The statement concerning the Indian

SINCE reading The long article OF
tho Globe Chronicle on the bill to az
sist The Arizona Narrow-Guaee
Railroad Company to construct a
road through Pima, Pinal, ella and
Ap$che counties, We have had the
pleasure of examining the bill itself
and are inclined to think that the
ChrOaieze is crying wolf" when, in
rsalitk, there is no danger; or, per-
haps, for quite a different purpose
than that appearing upon the sur
face. We are not sure that the
Chronicle article has not been in
sPired by an interest in another line
of railway. Globe people are lucky
II they have the opportunity TO
choose between two roads. Choose
fIem both and help them both. The

iped out by the taxes which those

those roads, especially the Tue
