cated. The writer was a member of the committee intrusted with the
 task of looking over the several pos sible courses and directing the sur Veys.
 With a familiar knowledge of the entire region between MorristoWn and
 Wickenburg, and a thorough ac-
 quaintance with all of the circum
 stances surrounding the building of the road. I unhesitatingly declare that
 the Tub Springs route is the only
 practicable one between the points
 named, and the only one connecting
 with the Hassayampa bridge shortly
 to be built al Wickenburg: that any
 road built along the Hassayampa notions must necessarily, at the most favorable seasons, traverse long stretches of deep sand, and be en tirolv impossible during periods Of high water; that any highway built across the mouths of San Domingo ard other washes emptying into the lTass avampa would be entirely de- stroyed at each recurring freshet; and, in short, that the Tub Springs road, as now located. affords the best and practically the only feasible route between Morristown and Wick i anburg.
 I wish to state that, in common with all of the people of the Wick
 cnburg region, I would welcome the

A physician tells a story Of a phil anthrOpic doctor in a Pennsylvania mining town who gave a new ther- mometer to each family with the ur' gent advice to keep their houses at proper temperature.
 When he was making his rounds one day he saw his thermometer hanging in the room. He asked the woman of the house if she remem- bered his instructions.
 Indeed, I do sir" was the response T hand the thing right up there and I watch it carefully to see it does not get too high
 Good" exclaimed the doctor. And what do you do when the temperature rises above 70 degrees?"
 Why. sir" answered the woman, with the air of one faithful to a trust, when it gets too high I take it down and put it outside until it cooIs off.'-NeWark Star.

best sort of road that can be built the sands of the Hassayampa river and bottom lands, provided such --o;-G is made t". stand on it's oN.l. merits. But the sponsors of the proposed new line up the river pro pose if possible, to make their pro jcctcd thor0ughfare the one and only county highway between MorristoWn and Wickenburg, to the special and definite exclusion of the Tub Springs route, which, according to their peti- ton. as reported in the article above alluded to. they ask the county super VisorS to abandon.
 If there is q possibility that the supervisors could feel any disposition to nullify the actions of their pre- decessors and to practically destroy the usefulness of the great north and south highway by granting the peti- tion in question, it would certainly be up to them to carefully investigate the facts in the case before taking any important action. And I would respectfully suggest that they inquire into the reasons for the apparent de- termination of the signers of that petition to turn the traffic by the doors of the small river resort in the fortunes of which so many of them are interested.

reasons:
 The entire district is of an exceed ingly broken and rugged formation, and iS traversed by a large number of guIches and sand washes emptying into the river each of which .must necessarily be crossed by the pro- posed highway, no matter how abrupt their banks nor how deep the sand in their beds might be About two miles below Wickenburg the bluffs close in to the very margin of the river and crowd the line of the pro posed road fairly into the bed of the stream, making it necessary to cross ] the Hassayampa to the west bank in a diagonal course, through a long stretch of sand that practically has no bottom\ The only alternative in 1 this last tWo-mile section below i Wickenburg was to skilt the rugged bluffs hugging the eastern margin l of the stream. hewing and blasting 1 out a roadway at an expense that
 would be prohibitive The numerous i gulches and washes alluded to, with ] their high and steep banks and their beds of almost bottomIess sand l would have to be bridged if any l permanent foundation for a roadway was to be provided. After due con sideratiOn it was decided that the only possible solution of the problem was to drop back from the river sufficient distance to head the can i yOns and washes, where the road could be located on a solid and per manent formation without the ex- pense attending the building and maintenance of bridges.
 This course was followed, and the line touching Tub Springs, with it's unfailing supply of living water, was finally selected. The supervisors of both Maricopa and Yavapai counties, together with a committee of Wicken- burg citizens. visited the ground. and after acquainting themselves with the situation united in approving the route as located. The cost of con stiucting the road was borne by the two counties All of the expenses connected with the preliminary in Vestigation ard the two surveys were paid by the people of Wickenburg If ever highway was located in ac- cOrdanCe with the unanimous judg- ment of the people to be served by it the Tub Springs road was so To-
