Looks Like Southwestern.

4 few months ago the Fl Paso News said that General Manager Sim mons, of the Southwestern, had gone east to make arrangements for ex- tending the road from Benson to the Pacific coast, and that upon his re- turn construction would begin on line already surveyed.
 The Press learned from a man con nected with ' railroad construction company, that bids Are now being PTepsreh sy his company for the con struction of railroad down the San Pedro valley from Benson. One pro vision of the specifications is tine limit Ip which the road must be com pietsd. The gentleman declined to give the name of the railroad com pany for whom the proposed road is to be constructed Or to state the time specified for completion, but gave 1t as his individual opinion that work would begin in the near future. An other man, who has done consider able work in Arizona as a surveyor with railroad engineer corps and IS well posted on the Topography of the country, stated to the Press that, In his opinion one very feasible route
  the San Diego railroad would be by diyerging from the present line east 1 of Benson. and passing through the town close to the mesa, gradually ris' | ing to the top of the mesa southwest of Benson, and thence on over the mesa, entering Tucson from the south. He said this route would give a grade over the divide between Ben son and the Colorado river of not more than one per cent. He also stated that it was known in railroad circles that the Southwestern made survey some time ago through to the coast. The route taken has been kep' secret for obvious reasops, but oul Informant stated that he knew deh nitely no good route cGuld be found between Benson and the internationa line
 ' Another good route would be dowI : Ithe San Pedro valley to a point nea Mammoth, where the old S. P. sur vey crosses the river and thence al most directly west to the Colorad , iriver in the vicinity of Yuma.
 : Still another way through can b to Winkleman and connect with tn : Phoenix and Eastern, in which cas l terms would have to be made wit 7 the Santa Fe system.-Benson Prcs'
