AND now the San Francisco News Letter has got it. Speaking of Arizo ma, that paper says:
 Governor Stanford has we'll called il " the treasury chest of the continent" ." From what is daily coming tD light in regard to its mineral wealth, it seems destined to justify the name. A cor respondent writes ihat-"Arizona is brimful of possibilities 10 the adven- turOus and knowing For the mere laborer and constilutionally helpless man, it is not yet the place. and may not be for years; but for the frontiers man and the man of resources. the Territory Is destined for years to be a sort of Mecca. The transportation between Adonde and Tucson is some thing 10 wonder about Every little while tOurteen-mule teams are encoun- tered struggling along with freight. At almost every point of the three days and nights stage journey be- tween Yuma and Tucson there were camps of from three to five persons. who were footing it on to the Ultima Thule of AriZ0na-Tucson. The rail. road is some thirty miles beyond Adon- de, and still the cry is, onward and souihward. Altogether, there is every indication that Arizona is the miners promised land"

The Labor Market 0utIook-Better
 PrOspects.

NEW YORK, January 27.-Yarious evidences are cited by the Commercial Bulletin, to show that there can be no question that the industrial, not less than the commercial situation, is steadily improving hereabouis, and
 that the outlook for the coming Spring and Summer, as regards employment for the laboring class, is more prOmis- ing than 1t has been since the panic. The revival of building enterprises, under the combined stimulating inhu- .ences of cheap money, cheap material and low wages, is also noticeable. Movements of that kind are announced as under way ia many of the great cities throughout the north and north
 west. Mosl of the great manutactur
 ing establishments centering in and about New York are doing satisfac- tOrily, and if the scale of wages Is down Co the aute-war leYel, there is a corresponding reduction in house rents, food, clothing, and other necessaries of life, and the condition of the mechanic and working classes at this moment is better than it has been for years They have fairly turned the corner of hard lime, and have reason to look forward 10 an improvement of their position, the more especially as there are now no longer any strike movements worth mentioning in any part of the country, while trade interference between em- ployer and employ6 has about ceased, and the communistic nonsense encOur- aged by political demagogues previous to the elections last autumn, has died away with the sober second thought of the great body of the American people. which, as heretofore, is always right and never wrong.

CHICAGO, January 25-A Journal
 Washington special says: Members oi the National Academy of Sciences are
 bringing great pressure to bear upon the House, lo induce them to supp0rl scheme tO consolidate all the Govern ment surveys, placing them under charge of the Coast Survey, and then transferring that branch of service from the Navy to the Interior Depart ment. IL Is plainly eviden; now that the scheme Is simply a huge job, in- volving millions of money. and con cocted 10 provide places for several members of the Academy of Sciences. who have vainly endeav0red for wears past to get control of the Government surveys. The fact that the influence of prominent members ot Congress has been solicited to secure these per sons appointments if the scheme goes through Congress il will not has served Co confirm the suspicion of members that the project is simply one tO Oust those WhO are now in charge Of the surveys and make places for some members of the National Academy of Sciences. The strong protests which have been received here from all sec tions of the West against the proposed scheme leave no doubt that Western Congressmen will quite generally op- pose It in the House.
