There seems to be a hitch between
the local Directors of the Arizona
Central Railroad Company organized
for the purpose of building a railroad
from the A P to Prescott
and the eastern capitalists Our
Prcscott friends better not be too ex
acting or they may drive capital
away from the enterprise The Cour
ier of the 10th inst says
The railroad situation is about as
follows Mr Tom Bullock backed
by plenty of money says he is de
sirous of at once building a north and
south railroad He has here a com
pany that is ready and anxious to
turn over all acquired rights to him
These people have a small force of
men working on the line of the road
Mr Bullock is expected in Prescott
on Friday evening next A convey
ance will meet him at Ash Fork and
bring him here He says he will con
struct a standard guage railrcad
Major Wilson and other capitalists
have been thinking of building a
narrow guage road This our peo
ple do not want That is they pre
fer a standard guage so that cattle
etc can be shipped without having
to change cars loo often
The local organization known as
the Arizon Central Railroad Com
pany claim to have expended between
6000 and 8oco in surveying map
ping etc They would of course
like to be reimbursed Mr Bullock
through some of his friends made
them an offer which report says was
rejected They discussed matters
with Major Wilson and party and at
yesterdays meeting acted patriotical
ly in agreeing to place their books
maps etc at the disposal of the
company that will prove by its acts
that it means to build and equip the
road in accordance with the act passed
by the Thirteenth Legislative Assem
bly As soon as the first ten miles
shall have been completed the com
pany building the road can if its di
rectors see fit pay to the Arizona
Central Company amount expended
by its members lor surveying map
ping and other work This state
ment may not be exactly correct but
it is at least nearly so Gov Tritle
Messrs Bashford Head Ellis Butler
Behan and other citizens whose names
we do not now recollect subscribed
liberally for the work we have spoken
of and their action in the premises
cannot but be applauded by people
generally The Governor is out more
than anyone else and we hope he
will in some way be reimbursed for
time and money spent in so good a
cause

Under date of Deming June 8
General Crook telegraphs to Wash
ington as follows Preparations to
operate against the hostiles in ac
cordance with my telegram of the 5
should be made with the least possi
ble delay As a rule the Indians
thus far have only killed citizens to
get arms and amunition but if after
some ol their number have been
killed the Indians have been driven
back into the United States there is
no estimating the damage they will
be likely to do The number of peo
pie living in the mountains aid their
property interests have increased
enormously since the time of Victorio
so that if the Indians meet again in
these mountains such a wail will go
up as was never before heard
In transmitting this dispatch Gen
eral Pope says that he has eomplied
with General Crooks request to the
extent of his power and submits the
matter for the action of the war de
