The governor of Arizona I'm his annual

gins with reference 10 the late disastrous
Apache outbreak. The progress of the
territory, he says, has, nevertheless, been
the source of qualification. Tho estimated

The population OF the territory Is

twenty varieties, Riverside, California, entered
fify-one Magruder scored 1850 points on
twenty varieties and Riverside scored l 800 on
itty-One varieties You will see that Florida
more than doubled California, yet California got
the premium OF gold medal and 800. So it was
with several other entries. The California fruit
was picked, rubbed and generally nursed; but
when it came to the best varieties Florida was
ahead. Florida got thirty-iwO premiums for
best varieties. In the grand sweepstake race,
where she could show her grand exhibit under
the auspices of the Florida Fruit Growers Asso-
citation, which premium was open to any society,
$3.50 was taken by Florida, and the universal
expression given by every one was that Florida

1t was novel thing for the managers of the

never seen orange tree until they came to

The New York Postmaster.

President Cleveland knows all about
Mr.. Pearson who he reapponted post
master of New York. He is in his forty
third year and twenty-five years Of his
life have been spent in that postofice. He
is native of the city, was educated in
the public schools, and began work in the
office in 1860 as a stamper, and rose
through seven intervening positions to
that of postmaster, in 1877, prior to
which he had for eight years been assist
ant postmaster. His opportunities for
knowing it thoroughly have been excep-
tional, and he has been constantly on
the alert to improve the service The
importance of his position may be judged
from the fact that his office employed
regularly during 1884, 1880 persons,
whose aggregated pay for the year was
$l,5ll, OPS, the total receipts of the Office
during the same time being 1890
73s49.
BY Mr.. Pearson's appointment the
President paid the debt owed by the
Democracy to the Independent Repub-
licans Of New York, and at the same
time secured to the most important com
munity in the country the service of the
man best qualified in his line of official
duty. The Washington Post says:
Although Mr.. Pearson, the New York post
master, is classified as an original Blaine Re
publican, nothing is palmer than the fact that
he has not conducted his Office on original
Blaine principles. The result is a great success,
as nobody disputes.
1t is fresh in the public recollection how Mr..
Pearson abstained from all participation in the
late Presidential campaign, and how bitterly he
was complained of by Mr. Blaine's managers.
not only for refusing 10 close the Office on
election day, but for declining to make il in any
way tender TO the Republican machine lie
contributed nothing to the funds of the State
Committee, and il he gave anything to the
National Committee il has never been made
public.
1t was then as much subject of remark that
Mr.. Pearson was not Republican and never
had been one as 1t is now among Democrats
who find fault with his appointment that he has
never been anything but Blaine man. Yet
all the facts 90 to show that as postmaster Mr..
Pearson was neither the one nor the other, but
that no man in official position has ever exem-
pliied so completely and well reform to which
the Democratic party was committed and by
virtue of which commitial the victory of the
party in New York was assured.
In recognizing all these things and the princi-
Piles they embOdy and the obligations they
involve Mr. Cleveland. though doing an unusual
act and one unpalatable to partisans, has SIM
ply done an act Of justice that the Democratic
much more than the Republican party will
sooner or later and with unanimity approve.
