SUPERVISORS ARE IN FAVOR or
 GOOD ROADS.
(From "Wednesday . Daily.) )

A a result of the discussion of the dspiornblc condition of tho roads in many districts of thc county hy the hssrd of supervisors Monday. immc. disto expenditures for repairs were an. thorizcd. and yesterday forces of men ~cro engaged m the different districts getting the highways into passablc condition.
 Fortunately, at this time, the road fund is in a healthy condition, 1t ap. pearing from the last report of the county treasurer, dated August 3l, that tAero was the sum of sli,70i9i on de Pssit to tho credit of the fund. Taxes srs now due SO ,ha, |, is reasonable to expect that large amount will h, sd,isd to the fund in the months of October, November and December.
 Tho work authorized at tho meeting of the board Monday. was only in enorgency eases. An expenditure of $500 was allowed for the road leading from Harrington to Grown King to be made under the superv lsion of Super. visor Harrington. An immediate cx. pcpditurc of s200 was allowed for the Walnut Grove section, where, it IS stated, the road was entirely washed away for some distance. Two hundred dollars was also allowed for the Will. ismson Valley road, which suffered se. vcrcly during the recent rain storms. Road Oversc.r McWhortcr was in structed 10 use $20O of the road fund for repairs to the Cherry Creek road and Road Oversccr George W. Iiancc vas instructed to repair tn. road through Copper Canyon, leading from Dewey Co Camp Verde. This work will involve the outlay of at least $500 be for. the ist of October.
 Work is being pushed in getting thu Prescott and McCabe road, through tho Lynx Creek section, in a passable con dition. This road suffered severely dur ing the recent storms. Tt is one of tn, important tnoroughfercs of the count, and the board authorized in an unof dcial way the outlay of at least s50' 10 getting it in shape at once.
 Tuesday the members of the boar' will meet at IIumbold, to consider th' sdvisability of building a new count, road from Humboldt ,o connect witt the Dewey and Camp Verde road a Ash Creek. This proposed road vii pasr through the camps of the Baumanl Copper company, the Pick and Drill Mining company. and adjacent 10 th Carroll Gold and Copper company. 1t building will involve th. construction of . bridge over the Agua fria rive at Humboldt. It is represented tna sn excellent site for . bridge can b had at this point, high enough abov the highest known flood watcrs 10 in sure it from destruction by driftwoo, when the stream is swollen.

cupying the premises alone, Juan Cruz was sentenced to serve thirty days a' hard labor in inc city jail, yesterday evening. m the recorders court, in dc. fault of the payment of n s30 fine.
 Cruz. who had been vigorously cclc- brating Mexican Independence Day and the anniversary of the birth Of President Daz, since sunrise, sunday morning, returned to the section house, about midnight, Monday. Before many minutes elapsed he was engaged in quarrel with one of his fellow labor CTS. in which all became involved, more or less, later on. He drew large pockc, knife and threatened severe bodily harm on all who refused to leave and enforced his commands by chasing them from the premises
 Night Officer McMahon and Chief of Police Prince were notified by tclc' phone of Crul's conduct, and mmcdi. ately repaired to the place, wchere they found the bclligcrcnt celcbrator sitting on inc side of his bunk, undresscd. In his native tongue hc ordered the or ficcrs from the place but they refused 70 obey. After struggle they succeed sd in getting on his overalls, when he appeared subducd. Chief Prince then handed him his shoes with orders to gc. into them ns fast as possible. He resented the command by throwing the shoes at the officers, when both took | hold of him and carried him from the place. He refused to accompany them Co the city jail until they had dragged him short distance over the railroad ties. when hc agreed to surrender and allow himself ,o bc provided with n coucn in the city jail.
 Manuel Contrcras, who had accumu' lated m overdose of mcscal during ,h" afternoon, plead guilty to charge of disturbing the peace anu was sent be- low for ten days. He was arrested by Chief Prince after threatening bodily harm to number of fellow country men. whom he accused of stealing his hat, which had fallen into n well while he was enjoying quiet sics'a m an enclosure in the Chinese quarter. Tn' hat was recovered from the well and Contrcras admitted in court the error of his ways, hence the light sentence. | Bcsant Moreno, who admitted hay ing q common jag, was given five days ,o sober up, repairing the street cross and Juan Tapia. whose shack, with it' contents, was burned, Sunday morning at A:30 o'clock, and who was accused of attempting to throw his wife, whom nc accused of setting the place on fire into the flames, was allowed to depart on the payment of n $5 fine. Placc,o Trcmo. his better half, was allowed {, accompany him on promise of future good behavior. Her evidence showed that the place caught on fire from ' lighted candle which fell from th' table while she was preparing to retire after n nights carousal.

money markr, conditions again.

The claim that there is an accumula ton of goo. 100000 to 3O0.0O0000 pounds of copper is absurd. lt K pos siblc that producers hold a total of 100000 OO0 to l5O,O0O0oo pounds of unsold copper which is refined and ready for consumption. To claim that the amount K greater than this, how eyer. is to argue that consumption has decreased 7j per cent within three months. which. of course, is impossible The limited amount of investigation my return from the west convinccs m" that all the unmanufacturcd copper above ground is held by producers. Un der normal conditions consumers would be carrying n, least ioo,ooo,ooo pounds in their working stocks. As soon as money conditions ease up slightly, this copper will change ownership. In the meantime, there is no other class of corporations in existence, not excepting tnt DNnkN. WUlFu IN in bN Kp''i ''h''''ph 10 finance loo,OOo,ooo to 2oo,ooo,0oo pounds of copper as the producers themselves Their treasurics are strair cd to the bursting point with D.
 that have accumulated during tho P. three years of high priced copper
 The reversal of conditions has given the trade n severe {" jolt" and it is natural. therefore, that pessimistic opinions should be heard on every side. IL is not impossible, of course, that "thc worst is yet to cNnc;" hut I feel perfectly satisfied myself that the worlds copper production during the coming two or three years will bc ab sorbed and consumed at IS cents per pound, provided producers are wise enough to he united md firm in asking tha, price. It must be remembered tha. electrical development inc world over has only just begun.
 The Copper Share Market.
 The coppcrs are recovering slowly and ftfully from their loves, prices There are realizing sales and short selling on every rally. and at time, the market acts as though it were abou, to slip back to even lower price' than those recorded a few weeks ago Tine lines of stocks carried on margin by active traders have been very great ly reduced. however, and large an' small investors are heavy buyers a this level of prices. Some of tho low priced speculative spccialtics may de cline very much lower; but 1t seem impossible that stocks representing tn, best mines can ever sell very much bc low current quotations.
 Such coppcrs as Amalgamated, Ana conda, Alloucz, Boston Consolidated Copper Range. Cumberland Ely, Greene Granby. Nevada Consolidated, Nortl Butte, old Dominion, Osccola, Quincy shannon, Utah Copper and Utah Con solidatcd are all worth very much nor than their present selling prices, an investors who nave the courage 10 bu them will not only get heavy dividen return. but within a few years the will bc able 10 sell them at much highc prices.
 Among the low priced speculativ coppers those that look most attractiv are Arizona Commercial, Balakala Boston Corbin. Butte ( London, Maso
 Valley, Nevada. Douglas, Helvetia, an Michigan. Those who prefer to talk their chances with low priced stock should buy these on every reaction an be prepared to hold them until mar kct conditions improve.

JEFF DAVIS ID
 ESMASH AIRECORD Akansas' New Senator Gives
 Notice That He Will
 Speak December II Be fore Senate on His Bill ANTITRUST MEASURE By Serving Formal Notice of His ln-
 tention. Will Take Palm From
 Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin, :. Provisions of Bill.
MEASURE

..''Washington, Dec 6.-Senator Jeff Davis startled the staid and reverend seniors in the Senate yesterday by giving formal notice that he would address the Senate December II on his antitrust bill which he. introduced yesterday at the first opportunity of this session for offering bills. His bill follows in part the lines laid down by the measure he proposed in Arkansas for suppression of pools, trusts and combinations in trade" It's provisions are sweeping in applica- tion, including all conceivable forms whereby persons or corporations en- gagged in interstate or international trade seek to evade the law, forbid ding combinations in restraint of trade, specifying trusts formed in this country or any other.
 The bill prohibits any agreement to fix the price of any article of manu factured production, imposing pen alty of a 5000 fine for each offense, and each day of continuing offense anothery 5000 fine. It also makes the violation a felony, with impris onment of not less than five nor more than 20 years, the offending person or corporation to forfeit it's charter, if it be a federal one. The measure makes it unlawful to sell, deliver or dispose of articles sold by inhibited corporations and relieves the purchas- CT from liability to pay for the arti- cles so prohibited. Seetion five is es- pecially drastic in defining corpora tions or combinations prohibited by the act. It makes it unlawful to of fer for sale any article for tess than the cost of manufacture, for the pur- pose of preventing competition. He provides that if any officer of cor pOration fails to answer to a subpoena when on trial Involving the provisions of this act, such failure shall operate to cause the court to enter a default, annulling all pleadings filed previous ly by the defense.
