A NORTHERN RAILROAD
THE PHENIX & MARICOPA LINE
 TO BE EXTENDED.
Direct Communication With the Atlantic
 & Pacific to be Furnished-Workt to Commence Within Sixty Days.

The chances for a railroad to the north are now brighter than they have ever been before. The latest news is that the Maricopa X Phoenix Railroad Company will commence, within sixty days, the construction of line of road to connect Phoenix with the Atlantic X Pacific.
 Equipped with copy of TIE REpUB- LIcAN, containing the Maricopa X Phe- nix railroad bill, now pending in Con gress, a representative of this paper yes terday sought c. s. Masten, manager of the road, for an explanation of the docu- ment. Mir. Masten was found at his office at the depot, very willing to shed all light desired upon the proposition.
 "Yes," sad he, in answer to inquiry, "that measure was introduced in Con gress at the instance of the Maricopa & Phoenix Railroad, and, furthermore, it means business. We hope to push the matter through this session of Congress {; but, if it is not likely to be reached upon the calendar, we shall submit the same to the Territorial Legislature which meets next month. The terms proposed are so little burdensome upon the com munity that do not doubt of it's pass age, but whether it does or not, 1 am authorized to say that the road will be built by us. My company has instructed me to make arrangements for securing the necessary ties and iron, and the actual work of construction will be begun within sixty davs."
 "What route will the road traverse, Colonel?"
 ' "I have instructions to secure right of way, and at present it would hardly be polltic to say further than that the line will be constructed, as provided in the bill, on the shortest practicable route to a connection with the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad. All plans are com pleted though, and everything in readi- ness to push the work when begun. The road will leave the city from the western end of Harrison street. Our attorney will take immediate steps to open that street for our benefit. You perhaps ie- member that Harrison street was de- clared an open thoroughfare in the District Court several months ago."
 ''In this bill now before Congress, your company asks immunity from tax ation for five years. Do you, by this, waive all claim upon the subsidy which was authorized in the Territorial Legis- lature, subject to the approval of Con- gress?"
 "What our road wishes is simply a fair field and no favor shown. We be- ieve the road would be profitable one and are content to build it upon such grounds alone. But we believe few years eXemDtiOn from taxation WOuld be only just under the circumstances and shall ask that it be granted. The county is already heavily enough burdened with debt and do not think it would be right to ask that further bonds be issued, when all needful assistance could be secured by simple exemption from taxation, which would not work the slightest injury to the county's finances. J
 "But," repeated MT. Masten, "our road will be extended whatever the legislative action may be, and within 8 short time furnish rail communication with the Atlantic X Pacific"

Alfalfa hay is worth sS a ton, with prospects of the price being very much higher by the time another crop is har- vested. Carload after carload is being shipped to California. Orders arrive faster than they can be filled. owing to the shortness eff cars. Men engaged in the hay-baling business say that people who have hay to be baled want to pay cash for the work now, where only a short time ago they were giving half the hay for baling the other half.

THE OPERA.
CAST OF CHARACTERS.

Doncairo ........... ...............E. \. Knight. Fl Remendado.... ...........W William stephens. Captaln .Pler Deiasco.
 Instead of Faust" which had been advertised, the Juch Opera Company last night gave Brizet's charming opera of "Carmen." The audience was at first disappointed, but as the excellence of the performance showed itself, the feeling of disappointment gave way to one of pleasure at so splendid produc- tion. In the opinion of TIE REPUBLI- CAN, 1t IS not in the province of an in- terior paper to criticise an opera or a company like that of Miss Juch, which has made success in the great theatri- cal centers, but rather to treat it as of news interest, and mention the work of those that was especially meritorious.
 Miss Juch was, as she always is, easy and graceful in her acting and in perfect voice in her singing. From her first note in "Thee Love-" until the death scene in the last act, the audience felt her sway and answered to her every nod and gesture. Twice was she called be- fore the curtain, after the first and third acts.
 Payne Clarke, as Don Jose, appeared to good advantage. He has truly musical voice, not robust or harsh either in the high or low notes, but one of those pleasing tenors who charm an audience and make them want to hear more of him.
 As for the other characters none have great deal to do, but their parts were well sustained, Miss Maconda, as Michaela, deserving especial mention. The chorus was above the average of the usual travelling opera company, and the orchestra, under the direction of Mir. Neuendorf, was the best ever heard here People of Phoenix will have hearty welcome for Miss Juch should she ever visit here again.

THE CANVASS IN WINDSOR COUNTY.


The Trade Bugaboo Disposed of by
windsor County Man.
To the Editor of the Free Press:
1t seems to me as though the Page organs
have been setting up men Of straw all
through the campaign to be blown down by
public opinion, The last effort in this di-
rection is a frantic attempt ON the part Of
the Woodstock Standard to strike Lieut.
Gov Woodbury. over Editor Perkins, back
1t alleges that trade has been made be-
tween those two gentlemen or their friends,
and then charges our respected senator with
having voted in 1884 against the dismissal
OF license bill and says that be has de
liberately put himself on record in favor of
license legislation and free rum. the cor
rect meaning of all which is that he is un-
fit for office, and poisoned arrow is aimed
at Col. VI oodbury am confident if the
facts were known that this last charge
would turn out precisely like the railroad
ring charge of few weeks since.
1t is an open secret that Page has
been counting such men as Senator
Perkins for the second place upon his ticket
without success, but that is of little conse-
quencr. What desire to say as "A friend
and supporter of Col Woodbury. is this,
do not know of, and do not believe that any
=
piled, has ever been made between Col
Woodbury. and any man in Windsor coun-
ty. ! do not believe that he expects sup
port upon any ground except his own
merits. have never heard anything to
the contrary, and believe ! should it If it
were so. 1t is true that certain papers have
mentioned Col. Perkins name with others
in connection with the lieutenant governor
ship and he has many friends who would
be glad to see him promoted, but | have
not learned that any person or paper IS
authorized to use his name in connection
with that Office. One thing is certain, the
article in the Standard is too shallow to
prejudice any one against him. In 1SSS
he was elected senator from
this county and had the Stan
dards support What is the Standard 5
charge; That he supported a license
measure No. 1t is simply this, that
when the question came up whether a bill
should be discussed in the House or the ga5
rule applied, Mr., Perkins voted against its
dismissal. This is a long way from record
ing ones self in favor of free rum, and
the editor of the Standard knows it, but in
his zeal for his employer he is willing to
strain every point that he thinks will make
| in his favor. | am in favor Of prohibition
but | do not believe a discussion of n Ii
cense bill in the House of Representatives
would injure the cause in my judgment
it would strengthen it; but it is unnecessa-
ry to waste words upon this subject the
issue before the people to-day is shall L.
A. Woodbury. or c. s. Page be the next
governor. While both gentlemen have
warm supporters in Windsor county the
| Standard cannot win converts by such arti-
Giles as the one referred to. The Woodbury.
men resent such tactics and will work with
renewed zeal for the man whom they be
lieve in every way qualified and worthy OF
! the position.
