Swift was vacated and the furniture moved across the street into the sample room of the Clifton hotel. Water to a depth of eight inches ran into the Clifton hotel, but no dam age of any consequence resulted.
 In South Clifton the basement of the Brutinel building and the Prin- cess theatre were flooded, caused by back water from the river, coming through drain and sewer pipes. The roadway along the mountain iside connecting East Side with Hills Addition was washed away in places and for a time the only communica- tion between these two sections of town was over the railroad bridge. A short distance above Patterson 5 Addition the pipe line of theClifton Water & Improvement Company was washed away but repairs were made ard service resumed Friday after= noon;
 Wednesday morning a Mexican boy, about fourteen years of age, while catching drift wood with rope, was jerEed into the river, but succeeded in mounting a passing log and was washed, down the river six miles before he could make landing. The boys name was Ariola. His mother was lamenting his death when the boy came tramping- home four hours later, none the worse for his excit- ing experience.
 Advices from the lower Gila Valley state that the river was out of it's banks at Solomonville and Stafford and much damage had been done to farm land.
 At 1Vinkelman in Pinal county the G1a left it's banks and cut a new channel, washing away thirty houses Farmers along the river bottom in Maricopa county were forced to flee to higher ground. At the Roosevelt dam water was pouring over the Ispillways.
 Railway traffic between Arizona and California was demoralized and the first mail into Clifton since Tues day arrived Friday at noon, having
 been transferred around a washout between Guthrie and York.

 for Building Forest Roadways. ..,

Phoenix, Ariz., Jan. 14.-No less than $SOO,O0O will be spent on Ari- zona roads within national forests during the next five years, if Arthur c. Ringland, district forester station ed at Albuquerque, is able to carry cut his plan.
 The receipts from national forests within the borders of Arizona are $27O,000 a year. Twenty percent of this goes to the road and school funds of the various counties and 10 percent is available when collected for roads within the forests. Forester Ringland's plan is to induce congress to pass bill advancing $S00,O00 out of the national treasury for good building, conditional upon it's repay ment as soon as possible out of the forest receipts,
 Gives Lists of Roads.
 Following are the highways that for ester Ringland thinks should be put in condition as soon as possible un- der this plan:
 Fort Apache to Holbrook by way of Pinetop and Snowflake.
 Salt river valley to Holbrook through Pleasant valley.
 Tonto Basin to Winslow through Long valley.
 Luna to Springerville by way of Al pine.
 Showlow to Heber by way of Pine dale.
 Flagstaff to Jerome by way of Oak Creek.

ROBERT MORRISON WILLING ID RUN
 FOR SENATE
Old Guard Leader of the North Being
 Urged By Many To Make the Race

TUCSON, Jan. 20.-Robert E. Nor rison, of Prescott, who is in Tucson today in connection with a Chinese deportation case, stated when asked by Citizen reporter as to whether he would be a candidate on the Republican ticket for United States senator, that many letters are being written to him urging him to run ano that if matters shape up right, he will not refuse. MT. Morrison said that his long residence in Ari- zona and the, fact that he lives in the northern part of the state are mentioned among other reasons by his friends why he should succeed Henry F. Ashurst, who is from the northern part of the state.
 MT. Morrison declares that har- |mony prevails in the party in the north and that Republicans who temporarily left the party sometimes known as Progressives, are more than apt to be reunited with their friends in the coming campaign. A meeting to organize Republican club | is being held in Prescott tonight. MT. Morrison has no choice among
 those mentioned for the Republican nomination for president. He believes
 that it is too early to make choice. By reason of the prospect of har- 
 mony in the party this fall, he con
 siders the chances of electing a Re
 publican governor excellent, and this he believs to be about the most i'm portant thing that the Republicans
 could do for Arizona As for candi
 dates, he says that Tom Pollock oi
 Flagstaff, as well as Tom Campbell
 Of Prescott is being favorably con
 sidered in the north.

MAN KILLED BY WOOD ALCOHOL

DOUGLAS, Jan. 2O.-Blinded and then killed by the effects of wood alcohol which he is supposed to have taken through the medium of bootleg whiskey, Private Phillip Rokholt of Company A, Twenty-second infantry, died yesterday morning at 10 o'clock in the camp infirmary. A board of officers comprised of Capt. Frank H. Adams, First Lieut.. Ira Loganecker and Second Lieut..

INDICATIONS MUCH BRIGHTER

As The Era goes to press this week the indications are brighter than at any time in the past four months for resumption of in- dustrial operations in the Clifton Morenci district. Through the persisten efforts of Messrs. Hen ry Hill and R. R. Webster, in conjunction with Sheriff Cash, acting as independent mediators, looking toward a return to normal conditions, the end of the dis turbed conditions is apparently in sight.

SITUATION HOPEFUL FOR SETTLEMENT
 LONG STRIKE
Former Employees Show Disposition to Accept Proposition of Managers Submitted Through Henry Hill and Reece Webster-Every Indication
 Points to Final Settlement Next Week.

Since the statement issued by the mine managers at Ell Paso to Henry Hill and R. R. Webster, dated Jan. 8tE. no further communication bear ing upon a resumption of operations has been received from that source, with the exception of a refusal to entertain counter proposition sub- mitted by former employees now on strike in this dictrict, which counter proposition stipulated that strikers were willing to return to work for Ia period of fifteen days, at expiration conference with managers must be held, and further that the former en- ployees being cared for in the Dun can refugee camp were not to be brought back to the district until conference had been concluded. The refusal of the mine managers to accept the counter proposition was received by Messrs. Hill and Web , ster on Tuesday.
 On Friday morning of this week another conference between the medi- ators, Sheriff Cash and others con- cerned was held with the result that the first counter proposition submit ited on Tuesday by the former em- lployees was amended to the extent that the men on strike would return i to work under the conditions impos- ld hIy proviso that the refugees at Duncan were not to be brought to the district in body at one time, but were to be brought back in groups as required and their importation to be left to the discretion of Sheriff Cash, Henry Hill and R. R. Webster y.--1-s :; This amended proposition was trans mitted to the managers through the mediation committee on Friday after noon of this week but up to the time of going to press no definite reply had been received.
 . A feeling of optimism, however, is in the air that the strike will be at an end before the expiration of the present month. A large number of i foremen and superintendents are back iE the district

DRILL STRUCK WOOD
 AT 1900 FEET

One of the first deep wells drilled in the West was put down near Huxley, Nev., by the Central Pacific railway in 1881, in a search for good water. The boring reached a depth of 2,75O feet, but the water obtained was of very unsatisfactory quality. At 1,7OO feet the drill encountered a bed of "petrified clans" and the record states that at 1900 it. we'll preserved redwood timber" was found (Overland Guidebook, U. s. Geological Survey.)

During the past two weeks hundreds of letters from former employees of the three large mining companies in this district, who according to the letters, were compelled to leave the district by the strikers, and since that time have been residents of what is called the refugee camp at Dun can, have been pouring into the Gov ernors office at Phoenix.
 The writers of the letters wish to know what protection the Governor can afford them if they see fit to re- turn to the district and resume their several occupations. ,''s
 Instead of replying to the several hundred letters the Governor for warded his reply to the Duncan News with the request that it be published for the information of all concerned. In his reply the Governor very neat ly shifted the responsibility for the protection of unoffending citizens onto the shoulders of the sheriff of Green lee county. A sample of the numerous letters received by the Governor from former employees reads as follows: Hon. Geo. w. P. Hunt, Governor of the State.
 Sir:
 I am living at Duncan at the camp established by the companies, and not knowing how long this camp will be continued by the companies and de siring to go back to the district to work, I appeal to you as Governor of the State to advise what protection you can give me. I was compelled to leave the district owing to conditions there, and I know that with the pro- lection afforded there it will be un- safe for me to go there. ! Yours respectfully,
 
 i Following is a copy of Governor Hunts reply:
 Phoenix, Ariz., Dec. 30, 1915. Dear Sir:
 Your note of the 18th inst, which deals with the Clifton Morenci indus trial trouble, and which is similar in form to several hundred others re- gently received, has had my careful consideration.
 In answer thereto, I may properly suggest that, for the present, the mat ter of preserving the peace and pro tecting unoffending residents within the strike zone devolves upon the authorities of Greenlee county, to whom, accordingly, your letter and those similar to it are being referred for attention.
 l regret any trouble which you and your fellow residents may have ex- perienced as a result of the strike, and assure you of my constant desire of seeing justice guaranteed to all concerned in the present unfortunate situation.
 As it would be exceedingly difficult, If not impossible, for this office, with it's numerous duties and limited force, to make separate reply toeeach of the form letters received, I urgently request you to place the contents of this note, as far as may be practicable before your fellow residents. Yours very truly, , GEO. w. P. HUNT, , Governor of Arizona
