come the great seaport of an
inland empire of its own?"
Many in Arizona who have
given the matter some thought
see many possibilities in the
union of the two couuties and
this state. For one thing, they
point out, the question of the
Colorado river as respecting
Arizona and California would
be solved since all would go to
one state. except the allotment
to Los Angeles. The question
would then be one, it is explain
ed, between an area where the
water is to be used and q coast
al city, and not between two
states.
1t also was pointed out that
the citizens of Imperial and
San Diego counties would be
closer to their state capitol than
they now are, and that Arizona
would acquire a great deal oi
new taxable wealth, with a gen.
eral reduction of taxes both fol
the two counties involved anC
the state of Arizona as it is
now constituted.
