"The legislators of Maricopa
county were elected upon a county
platform that cmphatjcally declar-
ed for freight and fare bill and
we fell that every man elected on
that issue will stand honestly by
the platform upon which he was
elected. The talk about honest
equitable laws over injuring an in
dustry is buucomb. An equitable
freight bill will neither hamper
the railroads nor retard railroad
building" -Ga1ette.
While the legislators of Graham
county were not elected on any
such pledges yet we fell certain
that they would be in favor, would
vote for and would assist in every
possible way to enact an equitable
freight and fare bill one that will
do Justice both to the railroads and
to the people.
