AIT. Cutler assures the Epltaph, in an interview, that the Mexican au- thori;ies arg offering every possible protection and encouragement to American capitalists. They are de termincd to specially protect all min ing interests, realizing that these in- tercsts constitute the wealth of their country, as well as their inability to develope such interests without the aId of foreign capital. The country certainly has q bright future, and only needs money and energy to bring it out By way of caution Ar. Cutler adds. that Sonora is no place for poor man at present. Poverty has been the great drawback of the country, and unti' the capital, which is now fast pouring in, has lime 10 work out its beneficial re- suits, poor men had better keep away from Sonora.

Judge French leaves for Tucson, where he goes to open court, Judge French dislike very much to leave at this time, with so much unfinished business on hand. He had ho- ed that Judge Silent would take h-s place on the bench of the First Jrdi- cial District, but the acceptance of tbat gentleman's resignation makes it incumbent on Judge French to open court there at once. So that, from present appearances, the people of this county will have 10 wait until January, before any business can be transacted.
 This is awkward condition of things, anG real hardship 10 the pee pie of this Judicial District. The; is a great deal of business Cem ,nding immediate attention, and some mat ters of general interest to our people, which will have to lay over until the January term, unless the successor of Judge Silent should arrive in the meantime.-DemOcrat.

We Mean 1t.

The Phoenix HERALD has the mar vicious cheek to assert that Prescott Is more convenient location for the capital than Tucson. Why, bless you, old son, Calabasas or San Simon or Peialuma or the jumping off place of the next world would be a more convenient place than Prescott. Uugh. just think of travelling three hundred miles more or less, q stage coach and in the dead of winter, and at every turn of the road expecting 10 see an amateur north pole with the ghosts of Jim Bennctt's explorers loailng around. Get out-you don't mean il,
 Yes, VIC meant Prescott is more convenient for Northern Arizona than Tucson but Phoenix is the most convenient and best suited for the Territory at large. Hope next month q majority of the Legislature thinks with the HERALD.

 Legislative suggestions by the Silver Belt:-Therc can be no valid objection urged against the move mcnt to form two new counties. The growing necessities of the sec tions of country interested impcra- lively demand it. The question of county courts is an important one. While we are not in entire sympathy win ihe people who re most anx- ious about the establishing of these courts, believing il will increase litI gation, and prove a windfall for law yers only, We believe that some change Is necessary in the legal ma chinery, so that liiigants may get their cases finished, without dancing attendance about lhe county seats, al great loss to othcmsclve=,sors session after session. \ lien law should be framed that would positively insure to workincmcn their just dues. We are in favor of revision of the laws of the Territory by commits sion of good lawyers, and we believe that closc copying of the Califor- nia code will come as near being right as can be.

Tine tiiEe has now arrived 10 blow land Tor g-aFe planting Flowing should be deep. Just before plant icg. the l.lnd should be thoroughly pulvcrlzcd by means of a cuitivator or harrow, or both. The surface should be made as mcllcw as pOSsi- ble. Tn such a condition it acts like q mulch, and keeps the soil below the surface continually moist. Gapcs can be planted in January, February or March. When the rains continue late in the season many parties plant in April, but ihe occasional hot winds that sometimes happen in that month endanger the life of the cut ting during planting, SO that the safer time to plant appears to be between the first of January and the first of April. Grape piAnting will be very active this year, from the fact that grapes are dear, and that cuttings of the choicest kind can now be had at low prices. The most popular varie- ties for wine making are Biauc Elha. Zinfaldel, Berger. RiesIing and Black Malvoisie, while for raIsin making the White Mu~caf Of Alexandria is chief. About l, coo, GOO cuttings have been sold of the above varieties Il ready this season and should the above varieties already this season and should ;he weather continue fa- vorablelt is likely that 5GO.0OO more will be purchased and planted. Los Angeles is now far ahead of any other county Tn the State in the value of iiS grape crop--Los Angeles Com mercial.

The window will : he abou; : feet in diameter and 2S16 inches in thickness, with appropriate inner and outer face-casings. From the smaller central circles will spring eight heavy pillars of beautifully carved wood, the sections between which will be ornamented by smaller direct and inverted scmi-circles. and Inc en ire work will receive q highly ornamental finish that will greatly add to the beauty and Imprcsslvcnos of the new building. II must be a matter of just local pride that this beautiful handiwork of the artist Tn wood is produced III our own city, without the necessity of appealing 10 outside talent, and We feel assured -tlfat this new departure in our local workshops will stimulate the growing taste of the community, and create much demand for the orna mental in our local architecture. While WIG have among us workmen capable of such productions, it will not be necessary for us to send our orders for ornamental work 10 distant cities. On the principle of honor 10 whom honor is due,'' we may state that this notable production of 1 the talent and skill and taste of our fellow-townsman, has been most gen erou5ly anl entirely doiat 10 the new church by MT.
