BUSINESS MEN DISCUSS
GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT

At the meeting Of the Florence
Business Mems association last night
the matter Of better roads connecting
with the coal camps and the town Of
Portland was discussed at length and
the consensus of opinion was that the
roads should be fixed and an effort
made to bring more suburban trade to
the city.
In order to facilitate the matter of
better roads the members Of the asso
citation as a whole appointed them
selves AZ boosting comm, ttee to try
to accomplish something looking to
this end. Between now and the time
for the next meeting the matter of So
curing convicts to do the work will
be thoroughly inquired into. There
is state law whereby any munici-
pality In this state can secure the
services Of the convicts for public
work II the expenses Of the convicts
and the guards are paid. Tho plan
is to have the convicts work on the
roads and put them in good shape
between now and spring.
The association is on the right
track In this regard and no time
should be lost in having the roads
put in good travelling repair. As yet

Good roads leading to any town is

Douglas. The citizens of the Shelter city are alive to the situation, how ever, and have expressed their send- ments in a not uncertain manner-on Friday a mass meeting was held at which strong resolutions were adopt. ed against the threatened evil and signed by over hundred of the lead ing business men, only six refusing to pledge themselves to oppose the es- tablishment of union by all means within their power.
 The anarchistic aggregatiol's chances of success are even less at Douglas than they were at Bisbee, but while the trouble lasts its emis- saries will draw their usual pay while enjoying to the utmost any disorder and disturbance to present prosper ous conditions they may be able to cause.-Nogales Daily Times.

 Old persons minds are inclined to be retrospective and dwell habitually upon reminiscent details of their past experiences. The young mind en- pioys itself in building air castles and conjuring up future glory and wealth for themselves, which sadly gang agley." The old man will buttonhole you with his thumb and regale you for hours rehearsing the incsdents and exploits of his eventful life, un- til you are speIlbound with his gar rulous mazes of disjointed wonders of narration and exploits
 But it sometimes happens that an old-timer falls upon events and char aeters that are historical: though this is rare in this advanced time of general acquaintance with human af- fairs and characters which the facil- ities of modern printing have brought to the world So, in this effort to write something that may be of in terest to the reader, as an old man. will endeavor to avoid some of his folIies, as I may be able so to do.
 In 1878 was engaged in rowing over Arizona as a prospector for pre- cious metals. I often visited Phoe- nix to obtain supplies, and one time when I was here I met a prospector, Frencbman, whose name was Bal ticue, or something like it. He came to me with a story about having found some wonderful relics in an old ruined primitive town which he had dag into. The story he told me was about as follows:
 He was camping at the old ruins, and. in walking through them, he no- ticed about six feet of a stone wall standing, built of rough stones. In the center of the wall there was smooth-faced stone, on which was outlined the rude figure of a man pointing with forefinger downward At the feet of this figure were traced what seemed to represent tn form of tn large blacS toads. which are com mon about desert springs in Arizo- na. There were three of these fig ures. Above the mans head had been on the stone spiral line. Such a spiral line win be seen in Arizona in many places. Il have often noticed it. and dong since concluded that it was a primitive Indian mark. mean ing something.

The men who obeyed the strike or der have left Bisbee.
 Other men have arrived in Bisbee and accepted the places made vacant by the strikers.
 The men now at work or who may desire to come later are entitled to be protected from the everlasting nag ging imporun;ties of the union pick cts.
 Not only are these union pickets and walking delegates interfering with the business and profits of the railroad company. but they are like wise interfering with business and profits of every merchant in Bisbee, Lowell and Douglas. Certainly there is law for the protection of the pros perity of a community of twenty thousand people against an attack of twenty or thirty men to destroy that prosperity and it is to be hoped that the injunction suit will effectually put an end to the trouble breeders and prosperity stranglers.
 It is high time the meddlesome pickets were put out of business so that men may travel to Bisbee with out annoyance or interference.

HOUSE IF PLENTY
 VICTIM OF THIEVES
Even Fake JeyeIy Was h. CIuded in Big List of
 Stolen Property.

PHOENIX, Ariz., July 15.-Thomas Lawson must now answer to a charge of robbing the house of Plenty-C. R. Plenty-just north of the Home bak- cry, Of various articles, ranging from "phoney" jewelry to silk suit.
 Plenty and his wife are negroes, employed in the dining room of the Gold hotel. Lawson and the lady who passes for his wife are of different na- tionalities; he is a half-breed Chero- kee Indian, while she is a Mexican. Lawson used to be a booster before gambling went out of fashion in Phoe- nix, but since that time he has not been doing anything, that is, until he took to robbery to help out his f. nances.
 Lawson evidently knew the habits of Plenty and his wife and. entered the dwelling during their absence on two different occasions. But the sec ond time Plenty came home unex- pectedly. Lawson ran into his arms and Plenty held him until Marshal Moore and Officer Tiptou came along.
 Plenty missed some of his goods last night but did not report the mat ter to the police. This morning when be captured the thief he captured him wsth the goods on him. There is a strong case against Lawson. so strong that he will probably not try to deny the crime.
 Later in the day Marshal Moore went down to the home of Lawson and Unearthed a lot of goods he had carried away from Plenty's on his first visit In the bundle brought to Justice Johnstone's office afterward were a guitar, lddy's silk suit, a silver watch, two shirts, two mems collars, two ladies' collars, a pair of ladies' gloves, a comb and brush and quantity of cheap jewelry. The lat ter the woman did her best to conceal from the officers gaze. She also claimed the guitar to be her own. She will probably be arrested for complici- ty in the robbery. Lawson will be arra;gned Monday morning at g o'clock.

DOUGLAS EXAMINER
 VICTIM OF ITSELF
Was So VenomouS That Its Poison Caused Its
 Demise.

DOUGLAS, July Especial. )-
 The printing presses, type and oth- CT material used in printing the Exam iner is now in the hands of the sher- if for debt. It is pretty safe to say that never again will the Examiner be printed with the material formerly used in it's production.
 The business men of this city have long been sick and tired of the Ex- aminer, because of the belief that its poficy was such that it would bring lasting injury to every business in- terest here, as well as a disturbance of the peaceful relations which have always existed between the mining companies here and the men at work at the smeiters.
 When the mortgages on the Exami- ner printing plant were offered for sale, after a consultation of several business men here, it was decided to take the mortgages and then take the plant for forfeiture on payment due.
 Of course, everyone knows that the Examiner plant is only a small pro portion of the printing material in the country, but in attaching this par ticular plant the business mems com mittee, who are responsible for it, have again set their seal of disapprov- al on the Examiner type of journalism in Douglas.
 The Examiner was started in Doug las as an adjunct of the Western Fed erataon of Miners; it has devoted it's columns to the support of this labor organization and to the vilest abuse of the mining companies who refused tof give recognition to the organization at Bisbee.
 This course of the Examiner natur- ally aroused the enmity of all who de sire to see conditions in Douglas re main undisturbed by those who brought unnecessary trouble to labor conditions in Bisbee and who can in no way better conditions here.
 The Examiner came to be regard ed as a plague on the community and there will be no regrets because of its fate.

PiCKETlNG MUST BE STOPPED.

Judge F Nj. Doan, of the district court, has granted an injunction which will put a stop to the work of the meddlesome pickets and walking delegates of the Western Federation of Miners The pickets, under the injunction granted by Judge Doan, may not hereafter interfere with or in any way importune or annoy pas sengers travelling on the E. P. & s W railroad enroute to Bisbee or dis tribute strike circulars on the train or on the right of way of said rail road, or to mail circulars in an effort to prevent passengers from going to Bisbee over said railroad, thereby in terfering with its business and pro fits; the injunction is far reaching and is granted on the application of the railroad which sets up in its com Rlaint that the pickets, walking dele gates, organizers and agitators are by their attempt ot prevent men from working in the Warren mining district hurting both the passenger and freight traffic of the Hae.
 Under this injunction a picket may not advise anyone not to go to Bis bee; neither may a picket request a man not to work in the mines of the Bisbee district, as that would be de stroying the business Of the railroad by preventing the mining of ore in the Bisbee district; if the union pick cts could accomplish their declared purpose in Bisbee the business of the Fl Paso and Southwestern railroad would be destroyed. To protect it's business from such injury the com pany asked for the injunction.
 
 The wonder is that the companies have not asked for some such action as this injunction before. Certainly the conditions in the Warren district warrant the step which has been tax en to prevent any further interference by the few Western Federation men remaining there
 The strike was called in Bisbee during the early days of last April: the majority of men at work in the Fines at that time refused to obey the strike command Hundreds of men who did obey the strike order openly declared the action of the un- ion to be an outrage Within a few weeks practically all those who quit their work left the district to seek employment elsewhere: but the union organizers. pickets and walking dele gates remained to manage the strike; these men have travelled on trains and awaited the arrival of trains at Douglas, Lowell and Bisbee for the purpose of persuading. importuning and annoying men corning in to work.  Notwithstanding these meddlesome pickets and walking delegates men have been constantly arriving in Bis bee until at the present time there are more men at work in the Warren d's- trtct than there were year ago
