Sewer Bonds and Sewer Assessments

1 The report made to the mayor ant i council by the board of consulting en. gineers to whom the sewer plans haC been referred contained some advice
 which scarcely comes properly under the head of engineering advice. w, refer to the recommendation that thu sewer system be paid for ,,y assess ments upon the property benefited rather than by an issue of city bonds As citizens and taxpayers, these en- gineers are entitled to the liberty oi opinion. like all other citizens. and their recommendation as to the meth cd of payment should be considered citizens. The question as to how the sewer system should be paid for is c question of policy. purely. and not one of engineering. And on questions oi policy. it seems to us. the lay citizen is quite as competent to decide as the engineer
 Each Of the two plans of payment has its merits, but the stronger argu- ment appears to be on the side of the bond proposition. As Judge Bennett so clearly pointed out at the recent meeting of the City club. public inn provements made at great expense, which are for the benefit of the city for all time. should be arranged on such lines as will lay at least part Q: the burden on posterity. So generally accepted is this doctrine as sound that practically all public improvements in the United States are paid for by bond issues. It is only when there are right payments in cash that a differ ent rule is preferable. Such eXcep- lional conditions existed when the ter ritcry found it necessary. two years ago. to construct a new penitentiary, new hospital for the insane. and new buildings at the university and al the two normal SCHOOLS lHIS CoH- struction. calling for an outlay of more than s325, 5,O0O. was paid for in cash because the tax system had been so reformed as 10 provide the cash without increasing the taxes; indeed. it was done under reduced taxation.
 But the city of Phoenix is not situ- ated as the territory was then. To pay outright for the sewer system by assessments upon property would amount to an immediate and greatly increased taxation on the property di- rectiy affected-which would be bur- densome
 And at any rate. notwithstanding the advice of the board of engineers. the city administration has already wisely decided in favor of a bond is- sue.

Its Meaning for the Valley.

The incorporation of the forty-mil- lion dollar Arizona Eastern Railroad company. with Robert s. Lovett, pres- ident of the Southern Pacific head ing the list of incorporators. as de- tailed in our news columns yesterday means great changes on the railway map of Arizona. It was quite the most important news published locally in many a day.
 In addition to absorbing the numer- Ous Southern Pacific branches in the territory. known as the Randolph lines. the Arizona Eastern proposes the most extensive construction pro- gram that has been undertaken in Arizona since the development of the Murphy lines under the auspices of the Santa Fe It is really the first comprehensive Arizona construction proposed by the Southern Pacific in terests since the completion of the trunk line of that company.
 The plan is 10 build through the valleys Of the Gila and Salt rivers from Yuma to Phoenix. 160 miles; using the existing Phoenix X Eastern from Phoenix to Winkelman. 106 miles. this line is to be extended to San Carlos. calling for new construc- ton at that end of some 30 miles; thence, using the existing Gila Valley. Globe X Northern from San Carlos tn Solomonvilie: there is to be a new line between SOlOmonville and Lords burg, calling Tor a total of l50 miles of new construction in order to fur nish a direct connection between Phoenix and Lordsburg From San Carlos. northerly and notheasterly. via Globe Cusing the Gila Valley. Globe & Northern from San Carlos to Globe) there is to be line to Durango. Colorado. 20 miles of which will be in Arizona
 The building of the line from Yuma to Phoenix will immediately add more than one million dollars worth of taxable railroad property to the wealth of MaricOpa county.
 Most important of all. the consum- nation of these plans will place Phoenix and the Salt River valley on q transcontinental line operated by the Southern Pacific. and over which the Santa Fe will have trackage rights by virtue of a contract heretofore made Through trains. carrying thou sands Of passengers every month. will run from Chicago and New Orleans through this valley and through Phoe- nix. 10 Los Angeles and San Fran cisco Taking advantage Of the stop over Trivileges. thousands of travellers will stop every winter to see Phoenix and the famous Salt River valley. The line will inevitably lead to q through train service between Denver and Los Angeles. by way of Phoenix. When one considers tha[ the money expend- ed by tourists is the chief asset of Los Angeles and southern Califoria. it is impossible to measure the value of a transcontinental line to Phoenix. So far as this city is concerned. the through line" will be second only in value to the Roosevelt reservoir.
 All Of this benefit is in immediate sight. Its certain consummation awaits only the granting of the desired right of way through the Gila canyon.

AN EVENING PRAYER.

Tonight I lay the burden by.
 As one who rests beside the road And from his weary back unbinds
 The whelming load. I kneel by hidden pools for prayer Still waters fraught with healipt power; In Gods green pastures I abide
 This longed-for hour. I know that day must bid me face Courageously my task again. Serving with steady hand and heart. My fellow men. To hold my sorrow in the dark,
 To fight my fear to hide my pain. And never for one hour to dream The toll in vain This be tomorrow: now, tonight. Great. plying Father, l would be Forgiven, uplifted. loved, renewed. Alone with thee.

be fact that the engineering skill of America is not equal to the task of devising a system of shafts and tun- nels that will furnish more than one avenue of escape. it is remarkable thing. We are told constantly that there is no difficulty which American engineers cannot surmount. if pro- vided with sufficient funds. And if engineers are not equal to this task. the operators of coal mines should call for an advisory board of farmers who are gifted with common sense.
