Henry George, in an interview at Washington, recently, stated that the Alti-POverty Society would not likely put a Presidential candidate in the field, and intimated further that he would give his support to Cleveland Tn the coming election, because of his free-trade principles, as expressed in his recent message, with which he (George) fully coincided. While the Anti-Poverty people are not altogeth- CT harmonious on the tariff question, yet George has a sufficient following m the Society to make him an impor- tant factor in New York State politics, where the two great parties are so evenly matched, and doubtless he and his followers will be amply rewarded for their support of Cleveland, and be able to stand of poverty for some time to come.

FLORENCE AND ITS CANAL ENTERPRISE
 A CORRESPONDENTS VIEWS.

Florence Is about to awaken from its present dull and dreamy state to shine forth as one of the garden spots of this Territory. The Gila valley has long been conceded as having the most productive land in the Territo- ry, and all that 1t needed was water, which will now be supplied by the FIorence Canal Company. This Com pany wasl reorganlzed in December last, aH3R the 1st of the present monty they auidated all the indebt- -a5aees inCurAd bv the ae--..s.-5- Mr. x, A-2fandall, OfSan Bernardo no, the.sseretary and treasurer, will come t Florence about the 18th inst. to take entire management of the eompaly's affairs, and under his per sonal supervision the canal will be built to Casa Grande. The company does rot intend to let any contracts, but has already sent East for new ditcher, and upon its arrival, work will be resumed on the canal. It is now hnilt for a distance of 16 miles from lleadgate, near the buttes on the Giia rIyer, to point 4 miles beyond Florence. The cost of constructing thIs distance was SS5,O00. Considera- ble of this work was in cutting thrcugb Sohd rock, but the work of construction from now on will be comparatively easy. Much new land under the canal has already been cleared, and many people are putting in their crops, as the company is now ready to supply water on any land to within one-half mile of its present ter minus. The company has certainly given very liberal rates for water rights-$5 an acre, payable s2 Tn cash and balance on yearly installment plan, with free use of water for the first year, and after that a water rate never to exceed $2 per acre per an- nun, with a possibility of being much less.
 The lands of the Gila valley are well adapted to the growth of olives, as many fine olive trees are to be seen now in Florence, and with this new enterprise Florence bids fair to be a prosperous, and booming town, equal to any in S5utherh California.
