IN ROAD FUND POLITICAL SCHEME
Sends Strong Veto Measure to the Legislature
Pointing Out Vital Defects in Bill Passed by
Democratic Ma iority. Future of Good Road
Construction in the Balance. Public Approves
Governors Action

PHOENIX, March 6.-Following a
weeks more or less stormy session of
the legislature, during which time the
democratic majority of the house and
senate passed and sent to the COVER
nor a bill creating a state highway
board which in turn was to select
state highway commission, road leg
islation was landed right where it
by Governor Campbell to the legisla-
ture outlining his reasons for disap-
proving the measure which had been
passed and transmitted to him. The
bill as sent the governor provided that
the secretary of state, state treasurer,
PRESIDENT of the senate, and speaker
of the house, four democrats, with the
governor, republican, should be the
board to name the three highway COM
missioners. 1t was clearly a scheme
of the democratic politicians to play
politics with the road building fund.
1t should, however, be stated that
many of the democratic members were
forced to support the bill by party
caucus rule, a strict party vote, almost
without exception, having been cast
in passing the measure, the democrats
favcring and the republican members
opposing.
AS three-fourths of the votes of the
legislature are necessary to pass the
bill, the veto of the governor notwith-
standing, it is probable the bill will
never become law, and just what
highway legislation will be enacted
would at this date be for guessers@ to
decide. 1t is possible an extra ses1
sion of the legislature may be neces-
sary to frame a bill agreeable to both
the democratic majority and the gov
ernor.
In his message today, Governor
Campbell, after outlining the views
he had previously submitted to the
Legislature in his first legislative mes
sage, relative to the administration
of the state highway department,
which views recommended that the
state highway department should be
under the control of five persons, said.
81 had in mind the advantages to be
gained from the counsel and expert
ence of citizens familiar with road
construction and the expenditure of
large sums of money, at the same time

ests of the commonwealth at heart,

DR|VEAHLE ROADS
TO PROSPECTS ARE
PRIME NECESSITY

One of the prime requisites in the
development of the mineral resources
OF any country at the present time is
the keeping in repair of the roads
leading to the smaller developing
mines. In days gone by the old pros
pector was satisfied to pick his way
painfully up the gulch, his sure-footed
hurro negotiating successfully, though
slowly, the tortuous paths which led
into the untracked wilderness, where
there lay dormant the hidden mines
Cf the future. Backed by few sam
pies, Clipped from the walls of his
tiny tunnel, the ancient pioneer of
mining could often induce prospect
i've investors to take the long, hard
trip with him into the hills and pos
sibly, interest them in his property.
Modern business methods, however,
have entirely changed this situation,
and today the first question asked by
the man who has money to invest IN
{. mining property is as to it's accessi
bility. "Can we drive to it in an au-
tomobile?" is the first question asked
concerning any likely prospect, and
if the answer is negative, the chances
are a hundred to one that the visitor
will never take the time to make the
tedious journey over a rough trail to
look at the property. But if the prop
erty can be reached by automobile,
capital can be interested easily, the
merits of the prospect easily demon
strated, and the chances for develop
ment of new mine, assuming the
property to be one of merit, are vast
ly increased.
The county supervisors have devot-
ed a great deal of attention to keep
ing the main trunk line roads of the
county in repair, and rightly so, for
they are the arteries of travel. But
the branch roads leading to the de-
veloping mines are the tendrils of en-
terprise they lead into the hills where
lie the undeveloped riches of tomor-
row, and through them the future
comes to pour it's wealth into Pinafs
treasure valut. While, of >eourseF it
would be manifestly impossible to
build boulevards to all the prospects
in the county, yet there should be a
fund set aside by the supervisors TO
keep in repair the roads leading to
the smaller developing properties.
Driveable roads leading to the most
important of our developing mines
would result in inestimable benefit to
the people of Pinal county through
the inevitable influx of capital, the
providing of employment and the open
ing up of new and great additions to
our wonderful mineral resources.

SACCHAR|NE SPORT

A small party of hunters, compris-
ing James Turner, Jack Travis, Tony
Magyar and others, undertook to cap
ture some wild hogs which are re-
ported to be numerous in this vicin-
ity, last Sunday afternoon.
Without a doubt, the expert shots
who were the party, would have re-
turned with some hogs, if there had
been any in the vicinity. AS it was,
reconnaissance disclosed some wild
bees, and in the effort to secure some
or the honey, it is said that the pur-
suit of the hogs was abandoned.
The hazard of the honey hunt con-
sisted of climbing a rock with an
overhang that spelled instant death TO
the member who might be unfortunate
enough to fall. A narrow escape from
death was the outcome of one hunt
er's venturesomeness
Although it is not certain, we are
given to understand that the honey
hunters were not stung.

LEASERS At TROY
UNCOVER LARGE
BODY OF ORE

Leasers at the Troy-Arizona have
recently opened a body Of ore on the
Rather vein that is considered one
of the most important recent develop
ments on this promising property. A
large body of copper ore, ten feet
thick, has been encountered in the
winze being driven on this end of the
Troy property, and with the advance
ment Of operations it's extent is daily
being more and more brought into
view.
A large tonnage is on the dump at
Troy, and while the management does
not anticipate the commencement of
shipping until there has been some
advance in the price of the red metal
Advices received this week are to the
effect that the government holdings of
copper are to be disposed of at Is
cents, but as soon as a readjuStment
is effected in the copper market, it is
anticipated that Troy will enter the
shipping class. Troy Arizona has al
ready met the expectations of the
most optimistic as regards indica
tions that a large mine will be devel
oped, and with an energetic carrying
out of the development program now
mapped out, should be in an especial
ly strong position among the coming
mines of this district. Ore already
encountered in the Rather runs bet
ter than 10 per cent copper, content
that should increase with depth, while
the possibilities of large low-grade
tonnage, which could be concentrated
and handled profitably are conceded
most encouraging.

BLOODY SCENES MARK
CONFLICT OF BEASTS

In a desperately fought encounter
between ferocious badger which had
been brought in from the foothills OF
the Pinals, and H. R. Wiggin's cham
pion badger destroying "Toughie,
the dog escaped annihilation by a
hairs breadth.
The battle which took place in the
lot between the postoffice and Miller
Bros bakery, was one of the most
sanguinary melees witnessed in Ray
for long time.
The badger was an unusually fero-
cious one, expert handlers being of
the opinion that his Information had
not been completed. In addition, he
had been trained for a week, and kept
without food.
H. R. Virgins, who claims that
Toughie has 10 badger scalps to his
credit, apparently took it for granted
that the fight would be an easy one
for his dog. Max Wirtschafter, the
expert San Francisco dog trainer, had
to exert himself to the utmost to save
Toughie from utter destruction.
A Hercules man, who prefers to
remain incgonito, volunteered to pull
the badger. At the word of command
from the judges, he pulled with all
his might, and, with a hoarse growl
the enraged beast flung itself upon
the ready dog.
The conflict did not last long, and
ringside decision was unanimous in
favor of the badger. 1t is planned to
hold more of these interesting bouts
in the near future, when the weather
will have become more suitable.
