NEW s. F. ROAD
Probability the :. P.Changing
 Its Main Line

The date for fling notice with the Territory to take sdvants ,e of the tax exemption law on railroads, expi'ed last week. On the last day notice was filed which is thought to have bsen de le at the instance Of the s. P- Go. and inspires the Phoonix Herald to make the following observation:
 Another declaration oi intention of especial intere-t to Phoenix Is ona tit- ed ty Attorney-Geueral Aims worth for the building of a railroad from Phoe- nix to Sentinel, and another from Phoenix to solomonvilie and thence ,o Railroad Prss. This declaration is said tn have been filed at the Instarce of the SAurhern Pacific and looks like the beginning of move that has been talked about for ten yesrs-'he re- moval of the main lIne into the Salt River valley. The routes of the pro- posed lines are not a"cura tely describ ed, but if one takes a map of the terri tory and beginning at sentinel on the Southern Pacific, lays if line run ming into the Salt River through the rich Buckeye country of Phoenix thence to Tempe, Mesa. soross Pinsl county into the Upper Gila valley, the second largest and most fertile region in the whole southwest, up the valley through Solomonville and thence to Rrilroad Pass, the northernmos, point on the Southern Pacific in eastern Arizona, he will have line of about the same length ss the main line O the Southern Pacific between Sentinel and Railroad Pass. Should this line he built it i, not likely that the old liue would be wholly abandoned, though tha. part of 1t east of Tucson | would not have great earning ca paci,y ani would off-r no advantage in the way of more direo. route. There would have to be an outlet, through, for the Sonora road. now tn . property Of the Southern Pacific"

A TRUTHFUL STORY
A Heavy Rainstnrm and How
 It Hit the Editor

We would be slow to believe the paragraph below if it had been written by anyone bu. the editor. As itcomes from an editor and editors have to stand together We will not contradict it. Ali we have to say about it, l., It was hard rain storm, The editor of the Jerome Hvstlsr says:
 "Whst We are going to relate nnw stOut this storm is the go-pel truth, and we don't want ouT readers to doubt single statement. S0me ot the largest drops of rain were foot in diameter and from ten to twenty lee iong. They came dewn writhius aud winding like 8 huge serpent and made straigh; for our hesd. The very first drop thA landed wet Us through and through and washed h9le in the road six feet deep. It knocked bou'ders down the mountain side and tore up severa! bushes. When these drops began coming by the millions the water fell so much faster than it could run down the mountain that 1t piled up tan feet deep in the road and Ou. hcr-e had to swim for 300 yards. All our sine were washed away Tn that de luge and we now are truthful aLd moral"
