MINING IS LUCK SAYS
 EDITOR OF MINE PAPER

VANCOUVER, B. C., Mar. 1S- Is mining an investment, a specula- ton or a gamble" was the subject on an address made here today before the International Northwest Mining Congress by T. A. Rickard of San Francisco, editor of the Mining and Scientific Record. Even the best of mining propositions contain a cer- tain element of risk according to Mr. Rickard, but" he added, Tuck is the very essence of mining; it is its life, and the true miner faces the risk with cheerful confidence. Certain promoters he described as men wlo tried to sell nothing for something to man who expects something for nothing He said in part:

z
 From Vendor yesterday news was received of the death from influenza on Sunday morning of Lee Hodges, a pioneer of this county who made Peoples valley his home for many years until a short time ago.
 Hodges Is the last of seven chil- dren of this family to pass away and from the same affliction. His father was a victim of this dread disease many years ago, and tine only member of the family said to survive is an aged mother, now residing at Yuma.
 Several years ago during an cpl demic of influenza in this section the Hudges home was sadly stricken when two daughters were summoned in one day. and they were laid away in a single coffin. The day follow ing another daughter passed away. and a few days later the father sue cumbed. only to be followed in short time afterward by two other children. The home was darkened by the reaper. and the mother left the old place burdened with that griet which is inconsolable. The last oi the family to be called was mining near Wenden, and he will be remem- bered by many of this section as a worthy and upright man.

JOHNS HEAD FRONTIER
 DAY COMMITTEE
(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

After some persuasion, Senator A. A. Johns has accepted the chairman ship of the executive committee of the 1919 Frontier Day Celebration. Together with Arena Director Lester Ruffner, he will share the hard work and honors accruing from the big cowboy carnival, the first in two years of stress and strain of war.
 The first meeting of the executive committee has been held. The ball has started rolling. There is nothing now but hard work ahead of the folks who are connected with the celebra- ton, until the thing has been put through to a successful conclusion.
 Already they are planning on new and spectacular stunts. The next celebration will be in the nature of victory jubilee, for throughout the program will run events to remind the people of the glorious achieve ments of the past year, when so many of the Yavapai and Arizona cow punchers were punching Huns in stead of bovines.
 Discussion of tine Frontier Day events will be part of the program at tonight's meeting of the Chamber of Commerce. The dates have beet. set for July 2-3-4-5.

GETTING LIVELY ON
 SHORT CUT TO JEROME
(From Wednesdat's DaiIY.l

Construction of the Prescott Jer- ome highway is now assuming i'm portance, since favorable weather conditions permit of work in the open and the force now employed has reached to over sixty. E. "A. Wolfe, of flagstaff, has been appointed State Division Engineer to succeedFF. K. Goodman, and while in the city yes terday stated the main grading caHlp is established at the Forest Ranger station in Yeager canyon, work pro- gressing in a rocky formation to- ward Jerome.
 It is the purpose to rush construc- ton during the months ahead and to avoid if possible indictment weather this fall in that particular zone. As an inducement to secure the highest class labor possible the state is offer ing liberal wage scale of $4.00 per day, and this action IS bringing forth expressions of satisfaction from the labor element. The official action of the state administration in this new road movement is receiving whole some endorsement from the Jerome country, and the enrolling of so many miners affected by the copper shut down is considered as just and de- serving. For the first time known in Arizona tne above wage scale is the highest ever paid for labor of this character, and the wisdom of the official action taken IS reflected in construction making good headway.
 Mr. Wolfe was in the city yester- day from the camp and returns to- day He comes to this field with an excellent name as an engineer and a road builder of experience.
