SONORA RAILROAD l NEWS IS UNCERTAIN
Nothing Known of Ultimate Outcome of Surveys That
 Have Been Made.

Notwithstanding the eagerness of the people interested in mining property south of Nacozari, Sonora, and Tn prop erty in Douglas to learn something definite concerning the railroad situa- ton to the south of that city, there is absolutely nothing known about what is likely to occur. It is known that both the Southern Pacific and the Nacozari railroad have done a great deal of surveying below Naco- zari; both companies have surveyed a line down the canyon south rom Naco- zari and continued as 1ar as Mocte- zuma and below, the lines being prac- tically parallel.
 It IS known that the Southern Pa cific surveyors have peeu surveying a line from Cumpas and also from Fron- teras east in the direction of Candnea. It is known that the Soucaern Pacific is now working on thS grade of their line up the Yaqui river from its june ton with their Guaymas and Guada- lajara line. located early In the year. It is also known that during the pres ent month the Southern Pacific SC, cured a concession to run line east from Cananea to junction with the Sonora road at a point south Of Her mosilln.
 The Southern Pacific officials and the Phelps-Dodge representatives are alike very close mouthed about what their intentions are as to railroad building south of Nacozari and the public is left to guess what is to hap. pen by what has been done in the way of surveying new lines.
 of Daily Review, who returned from Moe work below Nacozari nor any grading forces Several engineering parties were seen below Nacozari and Mocte yuma. At Nacozari Mir J. s. Douglas was not inclined to talk about the railroad situation, but made it clear that his company expected to extend their line south.
 Douglas is greatly interested in the from Nacozari: 1t would also be in terested in having line of the South ern Pacific reach that city from the south, but the last surveys made by the Southern Pacific would indicate with Cananea and the international nection with the Cochise branch through the city of Douglas.
 Douglas has so far done nothing in the matter of even trying to find out what may be in store for that city ir the matter of railroad lines reachine the Mexican coast to the south 1t would seem that this railroad situa ton Is of sufficient importance tt warrant an effort on the part o Douglas to get in communication with both the Phelps-Dodge peo pie and the Southern Pacific with ths purpose of trying to give encourage ment to the extension of the Nacozar line farther south and inducing thu Southern Pacific to bring their lint coming up the Yaqui river to that city

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR THE ELECTRIC FRANCHISE AP- FLIED FOR BY THE INTERNATION- AL GAS AND LIGHT COMPANY. Election will be held Dec. 18th, 1906.

 3.-Because the company will give the city 225 kiIowatts per month free of charge for the lighting of its pub lie buildings.
 4.-5ecause the street lighting rates will be materially reduced, and the public will be generally benefited thereby.
 5.-secause the franchise asked for Is not an exclusive franchise and any body else wanting to go into the eiee- tric business can secure another fran chise regardless of this one.

THE ARIZONA MINING AND TRAD.
 ING COMPANY

The attractive office recently estab lished by these peopie on Ninth street is now as silent and its walls as bare as Tarra's halls, but no unfavorable impression regarding that change can be afforded in the premises. C. A. Overlook, the main spoke in the enter prise. recently visited the property and found 1t to consist of a splendid prospect. The first six pertenencias were bonded and subsequently, bought from Frank Watts. They are patent. cd and the transfer or title is daily expected from the City of Mexico. In addition to this the company has de- nounced some sixteen pertenencias surrounding the original property. The ore body has been exposed and clean ly cut by canyon for some distance. In the bottom they have sunk on a ledge about ten feet with good results. The ore will bear shipping and the company propose to avail themselves of that fact as soon as the transfer of title is received. A test carload of ore will be shipped at that time and if results warrant, shipping will be kept up indefinitely.
 Chas. Hanson, of the Monte Visto. goes down to that property tomorrow. Preparations will shortly be com menced in that district on the Monte Visto for reduction works, on the Con- contraction, Gold mine and Fl Cozone for systematic development, while Harry Loevin and Con Vasgreen are making great progress and reaching most satisfactory rcsults on their Elizabeth property. The whole dis trict appears to be looking up right smart as the Hoosier says.
