 .Tortilla Flat-The splendid buildings and equipment at this place are to be turned into a stage station about the first of the year. It is known as the AdOr place and will be in charge of Jack Frazier, the mayor of Fish Creek W. A. Parish who has been in charge of a small force of men at Mormon Flat has moved to Roosevelt where he will commence work on the Tonto Highline road. The present road which is about twelve miles in length will be submerged when the water gets in the reservoir, hence the necessity of build ing a road to Roosevelt higher up in the mountains. IL is estimated that a considerable length of time will be con- stunned in the operation as the road is through a very rough country and con- siderable blasting will be necessary. It is said that Weatherstone's force will be moved from Ash Creek to the Tonto Highline road building in the early spring.

MESA CONTESTANT THE VICTOR.

MESA CONTESTANT THE VICTOR.
 Mesa is certainly proud of the fact that one of her favorites has won out in The Republican contest, and they are proud that the honor has fallen on Eva Young. a girl who has been a hard worker throughout the struggle for votes. and one who is deserving, and one who has the ability to receive the education which is assured her When the votes wer being counted Sunday and the credits being figured up a crowd collected around the judges as eager to learn the returns as if it had been a territorial election. While it was a foregone conclusion that Miss Young had a good chance to win, yet her success was not assured until Sat urday when the votes began coming in thick and fast until evening when il was discovered that she had doubled her entire credit given in at previous stages during the contest. The young lady is proud of the 1act that she has won such a splendid veictory, but she can be no prouder of the fact than are the residents of this place that the honors have been won by a resident of Mesa. u

van County Sunday School Com.
mittee, which consists Of the officers

nize Bible Study. 5. That they
