Salt River valley farms yield high profits per acre
The Salt River valley is cited as highly profitable for farming and stock raising, with net profits of 20 to 40 dollars per acre in the past year and land valued at 200 to 400 dollars per acre on a ten percent return. A broad petition seeks fair taxation on railroads and mining outputs, while legislators are criticized as ineffective. Construction of the Mesa and Globe toll road progresses, promising a direct wagon link to the Grobe country. Judge Pomeroy allows Farrell to remain on recognizance after preliminary exam, with grand jury review pending.
