TRAINS CROSS THE CHA
Phoenix Once More in Direct commu-
 nication With the South.

After an entire week without any trains from the south, communication was opened by rail between Phoenix and Maricopa this morning about 10 o'clock, says the Enterprise of Wedn- eSday.
 Repairs to the bridge crossing the Gila on the Maricopa & Phoenix line were completed much sooner than ex- pected. it being figured out yesterday afternoon that the break in the bridge could ndu be repaired before this evening about o'clock.
 By working two large pile drivers night and day the 300 feet of the bridge swept away a week ago by the high wa.er in the Gila was repaired this morning, temporary piling being driv- en into the river to remain there until the water subsidies and permanent re- pairs can be made.
 Today's train from Maricopa brought a number of people to the city, who have been water-bound at the former place for several days, some of them as long as a week. They state that during the time the Gila bridge has been out the population of Maricopa has been considerably greater than any census reports will show. Hotels have been crowded.

RIGHTS OF ARIZONIANS IN THE
 GOVERNMENT.
The Views of Governor Kibbey in an
 Albuquerque Paper.


 The Albuquerque Citizen has ob
 tained the views of Governor Kibbey on the subject of joint statehood and prints them along with the picture ol the governor who says: "I think l am entirely safe in saying that the vast majority of the people of Arizona are opposed to joint state hood of Arizona and New Mexico. even though single statehood should be denied for an indefinite time.
 The Hamilton bill, which was m der consideration at the last session of congress, is particularly obnoxious to our people. That bill first con- summates the iointure of the two ter ritories as a preliminary to the state making process. New NJ syicO has two or three times our voting pcpula- tion and would necessarily predomi- Late.
 The bill provides for a constitution. al convention, to which forty dele gates were apportioned to Arizona and seventy to New Mexico. It is further provided that the constitution framed by this convention shall be submitted to the people, not of each territory. separately, but to the people of both territories joined for that purpose. Thus New Mexico can preponderate in framing the constitution, and enforce its adoption against the unanimous protest of every citizen of Arizona.
 That is un-American, arbitrary and unjust
 Tt has been our observation that eastern people are too little acquaint- ed with the local conditions here and In New Mexico, which are influential and ought to be controlling, in the de- termination of these question.
 The people who have settled in Ari- goa are mostly American citizens. If they possess those qualifications which would make them fit to partic- ipate in the affairs of a state govern ment composed of the two territories as American citizens, they are fit to consent or dissent from the proposed government.
 American citizenship is an undi- vided attribute. and not an aggregate one, and each man of our few is just as tenacious of his rights as an Amerf- can citizen as each one of the millions Of the greater states, and he is just as much entitled to them.
 "A residence of more than eighten years in Arizona. and an extensive &C., quaintance throughout its extent and a participation extending over most of the time of my residence nero in it's public affairs affords me opportunities for knowing the sentiment of our peo- pie of the territory. I have no hesi- tancy in saying that the sentiment of our people is overwhelmingly against joint statehood"

CONCERNING THE COST OF GRAD
 ING A ROAD.

The board of supervisors has let the contract for grading the Roosevelt road between the Highland canal and the east county line to Shattuck and Desmond for S1,500, says the Phoenix Republican. There was one other bidder, R. Toohey, who offered to do the work for 12 cents a cubic yard County Surveyor Streits was sent for to say just what that meant It was found that the bid of MT. Toohey was equivalent to about $2.2OO.
 There must necessarily be guess work in bidding for this kind of work but it has turned out that some of the bidders have guessed wildly. When the matter first came before the board reclamation engineers said that the work would be done for between $1, 200 and S1,500. With that understand ing the county undertook oassist in the building of the road.
 Bids were received a month ago in answer to advertisement and the lowest knocked the board off of it's perch. It was 5000 For a time the board was in doubt whether it should proceed any further in the mat ter. But it was finally determined to advertise again and new specifications were prepared. They could not and did not differ essentially from the for. mer ones. The change proposed very little reduction of the cost of doing the work, yet according to the bids of yes terday $500 has been knocked off. The stretch of road to be graded is about ten miles.

Rush to Prescott-There has been little abatement in the travel to Pres. colt which set in from the city several weeks ago, at the time that report came out of the new and important gold strike in Yavapai county. Not x day passes but couple or more Bisbee miners do not leave for the new fields. This travel has been encouraged by letters which have come back from those who have reached the fields. In these messages they say, that reports sent out from the new gdld field have, not been exaggerated, and that things, there have an excellent lock.
