Arizona this week. On Tuesday

from Washington ordering them to
reserve from entry portions of
township land, 2 South, range IA
and 10 east, from any disposition

Arizona, is brought up at the next .
session OF congress, it is probable
the larger railroad systems; enter

Texas and other large systems en-
tering the territories directly or
