That depth and development will dis close red metal deposits throughout the Jerome district is the opinion of mining men who have been attracted , to the camp since il began to boom with the discovery of the United Verde Extension.
 They are convinced that copper ore bodies of value are well distributed in the district and not confined to one particular location. basing their opin- ion upon geological conditions
 On the Verde North Fault the sur face indications are identical with those nearer Jerome. The same limestone and iron capping ironstained porphyry and monZonsite which oVerlies the ricn copper ores in the immediate vicinity of Jerome and led to their location. can be traced several miles beyond the Arkansas and Arizona. To the south of the recognized pay belt there are also unusual surface show ngs that lead to the belief that the Verde copper district is extensive.

There have been repeated reports that ore has been struck al the Arkansas and Arizona. the property that lies in the main mineral belt of the district. hut the report has proved to be noth- ing more than a rumor.

Authorizes Vouchers.

Governor Hays issued deficiency
proclamations authorizing the State
Highways Commissions to issue youch'
ers on the state highway fund for ST.
500 TO pay incidental expenses and
authorizing State Treasurer r. G. Nc
Daniel 10 issue vouchers for $1,000 on
the general revenue fund TO pay for
printing for his Office. The printing
appropriation for the treasurer's Office
was vetoed by the governor.
The proclamation to the highways
commission makes a total Of $500 au'
thorized more than the amount the
legislature appropriated. This expen-
diture was made necessary by the In
creased amount OF surveys required
since the Alexander road law went
INTO effect. Under the recent interpr1-
tation of the law Uy the Supreme
Court all plans and estimates for dis
tricts organized under the Alexander
law must in future be prepared BY
the commission.

1000 miles Of road at a cost OF be
tween S15 and $50 per mile.

GERMANS ADVISED TO
OBSERVE THE LAWS
COUNT Won BERNSToRFF DELlV.
ERS MESSAGE RECEIVED
FROM BERLIN s}

Washington. - Germany, through
Count Won Bernstorff. has instructed
all German consuls in the United
States TO admonish German clulzens
in their districts to scrupulously OBJ
serve American laws. This was done
in an effort to end various alleged vlo'
lations of American neutrality.
The ambassador acted on instruc-
tions from the Berlin Foreign Office,
The action was announced in this Of
fetal statement from the German en-
bassy:
in consequence of cases which
have occurred of late the German am
bassador has sent instruction to all
German consults in the United States
to strongly impress upon German citi-
zens living in their districts that it IS
their duty scrupulously to obey the
laws of the state in which they re-
side"
1t was said at the German embassy
that the instructions were designed
to prevent plots or lawlessness On the
part OF the German citizens who
might be disposed to engage IN such.
The German government, it was said,
looks with great disfavor upon any
such conduct and desires that they
shall NOT engage in anV undertaking
in any way outside the law.
1t was not disclosed whether speci'
fic cases have been brought to the at
tention of the German government,
bat it was made clear that Berlin Of
ficials want the United States and its
people TO understand that they have
not countenanced any illegal affairs
with which German citizens or sympa-
thlzers in this country have been
connected.
