ARIZONA & CALIFORNIA
IS A VERY BUSY LINE
GENER Al MANAGER DRAKE
TELLS SOME VERY INTER-
ESTING FACTS.
Heavy Rains Caused No Washouts ant
Train Service Was Uninterrupted.

Vice President and General Manager
w. A. Drake of the Santa Fe, Prescott
& Phoenix railway, arrived in Phoenix
yesterday upon one of his periodical
visits to the local offices of his road.
His private car occupied a siding near
the Santa Fe depot throughout the day.
Part of the day Mr.. Drake was in con-
ference with General Agent w. S
Goldsworthy.
Speaking to a reporter for The Re
publican, Mr. Dake stated that no small
portion of his time had been spent for
sometime past in looking after the
construction and operation of the new
Arizona a. California railway.
I'VE have had especially heavy traf-
fic over cur new line" said Mr.. Drake.
land have handled it in an entirely
satisfactory manner When the heavy
rains caused such annoying washouts
upon the Santa Re main line it was the
Arizona & California road that came
to the rescue. No less than fifteen
heavy passenger trains were diverted
over this road, which made it possible
to send these trains through with COM
paratively little loss of time.
Despite the effect the storms had
upon the main line, we experienced
little or no difficulty and did not suf-
| fer a single washout. l believe this
! line is bound to grow in usefulness as
| time passes, for it runs through ter
ritory rich in natural resources and
which is becoming more valuable ev-
! cry day.
1T will be but short time when the
| Colorado River Indian reservation will
| probably be opened for entry and this
will add to the Importance OF the Ari-
IONA & California. There are scores
of other reasons why / feel confident
that there is a great future for our
new road.
1--WE have been particularly fortunate
| In securing an adequate water supply
for our desert run. We have drilled
four wells and in every instance have
struck an abundant supply of water
| to be used for train purposes. We
have decided to drill several more wells
upon the Arizona side and feel con-
| fident that we will secure plenty OF
water and thereby eliminate hauls "a
| the stations.
we have cleaned up our usual mid
| summer rush in handling sugar beets
and | believe today we sent the last
car of cantaloupes that will be shipped
this year over our lines. This
has been a particularly heavy
season in both branches, but we
have been enabled to handle il
in a manner satisfactory to US and we
believe in a manner satisfactory to al
others concerned"

II you expect TO have any direct IN

succeed in getting your party to

party seems to think that self-preser-

of many men who otherwise would
gladly fight Tor what they believe is
