TEXAN DELIGHTED WITH SCENIC
 GRANDEURS
Says Country Was Made To Order By The
 Elements
(From Saturdays Dailyl

One of the greatest attractions of Arizona for the nonresident to ap- preeiate, according to a statement made yesterday by s. V. Goodman, of Tyler, Tex, now visiting here, is the new Territorial highway under construction from Prescott to Phoe- nix. Following this, the perfect climatic conditions prevailing ranks as another link in the charm of this section of the Territory, in his opin- oin.
 MT. Goodman spent the greater part of yesterday in travelling over the new route, and on his return was pleased to state that it was one of the most delightful trips he had ex- perieneed while touring the West. The grandeur of the scene, the long sweep of picturesque and fascinating scenery, the clear and bracing at- mOsphere from the elevated roadway, were panoramic in effect, and never to be forgotten.
 The lack of interest shown in this splendid and eommendable highway, by the resident, MT. Goodman de- elares, is to be regretted. He says it should be appreciated as one of the greatest projects ever undertaken in the country. He is emphatic in stating that it is in itself an at- traction that is worthy a visit from any part of the country. He is pleased at the opportunity of seeing with his own eyes a sight that is nowhere exeelled in the Southwest.
 He travelled over four miles along the roadway under construction, and from the end of the grade followed the stakes that indicate where the road will cross the sidehills to Mount Union, over twelve miles.
 Concluding his views on this ad- mirable. project, he said: "It is sublime. A striking feature from what is seen at so many points in the Southwest is here lacking. There are no irrigating ditehes to look back or ahead to. The country is made to order by the elements, and in the future I anticipate a strong tide of travel over it to see the eoun- try and the little city that is nestled so comfortably at the bottom of the basin of the Sierra Priettas."
 MT. Goodman and his sister, Miss Sallie Goodman, left last night for the coast, and will return to their home later in the Lone Star State He is a prominent wholesale mer- chant of Tyler.

MOHAVE CHIEF TO
 VISIT WHITE FATHER

PARKER, Ariz., Aug. 2.-Chiet Manitaba, tribal ruler of the Indians of the Colorado Indian reservation at Parker, is making preparations for a visit to Washington for the purpose of interviewing the Com missioner of the General Land Of. fee.
 Recently the Indians have been holding a number of pow-wows, and between dances the prominent braves have been discussing the in vasion of the white man and the probable influence that he will have on their old stamping grounds when the reservation is thrown open to settlement.
 A few weeks ago a petition was circulated among the Indians for the purpose of raising funds to pay the expenses of Chief Manitaba to Washington. It is said that quite sum was raised, but before depart ing on his mission a letter was dis patched to the Commissioner, ask ing if he had any open dates for an August interview. A reply is now being awaited and if the Commis- sioner aequiesees the chief will make the journey.
 It seems the Indians have several matters they desire action taken on in their behalf. First, they want more water for the irrigation of their lands. This the government is now taking steps to furnish, and the survey for the main irrigation ditch has already been made. A new pumping plant is to be installed for the irrigation of approximately 12,000 acres of land. The work of constructing the ditches is expected to start in the fall but the Indians want to be shown.
 Second, they want to know what has become of the coin received from the sale of Parker lots. This wampum, they declare, belongs to the Indians, and the great White Father at Washington (President Taft) said some moons ago that it was to be spent for their benefit. So they want to know the reasons why it is not being spent, for, ac- eording to the Indian interpretation, that is what it was made for.
 Third, they want to know how many acres each Indian is to receive when allotment day comes round. Five acres heap smaIl," they de- clare. "Much more," saith the h. dians, meaning anything up to the limit of the reservation for them.

UTAH CAPITALISTS
 BOND GOLDEN TRAIL

KINGMAN, Ariz., Aug. ?. - The latest arrival of outside capital into the county is that of a strong com bination of Utah men, headed by Wm. Oehs, mining engineer and met allurgist of Bingham, Utah, which has bonded the Golden Trail group of claims in the San Francisco dis trict, about four miles northeast of Gold Road. Though developed by open cuts only, the formation, gener- al conditions and actual mineral showing are so favorable that the consideration is placed at $l00,000, a top figure in this county for a pros peet so little developed.
 The claims were located last Jan uary by Link McKesson, who in a short time proved a ledge about Il feet wide, averaging s7 per ton in free-milling gold. This is a much bet ter surface showing that than of the Gold Road mine with which it is nearly identical in formation and character of ore, and Manager Phil lips was so favorably impressed with it that he called the attention of the company to it, but they were unable to come to terms.
 The MeKessen group is the first indication of a mine on the east side of the range for a distance of ten miles in the San Francisco dis trict, and mas every advantage of it's accessibility to the railroad and to water power, besides being well sup piled with water. The property is within ten miles of the Santa Fe road and only two miles from the Kingman power line. Oehs proposes starting development work at once.
 The Owl prospect, adjoining the Ruth mine in the Silver Creek dis triet, was bonded by c. B. Van De- man of Jacksonville, Florida, who recently took over the property of the Ruth-Rattan Mining company, and is to be used as site for the old Rattan mill. Moving the latter from the Colorado river will be De- gun about the first of August.
 Eli Hilty and associates have bond ed the Big Wonder and Baldwin prospects, three miles west of Gold Road, owned by Brattlund and Gard ner.
 W. L. Clark, of the United Verde, who has been making examinations of the Keystone, Midnight and Pink ham mines at Mineral Park and Chloride, left today for Blackberry to examine the Copper Giant.

Returning Thursday evening from a visit of inspection to the Billy Boy mine of the Hassayampa dis trict, Ed. Block states that devel- OpmeRt is progressing with better results than he anticipated, and says he is very well pleased with the showing. On the footwa1 side of the tunnel a five foot body of ore is uncovered, two feet of which is shipping ore and the remainder of a milling grade. The values are principally gold.
 In past operations the hanging wall side of the tunnel was the point worked. Until the tunnel reaches a greater distance into the mountain the footwall, where the best showing ever made in the mine IS, will be followed.

PETTY THIEF GETS SIX MONTHS
 SENTENCE
CFrom Saturdays Daily)

Tom King was adjudged guilty of the crime of larceny by Judge Me Lane yesterday, and sent to the county all for a term of six months.
 His crime is a peculiar one, and analysed from the standpoint of gratitude, is entitled to the "cake. ' He had been fed and favored for several weeks by Mrs. c. B. Linn, at her hotel, and in turn, paid for the generosity extended by stealing everything in sight, from a broom to a saddle, making no distinction whatever in the character of goods desired. In the aggregate he secured several dollars worth, and some of the tartieles taken were necessary in the use of the house at all times.
 Dr. Linn was also included among the victims, losing two expensive saddles, a bridle and bit, and other utilities. King win continue his schedule of having free board for the above time, but at the expense of the county.
 King was arrested by Officer Me Aahon a few nights ago and lodged in the city jail. He was arraigned in the City Recorders court and given into the custody of the eoun- ty authorities, the city court having no jurisdiction in larceny cases.
 When arraigned he stated that he recently arrived from the Salt River valley and was a cook by oceups- tion. He requested that he be hell to answer before the next grand jury, adding that he expected his friends would come to his assist ance before the grand jury was con- vened.

SKULL VALLEY LANDS
 ARE BEING RECLAIMED
From wednesday,s pailyl

From Wednesdays Daily)
 Returning from an official inspee- ton of county roads through Skull, Kirkland and Fesguson valleys, a few days ago, T. \. Childers gives a very interesting account of observations made in a new movement that has recently been inaugurated in the lat ter section, that of the storage of water for the reclamation of the land. He speaks specifically of the project that E. W. Stephens has in operation, and its feasibility to furn- isn water for an extensive area, which formerly was barren and un- productive.
 The scene that greeted MT. Child CTS was refreshing and convincing, large lake of water being i'm pounded, and a stretch of fertile land under the highest state of eul- tivation in corn, grain, hay, fruits and vegetables.
 On the place of Jay Davis, the same condition was seen. Both ranches were served with an irri- gating system from impounding the water that otherwise would nave been lost.
 Both men stated that they will begin this fall the raising of their dams so as to materially increase their storage capacities and impound enough water to irrigate every par eel of land under each.
 The appearance of the big living lake of water in that region was a surprise to MT. Childers, and he was agreeably impressed with the method of impending it.
 While in Skull Valley MT. Child CTS stated that some of the very best grade of wheat hay is being sent to market, and later the fruits and vegetables will come to this city.
 One unusual and pleasing scene greeted him in this valley, which was creating a great amount of commendable consideration, that of the appearance in the field of Miss Katie Coughran, who is personally directing the cultivation of a large acreage that is planted in eorn, onions, tomatoes, cabbage and other vegetables. Miss Coughran is cap ably known as a school teacher in the valley. During the past season she had charge of the Fair Oaks district school, so that the work she has diligently applied herself to during the vacation period will not be in vain. This young woman has received many handsome expressions for ner diligence, and combined with which she is regarded as one of the most practical young women in the Southwest in imparting useful in- formation with either the pen or the hoe.
 MT. Childers also says that feed on the ranges of the western part of the county is of better grade and more abundant than in many years, assuring a prosperous era for the range interests for many months.
