A STATEMENT TO THE PUBLIC.

 I,na .Q 10OQ

Phoenix, Maricopa Co., AriZ.
 June 8. 1909. [ To the Public at Large:
 The accompanying instrument is q statement made by the undersigned regarding the distribution and man agement of public funds by our hon orable board of supervisors.
 We as building contractors were requested to place an estimate for the erection and completion of a lav- atory building to be placed on the court house grounds. The same was made in good faith for the faithful and complete performance of said building. strictly according to a set of plans and specifications furnished by J. NJ Creighton, architect. When bids were opened it was found that we were the lowest of the several bids that were rendered. the difference being only seven dollars. We had seventy dollar certified check en- closed with our bid as required by the board But nevertheless notwith-
Arizona republican., 1909-06-13

standing our proposition was turned down and the next lowest proposition accepted.
 The only excuse they could make was that we were strangers, and we were afterwards told by a friend that We were not good democrats Now, if such were the case, why accept a bid from us at all if we were not to be considered in the end? Why in the beginning? We merely make this statement for the benefit of the tax payers who might be interested in public affairs, and as to our validity and competency I presume if they had taken the pains to investigate they would likely have discovered that we were probably as competent as the man whom they awarded the contract to.
 I. (J. B. MitchelD have been ih your town near about two years 1cting in the capacity as foreman Cn concrete work for the A@izone Construction and I presume could give as good reference as any man. But as for me CT H.

This extension of the road will devel-
op very fine agricultural country and

ed timber section In Southwest Virginia
as well as a country richly laid with
vast quantities of iron and other ores.

and extensive timber interests in Bland,
have bought manufacturing site of
ten acres at Rocky Gap, and it is be-
lieved will establish a large extract

The people of Bland county, one of
the best counties in the State, are to be
congratulated over this new enterprise
and the opening up of the county's i'm
mense virgin forests and vast mineral
resources; and In this development the
Hon. James D. Honaker, owner of
