TRUE CONDITION OF
 P|NEA|R SITUATION
Statement Issued By President Dor
 man of the Company.

In order that no misleading inn
 pressions may gain circulation in re-
 gard to the conditions in Pineair
 camp, desire to make known the
 exact status of affairs and the plans
 outlined by the board of directors. at
 their meeting Monday afternoon. Our collections have been very slow in
 coming in on account of the scarcity or money at this time of the year.
 Having and harvesting have been on
 in full blast for some time. but very
 little hay or grain has been sold as yet, and this is the hardest time of the year for most people to meet their obligations. In thirty t. sixty days this condition should be relieved. and we expect every subscriber to stock
 rl the Pineair Resort Clrlpary to make lis obligation good either in labor on the road or in cash. It is true that the road is costing more than at first anticipated. but after spending S10,000 it can not and will not be abandoned As far as the roa,i has been completed it is said by those who have seen it to be on an excel lent grade, and when settled will be first-class in every particular The work will be completed. that much is assured; the time of completion de- pends entirely upon the proniptness with which the people meet their or- ligations and the amount Of help we may be able to obtain from outside sources.
 As it was impossible to maintain under present conditions a force sur- ficiently large to push the completed road through by July 1st. the board of directors has outlined the follow ing plan. which will not only reduce the current expenditure of cash. but make it possible for a good many of our people to take advantage of the resort in very short time, probably by the 1st of July: Our superintend- ent, MT. Thompson. has been instruct ed to reduce the force to fifteen men, or as many as can be worked to good advantage, and to begin at once the construction of a good trail on the line of the survey from the completed road on this end to meet the com pleted road at Pineair end. This work will mean no additional expense. as it all has been done ahead of the actual road construction. As the completed road now stands, this trail will only be a little over five miles in length and will be a luxury as compared with the ordinary mountain trail, as it will be on a grade and clear from brush. When completed this trail will be kept open and widened into a completed road as fast as possible. Our commissary and road camps are situated well up in the hills, where it is cool and pleasant to work; nei- ther men or teams suffer any incOn- venience from the heat and a spring of good water is near at hand. Those l who so desire can take their families | to this camp at the end of the com | pleted road and work out their sub | scription. Our commissary will fur | nish supplies and feed at reasonable l prices, or board if it is desired. l can | say with others who have visited our | camp recently that labor there in the | cool air is not in the same class with | labor in the valley at the present | time. If there is demand for it | we will maintain a pack outfit to take camp equipment and supplies over the trail to Pineair until ready for wagons and autos.
 An energetic canvass is to begin at once in Phoenix, Tempe and Mesa for additional subscriptions. and we expect to have the temporary trail into a passable road in time to accommodate subscribers during the last and most trying part of the summer season.
