THE COLORADO COLONIZATION
COMPANY.

This appears to he a company
organized in San Francisco for
the purpose If colonizing certain
lands lying adjacent to the Colo
rodO river, between Yuma and
the month of that stream. They
are now engaged in cutting the
vast fields Of wild hemp upon
said land, and have the machin-
cry on the way for manufactur.
ing this hemp into ropes, cOrdagr
and Begging 1terial We had
anlinterview the other day with
Mr. q. F. Bateman, superintend.
ent ofsaid company, and he in
forms us that they intend to cul-
tivate rice and cotton, and that
he had alread, sh pppd the neres-
sary seeds also seed Of the Ken
lucky hemp, to propagate that
plant after the wild crop shall
have been cut. There is an i'm
portant enterprise just starting
among us. and we hope it may
be successful. There are probably
no finer lands i'm the world fOl
raising cotton, rice and hemp
than those on the Colorado, Gill
and Salt rivers And here alsC
grow in perfection, all the semi.
tropical fruits, side by side with
al the fruits Of the temperate

Blanco, the man who had always
been associated in their minds as

The defense finally introduced
testimony, showing that Barha
