TIE other day we took a stroll by some Of heranchs in the valley below town, just 10 inform ourself how our farmers were pro- gressing wjtb.thei work and what were their prospects for the season. We could not have undertaken more pleasant task. The great fields or barley are as fresh and vigorous as could be wished. The alfalfa is thick and strong and in a few weeks will be ready for the sickle, the peach trees are literally covered with blos- sons, the grape vines and roses are put ting forth their hardy shoots and every thing in the vegetable kingdom seems fresh and new. One could scarcely imag- inc, amid all this wealth Of vegetation that he was in the very heart Of the often so called dry and desert like Territory of Arizona" The fact is that Arizona Is far from beng a desert, and our valley is closely allied 10 a garden.

SOME men feel honoredo and grow
proud over the entrance Of a son into
the ministry of the Lord. Gen. Sher-
man is not one of them. His son
Thomas was educated without regard
to trouble or expense, and he expected
much from him at the bar. But Thomas
possesses a quickened conscience and
has determined upon the priesthood.
Consequently the General is greatly
disappointed. No doubt Tecumseh's
warrior spirit slides in the same groove
as did the old Scotch baron who said
he had only one son who was worthless
lin battlel and he was bishop.

being on safety paper, were disposed of
by them before leaving town. The

two sharp rascals, and are holding
them to see if they are not wanted.
They register in different places under
different names, as being from Boston,
San Francisco and Chicago.
