ture, which have been subjected to referendum by legal petitions, duly signed and filed with the secretary of state, which legislation is to be acted upon by the people in their collective capacity at the election on November 5th. These are the semi-monthly pay day bill, three-cent per mile fare bill, elec- tric headlight bill, three years experience for trainmen bill, and the bill limiting the number of cars a locomotive shall haul in a single train.
 If accepted by the people of Arizona, the bills enumerated will diminish railway earnings in the state, it is asserted by competent experts, who have gone. into the subject thoroughly, and made close and careful calculations, by nearly $1 100000 per annum. That sum of money would pay the inter- est on $3O,OOO,OO0 of 596 bonds which sum of money would build many miles of railway. The ques tion up to the voter when he marks his ballot on the fifth of November. is "can Arizona afford it2" Can Arizona afford to force legislation that will check the flow of outside capital into railway construction that is needed greatly for advance ment of development of the new state?

CAN ARIZONA AFFORD IT?

It is a conceded fact that for development of her unparalleled resources Arizona needs complete system of railways, and that to provide such system there must be constructed yet within the state many thousand miles of track. In the very near future Santa Cruz county will need railway line ex- tending from Vail, on the main line of the Southern Pacific down through the Elgin region and the San Rafael Valley to connection with the Nogales- Cananea railway on the international boundary, at or near Gorilla station. Another line that will be needed in the near fu- ture will be from Amadoville, on the Tucson-Nogales road, out into the Orc Blanco country. There is not a county in the state but needs or will need shortly one or more such lines.
 Another conceded fact is that the money to construct new lines of railway in the West has to come from the East; it has to be bor- rowed. Loans on bonds have to be negotiated to supply funds for such construction. The facility for borrowing such money is regulated to a great extent by the earning power of the proposed railway; and not only by that but by the earning power of the railways already in operation. Any diminution in earning power renders less attrac- tive to investors in such securities all that may be offered to extend construction within the state, and such would be investors will be disposed less to take the securities.
 With the propositions presented in the foregoing paragraphs there is up to the people of Arizona the question whether they can afford to put upon their statute book the drastic legislation directed against railways by the first state legisla-

line and engaged him board

can, whom he had brought from Scot
land and who lived in small clear
ing he was working out between the
swamp and the corduroy. When the
gang pulled out for the south camp
Freckles was left TO guard Il fortune
| in the Limberlost. That he was under
guard himself those first weeks he new
| er knew.
! Every hour was torture TO the boy.
/ The restricted life OF great city or
! phanage was the other extreme of the
world from the Limberlost. He was
afraid for his life every minute. He
cut a stout hickory cudgel, with a
knot on the end as big as his fist. and
it never left his hand. What he
thought in those first days he himself
could not clearly recall afterward.
His heart stood still every time he
saw the beautiful marsh grass begin
sinuous waving against the play of the
wind, as Mclean had told him it
would. He bolted half mile with his
first boom of the bittern, and his hat
lifted with every yelp of the sheitpoke.
Once he saw a lean. shadowy form
following him and blazed away with
his revolver. Then he was frightened
worse than ever for fear it might have
been DunCan's collie.
The first afternoon that he found
his wires down, and he was compelled
TO plunge knee deep into the black
swamp muck to restring them, he
could scarcely control his shaking hand
to do the work. With every step he
felt that he would miss secure footing
and be swallowed up in that clinging
sea of blackness. In dumb agony he
plunged along, clinging to the posts
and trees. He had consumed much |
time. Night closed in. The Timber
growled and awoke about him.
There seemed to be a great owl boot |
ing from every hollow tree and little |
one screeching from every knothole. |
Nighthawks swept past him with their
shivering cry, and bats struck his face.
A prowling wildcat missed its catch
and screamed with rage. A lost fox
bayed necessarily for its mate The
hair on the back of Freckles' neck rose
like briStles, and his knees waveFed
under him. He could not see If the
dreaded snakes were on the trail nor
in the pandemonium hear the rattle
for which Mclean had cautioned him
to listen.
Something big, black and heavy
came crashing through the swamp, and
with n yell Freckles broke and ran
how far he did not know But at last
he gained some sort Of mastery over
hixself and retraced his steps. When
he again came toward the corduroy

THE LIMBERIosr GUARD.


II RECKLESS came down the cor
X duroy that crosses the lower
end OF the Limberlost At d
IL glance he might have been
mistaken for a tramp, but he was in
tensely eager TO belong somewhere and
20 be attached to almost any sort OF
enterprise that would furnish him
food and clothing.
Long before he came in sight of the
camp of the Grand Rapids Lumber
company he could hear the CHEEKY
voices of the men and the neighing of
the horses, and could scent the tempt,
ing odors of cooking food. A feeling
of homeless friendlessness swept over
him. He turned into the newly made
road and followed IL to the camp.
The men were joyially calling back
and forth as they Embarrassed tired
horses that fell into attitudes of rest
aud crunched. In deep content, the
grain given them. AS he wiped the
Hanks OF his big bays with handfuls Of
papaw leaves, Duncan. the brawny

said
The cook glanced him over and an

The color flooded Freckles' face. but
he said simply, III you will be having

With a shrug OF establishment the
cook led the way TO a broad. square
shOuldered man. MIR. Mclean. here's

OF the boss sharply. II will interview

Freckles stood one instant as he had
braced himself 10 meet the eyes OF the
manager, then his arm dropped and a
wave Of Wilderness swept over him.
The boss had not even turned his head
20 see the deformity pointed out TO
him. He had used the possessive
When he said my man" the hungry
heart Of Preckles went reaching out
