Graham County District Attorney Buying Right
 of Way
FOR THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC FROM soLoMoNviLLE UP THE CHA TO THE MOUTH OF THE SAN FRAN CISCO IN NAME
 OF ARIZONA
 EASTERN

Through District-Attorney Rawlins of Graham county, the Southern Pa cifiic has purchased a clear right-of- way from Solomonville up the Gila Eastern river to the mouth of the San Francisco, in the name of the Arizona Eastern Railway, the construction cor poration for the new low gradient, shortcut line across the territory, says the Los Angeles Times in spec ial correspondence. The work in the canyons of the Gila in the two stretches below San Carlos aad be- low Guthrie is of the heaviest de- for the statement that in the two canyons lies fifty-five miles that will cost s60.000 a mile to build In the San Carlos canyon twelve tunnels will be necessary. Several hundred men are working in the lower canyon, un- der charge of R. R. Coleman, one of the best railroad builders of the West
 For years he was a superintendent for B. Lantry & Sons. He was sup erintendent of the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix Railroad curing it's con struction period. It has been estima- ted that the Arizona Eastern will be completed in about eighteen months.
 The Fl Paso and Southwestern rail road system has been inspected late ly by a party of Rock Island officials who found much of interest in the great shelter at Douglas, the copper mines at Bisbee and the gold mines at Tombstone. Through President To- rec and General Manager Miller prob
 ably told the exact truth when they insisted they were out simply to look at a country that supplied them with much freight traffic, their visit was the cause of renewing the wild stories that have floated about for the past two years that the Rock Island is on the point of taking over the Southwestern and extending it on to San Diego. Another story is that after acquisition of the Phoenix & Eastern, which would simply mean a coalition with the Santa Fe in the Southwest. The only road that San Diego seems at all likely 10 get is an extension of the Southern Pacific I'm perial line, from Yuma to the Coast

years, when he began business for himself in the same line at the Frank lin mine. After carrying on opera tions there for year and a half. he sold out to Baer Brothers. of Han cock. then entered the employ of that firm in the old shop where he had formerly worked under NIT. Leopold, who had sold out to Baer Brothers. His second period of labor in that shop continued for year, and he then entered into partnership with Baer Brothers under the firm name of Baer & Dymock, opening butcher shop in Fifth street, Red Jacket This was in the spring of 1868. The firm built up very prosperous business. and My. Dymock eventually sold out his business 10 Baer Brothers, who still have control.
 The career of the late Mir. Dymock was mos. successful one, and enter. prise and industry have been the i'm portant factors in his prosperity. All that he had was acquired through his own efforts, which entitle him to be numbered among the class known as self made men. Up to the time of his death he was vice president of the First National Bank of Calumet.
