The service on the Santa Fe, Pres colt 6 Phoenix is soon to be greatly improved, although it has been all that could reasonably be expected in the past.
 President Murphy. who is in the city, announces that it is the inten ton of his road Ito add another train which will leave Phoenix tn the evening and returning arrive in the morn ng. This will make a train each way every twelve hours and will make close con- necti0n at Ash Fork with the trains on the IA & P. A Pullman car VII. likely be attached to the night train. This is @ service equal ito the trunk lines and one that the people of Phoe- mix and Prescott ought to fully and substantially appreciate.
 Since the building of the north and south road methods of transportation and communication from Phoenix have changed. The Maricopa & Phoenix and the Southern Pacific have both made a greater effort to accommodate the traffic. and now we have the West ern Union and Postal telegraph Hines with lower rates.
 All of this has been brought about by the coming of the new road and nov we are promised still better ser vice. President Frank M. Murphy, as the man responsible for the building of the road. is entitled ot the gratitude of the people of the Salt River valley Of course the road was cons .ructed tc make money. But except for the ef- forts of President Murphy it is doubt ful whether the line would have been built for several years. Now the peo- l pie of the valley with additional ship. ping facilities can make money fol I themselves while they are making the
 transportation lines profitable invest ments for the owners. Let us give credit to whom credit IS due.

To show the popular fealng through out the east, and especially so far as it refers to one of the most prominent! industries of Arizona and the whole west generally, we are allowed to quote the following from letter received Sunday morning sby prominent parties n this city from a wealthy mining man residing in Rochester, N. Y.:
 I'm my opinion there is not a man interested i'm mining in any way that can afford ito support any one but the straight Republican nominee, who ever lhe may be, and on whatever plat form he may be placed before the country. The present stagnation in mining matters and bus. ness generally in my opinion, is caused by the action of the present administration in Wash ington, absolutely At any rate, peo- pie in the cast are wanting a change and until such time as I can see a bet ter business outlook, I propose to steer clear of all interests west of the Mis- sissippil river, mining and everything pl-e''

THE REWARD OF FAITHFUL
 WORK,

Redlands (CaQ) Ctroyraph The of ficial paper of Mamicopa county, Ari- zona, that imperial country in whose most fertile valley sits Phoenix like a crowned queen upon an emerald throne, is a little four-Dage sheet about 6x9 inches, pub lished in' little settlement. some ten miles away. This curious anomaly arises out of the action of the board of supervisors, i'm fit of sple- metic economy, letting ltihe contract to the lowest bidder, regardless of all else.
 This Official paper has done moth ang ito help build up Phoenix or the ad- jacent valley. It has probably never brought in a new resident. It never circulates outside the contracted boun- diary of its usual horizon. If it did it would repel, rather than attract. the prospective immtgrant Yet the super Visors made it the recipient of official favor, and, doubtless, congratulate themselves because they have "sayed the peoples money"
 Such spigot saving it not rare. We have seen the same thing closer home than the Salt River valley. We have witnessed the same -congratulator hugging more times than was good for our faith in human nature or belief in gratitude for labor done pro bono publico.
 But we presume it was 50 in the be ginning, we know it is so in the pres ent, and we again presume it will so go on forever. The newspapers of Phoe- nix, that have done, are doing and wil continue to do to the end, so much tt build up their city, get left when there is little patronage on hand to dis tribute.
