Arizona Road Book.

The Arizona road book, upon which
 Hamilton and Locke. the two young engineers, have been at work on the
 past year, has made its appearance.
 It is one of the best works of the kind ever issued and speaks worlds for the ability of the men that produced it. To get the data for the work the gentlemen travelled in their automo- bile a distance of 10000 miles over all kinds of roads within and without the state. The book contains 200 maps, showing every road and turnout in Arizona, together with the gradients, streams. springs, landmarks and every class of information that might be use- ful to the tourist or traveller. The cover shows reproduction of scene in the Grand Canyon in three colors, while the whole book is filled with of the scenes along each of the routes depicted. Taken as whole the book is unique in road map ping works and should meet with ready sale throughout the country.

Something of scare was thrown in- to the Indians of this part of the county by the announcement that a Mexican had died suddenly, north of Blackberry, the first of the week with smallpox. Another report went the rounds that it was an Indian who had died from the dread disease. It now appears that Mexican and white man had used the smallpox scare to drive some Indians away from a spring they had been using, some miles north of Blackberry. The Indians had gone to the Indian school with sick child and when they returned to their rancherie they found it in possession of the white and Mexican men, who told them that Mexican had died there the day before. As this did not scare the Indians they threatened to shoot them and the Indians came to town and reported the matter to the officers

Advisory Election
 of U. s. Officers

Hon. Henry F. Ashurst, U. s. Sen ator, wires the Miner the following relative to the proposed advisory elec- tion of U. s. Judge for the district of Arizona, and U. s. Marshal and other officers to be appointed for Ari- zona by President Wilson. The follow ing is the context of the telegram:
 Washington, D. C., April l3, 1913. Mohave County Miner, Kingman, Ariz.
 l am anxious to see advisory election held in Arizona at earliest practicable date, in order that the people may have an opportunity to express their choice for Federal Judge. The con- stitutional amendment allowing the people directly to choose their senators will soon be ratified by the required number of states and surely the people should have a right to make an eX- preSsion as to their choice for federal judge, especially in view of the fact that the federal judge holds hls posi- tion for all practical purposes for life. Will you kindly. through the medium of your valuable paper, urge that proper petitions be prepared, signed and filed calling for the advisory cleo, tion to the end that their two senators from Arizona may present to the Presi- dent of the United States the name of the gentlemen who will be the peoples choice. Kindly publish this telegram and any cooperation or assistance you can give Tn bringing about the advis- may have an opportunity to vote on this matter, will earnestly be apprec- ated by me. I wish advisory election might be held to ascertain the peoples choice on all federal appointments in Arizona.
 HENRY F. ASHURST.
 The editor of the Miner has inter- viewed a number of Kingman people, as well as some prominent Arizonans on the outside, and we find them un- animous for this advisory election. It is understood that President Wilscn is in favor of this method of the seec. tion of men who are to preside over the destinies of the people for life or for at least four years, and will make the appointments of men who have been so selected.

Dr.. WiIde's Lecture.

Last Saturday evening Dr. A. IL. Wilde lectured to rather fair sized audience at Elks Hall on the subject of the High School and it's advantages to the local public. As the matter of high school will soon have it's place in the public minds of the people of this county, it should have attracted more attention, but those that heard Dr. Wilde were treated to an exception ally fine discourse on this subject. The subject of high school and its many advantages and disadvantages were fully and carefully pointed out by the lecturer.
 During the day R. w. Clothier, of the agricultural department, with a number of Kingman people, went over the Wallapal valley, taking in the small farms and winding up the trip at Anteras, where A. N. Keech has large acreage under cultivation, and gave his views to the audience as to the possibility of this great valley from dry farming standpoint. In his opinion, With a rainfall in excess of ten inches, the valley may be made productive, but with lesser precipi- taton no crops could be grown. App parently some one told Mir. Clothier that the precipitation in the valley was about eight inches, which is a mistake, as the average rainfall Is above fifteen inches, which, in his opinion. would ,lake crops every year. The valley, he stated, was one Of the richest in soil quality of any in Arl- zona, and that many thousands of acres could and would in time be farmed.
