ANCIENT IRRIGATION.
Its Traces In Arizona and Among the California
Missions.
[From the Denver Tribune

ltrOm the Denver IrlDune
In Arizona there are the remains
of irrigation ditcnes on a large scale.
M. Pinart. the French scientist, who has
just returned from an exploring tour in
that Territory, traced an old irrigation
ditch on the Salt River, an afffuent of
the Gala, for fifteen miles, The ditch
was originally about ten. feet deep,
twelve feet wide on the bottom and
seventeen feet wide ON the top. Tue re-
mains of transverse bitches could also
be traced without difficulty. By means
| of.irrigated fields, the valley oil the Gila,
lwith its afiluents, was made to support
| a large population. But with all these
jevidences OF very perfect system of
liagriculture, no metal implements could

like locking the stable door after the exit

the experience of the misuse of the Fund

In accordance with a petition from the
Democratic voters of 1azoO, bill Will
be introduced in the House of Repre-
sentative, detaching 4azoo county from
the River District and annexing it to the
Fifth District, to which it belongs geo
graphically and politically. The grounds
on which the petitioners base their &C
ton. are lust and reasonable, and are as
follows:
To throw into the River District a
county which has four thousand Demo-
cratic majority, will aot redeem the Dis
trict from Radicalism, but will simply
result in losing that majority in the State
elections, which are Of much more import
ance to the party than any Federal cleo
tions can be. The knowledge of the fact
that their efforts will avail nothing, can
not fail to paralyze the energies of the
party. Again, with the exception of
Warren county, Yazoo county has no
business associations with any other
county in the River District. She has
generally been considered an interior,
rather than river county, because four
fifths of her population lies east of the
YazoO river.
Annexing Yazoo to a hill District only
renders Democratic success more certain,
for under favorable circumstances, her
majority can be preserved. The question
is simply whether these circumstances
shall be allowed to remain favorable.
Will the Legislature risk the loss of four
thousand majority to the party in the
State in 1877? The argument that
the the matter has been settled
amounts to nothing, if an error has been
committed. We trust that the Legisla-
ture will take the matter in hand and
adopt the supplemental bill without a
waste of time. 1t is right in principle,
and wise in policy.
