NORTH AND SOUTH
 FOR GOOD ROADS

PHOENIX, April 24.-North and south got together at yesterdays meeting of the executive and advis- ory committees of the Arizona Good Roads Association. Good Roads in Arizona and for Arizona" was the slogan suggested by former president Tom c. Norris of Prescott, who was guest of honor at the luncheon ten dered the members by the president, Dwight B. Heard.
 The future policy of the organiza- ton was discussed and outlined with the slogan in mind, and many good ideas for the betterment of road con Gitions in this state were brought be- fore the business meeting that follow ed the luncheon in the Arizona Club.
 On Mir. Heard's suggestion that there be a conference of the people interested in good roads, it was de cided to call conference, preferably in some city in the south of the state, the date and place to be decided upon by the executive committee. At this meeting it is proposed to have repre- sentatives from each of the nineteen locals of the Arizona association and delegates from each board of super visors and commercial organization.
 An expert on good roads from the department of agriculture will be asked to attend and give a lecture on road subjects. It is proposed to hold at the same time an exhibit of pie lures, showing the results of good road work, scenes along the high ways, as part of d campaign Of edu- cation. State Engineer Cobb, when attending the road convention in Chi cago last fall, had what was voted to be the best set of photos at the ex- hibit, so he will be given charge of this feature.
 The call for the conference will be ready within few days.
 O. A. Hesla, former treasurer Of the association, was here from Pres colt with Mir. Norris: J. H. Null holland attended from Wickenburg, J. B. Cook of Tempe, A J. Chandler of Mesa, w. s. Humbert and H. Clay Parker of Phoenix and others were ill attendance. Supervisor Peterson was unable to be present, but other members of the joint committee were at the meeting, among them J. J. Bowen of Bisbee, State Enginee- Cobb and Lin B. Orme.

POINTS OUT ITS
 DUTY TO THE LEGISLATURE

PHOENIX, April B. Governor Hunt confined his message, aside from a number of glittering general ities, to the urgency of passing the appropriation bill. in part he said: To the Senate and House of Repre-
 sentatives;
 At this particular time, when it again becomes my duty, in fulfill ment of law, and in discharge of the responsibility placed upon me by the electorate, to address the supreme law-making body of the state, l shall not go far afe1d in quest of either pretexts or valid reasons for voluble expression but prefer rather to ft- tingly sound the keynote of the occa- sion by erring, if at all, on the side of brevity in bidding you cordial welcome, in briefly accounting the immediate needs of the state.
 The purposes of the present special session are SO fully contained in the issued call as to need merely empha- sizing rather than elucidating in this brief message to the legislature. Con- cise1y expressed, the state, through lack of appropriations for the main- tenance of departments, and because of the absence of any statute giving specific directions for fixing the rates of taxes during the two fiscal years next ensuing, is confronting an actual .crisis of such serious aspect and pro portions as to impose upon legislative and executive officers alike the neces- sity of prompt and judicious effort toward securing the adoption of such provident. measures as will permit the continued competent discharge of public business.
 1 While it is plainly the part of re- dundance to dwell in passing upon the gravity of an emergency which is evident to the most casual ob- server. 1 shall, nevertheless, even at the risk of trite reiteration, suggest most earnestly the essential nature of monetary provision for depart mental and institutional use, and of conserving through a speedy con summation of legislative work, the resources of the people, who, inevit- ably, must always bear the burden ot taxation. To pursue any other course, or to utterly fail in the dis charge of manifest duty would very apparently create condition so ap- palling and so clearly repugnant to the general welfare as to transcend even the possibility of contemplating and need not, therefore, be admitted as worthy of serious consideration.

CLARK TRIAL IS SLOW;
 TO TAKE WEEK MORE
(From Sundays Daily.)

D. M. Clark's fate still remains un decided, the jury after hearing testi mony of two witnesses yesterday having been excused in the early part of the afternoon and the trial con tinued until 9:3O Monday morning.
 The trial is rather tedious and mon- otonous as the testimony being given by the witnesses and the questions being raised by the attorneys arc practically the same as in the formc. trial in which the jury disagreed after all the evidence had been presented to them. The trial is dragging be cause the objections by both attor' neys for defense and the prosecution to questions asked the witnesses by their opponents are innumcrable and it will probably be another week be

(From Tuesdays Daily.)

The most exciting or sensational occurrence of the D. NJ. Clark trial took place yesterday afternoon when one of the jurors, C. E. Robertson, who was summoned from Jerome, be- came very i'll with a sick headache and caused the entire jury to be ex- cuscd by Judge Cooper for 20 min utes, otherwise nothing of special note happened that was not brought up in the former trial last fall.
 Yesterday nine witnesses were placed on the stand by the prosecu- ton. two members of the board of supervisors: also the clerk and six men who had been in the employ of the county on the roads either as cooks or as workmen during Clark 5 administration in the position of road superintendent. William Stephens, chairman of the board of supervisors, was the first witness on the stand and he testified that Clark in the boarding camps he run got $l per day from each man up to the last 20 days of June, 1914, when the county began to receive this money. In these camps all supplies, equipment and sleeping quarters were furnished by Clark.
 Harry Heap, another member of Iii 4I,, -T,,,I fed that Clark by arrangement with the board of supervisors was placed in full supervision of the road work, was allowed to hire men, keep their time and pay them with road ccrtif- icates. He also told of the arrange mcnt between the Prescott National Bank and the board to pay Clark $ salary and the road certificates until

ANOTHER HEAVY MIN
 ING DEAL IS CLOSED
(From Sundays Daily)

NEIOlh SuhOdg OdhJJ Negotiations that had been pend ing for several months between the Juanita Mining Company, on deal for their large holdings in Crook Canyon, and N. H. Getchell and Fred D. Darragh, were closed yesterday, whereby the latter take ove- this property. Quite a heavy payment was made, but the consideration was withheld.
 Messrs. Getchell and Darragh were in Prescott yesterday and confirmed the sale as being closed, as well did they announce their plan of opera tions. The property is to be taken over tomorrow. The mill will begin treating ore on May 1, at the rate of 25 tons per day, its full capacity. Ad- ditionaI units have been ordered and 50 tons per day are to be handled inside of the next two months. A force of miners will be placed at work at once and several thousand tons of a good grade of free milling ore are ready for stoping. Surface improvements at the camp will begin immediately, and permanency is the motive ot these we'll known mining men.
 Has Good Future.
 Getchell is recognized as a capable and practical mining operator, and his record as general manager of the Y.-P. mines is a creditable reflection of his ability in getting that proposi- ton ready for production and on a basis of pcrmanency for the future, Darragh. on the other hand, IS equipped with many years experience in milling, and will have charge of that department in the new under taking.
 Remains With Company.
 Mir. Getchell stated yesterday this shifting into new venture will not affect his relations with the Y.-P. Company. He will continue its man agcr to carry out certain deep de ve1opment, and conduct production after certain matters are adjusted, which will take place in very short time. He is quite optimistic over its future. and as well as other mines in that belt.
 The above deal, in short, is an other straw to show the trend ot capital toward mining in this held, and the taking over of the Juanita by practical miners, brings another old time property into prominence again.

MOTION TO SET
 CLARK FREE DENIED
(From Saturdays Daily.)

AFIOlu Odlul udy , DoiJJ
 Over-ruling the demurrer of the de fense which asked that D. NJ. Clark, charged with padding the county pay rolls, be set free because of the in sufficicncy of the complaint, Judge Cooper again put Clark's fate to the mercy of the jury before whom he is being tried,
 During the trial yesterday one of the main points of the defense seem cd to be to bring out through teStl- monv and otherwise ill their argu- mcnts with attorneys for the prose cution the fact that the board of SUI pc-visors violated the state laws when they accepted the road certificates through which Clark is said to have dcfrauded the county. The attempt to emphasize such testimony was per sistcnt1y fought by the prosecution whose objections to it in most in stances were sustained by Judge Cooper.
 The prosecution, led by County At torney O'Sullivan, with his assistant l ]. H. Morgan, entered 13 exhibits yesterday, and placed four witnesses on the stand who were examined and then turned over to Attorneys Ander- son and Clark for cross-examination
 The exhibits were warrant issued by the supervisors for demand on the county from the Prescott Nation al Bank for money and interest paid out by them on road certificates. The demand and some of the certificates were among the exhibits. One of the certificates was that issued to Frank Clinesmith who was called to the stand and testified that he was min ing man and had lived in the county for about 19 years. During October 1913, he had been hired by a Mr. Fox foreman under Clark, and had been placed on a county road i'll Slate creek where he worked six days on the road and then worked the rest oi the month in one of Clark's mines nca- there and for this he had receiv- cd a road certificate. Exhibit 1, his road certificate, was then shown to him and he identified it as the one he had received and indorsed. After he , had indorsed it ne said he gave it to Clark who few days later gave him , two checks, one for SIP and the other i for $62. These Clark told him were tor his months work. the first for the road work and the second for the work in the mine. Lat>r on in July

had no money on hand the Prescott National Bank through an arrange ment with the county would accept the certificates and salary demand and put them to the credit of Clark who had his check account there. The county would pay interest on the sum until it could pay the bank.
 The county attorney said that Frank Clinesmith had been employed by Clark on the road near Slate creek where Clark owns a mine and that in stead of working on the road Cline smith had been used in Clark's mine and had been paid at the end of the month on a county road certificate Clinesmith working on the road SIX days of the month and in Clark's mine the other portion of the time.
 "We will also prove to you" he said, that Clark had Michael Freder' icks work in his mines and one the roads for about three months and paid him with county road certificates at the rate of s per day. Many other incidents of this kind will be given you and we will prove that they were all done deliberately by Clark. He also paid cooks in his employ at his boarding houses on county road cer tifcates representing them as labore-s on his pay roll after the county had once refused to pay any cooks on his pay roll. County Examiner Plunkett will testify that when he was here tc examine Clark's accounts that Clark failed to turn over to him 200 alleged checks. With this evidence" said O'Sullivan, concluding his address I've will expect you to find Clark guilty"
 Tn Attorney E. s. Clark's address to the jury which followed, he said that the defense would prove that 1T place of Clinesmith's time spent IT Clark's mines, an expert toolsharpenel who was being paid by Clark worked on the county roads sharpening tools and his work and time were equiva lent to those of Clinesmith. Tt will also be shown" he said, that in ev- cry instance where a man had beer used by Clark in his mine another be ing paid by him would be shown tc have worked for the county. Because of the remotcness of road camps i had always been a custom of tho county to have county cooks and pay for their work and we expect to prove that the supervisors had told Clark tc go ahead and hire county cooks ant they would pay for them. This wa' done after Clark had complained tc the supervisors that he could not al ford to run camp kitchens and keel cooks because he was losing on 1t We will prove that the county ha' confiscated all of Clark's cooking property and it has never been re turned to him. Clark was not willing to turn the checks over to Plunkett but was willing to let him examine them at any time. All this will b' proven and we will expect a vcrdic O: not guilty"
