Los Anokm.s, May 18. C. V. Hunt

merely travoling over tho state to see
what wo shall build whenever a now
road ii needed and business will justify
it."
"What special policy has iho company
outlined in reference to future manage
ment?" "Wo have no special olicy, only that
of railroad building."
"I mean in referonco to politics."
"We have no political policy. I'nm a
railroad man and the company has
nothing to do with politics."
"A number of people affect to lielicve,
Mr. Huntington, that the Southern
Pacific Company is pushing Stephen M.
White for the United States Henator
ship against Senator Stanford,"
'We have no choice and do not push
the interests of any particular can
didate. We treat everybody aliko and
treat them fair and square so long as
thev treat us right."
"Then the railroad has no interest in
politics?" ,
"No; but our employes its private
politicians can exorcise their own politi
cal privileges. I have frequently told
men that, ns American citizens, it is
their duty to vote."

Tlio San Diego TForW, a daily paer
just started on the great bay of the
Southwest, has the following of local
interest :
We hare Just receivoJ iMtire and reliable
Information from Phoenix, Arizona, raying
that the construction of a railroad there run
nlnz northward to a connection with the At
lantic it Pacific railroad Ik being pushed, and
its i nrly completion 1st certiilnty. It la being
imshi-d by "Uiamocd Joe" Reynold, the mil
lionaire Mlstilnlppl Hlver steamboat owncr.who
also ov dh the Arkansas Hot Huringi Kailroad.
About a year ago the incorporator of aid
railroad now being built northward, from
1'hoetilx, alio incorporated a cotaiany to build
southwesterly ton connection with the South
ern Pacific at Yuma, anticipating a road being
built from hero to said Uet lwint
We understand that cntenrllng Phoenix
will be a liberal towards a roud from Phoenix
to Yucia, connecting with a lino from here, as
kIio ua towards the road now being oullt from
Phoenix nnrthn aril, to which she Rave a quar
ter of n million subsidy. With three-quarters
of a million subsidy for a line from San Diego
to Phoenix, tho rich Halt Rivir Valley will
toon enjoy the bene 3 H of a rsllpj.vl to tide
watir. While this announcement in some
what premature. Tiir. KiU'imticAN is in
position to say that the next i hrec years
will see more railroad building in the
southwest than has len done
in twenty years. Theso lines will
nearly all head for San Diego
bay nnd two of them at least will
pass through Pho-nix. The ".'oat re
sources of this country aro licing ap
preciated by moneyed men abroad and
its pi osperous future h assured. With-
in a year Phtenix will not only be con -
nected with Prescott by rail, but at least
one other line oi railroad w'iu oe in pro
cess of construction.

Toad, legally known as the Han Diego,
Cuytthiaca & Jiastcrn. 'Hub road is now
built out of San Diego to a point near
tho Cuynmaca mountains, a distance of
about fourty miles. Tho road will in
tersect the Southern Pacific at or near
Dos Palmos, but the latter company
failed to see how it could profitably
operate the local line. What tho
Southern Pacific wants is a direct line
from Yuma to San Diego and thence up
the Coast.
Dow, Jones & Co. of New York, give
out the following as a Boston special :
Some time ago the people of San Diego
subscribed $600,000 subsidy to any
transcontinental line that would build
to San Diego. Negotiations aro ponding
to at vert the subsidy to tho Atchison in
view of its placing a trans-Facific
steamship line between San Diego and
Japan nnd Australia. The steamship
lino could bo in operation in 'sixty days,
whereas two years would lie necessary
for building the transcontinental road.
The former would in time force tho lat
ter by the increased bueiaeee San Diego
would develop.

A I.emon to the I'arenta of I'hasnlz
OfHceni L'umilng; the Wretch I,at
Night.
At about four o'clock yesterday after
noon tho 8-year-oM daughter of one of
the most prominent citizens of Phccnix,
a deputy county official, wai playing
beside tho city ditch at the north end of
Center street.
The little ono finally grew tired at her
play and sat down to rest. Presently
an attache of one of tho faro games of
the city, who had been watching her,
saw a large, powerful-looking man, a
stranger and apparently aJforelgner of
some sort, come lounging along Center
street and sit down beside the girl.
Presently the stranger took hold of
the child and began taking improper'
liberties with her, upon which sho tried
to break away from him. Seeing hec
struggles, the watcher went quickly over
toward the couple, and the would-be
outrage fiend, jumping up to meet the
new-comer, the little girl was released
and ran aw ny. Her rescuer, Davis by
name, grappled with her assailant, w ho
proved, to bo too powerful for him,
finally biXUrig loose and running
away.
Ho lost his hat, how over, in the strug
gle and stop-led at Berger's corral to get
another, saying that he had lost his in
a "scrnp" up town. Tho hat was given
him a very good description of the fel
low, which was r-ubscquently furnished
to the officers, Iwing obtained nt the
snmo tiuio and ho departed.
Later in the day tho matter was
reported to Marflial Blaiikenship, who
spent the greater part of Inst night

A Review of These Cases Up
To Date.
How The Zulick Hold-Overs Were
Contending1 For a Principle and
Wonldn'c Yield to Law.
The so-called penitentiary r.nd insane
asjlum cases, involving the Zulick and
Wolfley appointments on the lxmrds,
are set for hearing today.
Considerable interest is felt in tlies.0
cases 'and a review of them up to
date may not be uninteresting.
On April 10, 1890, Governor Wolfley
nominated to the Territorial Council a
full set of Territorial officers, and they
were duly confirmed by the Council.
They qualified and enteral upon the
duties of their offices. Then was put
in operation n scheme to keep these
lawful appointees out of their sev
eral offices in defiance ot law.
C. Meyer Zulick, who had just
gone out of the office of Governor, has
been charged with having conceived the
scheme and promoted it. All the offices
had been previously filled by Governor
Zulick, but the Council rejected the
nominations and the Zulick nppointees
simply held tho individual commission
of n deposed Governor, saving a few,
who were confirmed in Mnrch, 1887, and
whose terms of office had expired in
March, 188!. These Zulick nominees,
however, despite their rejection by the
Council, refused to retire or surrender
their otliccs when thj apointees of
Governor Wolfley, who had all been
been confirmed, demanded their poi
tions. The Zulick nominees then claimed
that there was no lawful legislative
Assembly in ses-ion when Governor

torial credit. Auditor Meador contin
ued to draw warrants in defiance of law,
but Governor Wolfley refused to count
sign them, acting under the guidance of
common-sense and legal advice. Theso
warrants were not accepted or registered,
and not paid by the Territorial Treas
urer. The warrants drawn by Auditor
Hughes, Governor Wollley's ap
pointee, have, however, been reg
ularly countersigned, accepted, reg
istered and paid by the treasurer
when funds were on blind for that pur
iioso. When there were no funds on
hand the hue and crvof illegality, which
the holdovers and their coadjutors anil
retainers maintnineel, enabled the war
rant speculators to depreciate the mar
ket value of the warrants and to pur
chase them for a time below par.
All this while the Zulick holdovers
were contending that they were acting
in good faith, that all they wanted was
a decision of any court as to the legality
of the legislative session, and if against
them they would retire at once, but that
until such a decision should be made
they would continue to hold on at what
ever cost, exjonso, loss or injury to tho
Territory. In January last a case was
presented to the Sunremc Court of Ari
zona involving nil tiiese questions, and
nfter an elaborate argument it was sub
mitted to that Court and taken under
advisement. Alwut two months agon,
decision was rendered, being the case of
Cheney against Smith, with which tho
whole Territory is familiar. The deci
sion was to the effect that the Leg
islature was lawfully in session in April,
1889, that all of Governor Wollley's ap
pointees were entitled to their office
and that the holdovers were usurpers.
Though this decision was duly ren
dered, published and officially brought
to the attention of the holdovers, they
failed to abide by it or by their loudly
innde promises. The "principle for
which they cluimed to be contending was
upset, but they still held on.
Under this state of the case Attorney
General Churchill instituted suits in
behalf of the Territory against thefol-
