CHISANA TRAIL

The mail carriers on the Mccarthy Chisana route are experiencing un- usual difficulties in crossing the Nizina and Russell glaciers this winter, no appropriation having been made for stalking a trail across.
 This was also the case last winter and resulted in two men being bad Iy frozen on the Nizina glacier, which, though only four miles across is full of crevasses, invariably a strong wind is blowing down from the Rohn blacier which makes this short crossing particularly danger ous.
 At an expenditure of about $3,000 a double ender" trail could be built around this glacier on the east side, pack horses having already been brought around this way which shows that the land route is not i'm possible.
 This matter we understand, was brought to the attention of Edward F. Medley, a representative of the Cordova Chamber of Commerce, at an informal meeting held in the Laurie building last Monday evening at which were present some of the most prominent citizens of the town and some Chisana operators, the lat ter giving some interesting data re- garding the prohibitive cost of freighting supplies to the interior camp under present conditions, to say nothing of the dangers of cross ing the glacier without stakes.
 MT. Medley will present all these facts to the Cordova Chamber of Commerce on his return to Cordova, feeling sure that we will get some relief as all members of that live organization take more than per sonal interest in Mccarthy and real ize that to open up any country, trails must be built and mems lives protected from such conditions as ex- ist between here and Chisana.
 Last year Billy James, one of the largest operators in Chisana freight ed in his outfit by way of Gulkana. a distance of two hundred and sixty miles, over which he broke trail, in order to avoid travelling the danger ous glacier, in spit of the fact that the glacier is one hundred miles shorter.
 He iss intending to do the same this spring, leaving the railroad at Chitina.
 It is very certain that if some thing is not done on the American side of the boundary line in the matter of trails the travel will be diverted to the Canadian side, as a road will surely be built to Chisana from that end, and in that case all the busi- ness and outfitting will be done from Dawson-this is a much larger question than many imagine.
 The same mail contract is still in force now as 1t was three years ago and there is no reason why the usual appropriation for stalking the glacier trails should not be on the estimates not only save a mans life but would double the traffic between Chisana and Cordova via Mccarthy Carthy News.

seems to have been the period OF
real liquidation. The movement then
started was accelerated by the
stringent financial conditions OF the
year just passed. This Is apparent
from the slaughter figures for the
two years and from the comparative
holdings OF live stock on farms and
ranges on January l. 1920 and 1921.
BASED on the foregoing consid-
erations. careful students OF condi-
tions feel that production has reach
ed the lowest point consistent with
a steady domestic supply of meat at
prices acceptable to consumers and
that further declines in the domestic
supply or important advsnces In
meat prices will invite foreign COM

themselves unto a Board of Directors, but in the absence of any statutory authority, a comparison more apropos would have been to have likened the TaXpayers' Association to the stock holders of a corporation, and to have taken the attitude that the Board of Supervisors composed the Board of Directors, governed by the corpora tion bylaws (Arizona Statutes)
 Acting in the capacity of a Board of Directors it occurred to us at times during the discussions that arose, that the Committee was not fully informed as to the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, or the bylaws either of the corporation which they essayed to represent.
 Taking for example the position of the Taxpayers Committee on the amount necessary to be inserted in the budget for the completion of The Clifton on-Springerville Road. Ihe. amount estimated in the Budget for the completion of this project was s66, ,OOO.OO The committee insisted upon a reduction of this figure in the sum of $24,OOO.OO, but were not i'll nosition to demonstrate that thelr figure was any more accurate than the figures proposed in the budget by the Board of Supervisors. We oplne that the Committee had never gone over this project with the County En- gineer or his assistants; we opine that the Committee had never taken up this question with the contractors or their engineers, and we venture the further assertion that the committee had never discussed the cost of the completion with other road con tractors in the county. Before the committee would have been in posi- tion to demand a reduction of SPA, ,OOO.- % in this road item, it follows that they should have been in possession of such data and figures, supported by the testimony of competent authority, that the sum of $42,000, was beyond the peradventure of a doubt a suffi- cient sum for the purpose, because the Board of Supervisors are under contract to complete this project on a certain date, in order to receive the benefits of federal aid for further construction.
 It developed that the actual amount in dollars and cents necessary for the purpose of completion of the Clifton Springerville Road project is, at best, guess work just at this time. The county engineer said the amount was problematical, but the committee failed, apparently, to appreciate the responsibility placed upon the should
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1921-08-12

CTS of the Board of Supervisors. The members of the Board are under bond; the members of the board are a party to the contract; it is incum- bent on the Board alone to complete the project. By making a bad guess the Board imperilled the success of the undertaking, and We believe they were justified in every way in their final decision. If the Taxpayers Com mittee is pleased to assume the role of Directors, they must work at the job
 We prefer to look at the Taxpayers CT member in good standing, as an advisory council to the Board of Sup ervisors, helping the Board over the rough places and advising with them often in their efforts to keep the run ing eXenses down as low as possible. The Taxpayers Association should be encouraged in the objects of the As sociation. The taxpayers should show their interest in the real objects Of the Association by becoming mem bers, but sad to say, a large number of taxpayers evidently prefer to sit around and howl, instead of aSsCCiat- ing themselves with an organization, which in the end will attain good re suits.
 
 of the times, from a taxpayers stand point is a stronger constituted autho- rity over the actual management of county affairs. The more economical management of county affairs is ham pered by biennial legislation, often enacted at the behest of the direct beneficiaries, instead of in the inter- ests of the taxpayers who foot the bills The Board of Supervisors are often confronted with law that prevents them from working greater economy. The Chairman of the Board of Supervisors should be vested with the authority of General Manager, and he should be on the job every day, receiving a salary commensurate with the importance of his office. What county affairs need most is a boss on the job.
 In the meantime the Taxpayers should turn their attention to the next session of the legislature. It is there that a real and lasting and binding relief can be obtained, at least so far as GreenIee county is concerned. The word SHALL which occurs in many places should be substituted with the word MAY and greater discretionary power vested in-the Chairman and members of the Board ol Supervisors.
