SIGNS OF GOOD TIMES

For the last month. every paper has printed rumors and rumors of rumorS that the copper mines in the State were going to start production. We now have a definite announcement from the president of the United Verde Extension that work will be resumed in Feb ruary. The United Verde is putting the steam shovels into commission, and there is no reason for so doing un- less they are going to work. Miami and Globe papers au- nounce an early resumption of work in the mines. New York dispatches tell of Q great reduction in the c0pp- CT surplus. Prospect for 8 moratorium on the German indemnity for 3 five year period seems to be consum- mated, and Germany is one of the best copper customers of Arizona. Freight rates will undoubtedly be reduced on copper mine products. The immediate future holds promise of the development of a hydro electric proposi- tion second to none in the world in the Boulder Canyon district. Intensive develop, ment, of the Holbrook oil field will, we venture to state, be only a matter of days.
 Prosperity is shaking
 hands with us.
 Give the old man 9 firm
 grip.

SPECIAL REPORT BY THE COMMITTEE AS "A
 WHOLE

HolbrOok, Arlz. DecA 31, 1921 Hon. c. H. Ballard,
 Foreman of the Grand Jury, Holbrook, Arizona.
 Sir:
 We, the Grand Jury in ses- sion as a committee as a whole feel to make the fol- lowing recommendations with regard to the made quacy of office room and the lack of proper fire protect tion of the County Court House at HoIbrook, Arizona. It might be well to state that these recommendations are being made after due consideration and delibera- tion by the Grand Jury, and after having heard 3 detail ed explanation by the Clerk of the Superior Court. as well as having personally in- vestigated the matter:
 The Clerk of the Superior Court has many records in his office which areyery val uable, and in our present system of keeping them there is no way of protect ing them in case of fire, and should fire destroy the build ing these records would pro bably be lost; .mos5 of them being impossible to dgpll- cate.
 This condition also applies as to the records'in the.othar offices, although there are three vaults on the lower floor, but these are practi- cally filled to capacity.
 The rapid growth of the County's business and ths multiplying of these import ant records demands serious consideration and attention.
 We, the Grand Jury, re commend that'a a Bond Issue be submitted to the people at the next genera! county election, or that some othel : means be taken to take care of this situation. Signed by the othel twenty Grand Jurors
