Road Bill Gives state .777.soo.

Road Bill Gives State $777,500
Michigan congressman have been
asked by State Highway Commission
er Frank Rogers to vote for and help
pass ths proposed federal good road
law, which is to be introduced at this
session OF congress as result of the
work of the American Association Of
Stats Highway officials.
Under the proposed law Michigan
would receive approximately $777.-
500 from the government for use in
state highways. This In itself
should influence the Michigan con-
gressmen to support It," says Mr..
Rogers, who was one of the commit
tee of the members of the American
Association Of Highway Omcials
which drafted the bill.
The bill calls for big appropria-
ton for good road systems. It is dis
tributed to the various states on
basis which Rogers considers most
equitable by the department of agri-
culture. There are three requisite COM
binations.
In the first, one-third OF the whole
appropriation is split up among the
states on the ratio which the area of
each state bears to the whole area.
The next third is in the ratio Of the
states population to the complete pop
ulation OF the combined states; the
last third is distributed. using the
mileage of post roads each state has,
when compared with the total mile
age of post roads in the country. All
of the work is to be actually done I'M
der the supervision OF the various
state highway departments.
This BILL" says Mr.. Rogers, lis
more like the Michigan highway law
than any other bill that has been in
troduced, and l feel quite safe in say
ing that no highway law in any other
state has resulted in producing so
many miles Of improved roads at q
small cost within ten years of it's
enactment, as has the Michigan law.
"Michigan's portion OF the proposed
appropriation will be $777.500. This.
with money that il now expended in
Michigan by the state am the sew
eral counties and townships would
result in great addition to the roads
we are now building. Michigan has
already completed 3.765 miles Of roads
which have been accepted By the
state. and there 10 fully enough mile
age under way and partly completed
to bring those figures up to 1000 miles
by June 80. 1916"

OUTLOOK FOR CAMP
 HIGHLY PROMISING

Oatman is getting better every day and capital is becoming optimistic re- garding the entire district and it's latent wealth. Many of the properties which have been closed down during the hot weather for the lack of funds, have been financed or are being financed and will soon again become active.
 The latest property to resume is the Oatman Syndicate. The property is under the management of George W. Long and J. L. McIvor and is being backed by such men as J. Park Chan ming. llr. Long stated yesterday that the Syndicate is amply financed and that active development will be car ried on. For the present development wilI be confined to prospecting the vein, and it is expected that within a reasonable period that the property will prove to be one of the big mines of the district
 The first difficulty to overcome in the resumption of work is the un- watering of the workings which have filled since the closedown three months ago. This work, however, will not prove very difficult, owing to the fact that adequate pumping equipment has been installed.
 It is stated that several other prop critics under the management of Long & McIvor will resume operations with in the next 30 days. Mining men ac- quainted with conditions here state that 90 per cent of the properties at present closed down will resume op- erations within 50 days.

GIFT OF ARIzONANS
 ID ARIZONA" CREW PLACED ON DISPLAY

NJ. A. Murphy of Flagstaff arrived in Kingman Monday morning, having in his charge the magnificent silver service which is to be presented to the latest and greatest dreadnaught of the American fleet of battleships- ''The Arizona"
 The solid silver service was design ed and made by Reid & Martin of Taunton, Mass. It will be presented by the people of Arizona to the bat tleship and consists of 70 pieces, each and everyone carrying an especial en- graving taken from historic points of interest amid the vast plains of Ari- zona, the largest of which is a scene of the San Francisco mountains.
 The silver service is being exhibited in the different cities of the state in order that the people of the state may know what they presented to the new, big battleship. The service cost S8OOO.
 It is impossible to describe satis- factorily the many pieces of exquisite beauty, but those interested may view the exhibit in the show windows of the Arizona Stores company, where it will be on display until Wednesday morning.
 At a meeting of the State Board of Trade, held recently in Phoenix, it was decided that each county be assessed its pro rata on it's taxable property to raise the amount necessary for the silver service. Mohave county's pro rata amount was fixed at $500.

ARIZONA GROSS BAR
 SINKING TWO SHAFTS
 AT JUNCTION OF VEINS

Over in he Union Pass section, close into Sheeptrail, Arabian and Co., lumbia veins, the Arizona Cross-Bar Mining company has begun sinking two shafts at the junction of the other big veins of the district and have ore from the grassrOots. Work is being swiftly accomplished by Supt. J. S. Harrison, one of the well known min ing men of that section.
 Bunk houses and mining machinery are being put in readiness for exten- sive development work An unusually good showing has been made, which justifies further and more extensive work
 Charles Oster of New York is per sonally on the ground, representing large New York interests. The work will be rapidly carried on with force of miners. The property of the corpo- ration are well situated and have ex- cellent outcrops of ore.

TIMES WILL SOON
 AGAIN BE ACTIVE

It is predicted that before the end of the present month Oatman will have as many operating properties as it ever had in the boom days of last fall and winter. Several prop critics which have been closed down for various reasons have resumed operations, and all are well financed.
 A year ago many of the properties which were sinking and doing other development work were not financed for more than 30 days ahead. Of course there were many exceptions to this rule, and some of the best inan- ced properties suspended work during a portion of the warm weather.
 One of the properties which will soon resume work is the Times. This information was furnished yesterday by one of it's largest stockholders. It is the intention of the management to resume operations immediately after the meeting of the stockholders on October 10. The shaft will be sunk to greater depth and the already ex- posed vein will be explored to a greater extent. Talk of the building of a mill is common among the larger stockholders of the company.
 It is also said that other properties in the Times section will resume work in the near future. One of the prop critics which it is expected will start sinking soon is the Blue Pine, which adjoins the Times and Hercules.

SPRINGER CUT BY
 RED CLOUD SHAFT

The Red Cloud shaft of the Tom Reed Mining company is the center of attraction in Oatman these days. Recently a rich stringer was cut in the shaft which is said to be identical with the first stringers exposed in the United Eastern shart No. 1 eighteen months ago.
 The Red Cloud is directly north of the Eastern, and it is thought, on the same vein. Should the main vein be cut in this shaft it will aid other properties to the north of the Eastern to locate the orebody which is thought continues through that sec tion.
 A short time ago the Arizona Cen tral cut rich stringer at a depth of 300 feet which is thought by mining men to be the same stringer.
 The United Western so far has failed to locate the orebody, but should 1t be encountered by the Arizona Cen tral and Red Cloud it will be helpful to the Western in locating it.

 The Chloride speakers will be Gov ernor Hunt, Carl Hayden, Charles R. Howe, Sidney P. Osborn and Wiley E. Jones.
 The places and exact time of the meetings have not as yet been ar ranged.
 ". P. Mahoney, nominee for the state senate from Mohave county, re- ceived the above information yester- day, with the request that he arrange the meetings, which he will do with the aid of the committeeman of the towns named.
 It is with regret that the many friends of Governor Hunt learn that he will be unable to speak in Oatman. The places and time of the meetings are entirely in the hands of the state central committee and it is for that reason that many members of the par ty will be unable to come to Oatman. The party will visit the more impor- tant towns of the state and, therefore, they will be unable to stop very long in any one place during the month of October.

NATIONAL GUARD
DOWNED BY FAST
Marine GRlDDERS

The National Guard eleven received
somewhat of a surprise yesterday
evening when they lined up against
the Marine Corps football team for a
practise game.
The Marines came up at o'clock
and were forced to wait until 4:30
to play. 1t was very difficult for the
Guard to scrape together eleven men,
but finally enough to begin signals
were raked in, and the game was
off. 49,: ~.
Such an exhibition of football has
rarely been seen on Alexander field.
The N. G. H. has the men and the ma
terial in plenty, but the men had new
er run signals together before, and OF
course there was no such thing as
team work or interference. ~
Through three quarters the n. g.. H.
team had opportunities to score, only
to lose them through failure of some
one to read signals. Near the close
of the fourth quarter the Marines
worked series of forward passes to
within 10 yards of the Guards goal.
Then on a long pass to Matthews,
end, the ball was juggled around
among four men for several seconds,
Matthews finally catching it and
falling just across the goal line.
Marines failed to kick goal. Final
score, 60 .....>- IT,. -. .
The Guard will take this lesson OF
their first scrimmage keenly to heart
and get down to hard practise this
week There are several very weak
spots and slow spots in the team, but
there is ample material on the squad;
all that is necessary is to find just
the right men for these places and
work them as team for awhile.
The n. G. H. VS.. Ind Infantry game
next Saturday is the first of the ser
vice series. ........

Cobb. Regular Fellow - -.
F. Il enjoyed my visit very much with
the Georgia Peach, and found him a
real gentleman in every way He
didn't take on as much airs as some
bushers. The boys saw Cobb in action
and there is no question about his
ability in all lines.
1T was a shame that the promotion

to boost Hawaii more than we did
Everywhere We went we talked Ha.

surely gave the people an idea OF
music as it is played here. II was a
successful trip throughout, and main
land people wherever we went asked
us questions about the Paradise OF
the Pacific.
Big Publicity
AS an example of the publicity we
gave Hawaii, it would be well to men
ton that we played before approx
mately 100000 people in all parts OF
the United States. These people were
watching us for about two hours each
day, and if We had been supplied with
literature could have done wonders
in inducing tourists to come to Ha'
waii. At some of the games we had
as many as 1000 people watching the
battle, and only on few occasions
was the attendance under 1000. Alto.
gether we played 1872 games, so We
naturally had an opportunity to lei
the people know that Hawaii is on
the map.
Everywhere we went we found mu.
sicians, and this feature is another
big help in boosting Hawaii OF
course the boys did not have the op,
portunity to play before the crowds
that we did, but nevertheless music is
