ROAD TO
 CAMP VERDE ASSURED
From Thursdays Daily)

That the construction of the Ter ritorial highway from this city tC Camp Verde will be commenced al an early date, was learned yesterday from ]. B. Girand, Territorial en gineer. who arrived from Phoenix MT. Girand is accompanied by J. s Barlow, his assistant. Governor Sloan arrived on the midnight train and will go over the proposed route' today with MT. Girand. They will be accompanied by the members of the Board of Supervisors and a con mittee of the Chamber of Commerce In going to the Verde Valley, the Cherry Creek route will be selected while on the return trip the Copper Canyon road will be inspected. Thi, will give the party an opportunity to make a complete circuit and de, eide the route. When final selee. tion is made, which will be announced after the return of the party, MT Barlow will begin his duties as To- eating engineer.
 Mir. Girand stated yesterday that he will make a strenuous effort "a have the road available during the present year, and with the advantage of having a considerable part of the route already built, believes that the work can be accomplished in that time. The same energy in good road building will be maintained on this project as at other points in Ari- zOna.
 COincident with the beginning of work from this city to the Verde Valley, operations will be started on June l between Flagstaff and Camp Verde. Repair work on the estab- lished road will be started with the exception that the steep hill leading out of Beaver Creek to the Mogollon Mountain plateau will be reduced to a lesser percentage. Bids for th.s work are to be opened on May 20th.
 Speaking of the probability of Prescott and Phoenix being connected during the present year, MT. Girand says that the Supervisors of Maricopa and Yavapai county will meet on the invitation of the Territorial Good Roads Association, and with the as- sistance of the Territory, an effort will be made to have the great pro- ject under way before snow flies. He estimate sthat fairly good road can be built this year between the two cities, and is enthusiastic in en- dOTsing the movement.
 In Southern Arizona enthusiasm is shown everywhere over the Territor- ial road movement, and the public is beginning to appreciate what better traveling conditions mean in attract ing tourists and establishing better commercial relations. With a through north and south Arizona road, such as Is projected, Prescott will be the Mecca of many during the warmer months, in the southland.

HERNANDEZ SAYS
PEACE TO BE SOON
Mexican Statesman in City
Says Revolution Will
Be ShOrt-LiYed

THE present trouble in Mexico will
be over at the most in SO days" says
Dr. Fortunate Hernandez. vice presi-
dent of the Mexican congress, member
OF the leading literary societies of Mex
leo and personal friend of president
Diaz, of Mexico.
The Mexican government is rushing
troops into those parts Of the country
where this uprising is and they are
fast coping with the situation in a per
fectly satisfactory manner OF course
the class of men they have to deal with
are peculiar and drastic measures in
some cases will be used, but on the
whole the small numbers of insurrectos
will give up without any fighting.
When one thinks of the 40. 1000 trained
soldiers at the command of the Next
can government it is easy to see that
the small band Of revolutionista will
have no chance.
Madero has been declared insane
by some of the greatest alienists of
Mexico, and this revolution is only the
product of man in that condition. His
soldiers are simply taken from the
lower classes, who will take up with
anything when a few powerful speech
eS are made. AS soon as this trouble is
over and Madero comes to Mexico he
will be confined in an insane asylum.
The other leaders, such as Orozco, will

REPAIR TRAIN At
WRECKED ENGINE.
Workmen Jack Up Part Of
the Wreck and Get 1t
Ready to Replace.

Billy Meyer, engineer on the work
train that went out over the National
railways of Mexico. Monday to the
scene of the wrecked train IL miles be-
low Juarez, returned with his train at
Z o'clock Monday night He said that It
would require about an hour to finish
replacing the destroyed track and
lift the engine tank on the track. It
was lacked up Monday preparatory for
the completion of the work.
The engine pulling the wrecked train
was thrown but a few feet from the
track by the explosion and it can be
easily replaced. Mr.. Meyer said
Considerable work, however, will be
necessary to replace the water car,
which was blown from the track when
tho dynamite exploded. The passenger
coach In which the explosive was car
rried, was practically demolished, even
the trucks and part of the wheels be-
ing blown away by the force Of the
dynamite. It will be necessary to pick
up the passenger coach in pieces and
load 1t In a box car, preparatory to
bringing 1t to Juarez.
Mr.. Meyer states that the second To-
connective stands about 1900 feet from
the explosion and is not damaged. 1t
Is thought 1T can be brought into
Juarez under its own head of steam.
Two men said to be revolutionists
