John Kirkup, Secretary of State

Some Time in Mcdford Talking
Good Roads for State.
.John Kirkup, secretary of tho State
Automobile association, who hns boon
lit Mcdford tho past few days talking
good roads, states that nowhoro has
he found greater enthusiasm for good
rendu than In Jackson county. Con
vinced that local people woro already
unanimously In favor of tho move
ment, Mr. Kirkup cut short, his stny
here, an lilg services woro not nocdod.
"Tho legislation will affect the
atato In general to tho grcatost do
gieo, and In which each Individual
should havo an interest, no matter
what district ho may live In, is fhat
whloh appertains to road building and
malntonnnco," statos Mr. Kirkup.
"Tho law should provldo that the
roads bo built In progressive commu
nities who show they want pprmanent
roads by providing a pnrt of tho cost
of tho highway or who will guarantee
that If tho road Is constructed In
their district they will maintain It In
perfect condition continuously and
provldo n fund for that purpose.
"The location of theso roads should
not be left absolutely to flie Judgment
of tho county commissioners, but
thoro should bo somo system dovlsed
by which those who aro willing to pay
good money to get a road Into tholr
district from a trade center should
havo that road In preference to some
remoto district whoso resldonta may
havo a "pull" with tho commissioners,
but who havo not tho disposition nor
energy to help In Its construction or

ed Mexican Outbreak Is Surprise
to Revolt- Sympathizers Many

HUACHUCA, Fob. 2. Because a
largo number of Madero sympathizers
aro anxiously awaiting word from the
robol leader to Join them, tho Mexican
government has partially raised tho
news censorsnip maintained for
months, and today accounts of tho
reported federal victories have boon
received bore. The belief Is general
hero thnt tho Mexican government,
having learned that hundreds of bor
der Mexicans aro propared to Join
Madero, is taking this method to .dis
courage thorn.
Tho Moxlcali outbreak was a, sur
prise to revolt sympathizers here. The
taking of the customs house there is
believed to bo premature, ns the seiz
ing of customs houses' on tho border
was planned for Mnrch, whon Madero
declares ho will proclaim a now re
public. That the government Is coloring

Is suspected, In view of tho fact that
