Facts for Thoughtful Democrats.

In the middle of Grants second term
there was general revolt against his
administration, and the Democrats car
rled the seven states of Massachusetts,
Connecticut, New York, New Jersey
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana by an
aggregate majority of 117,OOO. In 1876
Mr.. Tilden, the Democratic candidate
for President, carried four of these
states, namely. Connecticut, New York,
New Jersey, and Indiana, by making re.
form In all departments of the govern
ment the controlling idea Of the strug-
gle.
Four years later, in the contest be-
tween Hancock and Garfield, the Demo
Gratis were sanguine that the four states
above named would 90 for Hancock.
This would have given him the victory
with electoral votes to spare. But at a
critical stage of the campaign the Re-
publlcans managed to change the en-
Tire aspect OF the conflict by abandon
ing the issues growing out Of the civil
war and bringing forward protection to
american industry as the hinge on
which the result ought to turn, Under
their new banner the Republicans vigOr-
0usly assailed the wavering lines of the
democrats In Connecticut, New York,
New jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio and In
diana, and Hancock lost these six man
ufacturing states, with the exception of
New Jersey, which he barely saved by a
plurality of 1900.
These facts are worthy of the cOnsid-
GRAFTON OF those Democrats who are pre-
pairing platforms and selecting candi-
dates for the next Presidential election

The Phen1x Herald in referring to an article that recently appeared in the CITIZEN. comments as follows;
 Tse CITIZEN might well have sad thai within the past three years we had made ,b,.e advances ia sgrleulture and hofu- cultnre, for It is fact that most ot our 5svelopment has come within that time and We dp not hesitate to assert that w,.b,n the next eighteen months greater dsveIopmeuts ID the cultivation or tlt so-I i'm this region of the country VIII tai,. ,,laee than ID all the years the val iev has been settled. More land VIII Oe br,ught into state of cultivation win in that time tl aD IS now cultivated m tba entire valley. And there VIII douot less be some considerable change as 70 the oh racter of the products ot the val is,. Up to the present time It has Oeep bt-le less than wheat and barley and Utile these will continue tO be pro dnced m considerable quantities, the better paying crops will be largely ln- trCduced.
 The uniform success of cultivBlng the land by system of irrigation ls ample de nonslratinn that this system Is me scientific and practical method to ad pt where water can be spread over the sur face. It IS in accordance with the splrit of the age. Formerly commerce de, pended silely on adventitlous winds and waves to interchange the products or the distant portions of the earth. Then the. commercial world lived slowly, made money slowly and was dull and drowsy as inc age. But a change came. Steam was introduced, and now the channels of commerce run full, and more certainly and very rapidly to the four corners of the earth.
 In ali those sections of country where irrigation is not depended upon, crops are uncertain. Total and partial failures are the rule. It isiDs too little. IL farming by irrigation the crop of the dil gent, careful farmer IS as sure and uniform as are the trips oi the ocean steamer or rounds Of the overland train. Scientific farming is farming by irrigation. It Is the trut method. It IS the one method by which the soil longest retains It's llte without the addition of stimulants 10 the shape of manures and other lie giving expedieuts. Irrigation adis lt' uf itself and there Is httle call for artI1 cial devices to keep up the land. Peo- pie unaccustomed to this method oi farming imagine 1t questionable as to results. True, It takes a little more money to start, but once started the re turns are more certain and greater than by the methods prscticed m ralhy countries. These points are beginning 10 be seen by practical and wide-awake agrIculturists and hOrticulturists every where and those regions of Arizona and elsewhere adapted to the method bS irrl gdtion are rapidly being ap prupriated. The CITIZEN has intimated our southern California friends may ex peot an end Co their supplying Arr zoua with fruit and grain at an early day.
Arizona weekly citizen., 1883-11-24


 TIE CITIZEN regrets that there exists nong a very few newspapers of south ern Arizona disposition to belittle th ir neighbors and in an underhsnded way, say the meanest things their imaglna- dJn can conjure up, which can do these journals no good, and will certainly do their adverssries-If they must regard them as such-uo harm. It IS the poor est policy in the world to try to build u2 by tearing others down. The in stances in life, where individuals built themselves up by trying to destroy the regulations of others, are extremely rare, and the instances where a news paper of one town maligned the peop'e of an other for the purpose of building up their own, are equally rare. If a town or section Jf the country has no ID srits, the people will find it out soon enough, and it will speedily find its vel. But if 1t has resources, and those resources are developed and it grows and prospers, il cannot Iniure other sections of the country fifty or seventy miles away. The CITIZEN is al- ways glad to hear of the success of a neighboring town, always ready to say a good word for any and all sections of the Territory. It is always better to say q good word for neIghbor, than a bad one. The CITIZEN was surprised to find
 D article in Tombstone paper of the l2d inst, attacking what it is pleased to
 ern "the petty meanness of Tue ,onisns," etc. The CITIZEN is at loss 10
 understand why this attack was made, tnd If the journal which made it will carefully read it over, it seems to us that i cannot help but see the injustice of the attack, and regret its publication.
