In Interest Of Railroads.

The effort to repeal the desert land
and timber acts is claimed to be ad-
vocated by the rsilroad com mpanies. By
repeating these Is~s 1t would greatly
enhance the price of the land along the
railroad lines which has been practically
given to the companies. II these acts
are repealed il will certainly make their
