RafIr6ad 10 White HiIIs.

Last night John D9nair, division su. perintendent, Hon. F. T. Aspinwall and w. R Hllman arrived in Kingman to make thorough examination of the re sources of the country north of King man from a railroad point of view
 Messrs. Aspinwall and Hillman will visit all the mining camps as far north as the Colorado river and make an exhaustive report to the general office of the Santa Fe. The road will pass north of Beale Springs, skirting the mountain along the ravlne over Coyote Hill and along the foothills of the Sacramento Valley. The road will pass close to Cerhat, Todd Basin, Mineral Park, Chloride and White Hills. The steel that is now be- Ing taken from the main road of the At lantic & Pacific will be used in the con structon of the new line. The new road will work revolution in the mines north of Kingman, as many low grade properties now lying idle will be enabled by It to ship fhelr products to the smell ter and receive a profit. It will also attract capital this way and do much to bocm the big low grade gold properties of the Cerbat and river ranges.
 The road will be built within a year to reap the benefit of the tax exemption clause. There has been good deal of talk of the road being built from Han- cock, but as Kingman has been the best patron of any town on the line of the A & P. we see no reason why we should be given the go.by. With the building of the White Hills line will follow the removal of division headquarters from Needles and Kingmsn will be made the big town of the western division of the Santa Fe and Pacific.
