Il feel confident that we shall carry

Michigan Suffrage association, Sat

Mrs. Susan NJ. Sellers, president

said The experience OF other states
has been that large cities are hard

tend to make me doubtful OF our
ability to carry Detroit. Nevertheless,

also, with about $4,000 members, are
for suffrage. The Lady Macabees are
working steadily for US. We have no
enttsuffrage movement among the
women of Michigan to contend with,
Moreover, Michigan has few big
cities, and this fact will tend toward
our victory.
The churches also have done con
siderable in our behalf. A number
OF ministers gave us part OF theil

THE temperance question has not
figured prominently In this campaign
and I am glad OF that, for II is quite
distinct from the suffrage movement
believe that this fact is recognized
IN Michigan.

Harry Heap stated that he examined inc work daily and that the well is pro ducing fifteen gallons a minute at the present time If it continue. to i'm. prove in the next 100 feet as i, has m the last ten feet, there will be enough water, he predicted, to supply one-half of the city of Prescott.
 It was decided to continue the an. nual subscription to the Arizona De- velopment board.
 Chairman Heap reported that the Tourists and Homeseekers' committee had written 150 personal letters to Phoenix people and had under con. sideration project of advertising in Texas papers.
 An extended discussion was prccipi. tated by LeRoy Anderson when he suggested that some plan should be devised to protect the merchants from the strangers who come into town and take orders for shirts, shoes and other supplies. Remarks were made by Messrs. Doyle, Jenkins, McNslly, Gold. water, Hope and Burmister, and as the remarks extended to the dcclars- ton that prices were excessive hero on some lines, some of the merchants pointed out that too liberal a credit system was the reason. The matter was referred to the Transportation committee.

MEN CHARGED WITH
 4 SERIOUS CRIME
(From Fridays Dsily.)

The preliminary trial of R. w
 Lcnoard and James St. Clair was held
 yesterday before Judge McLane, and
 defendants held to await the action
 of the grand jury in default of s200O
 hail each. The men are accused of
 highway robbery against one c. B.
 Recchia. and also are charged with
 picking the pockets of one Fritz
 Schroeder for. the sum of s1.50, all
 Che money Fritz had.
 According to the evidence of the
 prosecuting witnesses the affair took
 place about as follows: On the after.
 noon of the 18th of February the de.
 fendants, Leonard and St. Clair, in company with Schroeder. made their
 way to point near Cedar Glade on
 the water train when they were eieeted. After this, Schroeder testi. fled, Leonard and St. Clair asked him to join in a hold.up of a Mexican whom they suspected of having some money. The boy, aged fifteen, ayers that he refused Co join in the busi. ness. and went on to Cedar Glade. That evening Leonard and St. Clair also showed up at the station house, and also c. B. Recchia. That night all four passed the time in the station house. The Schroeder boy swears that when he went to sleep that night that he had sI.s0 in his pocket and that when he awoke the next morning he had nothing, having been touched while asleep. He states that the next morning he saw Recchia and Leonard and St. Clair going toward the grading camp, where hc presumed they would apply for work. Recehia was little ahead of the others. Schroeder says that when hc asked them where they were going that one of them gave him a knowing wink and a shrug of the shoulders in the direction of the Italian, Reechia, as much as to say they would get him. Further than this Schroeder does not know, except that he identifies the men as the ones who slept at Cedar Glade on the night of the 10th.
 Recehia says that soon after he left Cedar Glade on the morning Of the goth, that he was overtaken by the two men, Leonard and St. Clair, and they proposed that they all go ahead and get jobs. When about two and a half miles out of Cedar Glade. at n lonely place, that st. Clair threw a gun in his face and made him stand while Leonard went through his pockets quite thoroughly taking all his money, &5.70, gold filled watch and chain, razor, a knife, and an extra pair Of shoes which he was carrying. After Leonard had finish ed his work, st. Clair changed places with him and let Leonard hold the gun while he made a more exhaustive search through Mir. Recchia's clothes.

NEW LOOP DRIVE
 WILL REBUILT FROM WORK fRrovu pvtAa vss Daflv1

From Fridays Daily,
 Much interest as well as satisfaction is expressed over the high class road work that has been insugursted on the Copper Basin route. With the grade to be established on lines laid down by Superintendent Clark, two eommendsblc propositions will be sup ported, the mining industry that is assuming importance st present in Copper Basin, and the reviving of wagon traffic among the farming ele- ment of Skull, Kirkiand, Peoples and other valleys in the west.
 From the standpoint of automobile travelling. the rebuilding of this road to the summit near Government Springs, will afford A driveway that will be noted for its scenic beauties, and will also open up new loop route that will be very popular from the beginning, and on s grade that will be easily traversed.
 Starting from Prescott the distance to Copper Basin Is less than twelve miles. while six miles further lies Skull Valley. From the latter place good road Is available to where the Williamson Valley road is interseeted near Lees Lake, of about twenty.two miles in length. When once on the main highway the road to Jerome Junction may be travelled, or the d. rect route taken 10 this city on the return trip, of iess than twelve miles. or in the aggregate via Granite Mountain, a loop of about 52 miles will be created.
 IT on the other hand, |. Is desired to return via Jerome Junction on the cutoff roadway of the Prescott Auto Club. the distance will be increased about 27 miles. In either ease, how. ever, the loop that will be provided by the new Copper Basin road, will be one of the most fascinating in varied landscapes to be passed through that can be seen in this section, with the possible exception of the magnificent country through which the territorial highway passes to the south of this city.

 bent position to a cedar tree, where

 After his assailants were s out of
 sight, Reechia began to labor to free
 himself and after several hours was able to work the knots loose. He then hastened to Cedar Glade where he reported the matter to Deputy Sheriff Roberts, who promptly com. municated the facts to Sheriff Keel. CT. Officers along the main line were notified to keep look out and on Saturday last, at Blackberry, in Mo. have county the defendants tried to sell watch alleged to be that of Recchia. The bartender to whom it was offered had heard of the hold up. and detained the men about the place till he could notify Deputy Sheriff Dan Bacon, who placed the men under arrest and wired Sheriff Kcelcr, who went up and brought tho two men to Prescott and placed them in jail where they have been till yesterday awaiting the arrival of Recehia from the Cedar Glade road where he is at work.
 On being brought to Prescott, Rec. ehia was taken to the jail and into the main room where defendants and about twenty other prisoners were confined and asked to pick out the two men whom he alleged had robbed him. He easily and quickly selected the two men giving the names as above stated.
 After the alleged decd, the supposed guilty parties are thought to have gone back toward Ash Fork 10 throw the officers off their trail, as they figured that when Schroeder and Rec. chia would make report to the off. eers that they would state that tlseir erstwhile companions were travelling south.
 Leonard claims to be British sub. ject. And he is going to try the same old story of "Once m English. man, always an Englishman," and has written to the British consul at San Francisco asking aid in his troubles.
 Recehia is said to have identified all the alleged stolen property, even to the shoes which were worn by one of the defendants. The preliminary examination was conducted by Deputy County Attorney Morgan, and he con. siders that he has n clear case against the men.
 The penalty for robbery under the circumstances alleged is not less than five years in the penitcntiary, and may be as high as the court and jury think the gravity of the ease justifies and unless something slips, these two strangers will have an opportunity to become old.time residents of Arizona.
