STATE NEW s
HONOR GUESTS WILL
 BUILD HIGHWAY
GOVERNOR HUNT WILL TRUST CONNECTS TO WORK ON
 ROADS WITHOUT GUARDS

Without a singleguard, twenty five picked convictS from the Arizona state penitentiary will be put to work this week on the road between Ray and Globe. No one will be with them except w. E. Marvin of the state engineering department
 This is a further trial of Gov ernor George Hunts prison reform system He has formulated an ex- tenSive plan to work about half of the 400 convicts in the penitentiary on the state highways, but all of them except this first party of twen- ty-five, will be under guard.
 Under the direction of Governor Hunt, Superintendent w P. Sifs of the penitentiary selected the twenty five men among the convicts who are regarded as most worthy of trust Nearly all of them are Americans, according to Superintendent Sims report to the governor.
 Five of the prisoners will be sent out alone to establish camp on the summit, northeast of Ray. As soon as camp is established the twenty oth- CTS and Engineer Marvin will be sent out. It is probable that they will re main in camp about six months.
 There are about thirteen miles of road over the mountais between Ray and Globe that is practically nothing but a trail There is a great deal of work to be done to put this road in shape, and it must be done in the hardest, most tedious way. The convict road builders will have sev- eral horses and mules, some scrapers and an unlimited supply or picks and shoyels. Dynamite will be provided by the state for the rock work.
 T believe in putting convicts to work and by working them on the roads we can build good highways at very small cost to the state,", Gov ernor Hunt said, last evening. Tt is not right to imprison men and deny them. the right to work. for. it ruins their health.
 Before the good roads bill was passed by the Legislature, we had practically completed a plan to. work the convicts on the highways. We were determined to do as much as possible on Arizona's roads as we could do with convict labor, even if the Legislature did not make any provision for the levying of road taxes.
 ultimately we. will have about 200 convicts at work on our roads. As soon as the sewer at Florence is finished we, will put a force to work between that place and Mesa. They will be under. guard. however, as will most of the. conyicts we work on the roads. after this first party is sent out. We cannot afford to send out unguarded any except our most trusted conwiets. .''-Democrat.

Roosevelt Men Quit the Fight.
 The story of the last day of the convention is one of much disorder, quarrels on the floor, sporadic bursts of enthusiasm, and, during part of the long session, swift work by the we'll oiled Taft machine. Making their last futile fight on the seating of the contested Taft delegates from Wash lngton and Texas, the Roosevelt dele gates voted against the platform sub mitted by the committee on resolu- tions and then devoted themselves to rather riotous behavior, laughter at the Taft speakers and even at Chair man Root, and vigorous refusal to vote.
 The coloners advice to his forces was read to the convention by Henry J. Allen of Kansas and included a bitter denunciation of the actions of the majority. It was hooted by the Taftites. but as the table shows, it was effective in most instances. Among the states that disregarded most prominently. That 52 of its delegates voted for the colonel was due to state political conditions Pennsylvania created a diversion by casting two votes for Justice Hughes In the mix-up Senator Cummins grabbed off seven unexpected votes from Idaho. And La Toilette also benefited by the conditions, getting five of South Dakota's votes, in addi- ton to his 26 from Wisconsin and 10 from North Dakota.
 Enthusiasm Is Rather Mild.
 If the truth must be told, the vic tory of President Taft did not create any wild enthusiasm in the Coliseum Of course, there was a lot of cheer ing, and a banner bearing the picture of the winner was carried through the aisles, but no one followed it, and the tired spectators at once began to make their way out of the hall. Even the delegates could not be kept in their seats for the vote on Sunny Jim" The reading clerks jumped about like crazy men trying to catch nobody cared very much whether or not they succeeded.
 This purges the party of a most disturbing element" said the Taft men. soberly.
 This Is the death of the good old Republican party. Now for a new party-a party of progress" said the defeated friends of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt.
 Such Democrats as were present said little, but looked joyful.
 Taft Forces Win Every Point.
 From the day when the national committee met to begin the hearing

announced: Jack Johnson of North Dakota hit a Mississippi delegate in Vermont" A few minutes later there appeared in the hall news sheet an- nouncing in big headlines: Riot in G. O. P.-Bloodshed'
 Another bit of excitement came when the Massachusetts delegation was being boiled. The IS Roosevelt delegates refused to vote, and Chair man Root ruled that their alternates should be called. This raised fine row and MT. Root received all that comes to an unpopular umpire in a ball game, except the pop bottles. He stuck to his decision, as every umpire must do, and the row grad ually subsided.
 Putting Them in Nomination.
 Having given up the fight, Colonel Roosevelt was not put in nomination. But Ohio responded nobly for Presi- dent Taft with an eloquent speech by Warren c. Harding of Marion MT. Harding is a large man with a large voice, and he kept the crowd cheering by safe references to the Grand Old Party and its achieve ments. Several times he drifted into eulogistic passages concerning MT. Taft, but the Roosevelt army didn't

THE SOUTHWESTERN MAY
 MAKE PHOENIX TERMINUS

PHOENIX I have not re- ceived any official information I be- lieve that the story published yester- day, to the effect that the Fl Paso & Southwestern will soon let a con- tract for the building of an extension from Tucson to Globe, I have the best of reasons for believing that it is correct. And if the Southwestern does build to Globe, it certainly will build to Phoenix.
 This statement was made by Gen P & s. w., who, with Travel ing Freight and Passenger Agent F.. G. Mustain, arrived in the city this morning.
 The story published in the Demo crat was that the Fl Paso & South western will in August, open bids for the building of the extension, which will be about 110 miles long, and that active construction work will commence in September. The main purpose in building to Globe f at this time is to haul ores from the Gleeson and Leatherwood mines, near Oracle, to the Old Dominion smelter at Globe The Old Dominion, Copper Queen and Fl Paso & South western are all controlled by the Phelps-Dodge interests. Recently the Copper Queen took over the Giese- man Leatherwood claims, which are in copper ore.
 General Agent Warren agreed with the surmise that ofter the Globe eX- tension is completed the E. P. & s. w. will build to Phoenix. The Phoe- nix branch will probably leave the Globe line somewhere near Mammoth seventeen milesh southwest of Wink elman

A Douglas Mexican whose name is not divulged by either the postoffice authorities or banks because of detec- tives being on his trail at present has worked the banks in the cities out of hundreds of dollars, perhaps thous- ands, through the means of raised ip- ternational- money orders. The trick was discovered a few days ago by postmaster Fred Caldwell of this city, and as result two orders each for 200 pesos, have been placed in the hands of the postofhce inspectors.
