 WILL HOLD MEETING AT LORDSBURG

A second meeting of the Southwest ern Highway Association, which effect ed temporary organization at Silver City, N. M. on March 27th, will be call ed shortly by W. B. Kelly, President, to meet at Lordsburg, N. M, on or about May 1.
 At the first meeting held at Silver City the membership was composed of delegates from Grant and Hidalgo counties, in New Mexico, and Greenlee county in Arizona, put in accordance with a resolution adopted at the first meeting citizens of Arizona and New Mexico counties are eligible to mem bership in the Association, and it is hoped that at the meeting to be held in Lordsburg representatives from other counties from the two states will be present to lend their efforts in the furtherance of the objects of the As, sociation-more roads and better roads, east and west, through Arizona and New Mexico and especially roads in southwestern New Mexico and south eastern Arizona.
 At the meeting held in Silver City there was {, dscUssio of proposed routes connecting the southern parts of New Mexico and Arizona, but in accordance with the recommendation of the Committee on Order of Busi ness, no decisive action was taken at the first meeting. At successive meet ing of the Association, however, this question will no doubt become oi paramount importance and recommen dations by the Association to the cohp ty authorities in the southern tier ci counties in both states, bearing upon the location of national highway, will be in order.
 The Greenlee county delegation to the Silver City convention learned with a great deal of pleasure from une delegates from Hidalgo county CLords- burg) that it is the intention of the county authorities of that county, at the first opportunity, to put in first

There could be no greater test for the Salvation Army than the test they received in the war so I am just adding my voice to the mighty chorus when I say that the Salvation Army has long since won the right to make an appeal to the rest of us for their maintenance and I am sure that the appeal to the cit izens of Arizona will not be made in vain-''

met a representative of the Reclama- tion Bureau now in this state. After outlining roughly the reclamation pro- iect in this section 70 him it was agre. ed upon that he would pay visit to the proposed dam site and if the pro- position upon inspection appeared feas- ible and meritorious rtquest would be made to the State Land Department for cooperative survey in conjunc- tion with. the Bureau of Reclamation. Previously, in Phoenix, the officers of the Greenlee County Water Users Association had been assured by the State Land Commissioner that the state would gladly cooperate with the Bureau in such a survey and es- innate.
 While in this section the represen- tative of the Bureau will also pay a visit to Alma, N. M. north of Clifton, where he will pass on the storage dam site near there, which is intended to serve a double purpose-the storage of flood waters on the upper Frisco and the protection of Clifton from dan gerous and destructive floods.

The O. W. L. Bridge Club was honor ed by a dancing party given by a num- Der of the young men of Clifton, the dance taking place last Saturday night at the High School Auditorium.
 The hall was decorated in blue and white ribbons of crepe tissue carried from a canopy formed from the Anne rican flag and anchored to the railing of the balcony The effect was beau tiful and added a touch of stateliness to the general effect.

After the dancing was concluded a super was served on tables placed about the dancing floor, every man pre- sent helping to arrange the tables and served the supper which consisted of fruit salad, sandwiches and coffee.

This can be done at comparatively small expense, and upon completion of the Clifton-Springerville north and south highway, good highway from Clifton to Lordsburg vii be an inn portant link connecting northern Ari- zona and New Mexico with the south ern portions of 10th states and Fl Paso.
 n Grant county. New Mexico, there $ strong sentiment prevailing in the Eorthwestern portion of the coun- ty, in the Jackson and Mule Creek sec tion, in favor of highway connection between Clifton and Silver City via that route. Through the efforts of MT. Robinson, agent of the Department of Agriculture for Grant county, as sisted by other Grant county officials, Federal appropriation in the sum of $$40,O has been secured for the improvement of the road from Silver City via Cliff and Jackson to Mogollon. In this connection it has been pointed out that at a comparatively small ex- pense a westerly connection through Mule Creek section to the Arizona line could be made .at a very small outlay, provided Greenlee county would build to the New Mexico line at that point.
 The position of the Grenlee county delegates at the Silver City meeting was that our people are willing to join with Grant or Hidalgo counties at any points decided upon which would insure a shorter overland route thrugh this section, and in response to the representations made to the Board of Supervisors of this county by the residents of Grant county in the Mule Creek section, the Board has assures these people that if Grant coun ty sees fit to build to the Greenlee county line in that section, Greenlee county would be found wiling to CO operate.

MRS. cAsHIoN gNTERTAINs

Mrs. Cashion used pink carnations as the chief form of decoration at a springtime party given at her home Thursday afternoon. There were dozens of these wonderful flowers in every nook and corner and the frag- rance which greeted one was like the spices from the fields of Araby. Six tables of bridge were accommodated in the living room and dining room and much competition prevailed as it was whispered about from some one who claimed to know that the prizes were much to be desired. At the final SCOT ing it was found that the first prize was won by Mrs. Frank Laine, a candy jar of cut glass. The second by Mrs. Terrell, a perfume bottle of the same cut as the first. Then a chance to cut an ace was given to every one and Mrs. w. B. Kelly was the fortunate one, winning cut glass marmalade jar. The refreshments were pink and white where it was possible to carry this color out and were most delight ful. Those present were:
 Mesdames Abraham, Cooper, LiddelI. Laine, Falor, Bernstein, Kelly, Simms, Burtch, Minson, Frankel, Nelson, FL liott, Shirk, Reardon, Farrell, Terrell, Weller, Horton, Crawford, Clements, Knowles, Terry and Miss Farrell.

GRAHAM CO. JUDGE FOR SUPRE ME
 | | U RI
Hon. A. G. McAIIister, Superior Judge of Graham County Will be Can didate in Democratic Pri-
 marieS

Hon. A. G. McAllister, Judge of the Superior Court of Graham County, was in Clifton last week on business con- nected with Judge Laine's court and while here it was definitely learned that he would become a candidate for Judge of the Supreme Court, entering the race for the Democratic nom1na- tion Judge McAllister states that he is not running at the urgent request of his many frienos, but because he earnestly desires the position, feeling that his professional training and ex- perience ane such as to justify him in seeking this promotion.
 Judge McAllister has been on the trial bench for eight years, having been first elected Superior Judge in December, 1911, at the incoming of statehood, after hard fought.contest. Hn 1914, however, at the close of his first term, and again in 1918 at the close of his second, he was reelected without opposition from either party. He had previously spent two years as Deputy District Attorney of Graham County and had been elected in 1908, at the head of his rlcKet, ass District Attorney Of that county, which then
 
 until statehood.
 During his eight years as trial judge he has, at various times, presided over the Superior Courts of eleven of the fourteen counties of the state; in fact he has tried nearly as many contested cases in other counties as in his own, which appears from the record show ing that, of the appeals taken from his decisions to the Supreme Court, mum bering more than fifty, nearly one-halt have gone up from counties other than Graham. On number of occasions he has served as member of the Su preme Court when one of the Supreme Judges was disqualified, and in each case prepared the opinion of that Court.
 Judge McAllister was born i1 Soutf Carolina in 1872. and received his com mon and high school education there In 1894 he was graduated from the Uni versity of. Nashville, Tennessee, and after teaching several years in the south, came to Arizona, reaching Phoe nix in January, 1S56. While still fol lowing the profession of teaching il his adopted state, ne took up in 1S9! the study of law, was admitted to the bar in 1902 and from then until Ee en tered upon his duties as Superior Judge in February, 1912, was engaged in the active practice of the law.

ter and more efficient results can be achieved by comprehensive and joint extraction and benefica- ton of the large bodies of low grade ore which lies partly in the territory of each of the Companies.
 Unler the physical conditions existing, and the present mode of separate operations in the district, it is conceded that these ores can not be mined separately to their fullest and most economical extent and it is into this phase of com bined operation that the joint en. gineers now on the ground will in vestigaUe.
 This thorough investigation by Phelps Dodge and Arizona Copper Go. engineers will probably extend over a period of several months.
 1t is no longer secret that the directors of the Arizona Copper Go. Ltd., came to this country for a conference and discussion of mu- tuaI interest with Phelps Dodge officials affecting industrial oper- ations in this district. That no definite arrangements were made at this first meeting is now mani fest and the work to be carried on by the engineers for the respec- tive companies during the next few months will furnish additional data for the consideration of the interested parties at some future date
