THERE IS no abatement of the flood

THERE IS no abatement of the flood of immigration that is pouring in on US. For the month of February there arrived in the United States 2S,247 emigrants, while for the same month last year the number was only 15,o75. Of this total num- Der of emigrants there arrived from Germany, S,626; France, 275; Den mark, 2S9; Belgium, %7; Austria, 69S; Scotland, 501; Ireland, 1464; England and Wales, S,073; Hun gary, 1884; Italy, 1777; Netherlands, 235; Norway, 193; Poland, 533; Rus, sia, 1052; Sweden, 431; Switzerland, 431; Dominion of Canada, 3,771; China, 3,3Ss, and from,all other coun- tries, l64. It will be seen by these figures that Germany furnishes more than double the immigration of any other country. The Dominion of Canada standing second on the list, China third with England and Wales fourth. Hungary sends us more people than Ireland by 70, and yet, as Hungarians, they cut no figure whatever. At the present rate of influx from Germany it will not take long for America to become largely Teutonic. In fact, the larger cities of the middle and western states are so already. Thls is so much the case that in all political affairs it has be- come customary to put German on the ticket to catch the German vote. It was not long ago that in Chicago at a political convention, after they had nominated men to catch the Ger man, Irish, English and other foreign votes, an American got up and moved that an American be put upon the ticket to catch the American vote. At the rate foreign immigra- tion is coming to America it will not be long that we, as nation, can claim to be American.

WHEN the Arizona diamond ex- citement was at its height, certain parties in Denver formed the "Ari- zona Diamond Company" capital $1 1000, ,000, and issued shares at five dollars each. Hundreds, if not thousands of these shares were taken without any questions being asked |, but when the wind began to blow cold certain eastern man, says the Wall Street News, who had invested about S5,000, and was hanging around for dividends, dropped into the 7xa office of the company and inquired:
 "What are the shares worth to- day?n
 "About 90, l believe"
 "Has a dividend been declared yet?"
 Mot yet; we are just getting in good shape to realize, however. As soon as we get our machinery we shall have returns"
 "Machinery? What do you want of machinery? l thought the dia- monds1were picked up by hand?"
 "So they are. That is the old way of dolng business, but this company can't fool around picking up dia. monns by the handful. We have sent for machinery which loads 2 wagon in two minutes by the watch and if the cussed mules don't balk we'll have the first "A wagon loads here earl y in June. Fine weather good day, sir.

THE grand jury of Maricopa coun- ty has completed its labors and ad- journed. The final report shows the cash on hand in the county treasury to be $4,S62.SO, of which S653.3O is Tn bank, $3,667.50 gold In the safe, t177 legal tenders, ditto, and s355 silver in the safe. The jury hauls over the coals one of the members of the board of supervisors, and says in conclusion:
 We do earnestly request NJ. Worm ser,as member of the board of super. visors, to resign his position as super visor.
 The specific charges against Worm ser are that he gave in his real estate, consisting of 2,160 acres ot land, to the assessor at s1,500, and that it was only raised by the board to s2,425; that he sold the county nine teen gross of steel pens at one dol lar per gross, and seven dozen pen holders at fifty cents per dozen, and that the pens are q very inferior quality. They further say that eve are of the opinion that Supervisor Wormser has freely availed himself of and reaped all the benefits of his official position to protect his own pocket" Otherwise than the com- plaint against the supervisors, and Wormser in particular, everything is in the usual red tape style. There were five indictments found, none of which were for capital offenses.

General Sherman's Opinion.

iio" iuSoVu ptei'
 The general said to our inter- viewer that he was delighted with the progress of Arizona, and prephe- sled great things for her In the fu- ture. The introduction of railroads, he thought, would open the eyes of capital to the vast deposits of mineral wealth within the borders of the ter ritory. He was particularly delight ed with Tombstone. He told with considerable merriment his introduce ton to Tombstone. He said when the carriage he was in was within a few hundred yards of the town a cowboyish looking individual rode up and asked if General Sherman was there. Being answered in the afr native he pulled pistol and fired two shots in rapid succession. That was the signal for volley, and for few minutes the air vibrated with the sharp report of pistol shots, burst ing of anvils and Chinese rockets. He said that Tombstone was de- cidedly live town, and that he en- joyed himself hugely while there. The ladies of the party were also much pleased with the lively mining camp. Miss Poe naively remarked that she was expecting that at least there would be two or three men killed every day, and to her great disappointment, she added, in the suggestive language of the west, "They hadn't man for breakfast while they were in Tombstone" The ladies thought that the most chivalrous portion of the American people were here in the West.

THE growth of the iron and steel industry of the United States, says the Economist, has been very remar- kable. In 1910 we produced only 50,O0O tons of iron, and our largest furnace could not yield HOO tons annually. But in 1880 the product was 165,000 tons; in 1880 the iron and steel works of the United States produced 7,265, 100 tons. The az gregate annual product of onr manu- featuring and mechanical industries is now $6,000,000QO0. Of this vast product less than S20O,0OO,0OO are exported, leaving the value of $5,- S00,000,000 for home consumption. And of the $900,000,O00 produced by agriculture less than ten per cent is exported. One of the self-sup. porting powers of the American people, and of the mutual relations existing between oLr industries, we can dwell as Americans with the most profound satisfaction. The receipts at the seaboard cities for ex. portation and consumption, includ. ing all kinds of grain, ground and unground, aggregated 352,s21, ,452 bushels in 1879, and 369, ,559,607 in 1880. The whole eastern movement of western grain, including ship ments to interior points on the At lantic slope, must somewhat exceed 400,000,000 bushels-not more than one-sixth of the total production of an abundant year.
