1 he promised when he resigned several | weeks ago.
 Mr. Ellis charges summarized are as follows:
 That of the 1,S00 miles of concrete highway constructed by State High way Engineer Austin E. Fletcher, "450 miles are constructed on clay and adobe soils without any attention to the sub soil or foundation"
 That "all these roads are breaking up wherever put to the test by traffic" :" and that "a very considerable part of the third bond issue will inevitably be used for the continual rebuilding of these cheap roads,
 That "the expenditure of the first SIS, 900, 900 was marked by the finan- cial ruin of a great proportion of the contractors on the work, who, Ellis says, were broken on Fletchers wheel" because with militaristic con- tempt for a civilization, he saw, with out d symptom of mercy, contractor after contractor bankrupted by his ar bitrary and inconsiderate exactions, until there came a time when the con- tractors quit bidding. or, if they did bid, placed their figures to cover a wide margin of safety
 That Fletcher has Squandered un- told hundreds of thousands of highway funds on day labor jobs" and that up to the present time about 200 state highway jobs have been done by day labor and a very large propor- ton of them have been extrayagantly and scandalously handled
 One of these day labor jobs Ellis cites as follows:
 "On July 3. 1913, bids were received to build the stretch from Shingle to Fl Dorado. 5A miles. The specifica- tions called for water-bound macadam. F1etcherS estimate was S46,211. The lowest bid was about s7,000 above the estimate. All bids were rejected and upon Fietchers recommendation the work was ordered done by day labor. That 51z miles of ordinary oiled macadam read is charged on the commissions books against Fl Dorado county al a cost of S102.020 nearly $20,0 per mile.'
 MT. Ellis also charges that it is iTn- possible to dig out of the biennial report the slightest information as to the disbursement of motor vehicle funds, nor as to maintenance costs on any types of highway construction"
 He appeals to the governor 10 forth with put a veto on any more day labor work" and demands that an immediate investigation and "clean-up' of the ''mill' be made.

car and asked to wire back immediately if any record could be found of that particular car having been stolen.
 Before 10 o'clock that night two wires were received in Phoenix regaru- ing the matter, one to MT. Pottberg, the other to the sheriff of Maricopa coun- ty. The wires read:
 Stakeholder mentioned stolen from Hotel Stillwell; hold car, arrest driver
 When the local Studebaker shop was opened at 7:30 yesterday morning Deputy Sheriff Gilbert Blanco Of the sheriffs office and Inspector Edward G. Crow of the city police were on hand. They stationed themselves in the car in question and waited for the two al legged owners to return and attempt to complete the sale of the car. Several hours passed but they did not put in an appearance.
 Guess they're wise and have beat it." one of the officers remarked, how ever there's an. off chance that they may still be hanging around town, though afraid to claim the car. Let's go look for 'em.''
 MT. Pottberg volunteered his assis- tance and the three started to canvass the town in a Studebaker Big Six. The pair they were looking for were soon located standing at the cornor of Central avenue and Adams street. They were identified by MT. Pottberg and quickly landed in the car by the off cers and taken to the sheriffs office When examined they told conflicting stories. They were held at the county jail pending formal complaint from Los Angeles. The men gave the names Frank Stone and w. D. Chigon.

MEN WHO OFFERED TO SELL GAR CHEAP ARE HELD FOR IF F|CERS

4 long distance telephone call to Los Angeles resulted Saturday in the re- covery of an almost new Studebaker Big Six automobile said to have been stolen from that city, the arrest of two young men alleged to have mad the car in their possession unlawfully, and the prevention of an innocent man from purchasing machine for which a clear title could not be given.
 This series of events occurred through the quick action of Charles J, Pottberg of Barret and Pottberg, dis tributors of Studebaker automobiles in this locality Better be sure than sorry" IS Mir. Pottberg's motto. Now the man who was on the verge of buy ing the car at a snap" price thinks that way too. Here's the story:
 E.There are two men down the street who have a big new Studebaker they have just driven through from Los Angeles. They want to finish tn cir trip by train and will sell it cheap. What do you think it's worth?" This from the near-victim as he rushed into the Studebaker office at 125 North Fifth street. just before closing time Friday afternoon.
 Mr. Pottberg, to whom the man was speaking, named a price several hun dred dollars higher than that asked for the car
 That's too good to be true,' the Studebaker man remarked afte- the other mentioned the price the strangers had put on the car. 'It looks phoney to me, be>ser bring them around ilere and let us look al 1t for you"
 That was done. and while looking at the car MT. Pottberg made a record of the serial number, motor number and the number of the California license plates. The men were then persuaded to leave the car at the Studebaker garage until the following morning when the deal was to have been closed.
 NOW to spend a few dollars for in remarked Mir. Pottberg as he picked up the telephone and put in 2 call for the Los Angeles Studebaker agent, as the supposed owners of the car had departed. Los Angeles was given the identified tion numbers of the

is more than 10000, the per capita flat
 Maricopa county has grown in pop ulation from 53.435 in 1914 to more than 92,000 to date.
 Cotton raised in 1914 made 6200 bales at Is cents a pound. Pima Egyp- tian cotton is now selling around S1.25 ton is now growing in the Salt River valley.
 Thus the records of 1914 and the present could be compared on and on throughout every line of industry and development until the Chicago seers would conclude they were no prophets at all. Word has come from the Chi cago party, which left Chicago Satur- day morning, that they will visit Phoe- nix with anticipations of both pleasure and profit. The chamber of commerce committee on entertainment will begin Monday selling tickets for a luncheon at the Woman's club, and it has been urged that the business men of Phoe- nix attend as a representative body to meet the Chicago men, who are all heads of industries. There will be several addresses by men we'll quail fled to speak on special subjects con corning Phoenix. the county and state. The Snecial train will reach Phoenix early Wednesday morning. After breakfast on-their train the excursion ists will be taken for a trip to Granite Reef and other points of interest. In they will visit Phoenix business men in their places of business. Their train will leave for the coast at 6 o'clock that afternoon.

WEEK IF TRACKING
 LEADS ID ARREST OF MEXICAN FUG|TVE

Worn out and asleep near water hole with his horse grazing nearby Pedro Wyarra, the Mexican ranch hand who shot Jose RazeZo in the mouth last Sunday, April 26. on the Cook and Laid ranch near Glendale. because Rozezo would not pay him ten dollars he owed him, was captured Saturday afternoon near Welton, after a weeks pursuit by Deputy Sheriff Jim Troutman and Sterling Price, brother of Deputy Sher- if R. NJ. Price.
 Deputy Sheriff Troutman had hired a Yaqui Indian to trail down the fugl- tive, and when Wyarra was found asleep it was the Yaqui Indian who crept up to the sleeping man steaithlly and removed his revolver. When the fugitive opened his eyes, although he made grab for his gun, he was look ing into the muzzles of two revolvers' one of which was his own, in the hands of the Indian.
 Troutman struck the trail of the fugitive at Estrella and followed F through Gila Bend toward Welton Both man and horse were found to be footsore and tired, the Mexican having left the road during the hot period ot the day, which gave his pursuers n their automobile time to catch up to him, his trail being easy to pick up ny the Indian trailer. Although holding out for almost a week. sleep got the best of Wyarra and led to his capture
 Razezo, the man he shot is not'coh- sidered seriously hurt The bullet en- tered the mouth, knocking out some ot the lower teeth, then deflected and buried itself somewhere in the neck or throat. Wyarra and his captors arrived here yesterday afternoon after an all night ride. The pisoner was locked uE in the county jail pending prelimI- nary hearing on the charge of attempt cd murder
