John WassOn.

Mir John Wasson, our predecessor. has been for seven years the editor and manager of THE CITIZEN. Through his characteristic energy and untiring efforts, he made his paper one of th" most popular of western Territorial journals. From financial burden he has, by diligent and constant labor and devotion to the work, so increased the revenue that al the time of the sale, his paper commanded for him a cnm- fOrtable income. AriZ1na could lilly afford 10 loose Mir. Wasson from it's editorial staff, but other duties requir- ed hIs attention. and his own health and that of his wife demanded for him more leisure and recreation. We trust his retirement will secure to himself and companion the health and benefit desired He has the confidence, re spect and best wishes of all good men.
 NIT. WasSon has done great work for Arizona generally. but more par. ticulsrly for Pima county and Tucson, and perhaps his past labors will be bet ter appreciated by the people of ihaI section now that he has ceased tn be their advocate and defender. We fear that the public generally do not realize their obligations to the local press they do not understand its benefits un- ril deprived of its use. We trust ihe peo- pie of Pinal county will appreciate the advantages secured tn them by the location of TIE CITIZEN in this sec lion, and that they will sustain it ac. cordingly-
