.C. P. DUNN INDICTED FOR MANUFACTURE
 OF OPIUM.
Clifton Citizen is Indicted by Federal Grand Jury at Phoenix; Trial Set
 for November 26. 2,

c. P. Dunn was indicted at Phoe- nix by the Federal grand jury on the charge of manufacturing opium with out giving the bond required by the United States collector of internal revenue. The case was set for trial on November 26th, before Federal Judge Sawtelle.
 The indictment charges that Dunn manufactured the drug on May IS. 1913.
 It is stated that the charge re- sultfng in the indictment is largely to be attributed to the i'll feeling on the part of the complainant against the defendant, the latter not comply ing with demands of the former which appeared to the defendant to be with out reason. It is stated that the de- fendant fears no results of the case. as he disclaims the manufacture of the drug, that is, the changing of it's forms, and is confident that the out come will be an acquitta1. The defendant was engaged in the drug business on Chase Creek at the time of the alleged offense.

FORGERs INJECTED CLIFTON MERCHANTS
 NOW IN JAIL.
Adviees of Sheriff Patty Result in Arrest at Bisbee of Two Men Who victimized Clifton Mer-
 chants.

The two forgers who victimized Clifton merchants, on Saturday, Nov. l, of cash amounting to practically one hundred dollars, were arrested in Bisbee where they attempted to play the same game, and were brought from there by Sheriff Patty, and are now in the county jail.
 Immediately upon ascertaining the work of the forgers in Clifton, Sheriff Patty began a search in Clifton, of the criminals, and fail ing to find them here, sent advices and descriptions of the men to all officers in Arizona and towns in neighboring states. The result was that his office this week received from officers at B1sbee information that two men answering the des- cription had been arrested in Bisbee, where they attempted to pass forg- ed checks to various merchants. But the merchants refused to accept the checks, and informed officers, who identified the men, from the des- criptions sent them by Sheriff Pat ty. as the men wanted in Clifton,
 Accordingly, Sheriff Patty went to Bisbee this week, and identified thoroughly the suspects as the men wanted here. Bringing them to Cliff ton they. were brought before Judge Burns, at .Metcalf, Judge Leonard, of this Jurisdiction, being absent at Haywood, New Mexico The men, the real names of whom are A .aM. Russell and Wn. Hutchinson, pleaded guilty, and will be brought before Judge Laine, of the Superior Court, for sentence, next Monday, provided that the Judge is not suff- ciently recovered from a recent ill., ness to perform his offices Saturday.
 The two men told Sheriff Patty that they had resided at Miami. Ari- zona for some time before coming to Clifton, where they spent only a few days, having passed the checks Sat urday, and left for Bisbee the next morning.

WATER QUESTION 0F CLIFTON SOON ID
 BE SETTLED.
Councilman Riley Goes Before State Corporation Commission, Which Promises by November 15a
 Decision in Water Case.

Councilman Peter Riley returned by the request of the City Council in regard to the laying before the State Corporation Commission the wishes of Clifton concerning the Commis- sion's early decision of the questions involving service rendered by the Clifton Water Company.
 MT. Riley reports that the Commis- sion gave promise to him that it would reach a decision not later than November 18th.
 This news will be gladly received by both the citizenship of Clifton and the officials of the water company, the former because of the service that hinges upon the fixing by the Commission of rates to be charged by the Company, and the latter because of their desire of exact knowledge of rates to be fixed and authoriyt grant ed concerning the installation of in- creased equipment in order that they might plan accordingly.
 According to Superintendent Heck of the Water Company, at meeting some weeks since, it was definitely decided to begin the installation of greatly increased equipment immedi- ately upon the decision of the Com mission concerning rates and also the Commissions granting of authority in regard to the installation.
 At present the company is not cer- tain that all present large patrons of their system here will continue as users of their service, and because of that were unwilling to install without the Commissions approval, any ex- ltensive improvements in equipmnet. Under pending rulings of the Com mission the Company is allowed to charge a rate that will enable the pay ing of dividend of ten per cent orf the investment, and in addition an earning of four per cent for the de- preciation sustained by the plant. The amount allowed for depreciation is said to be restrictive as the equip ment of the company here, in all probability, will not endure that mum Der of years. Should the company install extensive improvements, and later encounter decreased patron age, this dividend would fall heavily upon the reduced number of users, therefore the approval of the Com mission, in regard to the installation, is desired by the company.
 MT. Riley states that the members of the Commission stated to him that extensive study had been de voted to the question in Clifton, and that out of the maze of facts and figures, and various conditions that met the operation of the system in Clifton, they had finally emerged, and were now almost practically clear upon all points.
 The situation in Clifton has reach ed critical stage, the owners of buildings being constantly in fear of fires, which, probably, because of insufficient. pressure from the water mains, would not be extinguished in time te prevent costly conhagra- tion.

Telephone Connection to Duncan The telephone systems of Duncan and Clifton have at last been con- nected, and service between the two points is now established, to the great appreciation of the public. This service is the resumption of that maintained until several months since, when because of differences not adjusted, the connection was dis continued.

Clifton Citizen Makes Good Invest

Clifton Citizen Makes Good Invest ment-Mr. McDowell, of the A. c. store, returned this week from the Salt River valley section, where he is interested in farm lands, owning at Higley, in the Chandler section, a quarter section of land which he se- cured from the government about three years since. At that time the land was not under the irrigation plan of the Roosevelt dam, but MT. Mcdowell secured it under the pro visions that apply to desert land. Today the accepted selling price since it is irrigated from the Roosevelt project, is one hundred dollars per acre. Of the quarter section, forty acres are now cultivated while all the remainder is susceptible to irri- gation.

Profile. As matter of fact, there was no rip-rap shown on the Profile, although it was intended to be used, and required, for the protection of the road. The Specifications called for Concrete Culverts in places; these have not been built, but replaced by Iron Pipes.
 Here permit me to point out most respectfully to you that the Specifi- cations for all your roads call for Concrete Culverts in places, and in every case with which we are ac- quainted the Contractors have been promptly allowed to replace Con- crete Culyerts with Iron Pipes Your County Surveyor, we are informed, has an understanding with Contract ors (and probably with you as Board) that the difference in cost as between Concrete Culverts and Iron Pipes is to be made up by the Con- tractors in some undefned manner. As your County Surveyor does not know, and could not know the cost Iof building any particular Culvert, and as he certainly does not know detailed costs of placing the Iron Pipes, would you. Cor the County Surveyor) inform the public how you mean to determine the difference in cost as between Concrete Cu4verts and Iron Pipes?
 Reverting to Duncan-Richmond Road Altogether, we understand from the farmers who will use the road, this is most wretched piece Iof road, and it would have been much better to have left at least one half of it undisturbed, and used the ground as it was for road; and that the first heavy rain we have, there will not be. one-half of this road left.
 Metcalf Road Innumerable changes have been made in this road without any written agreements or walls are defective where walls have been built, and there are walls called for in the pecifications-which are very nee cessary, but which have not been built.
 lCllILOn-nlOT04Cl T IOu lAC numerous sub-agreements and verbal agreements that have been entered into with the Contractor since the lcommencement of this road, it is evident there is no intent whatever of having, this road built according to Specifications. We note that as late as November 3rd another Agree ment has been entered into. We would, therefore, be very glad if you will, either by letter or by pub lie statement through the Copper Era,'' advise us where we can find a record of what the Contractor on Morenci Road is supposed to be do ing, and how much he is to be paid.
 Here, as already mentioned, is another case of Iron Pipes being sub stituted for Concrete Culverts. The road is not being excavated accord ing to specifications; and the road is not being crowned as called for in Specifications
