Hon. N. o. Murphy Secretary OF the
Territory, has returned to Phoenix
from Washington. He stated to
SENTINEL correspondent that the sub
sidy bill for the construction Of the
railroad from Phoenix to Prescott will
certainly pass Congress and be signed
by the President. This is splendid
news for both those cities and the
territory at large. Mr.. Murphy did
good work while in IL Capital, which
should be appreciated.

TIE San Diego San thinks there is
a reasonable prospect that a railroau
will soon be built from the Colorado

has just completed a survey of the
Colorado Canyon route to Yuma upon
which he has been engaged for year
past. He has been III consultation
with the San Diego Chamber OF Com

obstacle In the way Of the proposed
road is in lack of funds Capitalists
Will not willingly take hold of roau
which does not hold out reasonable
prospect of local business. On this
point, however, Colonel Stanton thinks
he can demonstrate the practicability
of the route. From Grand junction,
lac says, to point where the Grand

agricultural country. In what is
Known as the Gunuison region he says
there is more anthracite coal than in
the whole state OF Pennsylvania. ia
Utah the route passes through lea
mense maple forests. After reaching
Grand Canyon fine placer gold mines
are found. The survey was continued
TO the Gulf OF California, at which
point the Colonel took the Southern
Pacific to San Diego. When asked
If the road would come 10 San Diego
he said:
The original intention was to reach

The placers above Yuma. on the
Colorado and ella rivers, are attrac-
ing the attention of Eastern capital
lists, and several big plants are being
put in. The scarcity Of water is all
that prevents that section from
developing into a grand placer mining
region.-Pomona Courier.
There is an abundance of water
available to work the rich gold fields of
Yuma and what is more, there is
sufficient capital interested to
thoroughly develop the ground and
put the placer camps. of this county,

Yuma To San 4uintin.

Will Capt. Scott, who has for the
past two years been the General Man
ager for t he international Company,
was at the Cor cnado hotel yesterday
he remarked to Governor Murray, and
several other gentleman with whom
he was conversing, that within nine
months the company would begin the
construction of railroad from Yuma
to San Quintin'
A gentleman who saw Captain
Scott and Colonel Stanton in consul
tation yesterday state this morning
that there was proposition pending
between the International Company
and the Colorado Canyon Company,
that the two unite in the building OF
the line from Yuma, What the Can
yon route people want is to reach the
bay of San Diego, and what the Inter
national Company wants is to open up
Baja California to settlement, and
hence the two can work together har-
moniously in the building of the road
west Of Yuma.
G. j. Fox stated that if the Interna
tional Company build their road from
Yuma to San Cuintin, the most prac-
ticable route will be almost due west
from Yuma to point about forty
miles from San Diego, when they
will then turn south toward Sar
Quintin. Sun, San Diego Cal.

Railroad TO Yuma.

c. P. Huntington Of the South
ern Pacific company, during
recent brief stay in San Diego,
stated to the Chamber of Commerce
of that city that she was impressed
with the advantages that would re-
suit from the construction Of line
to San Diego, and that he was Of
opinion that the best way to reach
the city was by line from Yuma
through Lower California. He
also promised to at once order
survey of the line to be made. The
advantages resulting to Arizona
from the building Of such road
cannot be overestimated. The
time between Yuma and San Diego
would not exceed eight hours,
making a saving of one day in
transit from the Western border
of Arizona to ocean communica-
ton. The basis for our supplies
would be San Diego, which city
could furnish us certainly as cheap
ly as San Francisco, and the ag-
gregate saving in cost Of freight
would be immense thus directly
benefting the consumer. With
such a road there would undoubt-
eddy be put on line Of steamers to
China, Japan and Australia, for
those places are much nearer San
Diego than San Fran cisco. There
would be a shortening Of travelled
distance, by ocean and land, from
China and Japan Of three days
and Australia four days to New
York. San Diego would become a
great city, and would naturally
reach out for and secure all the
trade of Arizona. She would es-
tablish reduction works for the
treatme Mt of ores, and in the saw
ing Of expense Of transportation
and the decreased cost of reduction
by reason of competition our min
ing interests would receive a new
impetus in the ability to probably
work vast number of mines now
idle. The road would further de-
velope the resources Of Arizona, in
bringing about rapid develop
ment of our immense agricultural
wealth now lying in a measure,
dormant. Between the boundary
line Of Mexico and Yuma there are
100000 acres Of as fine land as
pillow ever turned. With this new
road constructed it would be but a
brief time until capital would re-
deem this land. There is to be
taken into consideration another
existing very significant fact.
Some time since the Southern
Pacific company purchased the
land bordering both sides of the
ella liver at what is known as the
Tacna crossing, which is about 40
miles East of Yuma. This crossing
is by far the most available one on
the river anywhere in Yuma county
and taps the western end of the
great valley watered by the Mo-
hawk Canal. 1t has been for a long,
time rumored that the Southern
Pacific intend to change their
route, at this point, so as to tap the
whole ella valley. 1t is in their
interest SO to do. The road would
traverse the ella valley from
Antelope Peak to the Aqua Caliente
Springs. F'raa thcro il would run
to PhocniS, til.7ce 10 Florence, and
thence to Tucson draining and |

Unsettled conditions in the financial
circles of the North, manipulated by
the bulls and bears, will not seriously
affect the South. All our conditions are
solid, based upon natural resources, that
are enduring and cannot be discounted.
The tendency of surplus capital is south
ward, and the more shaky affairs be-
come in the East and West, the greater
will be the disposition to come South,
where developing wealth and assured
profits are always in sight. We have no
apprehension of panic, for our re-
sources are enlarging each day as CAPT
tai and labor are applied to them, and
there is no possibility of contraction
or collapse. for there is nothing fictitious
about them.

No Danger to the South.

The uneasy feeling in financial circles
IN New York and Boston, principally,
and i'll other eastern centres incidentally,
will, as appearances indicate, pass off
without any unusual disturbance in bust
ness. However it may affect the North
and West, it will not implicate Southern
interests to any great degree unfavora-
bly,. Indeed, we think the effect will be
healthy for the South. Capital will
draw out of stocks and bonds, and seek
more substantial investment in the
mineral properties and industrial pro-
jects of the South In 1884, when a like
temporary disturbance unsettled finan-
ces in the east, surplus capital moved to
Minneapolis and Duluth and built up
those cities. The inducements to come
South now are Infinitely greater than
they were to go West in 1884. Reasoning
from this premise, we feel very sure that
surplus capital will flow into the South
after January LIST, and that increased
activity will prevail throughout the
South, wherever the natural conditions
are such as to give promise of healthy
returns. We have confidence in the
natural resources of Virginia especially,
and this portion of it particularly. We
know, in part, what we have here, and
we know capital could find no safer
place to invest. Our own people should
move forward energetically and at the
same time on legitimate and conserva-
tive lines, and all will be WE'LL
