 The creation of this corporation makes it clear. if it had not been made plain previously. that the Southern Pacific proposes to build a through line. via Phoenix, from Yuma to Lortlsbufg. This line will give the Southern Pacific the most level line through. the Rocky Noun tain region that is possessed by any of the transcontinental lines.
 or course. as everybody in Phoenix now understands, the construction Of this through line is contingent upon the approval of the right of way ap- piled for by the railway company through the Gila canyon. It will be i noted that the company in its articles | has made provision for the contin- gency of the failure of this applica- ton, by providing for line to the Durango coal fields as described in naragraph five. If >the company Is | unable to get right of way through ] the GiIa canyoIf>, there seems to be I no probability that it will build from yuma to Phoenix: and the failure to ! construct this line would make il 1 advisable to abandon the projected line from san Carlos to Durango via cIobe and build by way of Clifton. instead. l
