A SAD DEATH.-In Philadelphia re. gently at a coroner'S inquest oyer the body of child, the jury returned yer dict that death was caused by the ad- ministration of a patent cough syrup, con taining morphia. Dr. Sam1. K. Cox of Was shiugton, states that not one cough medicine in ten is free from this obieo. tion. After careful analyses and practi. cal tests he endorses Red Sta: Cough Cure as being purely vegetable, absolute. ly free from opiates. poisons and narcot. ics. He regards it as a most happy and valuable discovery.

Project for an Lrrigating Canal

The following data is taken from Geo W. Norton's report made March 4, 1885 to Z. L. Tidball, who proposes to con- struct a canal from the point of Mohawk Mountains on the south side of the Gila river, to Antelope hill:
 The canal will be 10 feet wide on the bottom and on a grade of one and one half feet per mile, and fifteen miles in length. The total cost of the canal will be S15,6O0.
 The valley that the canal will cover contains more than 5O0U acres of irriga- ble land and is subject to the pre-em ption homestead, timber culture and desert land claims. The soil consists of deep alluvial deposit. This land will be worth, after the completion of the canal, S25 per acre and will be settled at once upon ar assurance of the construction of an irri- gating canal. The Southern Pacific rail. road is at no point more than four miles away, which insures ready market for all products iD the various towns in Ari- zona. So,by the expenditure of $15,6OO, land is reclaimed that will, at once, be worth S125OOO and a canal that the revenue from the sale Of water will bring 30 per cent, per annum interest on the investment.

Another instance of "love's labor lost" is illustrated by the Prescott Miner in the observation that lit seems too bad that our people had to be cinched on the capital question. Some of our mem bers tell US that there was no need of spend ing cash. dry goods and groceries to keep It from being placed on wheels and rolled away"
 Our contemporary is correct. At no time from the hour of the organization of the Legislature till its adjournment, was there any danger ot the Capital be- ing removed from Prescott, by Legisla. tive enactment

The Los Angeles Herald gives the fol- lowing newspaper men, who were mem- bers of the Thirteen tn Legislative Assem- ply, a send-otf in the annexed paragraph:
 It seems that the old newspaper war horses Sam Purdy, J. W. Darlington, G.. w. Brown and T. F. Weedin met the ex- pectations of the people, without distinc- ton of party, which is very compliment tary to the newspaper profession. There were other newspaper men in that Leg islature whose names do not occur at the moment, but all appear to have been sat- isfactory to the people of that Territory. It m fight be well If the people of Arizona wodld send more newspaper men to thelr Legislature.

The Los Angeles Herald in late issue has the following item, which is well worth reading: When Hon.

It is reported that number of gentle men of San Francisco, have lately formed themselves into joint-stock company for the purpose of taking up lands near Yuma and establishing colony to be composed principally of Italians. The colony, when thoroughly organized, will turn their attention to the raising of fruits of all kinds, including lemons and oranges. Their principal business, how ever, will be the cultivation of grapes for the manufacture of wine. The movers in the enterprise are gentlemen of experi- ence, and say that large proportion of the lands of Yuma county are particular ly adapted for grapes, and claim that grapes raised here will produce better wine than that of the most favored spots of California-Napa and Sonoma not r. cepted.

The Arizona Citizen" says: Every issue of the Yuma papers contains mo- tices Of one or more births or marriages, but very seldom a death. People don't die therein fact they have too much pride in their town to be caught dead within its limits. Seriously, there is scarcely healthier locality than Yuma in the United States" Yes, "seriously, there is scarcely healthier locality than Yuma in the United States," and a good proof of this fact is that funerals here are few and far between. Mostly the deaths that occur in Yuma are among those who come here with chronic diseases in search of health, that have become incurable, There is no better, or finer climate in the world, than in Yuma from the first of September till the last of June. The win. ter here is scarcely felt, and tomato vines and rose bushes grow and bloom the year around.

Among one of the good things that Hon. c. c, Stephens did, when repre-
 senting the Southern District of Arizona in the recent Legislative Assembly, was the introducing of the Polygamy bill which became law. It Is claimed that as polygamists are disfranchised and that as they usually vote the Democratic ticket, the law will have the tendency to make this Territory Republican in poll tics. If this is the case, no one will doubt that it is salutary effect. The Republican party is the moral party of the land, and if it will improve the nor als of the Territory by their advent into power, we say Amen, and the people will have good reason to thank the Hon. c. c. Stephens for this wholesome law and the blow that he has struck tue scourge that has blackened the pages of American history every since it gained a footing in the United States. A sImi- lar law should be passed by every State and Territory in the Union, and thus, in a measure, cripple Mormonism and con- pei 1t to seek other lands more congenial to the tenets and rites of their church.

Hon. w. A. Howard, member of the Council, and Hon. W. F. Frame, of the House, were given grand recep ton on their return home to Tombstone, by their constituents and friends. This compli. ment was well deserved as these gentle men were true and honest representa- tiYes. It must be pleasant to have suc b recognition from the people, for it in- dicates that the services of their repre- sentatives while attending the Legislative Assembly, were fully appreciated and approved.
