Return to Douglas of George H. Kelly and E. R.
 Pitle
CANDIDATES ALONG WAY

mile lflp tnEOuSu sOusnefn Adizouat E. R. Pirtle. George H. Kelly and Chauffeur Spencer Heath returned to Douglas yesterday afternoon at o'clock, says the International, coming home from Phoenix via the Roosevelt dam and Globe.
 The trip was made in a 1912 model Cadillac automobile, for which Mir. Pirtle holds the territor- ial agency This machine has all the latest Improvements, is self cranking, electric lighted and has an automatic pump for putting air into the tires, but this device was not required on the trip. The roads 1 from Globe are in bad condition on account of recent heavy rains, and ! it was necessary to take the rail road track with the machine for several mikes on the San Carlos h. dian reservation. At many places on the reservation the deep washes coming into the Gila river from the hills are washed out so that it was necessary to build a road across. No one should attempt to reach Globe in an automobile from Doug las through the San Carlos reser- yation during the rainy season.
 Good Roads Possible.
 The road from Douglas to Tue son, via Bisbee. Hereford. Huachuca Siding and the Empire ranch could be made good one by the expendi- ture of a few hundred dollars be- tween Hereford and the Empire ranch. From Tucson to Phoenix the road is bad in wet weather, but during the dry season it is good With some work on the road men tioned above a machine will make good time all the way to Phoenix unless there have been heavy rains
 It can be truthfully said that the ranges in southern Arizona were never better and one must travel through the range country at this season to appreciate the great wealth to be found in the cattle in dustry. Cattle are fat and there are hundreds of thousands to be seen between Douglas and Tucson, all fat and in perfect condition.
 The piece of territorial highway which has been completed west of the Empire ranch is an excellent road, and it is pleasure to ride over it. Fifteen miles of this road will soon be completed and it is through a country where the noun tain scenery is grand.
 1 The road from Phoenix to Globe via Roosevelt is in perfect condi- ton and the trip over the Supersti- tion mountains presents a view that I is captivating; in places the road is cut into the solid rock and literally hangs over precipiees many hun dreds of feet deep. Over this road the 1912 Cadillac came on interme- diate all the way, showing an easy grade all the way.
 Tucson Is Jubiiant.
 At Tucson everybody was found to be jubilant over the coming oi the Fl Paso & Southwestern rail. road to that city. Many new busi ness blocks are being completed and others are being planned for the fall to be completed before the completion of the road. The busi ness men all told about an unusual ly good business season during the summer, and they are confident that the Old Pueblo will hold its place as one of the best business points in the territory. Consider able mining development is under way in the districts tributary tC Tucson and it is proposed to build a customs shelter near the city by a company recently organized there Many improvements have beer made at the university and it ii -i assured that the student list there will be larger this year than evel before. Dr. Wilde. the new presi dent, has succeeded in awakening interest in the university all owe; the territory, and this will greatl! help in making the university nor, successful than before
 Phoenix Building Up.
 Phoenix, the capital city of th' new state, is doing more in the wa, of improvement and building thaI any of the Arizona cities at thi time The new Adams hotel is vel along on the way to completion ant MT Adams stated that he expecte, to have it ready to care for guest during the Arizona fair, but that ] would not be entirely completed il that time. It is built of reinforce' concrete from cellar to garret an' will be fireproof, the only woo' about it will be the door and win dow frames.
 Many new structures have bee
