Will Our Merchants Secure the
Trade?

One of the popular fallacies of the past
was tnat Arizona was an arid and barren
waste. This fallacy is being rapidly dis
PEELED, and in short time that Territory
will rank as one Of the most productive
in the Union. This remark will not hold
true of all the land in the Territory, but
it will be found perfectly correct as to a
large area thereof. Great developments
are now going forward in the Salt River
Valley and these are being supplemented
by others along the Gila River and again
in several places on the banks of the
Colorado. In the Salt River valley a canal
has been constructed at a cost of$1 900 600.
This will bring under cultivation an inn
mense extent of very productive soil.
Fruit ripens in that section several weeks
earlier than anywhere else in the Amer.
ican Union. For raisin culture this val
ley is particularly suited, for the reason
that there is the least possible humidity
in the atmosphere at that point, and the
fruit cures with rich bloom on it, and
the flavor is delicious. At the moment
there is an earnest movement on foot to
build railroad from Holbrook, on the
line of the Atlantic and Pacific road. to
Yuma on the Southern Pacific line.
Such road would run in bee line and
pass directly through the center of the
Salt River valley.
The developments now going on in the
region indicated, as we'll as mining and
other enterprises in many portions of
Arizona, make demand for a great deal
of machinery and agricultural imple-
ments as we'll as for groceries and all
lines of merchandise. At present
these supplies come in the main
from San Francisco. The Arizona
merchant passes through this city and
goes five hundred miles beyond us for
goods. His purchases are hauled that
distance further than they would be if
made here. Little of the goods used in

The Tunnel.

Work on the tunnel on the Canadian
side is progressing favorably. The ex-
cavation of the shaft and the building
of the brick retaining walls are pro-
ceeding without a hitch and the plan
adopted is considered a success. The
test holes so far bored in the river bed
along the line of the tunnel bear out the
original tests as to the nature of the
soil and the absence of unfavorable
formations. Everything is in readi-
ness for commencing active operations
on the Michigan side. The services of
a superintendent have been secured in
the person of a Mr.. Hooking. who has
had considerable experience in the con-
struction of tunnels in Nebraska, and
the work will soon be in vigorous
operation on this side Port Huron

A Richmond FavOrite Elevated to
Higher station.

A telegram from Natchez, Miss. states
that Right Rev. +. Janssens received on
Friday morning the pontihcal brief APP
pointing him Archbishop of New Or
leans.
Archbishop Janssens was so long a
resident of this city was so well known
and 30 dearly loved here, Richmond feels
q special glow of pride in his elevation to
this high Office.
He has the piety, the learning. and
the training and experience to make him
one of the most useful and honored Of
the Church's servants.
Archbishop Janssens was born October
II, 1S43, at Tilberg, Holland, and at the
age Of thirteen began the studies at the
seminary of the diocese called Bois-le-
Due He remained there ten years,
passing through the departments OF the
seminary known as the SDIGU and the
grcat He then in 1866 entered the
American college at Lauvain, Belgium,
with the view when ordained OF deyoting
his life TO pastoral duty in the United
States After two years study at this
college he was ordained priest on the
Dist day of December, 1857, and
came to Richmond in September.
1868, where he remained until
1881, each year becoming more and
more beloved by the community.
He was administrator OF the diocese
from 1877 to 1878, and was senior priest
under the three successive adminstra-
tions OF Bishops McGill. Gibbons, and
Keane. by the last-named he WAS APP
pointed Vicsr-General Of the diocese.
His usefulness mere cannot be overesti-
mated, and to his energies and ability
is due 10 no small degree the tourishing
condition OF this See.
His intellectual attainments and many
accomplishment are in marked contrast
with his simple and unaffected manners.
In May, 1881, in Richmond, he was
ordained Bishop of NatcheZ, since which
time his home has been in that portion
of the South, but as opportunity offered
he has from time to time visited Rich
mond, always receiving warm welcomes
