 prosperity and success.
 All wrangling between the two
 places is worse than useless; as tending
 to depress business enterprises and
 wealth producing industries, fearful
 shrinkage of values and create distrust
 in the minds of new corners for in
 vestment, pleasure, profit or pelma
 nent settlement; thus frightening away
 capital and people, as many commun
 i,ies in the Territory have done aud are now suffering.materlally therefore,
 that would otherwise remain import
 ant factors in society, new enter
 prises, prosperous and wealth produc
 ing industries.
 We cannot afford to adopt such a suicidal policy; much less can Pres colt afford it, as she has far more in. terests than we to look after, and pro. tect, involving the entire interests of the Territory, depending upon and essentially needing its support to en- sure success. Hence, how very i'm portant for. her to deal fairly and lib orally to secure confidence and coop. eratlon, tc court community of feel. ings with outside interests, rather than stimulate divisions by inaugurating a local, selfish policy.
 She cannot by any course she sees fit to adopt, avoid the inevitable in the near future, nature has so mann. festly portrayed and now being rap idly utilized by artificial processes; though liberal policy with manifest justice to this part of the county by her offices and union of the two places by rail may gently delay the "inevit- able' and when transpiring, as il must and will, it may be harmonious and each continue to promote the others best interests, prosperity and welfare.
 It is futile to attempt refuting act. ual existing facts or assume blindness to natures prominent characteristics and provisions. While man locates and builds villages, higher power the country, that man in very large measure must be suhservient to. else partial or total failure ensues, or the wrongful investment of fear iul amount of capital to turn nature in other than her provisional channels.
 A county over two hundred miles square with county seat substantially in one corner. inaccessible save by wagon roads, while not only far too large for economical and just admin lstrations of law 10 all parts; works ex, irene hardship to communities forced 10 travel on bad roads from one to two hundred miles for any county business. Even Flagstaff is far more central and accessible to the entire county than Prescott.
 We are natural center for very large scope ofcountry whose business, trade and every other element of pros, perlty, Prescott can never expect dollar of as how situated, and with the continued pursuance in the future of her past and present policy; though direct rail communication with Us would materially aid her in that di reCtion. Such railroad would stimu late useful activities in both places; create many new wealth producing industries, encourage wholesome competition in business, and all tend, ancies to mutual prosperity.
 These few suggestions are closed with word of caution. It should be the active feeling and purpose of every and community to further every material interest throughout the Territory, as the prosperity of one af, lords more or less corresponding pros perity to the whole, ID the increase Of taxable property and divers other ways. Merely local efforts, llliberal and selfish policies have been master full activities to retard progress, drive away capital and enterprlsing people; causing industries to languish and wealth productions to cease, is manifest all over the Territory. From six years close observation; that this part thereof, with all the natural ad- for high prosperity may not indulge in such suicidal schemes, $ the earnest desire of OUls.
