For the beneit of the Phenix Repub- licxn we will state that Mohave county contains more acres of irrigable land than does Maricopa and also that the climate of the Colorado river valley is
 as tropical as that Of the valley of the Salt river. The Republican has more to
 learn of the resources of Mohavs county
 than has the Inter Ocean, and before it
 flies of the handle and catechises the
 latter journal. should read up on the sub
 ject. In Wallapai valley alone there are
 one thousand six hundred square miles of irrigable lands and vas body of
 water underlying the same which can readily be used. In the mountains sur rounding this valley there are streams of water running down the canyons into the valley all the year around. Along the Colorado river there are thousands of acres of the finest orange land to bs found on the Pacific coast and there is no the fact that the Colorado river contains enough water for irrigsting pur- poses. Another point in favor of agri- culture in Mohsve county is the unlikeli- hood of . flood coming down the valley and picking your farm up and depositing
 t upon that of your neighbor, as vas done by the recent floods in Salt river. .Mohave Miner.

The Phenix Herald does not seem to think that the north and south road con- meeting Prescott with the town of Phe- nix will be built and it rather expresses [ hope that it will not. 1t says: "The result of the railroad situation is probably going to be this, that there will be no road built to Prescott. When the thing is simmered down to point. this valley would be hundred per cent better of with . road to Holbrook or Flagstaff, where it would be in the direction of coal fields and through lumber region, and by which this valley would have . direct outlet to the east for it's early fruits. This is the route over which this valley has long desired road, but be- cause there appeared a chance to get one to Prescott that route has been urgently advocated. Nov that that chance seems to have failed the people of Phenix, Mesa, Tempe and the whole Gila and Salt River valleys will bend their ener- gies to get road where 1t will do them the most good" If the Herald really expresses the views of the people of the Salt River valley on this subject we can not but express the hope that they may get the road they want. A connecting line between Prescott and Phenix would
 bs worth to the latter town ten times what it would be to the former. We have nothing but timber, mineral and
 building stone in the wsy of natural pro- ductsto offer the people down there in exchange for the varied products of the Salt River valley, but we could raise cash to buy their products. By keeping this money at home the whole territory would be benefited. But if Phenix gets suIky about the matter and really does not want our cash, we can do as we have been doing for years, send it to Califor- nia and Kansas for these products, and when our briny sister gets her Flagstaff or her Holbrook road she will be but little better of than at present in the matter of getting market for her sur plus. In the meantime Prescott will push narrow guage roads out into the great mineral sections that surround her and will continue to prosper.
