 to finish the good work.
 When entered this Territory, three years
 ago, found nearly every one speaking of
 sending io, or going inside. Enquiring of A
 Hassayamper where that place was, he told
 me San Francisco. I found the whole busi-

 Doods were received in return, that were
 made in the Eastern States, and had their
 value enhanced 50 per cent. Cbut not their quality by stopping them in San Francisco
 and paying the enormous taxes and profits
 levied there. l found every miner look-

 was eventually to dispose of his mines, and l the United States were practically ignored. |

 Since the commencement of my humble efforts, backed by the quick and generous patronage Of the trading public in and around Prescott, for seventy-hve miles. nave succeeded in accomplishing one thing , the complete and total annihilation of the I High Prices, which had begun at that time 2 10 cause settlers to leave, disgusted with the :. . where oyeralls were S3 70 pair: nails 40 cents pound; an axe handle sI % and lead pencil, 2 cents, and other things in proportion.
 During the time have beon in business here, the Southern Pacific R. R., has carried freight from New York and Boston to Ynma q 1t Sz cents per pound; their rates are now 2 triile higher, but still low, and they deserve 'redit for their freight tariff ever since they n opened their road to Yuma.
 They have only anticipated what Boston Capital was doing in another direction. put. \ Ing Arizona in direct communication with io he Emporiums Of the United States, which Ire Tn New York. Since then more mines m lave been sold 10 Ea stern parties than san francisco. More aud more merchendi ri las come directly through from the East nd what predicted as to the futu-a of Ari- ona, that her great development was to ome, by, and through Eastern capital. eems certain to be realized.
 l am about to visit the East and purchase , nore goods for my two storas here, and i'm eviewing the past three years, I wish to ssure ali who have cast in their lot with 'orhern Arizona, that while wages will fnr
 long time remain where they now are. nat prices of merchandise can nerey arain 0 to the old rates, and that the spectacle of man vol king thirty or thirty-o one days for o. and paying g 5i' for pair of overalls Ill never again be seen. The public. whc om tho first and without cessation, up the resent time, have so generously patron ed me have done the good work.
