81, 200 n mile where no
heavy grading Is required, and suggests that
the cost can be greatly reduced by the en-
ploymeht of convict labor, as Is done In 9th

Mining Capitalists.

No doubt but what Frank Guerra had the honor this week of escorting to the Gleason Bonanza in the $. H. mountains one of the most prominent parties of mining men and capitalists that has ever before met in Yuma to investigate our mineral wealth.
 The party was composed of Jesse B. Grant, John H. Gray, Dr. Under wood and Mayor Carlson of San Diego, c. D. Lane, principal owner of the famous La Fortuna mine situated 2S miles southeast of this city, MT. Allen, at one time manager of the Harqua Hala bonanza in this county, both gentlemen live in San Francisco; Fred Martin assistont foreman of the La Fortuna mine and Prof. Church of Tombstone.
 The party returned by Fridays ex- press with the exception of Gray and Underwood who are now visiting the Mohawk valley. Each and all are loud in their praise of the new find and have no hesitancy in saying it is the richest prospect ever before seen by them.
 The shaft is now down about eight feet and the ore continues to hold it's wonderful richness.
