A bunch of twenty-five Holtville boosters took opportunity Monday to get John Mitchell. pesident of the National Highway Association. and the Angeles-Yuma Auxiliary, into cor. ner and pound few locally well known facts into his head.
 1t seems that the Los Angeles man. agement has been consistently igner- ing the Holtville to Yuma route thru the sands and has been planning all the time to improve the, Mammoth Wash way for the Phoenix road race.
 The Holtville bunch,1 headed by Rhil Brooks, had the following session with MT. Mitchell as reported by The Los Angeles Times: r
 Twenty-Five of the good roads en- thusiasts from the Imperial Valley, leo by Philip Brooks of Holtville, were in Los Angeles yesterday primed for ac- tion on the ocean-to-ocean highway. With an offer of $5.OOO to the national highway fund. and a promise to put the road from Holtville to Yuma in shape for the Los Angeles-Phoenix road race, they called John s. Mitch ell. president of the Ocean-to-Ocean Highway Association, with a definite plan.
 '"This plan embraces the opening of the road from Holtville through the sands to Ogilby, on the Southern Pa cific' railroad. Their idea is that the highway should be built through Holt vile to Brawley and thence across the sand dunes to the railroad tracks, and thus avoiding the Mammoth Wash. They prpose to put twenty-five teams at work this morning on the road, and agree that it will be in shape for the desert race in three weeks.
 President Mitchell listened to the plan and was more than willing to

 Harry mentions the fact that when the new stock arrives and is arranged in the new store that Yuma can then boast of as fine a store with as fine stock of goods as will be found in the state of Arizona.
 The business will be conducted on strictly cash basis which will be of mutual benefit to buyer and seller.
 MT. Brownstetter says he is glad to get home again.
 MT: Brownstetter had an excellent opportunity of learning of actual con- ditions along political lines, and says that the prospects of Progressive victory in New York and other big states, are getting stronger every day, as the election draws near.

He Tv an Ia he had intended to carry out the will of his constituents and believed that he had done so.

Several department stores would do credit 10 a city several times the size Of Bis bee. The Fl Pasoans could have spent a day and still not have seen all there is to see in Bisbee, but they saw much in the two hours they re- mained here.
 Little time was available for visits 10 any of the rich mines of the Calu- met & Arizona, or the Shattuek and Arizona, or the Copper Queen in the Bisbee district; n9ither was there time for a visit to the handsome coun- try club, which Bisbee like Douglas, supports in a splendid manner. The handsome offices of the C. & 4. just outside Of Bisbee attracted much say, orable comment as the train entered the city.

During Ten Day Session 162 Cases Were Presented aud Were Investi-
 gated by Jury
HESTER IS INDICTED

The United States grand jury has submitted it's final report and was dismissed by Judge Sloan on We'd nesday at Phoenix. He complimented the jurymen for the expedition they had shown in the disposition of the business brou ft before it. He stat ed he believed that a record had been broken.
 In the week and a half the grand jury has been sitting i62 cases have been investigated. One hundred and thirty indictments were returned: the charges were ignored in twenty cases and seven cases were referred to the next grand jury.
 The final report included an in- dictment against Thomas Hester. large cattleman of L-amy. N. NJ. charged with smuggling more than l,l00 head of cattle across the line at Douglas
 It was supposed Chat that matter had been settled. After an action had been begun by the government for the eonfiscation of the cattle which had been siezed a short dis tance this side of the line, on Hes ter's representation that the cattle had got beyond his control and crossed, he was allowed to pay the duty on them and to ship them to Lamy after complying with the sani- tary regulations.
 An indictment was also found against W. s. Bessolo. charging him with a fradulent use of the mails in disseminating information to prospective stockholders of a com pany he had formed for the manu- iacture and sale of pipe wrench he had invented.
 In it's final report the grand jury presented sixteen indictments. Four teen of them were against persons charged with the sale of liquor to In- dians One was against an Apache Indian, "F-i4," for an assault upon Mrs. Verne Coleman, wife of an off cial of the agency at Fort Apache. by shooting.

Jones and he devoted most of his time to removing the Cpidernis from the Mule Boozers" as the at first miscalied them, hastily correcting the slip of the tongde, which, however. brought laugh from the crowd. M-. Jones declared that Roosevelt had always been in agreement with the republican, party which he was nov so strenuoarsly deaolslclng; he had always been hsnd-in-Slove with the republican bosses until they refused to endorse his ambition for a third term as president and put the steam roller over him at Chicago.

 Tucson, Oct. lS-The business men of Fl Paso who are touring Arizona in an endeavor to turn the trend of trade toward the Pass City reached here today, coming in from Nogales.
 The eNcursionists of which there are are about 200 are well pleased at their reception in the infant state and the correspondent of the Fl Paso Herald with the party sent the fol- towing 10 his paer regarding the visit 10 Bisbee where they were Thursday afternoon:
 The Visit to Bisbee
 Reaching Bisbee, after admiring the Hoval A. Smith model farm as they journeyed over from Douglas. and noting the rapid growth of the suburbs Of Lowell and Warren, the Fl PasOans came suddenly, on round ing a curve in a canyon, upon a city, she completeness and metropolitan character of which was surprising o many who have seen it even a few months ago. To those who had neg- CT been there, the surprise was great; they had not expected to see such a splendid town, and such a unique tOWn-the only town in the country that is big enough for free mail de- livery and cant have it because it has no streets except in the business section Bisbee is built in the can yons around the original Warren dis trict mines When the first miners settled here, they never dreamed of a town; they just camped where it suit ed them. Others came and camped and then they built houses and then stoTekeepers came and then things be- gan to happen so fast that nobody can remember what did actually trInspire, but first thing they kney they had a city. And ever since thas time, they have been busy getting as much order as possible out of the original chaos.

 ; The result is that while some of the business streets are pretty marrow, they have been paved and fixed up until it is easy to get from place to place and not get lost, but man has to find his house with a compass. On every hillside and up every canyon surrounding the business section, the town is buiit-handsome homes, bean Tiful yards. all forming a picture as pretty as 1t is unique Bisbee has street cars to connect it with its sub uTbs and traverse its business sec tiOn; it has electric lights, good wa

COURTS AND UNFAIR vERoIcrs
Judges Should Be Careful Not to
 Usurp the Functions of Juries.

The right of a court to reduce the amount of a verdict is based upon the theory that juries are sometimes in fluencei by passion or prejudice. But this right should not be stretched into tion of the jury, and when this oc- CUTS the right of trial by jury has been definitely impaired.
 The amount of the verdict is the es- sence of the verdict. What good does it do a suitOr to obtain a judgment unless the judgment is allowed to stand? Yet the courts refuse to per init juries to fix the amount of the with their ideas of justice. After a litigant las run the gantlet of the courts and their delays, the appellate court will finally say:
 You won, and won fairly, but you got too much
 The litigant naturally inquiries: Why didn't you tell me you wouldn't let the verdict of the jury stand? If had obtained a verdict for less than you thought I was entitled to, would you have raised it?" He knows the court wouldn't, and he naturally loses respect TOT d court WlltI pIOlcICS Iiio rights of his opponent, but not his own.
 If it were not for this. juries would not render verdicts for $30,000 or s40,- 900 for a life Such verdicts are often rendered in the belief that the appel late courts will reduce them.
 There are, of course, exceptions. In 1901 Supreme Court Justice James A O'Gorman of New York City, now United States senator. set aside a verdict for $500 against the Metro politan Street Railway company for the death of a 5-year-Old boy. Justice O'Gorman pointed out that the funeral expenses and other special damages proved in the case amounted to $1Sl leaving but little more than S1OO as compensation for the loss. He said the verdict shocked the moral sense C. P Connolly in Eeverybody's Ma gazine.
