Roads Breed Roads

It is universal experince that
one mile of good roads breeds an
.other mile. Put a State wide, good
road down anywhere in this
country and in ten years there
will be dozens of good road S
reaching it from all parts of the
State. Put down a system Of
National Highways, built and
maintained by the National
Government, and the various
State Legislatures and county
officials would soon see the ad-
vantages of connecting all parts
of the states with those National
roads.
There are two million miles of
roads in the United States The
fifty thousand miles of highway
shown on the map is but fraction
over two per ceut of this mileage.
But improve these fifty thousand
miles into good roads, and keep
them good roads by proper
maintenance, and fifty thousand
mile~ more would grow almost
over night, and then another fifty
thousand and another and an
other, until our great country,
with it's hugh territory, would be
crossed and recrossed with good
roads, as France is today.

National Convention of
StOckmen

Phoenix, Ariz., Jan. 18. 1913.
The National Live Stock Con-
vention has just finished it's ses-
sions and is said, by all who at
tended, that it was the most en-
thusiastic and the most widely
attended ever held in the history
of the Association.
Thirty-five states were repre-
sented by delegates and over
five hundred delegates took part
and attended the sessions, even
Canada was represented.
Every minute was an interest
ing one and every delegate goes
back home feeling that it was
time and money we'll spent in
coming to this convention, in
m1d-winter and yet beautiful and
sunny.
On Tuesday night the Conven-
tion was banqueted at the beau
tiful Hotel Adams the round
up" lasted till 2 o'clock in the
morning, and no record was kept
of the camp fire stories or the re-
lating of pioneer days but every
body was happy.
On Friday about $50 automo-
biIes carrying something like
1000 men and 300 women left at
9 o'clock for Granite Reef for
one Of the biggest barbecues
ever planned, and to see the
beautiful Salt River valley and
the Roosevelt Diversion dam. No
one will tell you that he can, in
fitting language, describe this
trip.
All in all, this convention was
a record breaker and for love-
feasting, good will and meeting
of old friends it made the stock
men feel like boys" again.
Those attending from Greenlee
and Graham counties were: w.
T. Witt, Duncan: John R. Cromb
and L. F. Sweeting, Clifton; A.
T. Wilson, Double Circle; w. E.
Cureton, Steeplerock, On. NJ 2.

The next convention goes to
Denver.
Hon. Dwight B. Heard, vice.
president Of the association and
of the Arizona Republi-
can worked increasingly for the
success of the convention and
proved that Phoenix was all that
he had represented her to be,
and then some.

Hearne's Record.

The record Of the Hon. Julian G,
Hearne. Republican nominee for
Congress in this district, while a
member Of the state legislature,
shows that he is progressive along
all lines Of legislation. Not only
was he a staunch supporter Of the
public utilities bill. the primary cleo
ton bill and other important legis-
iati6n, but in every instance he
proved himself a friend Of the la
boring man.
It was while a member Of the
House of Delegates in 1909 that Mr..
Hearne introduced and had passed
the bill providing for the protection
Of street railway employees by hav-
ing them sheltered from inclemnt
weather. House bill, No. s3, intro
dueed and pushed by Mr.. Hearne.
became Chapter "a of the Acts OF
1903 and gave to the street railway
employees what they had been fight
ing for for years. The bill was
pushed in the Senate by Senator
Hatfield, now governor. and Senator
Robert Hazlett.
Section i OF that law provides:
From and after the first day of
November, 1909. 1t shall be unlawful
FOR any person, partnership or cor
poration. owning or operating a
street railway in this state, or for any
officer or agent thereof jhav-
Ing charge or control OF the manage
ment of such line Of railway, or the
cars thereof. operating electric, cable
or other cars propelled either by
steam. cable or electricity, which re-
quires the constant services, care
or attention OF any person or persons
upon the platforms sof any such car
to require or permit such services, at
tention or care of any of its en-
ployees, or any other person or per
sons, unless such person. partner
ship or corporation, its officers or
experimenting or managing agents.
have first provided the platforms OF
said cars with a proper and sufficient
enclosure constructed of wood, iron,
glass or similar suitable material,
sufficient to protect such employees
from exposure to the winds and in
clemencies OF the weather.
AS introduced and passed by the
House the bill contained section
prohibiting the use of running boards
on the sides of the cars and COM
PEELED open aisles through the cen
tiers, but the Senate amended the
bill striking out this section.
This is only single instance OF
where Mr.. Hearne has taken up the
fight for the working man. His vote
for the workmen's compensation fund
act, the greatest gain ever mafe IN
the state for the laborer, is another
instance. His record is full of sucn
instances.
