The Flood in san Diego County.

The San Diego County Star has the
following account Of the food at Corral
de Luz: "The residence of Mr.. Judson
at that place was completely carried
away by the freshet in the stream which
runs through that valley. Nothing at
all was saved except two dresses, as the
occupants of the house did not suppose
the current would be strong enough to
take away the building, as it was good
sized one. Not even solid piece Of
lumber can now be found whole, as il
was completely ground to pieces en- its
course through its rocky passage. The
furniture. etc., mentioned in our last
issue, lying on the Santa Margarita bot.
tom is now supposed to be that of Mr..
Judson.
Judge Foss, of this place, who has
recently been to De Luz, reports that he
also lost about 200 stands of bees, and
that Mr.. 0rvis' young orchard and
vineyard was carried away. Judge Foss
says that the amount of damage done by
water to timber and land washing cannot
be comprehended unless visit is paid to
the locality"

Mrs. DR.. sawtelle's Lecture.

Mrs. DR.. Sawtelle, Dean of the Wo-
mans Medical College, San Francisco,
lectured yesterday afternoon at the Y.
NJ. c. A. Hall. to ladies on "Why Phys
iology should be taught in the Schools. !"
In eloquent and affecting language
she portrayed the misery, suffering and
so-called misfortune by deaths in the
United States of hundreds of thousands
of infants-of persons sent to hospitals,
insane and other asylums, and the count
less number at large Of weak or unsound
mind, defonned or Informed bodies-all
arising from the cuipable ignorance of
mothers, wives and nurses.
She referred to the urgent need in this
city for the ladies, as in other cities. to
unite their energies in some organized
effort to render tie hospital and other
society and humanitarian work effective
as it ought to be. and cannot be without
woman's sympathy and cooperation.
1t is a small compliment to say that
womanly hearts and tears were moved
by her touching appeals.
By unanimous vote she was requested
to take up the same subjects on
Wednesday evening next. before an au-
dience of both ladies and gentlemen, in
the same hall.

The Secret OF the Success OF One of
our Business Houses.

People like to trade with a prosper
Gus house," is very true saying. We
have occasion to visit many business
houses in the city, and in none do we
find the crowd and jam so great as in
the Peoples Store. Rainy days seem to
have no effect on it's trade, for every
stool has an occupant and every clerk q
customer. Their system Of one price
and no credit seems to suit our citizens.
for no doubt goods can be sold at less
price than whore credit is given. The
Peoples Store deserves praise for its
achievement. and has earned its well

 Everybody ln the entire county knows that she IS jusf getting out Of one of the most fearful conditions ofianarehy O and lawlessness that ever cursed any country or county, and the dcbt incurred by that lawlessncss is being paid.
 Again we say the people of county feel the rate of taxation, and that is the criterion by which we must judge of county's govern ment Maricopa county would vote a tax upon herself to,day of ten millions of dollars if sse could do so at the rate of ten cents upon the hundred dollars and by that act be relieved of the paltry tax of $34,000, but which causes every man who holds property of any kind to pay S3- 35 on every hundred dollars he is assessed. In the first case the individual taxpayers would not feel he burden Of tax at all, but we all Snow how much we feel the $3.35 hat is forced from the property to pay exorbitant fees and salaries to county officials.

THERE is much and earnest di si
 cussion now taking place among the
 parties of all political complexlons
 in the county, concerning the status
 of our county affairs and the souice
 of our present onerous rate of taxa>
 tion. Our county is largely agri~
 cultural Il contains none of those
 elements which lead to necessarily
 great public expenditure Material
 of all kind Can be had cheaper here
 ln Maricopa county than ic any other county in Arizona Our pops ul ition is less turbulent. Our roads are tuilt at comparatively nomi> nal expense Our county govern ment ought 10 be admin tered with less expense than in any other coun- in the Territory. Our rate of tax ation ought to be lower than in any other ounty in the Territory. These circumstances have attracted the general attention of the public in this county, and the question goes up from the citizens of all parties not merely from Republicans "Why do we pay the highest, or nearly the highest, rates Of taxation | in the Territory?" The demand for lower rates has become imperative, or if the people are to stand the present rate, they want to see some- thing for their money. If he cOun- " was assisting some enterprise that would add to the value of properly all over the county, the public could afford to wait year or two for relief, but when we get nothing at all but 'govcrnment" for laxcs that ought to build us rail- -oed and bridge over rivers, tue peo- ole begin think it time to look after herr personal interest.
