ABOUT These RAILROADS.

The Miner, in commenting on
the rumored adoption of the line
of 3330 3ON through Arizona, says:
| Whatever arrangement the two compa-
MES may make in regard 10 the consolida-
tiou of the S. & Z. and the Texas Pacific
| railroads. one thing is certain the dtfec-
: ton of the roads will never be made SO as
| to have the read cross Arizona AZ $50 30".
The two surveys made on the 32d and 3Jth
parallels have covered the entire ground
ct practicable routes across Arizona. II
the TWO roads are to be united in Mexico
at any point, the road thence must cross
Arizona uear one of the surveys already
made. We are talking by the book when
we say that no railroad company will ever
think Of even making a survey en- $50 ;5O".
The country between the ella river and
San Francisco mountains is ''rOugh;sh''-
only succession of mountains and canyons
The Sierras Blancas and Mogollcn ranges,
the canyons and valleys of the San CarlUs
Salt and Verde rivers, interpused insuper-
able obstacles to railroad or even de-
cent wagon road on that line. The tale Of
editors about going through the mountains
on either line across Arizona is the poor
est kind of bosh. There are no mountains
between the Rio Grande and the Colorado.
Oh the ;}2d and 35tb parallels to go through;
there is u" grade Oh either route that ex-
ceeds The ulaximur, allowed by Congress
in the charter of lie roads, viz, l6 feet to

There is another thing to be
considered in this connection ::
hat no change whatever can DO
made that will stand, unless rati-.
led by Congress; therefore, the
mere speculations that we hear
hould go for naught. For our
art, we shall continue to believe
hat the sod parallel is the route
Intended to be built over, until Of
