Wagon Road to Black River.
EAGLE CREEK, February Is. 10

EAGLE CREEK, February 10, 1906
Editor Copper Era: Seeing Mr..
Rudd's letter published in the Guar
dian showing the necessity of a
wagon road from Springerville to
some point in the ella valley, and
being well acquainted with the
country through which it would have
to pass, and having looked the
ground over, 1 will say that 1 think
Mr.. Rudd's idea good. But think in
stead of having branch roads to
Metcalf, Morenci and Clifton, make
one road do the whole thing, which
can be done at small cost by begin
ming at Morenci and leading to Met
calf, then use the old Metcalf toll
road for twelve miles, then build
about eight miles of new road con-
Meeting with the road on Eagle creek.
There is very little grading on this
part, the greater part of this dis
lance there are only some rocks to be
thrown out and brush cut away, then
use the Double Circle roundup road
to Black river, which would need
very little work to put it in good re-
pair. From Black river there would
have to be some work done as far as
Paradise Park, about ten miles.
Wagons have been oyer this with
eight loads. From Paradise on the
road is good, it is used for hauling
salt. The entire distance does not
exceed seventy-five miles. With
easy grades a road over this route
will be very easy kept in repair, as it
is all nearly on high ground, and
high water will not effect it. 1 think
that the Apache county people
should build to Black river and then
people from Black river TO
Morenci. This road would give the
Clifton and Morenci people road to
the White and Black mountains, one
of the finest summer res Orts known,
as every one knows that has ever
been there. 1 have no doubt but |
what the people of Clifton and Mo
renci will subscribe literally. 1 know
that the cattle and ranchmen on |
Eagle creek will. If this road was
made it would give resort within
the reach of everyone. If one wanted |
to take his family fora few weeks
putting he would not have to have a
bank roll to do so. A. w.

J. D. and Doc Wilkins, two old time
residents of Clifton, but now of the
Franklin country, spent several days
of the past week here visiting friends.
They were accompanied by their
families. They found Clifton greatly
changed since their last visit. Dur
ing their residence here it was ne
cessary to climb five steps to enter
the ERA office, but now the easiest
way to get IN is to fall in.

Harry Dodge Burned to Death.

On Thursday night of last week a
cabin near the Coronado store on
Coronado mountain, which was occu-
pied by miner named Harry Dodge,
was discovered to be in flames. 1t
was the supposition of those who dis
covered the fire that Mr.. Dodge was
asleep in the cabin, and an effort was
at once made to rescue him if posi-
BILE. After breaking in the door the
bed was pulled out the room and it
was then discoveted that the occu-
pant of the cabin was not in the bed.
By this time the fire had gained such
Roadway that it was impossible to
again enter the cabin, and until the
fire had entirely consume the build
ing it was not positively known
whether or not Mr.. Dodge had lost
his life. The trunk of the body was
then found, both legs and one arm
having been burned off and entirely
consumed by the intense heat. Mr..
Dodge was known as sound sleeper,
and the supposition is that he was
Supplied by the smoke and rolled off
the bed. The origin of the fire is not
known, but it is supposed that Mr..
Dodge left candle burning whenhe
retired, from which the house was
ignited.
Deceased was an Englishman about
ffty-two years of age, and had no
relatives in this seCtson. The re-
mains were buried by Undertaken
Pascoe on the following day.

The Clifton band made its first
public appearance Saturday night
last at the band stand on the tennis
court. The selections were all high
class, and were rendered in such
manner as to lead many to believe
that the band was an old organiza-
ton. A large number of people con-
gregrated to hear the music, and
they were unanimous in apprecia-
ton, and many we'll known musicians
stated that they had never before
known a band to accomplish such
satisfactory results in such a short
time. A. NJ. Whaples, the leader,
as well as all members of the band,
deserve great credit. The band will
have the support of Clifton people,
who are all willing to contribute to-
wards open air concerts at any time
that they may be called upon.

The big shooting match, under the
management of Judge Campbell,
came off at Metcalf Sunday last as
previously advertised. The Major,
of course, was on hand, and at the
first five shots got six birds, which
caused the Judge to add the Major to
his already large black list, which
was headed some weeks ago by DIR.
Burtch. Instead of being a mark of
disrespect to be on the "black list, :"
as is usually the case, it is the highest
possible compliment In this instance
1t is, in fact, a certificate of their
ability with the rifle, and coming
from Judge Campbell, the highest
authority on such matters in Arizona,
it should be considered as a compli-
ment. However, the Major, who is
noted for his extreme and delicate
modesty, attempted to explain how
it "happened" in the last issue of his
interesting newspaper, but Judge
Campbell telephoned the ERA that
sit don't CO." He says it mars the
joy of a shooting match to pay $500
each for turkeys for the Major and
the Doctor to pick them off at % cents
per shot. However, he has decided
to allow them to participate in fu-
ture contests under the following
handicap: the bird to be shot on the
wing at distance of two hundred
and fifty yards, at S1.OO per shot
1t is understood that these conditions
are acceptable. At little rehearsal
held in the Doctors back yard one
day last week empty quart cans
thrown into the air were hit from
two to three times each before they
struck the ground, by both the Doc
tor and the Major. The shooting at
tracted the attention of Joe Cox
and M. H. Kane, who live in the
They brought out
their rifles and each put four bullets
through their cans before they
reached the ground. Mr.. Kane stated
that he was out of practice, having
given up shooting some years ago.
Mr.. Cox stated that he never learned
to shoot, but his brother Billey used
to shoot little. Cox is from Texas
and Kane from Montana.

PROTEST MEETING ON THE
GREEN.

Arrests of Meyer and Haywood De-
nounced by New York Speaker.
Several hundred people gathered on
the Green yesterday afternoon to lis
ten to protest against the authorities
for the arrest OF Meyer and Haywood
Of the Western Federation of Miners
Several speakers took part in the dem
onstration, and condemned strongly the
methods which had been pursued in the
arrest of these men. Rudolph Katz of
New York was the principal speaker
He dwelt principally on the power the
various trusts exerted, claiming that
they influenced the government and
those in state and city legislatures, and
to force the workingmen to the wall by
using all the efforts in their power to
crush labor organizations. This, he
claimed was at the root of the arrest
of the officers of the Western Fedora
ton of Miners, whom he claimed had
no hand in the murder for which they
had been arrested, and that the whole
scheme of the trusts was an attempt to
lay a crime on the shoulders of the
workingmen's organizations, which, he
claimed should be laid to the charge
of the trusts.
