Arizona weekly enterprise., 1888-12-22

THE United States has nine terri tories with an aggregate population of 1,620,512, and total vote of 350,000 that is denied participation in the election of president. Six of the ter ritories have more than one hundred thousand inhabitants each and are fully entitled to the privileges of state hood, while two others-Arizona and Wyoming-very nearly reach the re- quisite numerical requirements for admission. It would seem eminently proper that Congress should make pro vision for the admission of all the Territories with the exception of Alas ka, upon the simple ground of justice to the people now practically disiran- chised While we admit that the general sentiment in Arizona is not in favor of the responsibility of state hood being assumed at the present time, yet all will agree that it is better to become state at the first possible opportunity that to be denied that right for partisan reasons for years af- ter it has reached the proper con dition, like Dakota. Within the next few years this Territory will increase in population at a ratio here tofore unparalled in it's history and at the next presidential election it will possess more than double it's present population. The certainty of this rapid increase is sufficient to justify the assumption of the duties of state hood even at the present time, and i is to be hoped that Congress will en able it to enter the union without un. necessary delay or trouble.

Without meaning in any way to dis
parage scientific agriculture, says the
Germantown Telegraph, or the advantages
of capital and machinery, the editor feels
conn PEELED 70 say in all candor that the
most successful farming is that which
springs from sheer necessity. This is not
peculiar to farming, but is found to apply
equally to manufactures and to most other
lines Of business. Some of the greatest
and most successful industrial concerns in
America originated in the very humblest
beginnings, made by the common mechan-
les working on their own account on q
small scale, and compelled by necessity to
work hard and practice the most rigid
economy. In like manner the prosperity
of Western agriculture chiefly results in
the personal labor Of small farmers and
their families upon their own land, accom-
panied by strict economy and close atten-
ton to the marketing of their crops, and
the avoidance of debts. And that's
what's the matter with much Of the farm
ing in the lower South-the man can
make out to live without pushing things,
so he neither pushes nor prospers.

appointed. The Minister of Commerce
and Manufactures acts as president of
this council and also as Commissioner
General of the exhibition. The grand
council is divided into twenty-five advise
ry committees, who have charge of the
different departments and the manage
ment of the exposition.
The buildings for the exposition are
now nearly completed. They occupy the
Champ-de-Mars and the Trocadero Pal
ace and park on the banks Of the Seine.
In the park at the entrance to the expo
sition on the Champ de- Mars the wonder
full Eiffel Tower is now in course of cree
ton. 1t is to be entirely of iron and
l 900 feet in height It's object is to show
the triumph of modern engineering skill.
1t will be furnished with an elevator of
American manufacture. On the right of
the tower is the Palace of Liberal Arts,
and on the left the fine Palace Of Fine
Arts. Large gardens occupy the centre
of the square, and at the back is the
main building, or the gallery of machines
az it is called. The Espanadc OF Invalides
is reserved for the products of the French
colonies The buildings are magnificent
structures of glass aud iron, lighted 10y
electricity and fitted with every modern
convenience.
THE FAIRS MAGNITUDE.
1t is expected that the total number of
exhibitors from all countries will reach
10000; it is estimated that 10000 900
persons will enter the grounds and build
ings. Some idea Of the magnitude of the
exhibition may be gained from the fact
that the total area OF buildings and el-
closed grounds which is t. be lighted by
electricity, is s: 100000 square feet. The
space allotted to the United States is
about $4,000 square feet. An exhibit
from this country fully equal to that of
1878 is expected, aud it is hoped that it
will be muchlarger There are numer-
Gus lines of industry that need new mar
kets for their goods, and this exhibition
will afford them an opportunity for for
elgn display.
A II of the European countries. except
Germany, take an interest in the exposi-
ton, and will make displays. The South
American republics and Mexico will also
take particularly active part, as well as
Japan.

Quested to invite the people to assist in
the proper representation OF the products
of American industry and Of the natural
resources OF the country. The President
was directed to appoint Commissioners

rected to appoint nine scientific experts
as assistants 80 the commission, each 10
be assigned to one Of the nine groups into
which the exhibits will be divided. Pro-
vision was made for the salaries of the
commissioners and the necessary assist

prlated to be used under the direction of
the Secretary Of State TO defray all ex-
penses. The action Of Congress. was APP

WASHINGTON.
A Pot Pourri Of Fresh News Items
from the National Capital,

WASHINGTON, July ., 1855
Cleveland and Thurman are now re-
garded by all Democrats and not a
few Republicans as sure winners.
The Republican Convention by its
action in nominating Benjamin Har-
rison and Levi P. Morton virtually
removed all the elements of uncer-
tainty from the campaign. The
general sentiment of the Democrats
in Congress is that the Republicans
could not have put up a weaker
ticket if they had tried. Harrison
has been defeated time after time in
his own State and Morton is only an
old "money bags" Both of them
are about as far removed from the
people as it is possible for them to
be.
Henry George was in this city on
Saturday last. He predicts that
Cleveland will be reelected, and that
he will carry California and Michi-
gan.
There were never so many Demo-
cratic clubs in eXistance in this city
as at present, and yet hardly a
night passes that a new one is not
organized.
Last week was a very important
one politically. First, the Repub-
licans nominated their ticket to be
defeated; next, Mr.. Cleveland was
officially notified of his re-nomina-
ton, also Judge Thurman; the Ma
tional Democratic committee organ
lied for the campaign by re-electing

DRIED FRUIT.

Much enquiry is being made,
especially by the country merchants
about the prices of dried fruits. We
are sorry we cannot give them salts
factory answers. The fruit crop,
especially apples, is very large, and
much of it will necessarily go to
waste unless dried. The quantity
dried will govern the price. If little
dried the price will be higher, and
vice versa. So at this early date it is
impossible for any man to quote or
name the real value of dried fruits.
The trees are very full of fruit, and
unless relieved of some of their
abundance by picking off, the fruit
will generally be small and inferior,
and hence of less value for all
purposes. All we can say at present
to fruit driers and buyers, is to
exercise their own judgments. Don't
sell too low nor buy too high. We
think it would be well to take care
of all the fruit, and let the owner
handle in such way as to realize
the greatest profit. The black
berry crop is about as usual
The crops Of other fruits being large
may have a tendency to depreci
ate the price of blackberries. The
California fruits, green and dry, fol
the last few years have grown ir
great favor with the Western anG
Eastern markets, and they being 81
far superior to ours, the demand fol-
Tennessee dried fruits, being gener
ally of poor quality, has greatly de
preciated both in demand and value
Until our people take more care il
handling and preparing their fruits
for market they may expect lower
prices.

AWAY back somewhere in the leg
endary lore of newspaperdom there
is pathetic story of an editor who,
worried with the Sundry
small complaints of his readers, re-
solved to get out at least one issue
that should contain nothing against
which single reader could urge any
objection whatever. He invited all
of his readers to express themselves
as to what they disliked in a newspa-
per, and assured them that he would
eliminate such matter from his col
umns,andissue one paper with which
they should all be pleased. One sub
scriber objected to political articles,
and so they were left out; another
objected to poetry, and it was eXclud-
ed; another objected to all criticisms
of anything or anybody, and every
thing of this nature was consigned to
the waste basket. An old farmer
from out in the hills couldn't see any
sense in all of those little personal
items about clown folks" and the
belle of the village thought
all of those articles about
potatoes, pumpkins and turnip
greens were perfectly awful" Thus
the work went on through the week,
the editor religiously eXpunging
every class of matter with which amy
reader found fault. At last the day
of publication came, and a great
