THE BLIGHT OF THE SOUTHERN

Thorp are'.other newspapers besides

that question was removed from poll

admission of the ncturc of the iiolllloK
which iierntoalcd all through Ihe last
two democrat la plate comrenl lotus. We
fancy, however, this declaration Is a
little premature.
The Soiif tern Pacific has owned
C'lillforntn for something like two de-
cades. Hits It quit, polities there?

the proceeds of their crops for them-
t.cives, Their uuhappy situation re-
calls most vividly the (protestations
of those who dts-larcil that the mer-
ger hill was essential to rallr -ad de-
vctcument In soutluweatorn Texas.
Will some apologist of the merger

Huh not the Southern Pacific been
In absolute control of the railway sit-
ttat; n In southwest Texas for twenty
years, and ha* it ever been prevented
in any way from building such lines

Has not the Southern Pacific njnde
virtually a desert of every district
which was wholly within its grasp,
whether in California. Arizona. Now
Mexico or Texas?
Is not the blight of enforced Ihot-

wholly dominates?

Indeed, have they read lhe.tr own his-

It. was CMitcnded that the merger
was desired merely to facilitate the
operation otf tfhe lines owned by the
Southern Pacific and to enable it. to
reduce expenses to the extent of
sometMirg like $10,000 a year. As a
matter of fact, the management or
these fines .has, under Southern Pa-
