preference for making tlic selection.
Eifprplt from Mr. Westgnrd's letter
ire as follows:
"I believe that within n year or
iko a route will be developed west
of Onilnp, X. W, and as discussed
by in during your recent trip to
New Vork. I should, in fnct, be
fhi to take the opportunity some

utterly through the Moqui Indian
rccrvntion, taking in tho .Painted
Decrt, the Grand Canyon, Coconino
forest, If itosslblo tho Cliff Dwellers,
thence utilizing tho territorial high
way from Flagstaff to Prcscott and
Phoenix. It in now possible that I
mil sometime in tho near future be

In liiirmnny with Mr. Wcstgard it
i ,iiiarrnt thnt his association dc
tires to tour tho more interesting
historical and scenic points in north
ern Arizonn, and which enn only be
reached by tho route ho endrtrscs ns
above In addition to thoso points
he ioelficnlly mentions there nre
many others along the lino of tho

thcro is nothing in the southwest

that can be equalled. Men of wide
travel throughout the world have

attended with discomfort nnd a com
edy of tribulations that make that
route Impracticable. Mr. Wcstgard
scouted the country over a year ago,
and his poor success is known to nil.
On the east and west route through
the northern tier of Arizonn coun
