The Arizona sentinel., 1875-05-01

The following from the Alta
California, is worthy of considera.
ton, and is just as applicable to
Arizona, as to California. Let
our people plant trees. Plant them
on your farms and on the road
sides. Plant them everywhere,
and you will bring not only
wealth to yourselves but add to
the beauty of the country:
1t may be doubted if there be
any crop of any kind which in ten
years will give such grand returns
for the expense of their cultiva-
ton, as will trees properly select
ed with reference to the soil and
climate. We saw a paragraph re-
Gently which described the won
derful success of tree-planting by
a firm in New Zealand. The re-
suits were wonderful in the value
of the trees produced. amounting
to hundreds of thousands of dol.
lars. There is scarcely an acre of
land in California that may not be
made valuable by the production
of trees.

"The Pacific Railroad Abandoned.

The Salt Lake Herald, under
the above heading, uses the fol-
lowing very pointed and truthful
language:
The Union Pacific Railroad Co.
has reIinquished the attempt to
stem the food which has proba-
bly, swept away a large part of
their track and some bridges in
the vicinity of Bitter Creek, Wy
oming Territory, until the waters
decrease. At the last accounts
on Friday the torrent, fed by the
deep SHOWS in the mountain ca
ions, was still rising. All west
ward bound trains since the 18th
are laid up along the road, the
passengers being comfortable
housed so that they will suffer
no inconvenience. No trains were
dispatched from either end of the
line on Friday, and it is impos-
sible to obtain any information as
to the probable resumption of
travel, though it is to be hoped
that the trains will be running
again on Monday.
It is limited that this disaster
to the Union Pacific is the pun
ishment for the Jay Gould-Pacific
Mail combination, but there is no
reason why the Central Pacific
should not also be punished for
it's sins, and unless it is also food
ed we must reject the theory. 1t
is useless to grumble. 1t is harder
on the railroad than on the COM
munity, and self-interest will force
the company to strain every nerve
to reopen communication.
The close of the continental traf-
fic for a single week even is Sc
rious affair and will doubtless aid
the Southern Pacific Railroad en-
terprise in the next Congress.
Our transcontinental relations cam
not be safely confined to a single
line Of road which is always liable
to be INSTRUCTED in certain seasons.
The interests of the Pacific coast
are too large and the intercourse
between the East and the West
too extensive to be thus DEEPEN
dent. That Southern continent
tai railroad is a national necessity
is this week more apparent than
ever. and were Congress now in
session, it could hardly avoid
granting the Incidental aid asked
by Colonel Scott for that enter

Among the Tucson dispatches
to the San Diego Union of April
oath, we notice reports Of gang
of desperadoes infesting the Low
er ella Valley: The Uaioy's re.
porter has been humbuged by
some one, or he is trying to hum
bug some one himself. TheIe is
no such gang in the Lower ella
Valley, for the reason that quick
punishment has of late followed
the commission of crime in that
locality. One of the parties re-
ported to have been recognized
by Mrs. Peck, has "materialiZed"
himself, for he was certainly hung
by the neck until he was dead,
the next day, but one, after his
killing Mr.. Whistler.
We feel sure that there has been
some mistake about the matter.
Our part of the Territory has new
er been more quite or law-abiding
than at present, and we hope no
more sensational reports will be
sent abroad unless they be true,
for they do no one any good, and
may do us much harm.

FRUIT GROWING IN ARIZONA

We have often written about
the adaptability of Southern Ari-
iona for the growth ofsemi-tropic-
al fruits, and the experiment now
being made by DR.. F. ii. Good
win. on his ranch ten miles East
of our city. proves fully that we
are. and have been right. The
DIR. planted in March about 100
frees which are now doing nicely
the fig, almond, and olive trees
particularly so. He also put out
a large number of grape cuttings
and roots of the best varieties,
which will doubtless yield an
abundant return.
This is a step in the right direc-
ton, and one which we hope to
see followed by many of our far
mers. There is a world of the
best of land lying vacant, plenty
of water to irrigate, and nothing
wanting to make comfortable
homes for all, but energy and
Dluck.

THE HUMBUG OF PoLITICs. =
The Sacramento Herald, dis
courses as follows on this subject,
and the ideas expressed will fit
other localities than Sacramento.
We are glad that no election takes
place in Arizona this year:
We are now about entering up
on the era of one of the greatest
humbugs pertaining to our politi-
cal and social systematic hum
bug of politics. This particular
humbug is constantly bobbing up
and down-going to and fro
through the land, as one might
say-but periodically, once every
two years, it swells out to vast
proportions. 1t promises to be
greater this season than ever.
Three political parties will enter
the field to contest for the purses
hung up in the shape of official
salariesand perquisites-especially
the perquisites-and each will do
its utmost to outshine the other
in the great science of hum
buggery.

Exquisite Revenge.
From the Virginia Eenterprise.

notice. will not be responsible for
any debts contracted by my wife, Maria
Charnay, she having put me out OF the
house. ANTOINE CHARNAY.
What a revenge the heroic
Charnay takes! What picture
of the skeleton in his closet he
photographs for the public! Mrs.
Charnay has evidently made it
exceedingly warm for him. Doubt
less there was a time when he
thought the name of Maria was
sWeeter than an angels incanta-
ton; when he used to dream of it
at night, and when because Of the
memory of it, the sun was bright
er in the heavens by day. That
has all changed with Antoine
now, and evidently he would
dodge behind a dead wall to avoid
meeting her now with more ala
Gritty than of old he fastened to
her side, when the billing and
coping days were on them, and
she said Antoine in a scarcely
audible voice, and he answered
'Maria," and gasped and sighed
because of the very ecstasy of the
thing. And when they were wed
doubtless he wondered how so
much good fortune could come to
him, and was surprised that the
whole world did not say to him
''she is a very angel" He is shy
of angels now and feels queer
when he thinks how such gentle
spirits can materialize so rapidly,
and how different was the tone
of old when certain lips were wont
to whisper, "Dear Antoine" from
the sounds which afterward greet
ed him in "You AntOinep until
the supreme hour, when the wife
of his bosom threw his blankets
out of the window and merely
said, "Gitr Brooding over these
things, the prosecuted man, as
usual, concluded to rush into
print. He believed in the potency
of the pen over the sword, espe-
cially in dealing with Mrs. Char
nay, and he determined doubtless
to write such a notice as should
open the doors of that home of
his without the aid of a battering
ram or policeman. 1t is first
rate notice and reminds us of the
Irishman who, little in LIQUOR,
tried to get into a ballroom when
a fancy dress ball was going on.
He was of course kicked out. He
then went to a side window, and
\ shaking his fist at the blazing
lights and happy couples, thus
through the darkness hurled his
unheard threat: "Pll make a
ball of me own, and Pll not ask
the one of yees, not one of yess;
that's what won't at all. +"

A man named Merritt, from
Troy, New York, has been prOwl-
ing around the Republic of DOmi.
ca, in the West Indies, and has
discovered something which very
nearly resembles the Bible dis
cription of hell. It is a bottomless
lake of red-hot water, boiling saw
agely, half a mile wide and two
miles in circumference. In the
centre the seething mass shoots
far into the air, and the arid de-
solate shore is laved by steam.
The water is heavily charged with
sulphur. Merritt is the only Am
erican who has visited the hOr-
rible place. An English Compa-
ny is going to try and manufac-
ture sulphur at the burning lake.

The Los Angeles Express, is
now a very large and magnificent
paper, very ably edited and splen-
didly. printed. We don't know
what the daily is, but the weekly
that comes to us is altogether first
class, and does great. credit to
Los Angeles and all Southern
California. It is hardly too much
to say that the Express is equal
to any paper in the State, as it eer-
tainly is superior to nearly all of
them. 1t is worthy ola very large
circulation, which We hope it will

Good Words.

The New York Times has an
article on the true policy of the
country, in which the following
paragraph occurs:
This complete restoration OF
good feeling is the pressing need
and the duty of to-day. The
North can do most toward its &C
complishment, and the people
around us are determined that
a sincere effort in this direction
shall be made. Recent elections
have shown this. Fortunate will
it be for political leaders of what
ever party or grade, If they quick
ly respond to the sentiment.
"Push things was an excellent
motto ten years ago, when a hos
tile army was to be destroyed.
Now, the encouraging word and
the helping hand, from the North
to the South, will do more than
soldiers or oppressive legislation
can accomplished. The spirits
which suggests Force bills and the
like was born of the war, and is
condemned by the popular judg-
ment. At the South it will be
met by sullen resentment, If not
sporadic hostility. At the North,
one party or the other is certain
to be used in the immediate fu-
ture In an honest effort to restore
the era of prosperity and good
will. This work the people, we
feel safe in saying, would prefer
to entrust to the Republican Par
| ty. Whether they will under
take it depends entirely upon the
leaders.
Excellent words, which will
meet a hearty response from every
patriotic citizen in the land. But
why did the Times, which talks
so finely, give its whole energies
to the task of defeating aid to the
Texas and Pacific Railroads.
measure which is beyond all 9TH
ers 1.-THE helping hand" to the
South? The Times limits its eff
forts toward the restoration Of
good feeling to ''the encouraging
word" The proverd that Ac-
tions speak louder than Words
has a fitting application in this
connection.

About Mexico.

Is Mexico destined to be reac-
tionary in spite of all efforts to
the contrary Those who wish
well to our neighbOr had begun
to hope from the apparent and
comparative peace which has pre-
vailed for some time that a new
life had commenced for the ma.
ton, and that Mexico had really
entered the lists of progressive
nations. But recent events in
many parts of that country tend
to cause distrust. We are sorry
for this. We hope that such in
dicatiOns may not mean so much
as we are forced to believe with
present limited information as to
recent events. But from various
parts of that country the reports
that reach us are not assuring.
There is too much of the old spirit
of lawlessness afloat.
And from the head of the Gov
eminent itself come indications
of the old, retroactive spirit. Some
years ago, a decree was issued or
a law passed which allowed Our
traders to transports goods for sale
from the Mexican port of Quay
mas to Tucson. This has been q
great benefit to such, and quite a
flourishing business has sprung
up in consequence. But now
comes a decree from President
Lerdo de Tejada, forbiddng all
such transportation over that
route, without having obtained
previously a special permit for
that purpose. If such a ruling is
to stand, il will virtually break
up that line of transit. So we are
informed. This is cited only as
an instance of trade when at
tempted to be carried on by
A mericans in Mexico.
But it is not the only one.
Americans appear to have nOshOw
in Mexico, unless they marry
some Mexican woman. and join
the church, One cannot generally
otherwise carry on trade there
with any surety of success. The
least mistake or omission to COM
ply with the laws and regula-
lions of the country brings the
trader into the Courts, and once
tn ere, good bye to any trial until
his funds shall have been exhaust
ed. 1t is pretty we'll known that
the people of any other nation
have a much. clearer field for
trade, and in fact any kind ofbusi-
ness in Mexico, than have our
own. Why this is so, unless the
memory of the old war causes it,
we cannot say. But it is so, and
there is no apparent modifying
influence. We regret this, be-
cause there should be no discOrd-
ance between the two people,
