ANOTHER LARGE MINE MOVE
 ASSURED
RED MOUNTAIN COMPANY HOLDS FIRST ANNUAL MEETING IN PRESCOTT AND WILL BEGIN DE- VELOPMENT AT ONCE.
(From Saturdays Daiiy)

T
 The first annual meeting of the Red Mountain Consolidated Copper Mines Company was held in Prescott or Thursday evening, full attendance of local stockholders being present and affairs shaped up by which active and large operations were decided upon to begin at once. The board oi directors elected was as follows: C. E. Meyers. James H. Sullivan. J. L. Anderson, w. ]. Peterman. H. II. Gil lespie, J. s. Smith, F. l.. Haworth. F. Brose and D. w. Caulkins. After this official action, the following off cers were chosen for the ensuing year: C. E. Meyers, president; James H. Sullivan, vicc-president; D. w CaulkinS, Sccretary-treasurer; F. Brose, assistant secrctary-treasurer. Mir. Meyers later was unanimously elected as general manager and he left the city yesterday to begin hi. duties, for which he is well qualified, enjoying Statewide prominence as a gcologist and engineer.
 The affairs of this newly organized undertaking were shown to be in a condition which met with the appro- val of all, while the report of the man. agement, read and endorsed by all stockholders, covered financing, pur. chasing of material, machinery and other operating utilities. An excel lent phase of this new mining move ment was reflected in all present deeming it advisable to proceed at once to begin development and fol this purpose the proposition was shown to be practically financed. Two cars of machinery are now cn rout. to the camp, and it is the intention to swing into action earnestly and on practical lines early next week.
 Associated with this movement are many stockholders of Prescott and Phoenix, and acting as unit all have deemed it expedient and advisable for Oi lfiN Oh OA ihN ton to offer any stock for sale. The group owned by the Rcd Mountain numbers 2l claims, and is situated in Maricopa county near the Yavapai line When originally worked, over 20 years ago, primitive methods pre- vailed, and it is duo to the cxamina, tions conducted by Mir. Meyers and also an engineer of the Ray Consoli- dated that the corporation was organ ized short time ago. Recent devel- opment gives this property an excel lent outlook. The values arc gold copper and silver in the order named. Several Prescott stockhold- CTS expressed themselves yesterday as very much pleased oyer definite ac
 ton being taken to begin operations

WORK 0N SHORT LINE ROAD ID
 JEROME ID BEGIN FIRST OF APRIL
(From Tuesdays Daily.)


 this year on the money available, let that portion be built, and another stretch next year, and the road will finally be a reality. Personally I believe the people should have the say in determining how their money should be spent, and they have un- mlstakably made manifest their views by signing the petition addressed to this board, and which is now befo,. you for action.
 "As to the benefits which will &C., crue from the building of the short line, l can see no reason to doubt but that both towns will be substan- tially helped. The road will be worth S5O,OOO month to Prescott and as much to Jerome and will cut down the mileage and the time between the two points at least in half"
 The other members of the board. Mcssrs. Stukey and Jaeger not withstanding Mir. Stephens attitude, shortly afterwards voted to petition the State Highway department to use. the S6000. which is due Yavapai county from the State fund, for this particular improvement, and thereby caused Engineer Atwood to direct the removal of large force of men from the State road camp at King man to Jerome to start work on the road about April lst.
 MT Atwood stated that the men would begin working from the ls.. onfe end of the route, and would go as far as the funds would permit. :; If, before the S60,0OO is expended, addi- tional will be needed, it was sug- gested that some of the larger cor porations in this county be asked to advance the money. and at this point Supervisor Stephens stated that in case this was done, he would seek to enjoin the county from accepting any funds secured in this manner, and that the county would be a party sn an illegal act in anticipating in this manner any levy whichit might make in the future. < C f
 In spite of the continued opposi- ton of NIT. Stephens. it is believed that the project is now we'll under way, and that it has passed the stage where it can be stopped by any man or small group of men who are op- posed to it. Arrangements were made by Engineer Earl Parker, who was last fall hired by the supervisors to point out the most feasible rourc for the short cut The State high way department should be notified as soon as possible whether ample funds would be guaranteed to com- plete the road, Mir. Atwood said, for in case the money can be raised, the department can save something like S25. .0O0 on the job by purchasing the necessary machine equipment instead of having the bulk of the work done by hand.
 Atwood came here, 1t is said, very much against letting the project go through, but in face of all of the boosting which he encountered after he got here, he soon came to see that % per cent of the voters and taxpay- CTS in the county want the road built, and that in all probability plenty of money will be raised in a short time to insure its completion.

MEXICANS GETTING
 ON THE RIGHT TRAIL

CLIFTON. Ariz., March "A good deal of resentment has recently developed among Mexican residents of the better class in this and the Morenci districts because of renewed efforts on the part of pro-Gcrman Mexicans to advance their ideas on this side of the line. That there has been such work going on here and elsewhere in Arizona since long be- fore the declaration of war, is well known, but for some reason has not been the subject of more than occa- sional comment except among Mexi- cans.
 It Is now indicated that comment will take much broader form and that patriotic Mexican residents oi the Southwest will be enlisted in an aggressive movement against those who lack in loyalty to the country in which they are Many of the Mexi- can residents of this part of the State arc citizens and it is said a good many more arc eligible for citizenship papers, which is also declared to be true throughout the Southwest
 Should the loyal Mexicans ill the country be brought together and plainly announce their purpose of standing by the government, there is no doubt but that they would be able to bring great change in the public attitude toward them and greatly benefit not only their own standing but also that of Mexico.

me Short-inc nighWay DetWeer
 Prescott and Jerome will never b<
 built while l am alive, if I can helr it," said Supervisor Stephens yester. day morning to President F. s. Viels of the Chamber of Commerce, after the latter had gone to the meeting oi the supervisors to consult with these officials regarding the project. This
 Jerome road business is merely a local proposition and will not hell one bit in the improvement of the north and south highway system which has been proposed" eontin- ued MT. Stephens, in voicing his op- position to the measure
 Mir Stephens gave voice to his sentiments on the matter during a conference which was held by the board and State Engineer Atwood, who came here yesterday morning specially to look into the matter Mir. Vielc. who has had charge of the work of circulating the petitions in favor of the road, was present, urging that the beard take action at once toward getting the big project started. Stephens, who is chairman of the board, was asked by MT. Vielc to is. sue an order, with the sanction of the two other members, directing the State engineer to appropriate the sum of S60.0C0 for this project and to bc- gin work at once. IL was then that he told Mir. Viele that the road would never be built by his consent.
 The passage-at-arms between Viclc and Stephens, once the subject was opened up. was spirited, the super. visor opining that it was but local project and that its cost would be a half million dollars.
 The petition" replied Viele. rep resents % per cent of the taxpayer. of Yavapai and 60 per cent of the voters, and if there had been more time, both elements would have been represented to much greater extent on it. Instead of being local mat ter. I consider 1t a county matter. Jerome and Prescott represent 80 per cent of our voting population. and a much greater percentage of our taxable property. What I want to know is, whether this board will grant the people of the county, as represented by the signers of the peti- ton, a hearing on this matter and give 1t earnest and respectful con sidcration. We are not demanding but we do request and ask that the money due Yavapai from the State be expended on the building of this road. If it is not built the result will be deplorable. as far as I can ascertain. One thing I know will re- suit and that is Mir Watson of the Arizona Power Company will move the offices of that concern to Jerome, taking a number of families, the heads of which arc employed by us, with him, and also Sl0,OOO a month which is spent in Prescott. Mir. Stephens, believe, is far ahcld in his figures on the cost of the project, but that makes no difference. Conccding he IS right for the sake of argument, the road nevertheless should be built, be- cause the people demand its construc- ton. If only few miles can be built
