Necessity For a Fruit Growers Organiz
 ation.

Mi. T. w. Femberton of Chicago, who has been sojourning in the valley during the last two weeks, took his de- parture on the afternoon train, for the Windy City" This gentleman has been for the past twenty years in the fruit buying business at Chicago, and came to this valley at the instance of his friend o. L. Gibbs, in order to in form himself or the resources and ca pacity of this future great fruit pro- ducing section.
 In an interview to-day, Mir. Pember- ton expressed the liveliest faith that this valley would soon take its stand along side of California in the eastern fruit markets-"but," said he, "your fruit growers are laboring under the thousand and one disadvantages that always beset the beginner in a new en- terprise. They want information on many points, such as what to plant that Is, what vareities best stand ship ping; how and when to gather to tie greatest advantage, and where to mar ket. These and hundreds of other points of value are all known i'll the older fruit shipping districts, and are the result of years of study and exper- iment, at a cost of many thousands ot dollars. The wealthier orchardists those who have a hundred or more acres of fruit, can afford to avail them selves of the travel and study neces sary to acquire the needed experience but the small grower cannot afford this, nor can Ire afford to waste time and money in experiments. The true way is to organize By combining they could, at triAing expense tt each member, keep a secretary con stantly employed in correspondence and attending to the books of record which should be kept on each fruit and they could also send an agent tc study and note the most successful methods adopted by fruit growers anc shippers in California. Sooner O later they will have to form such al organization, and the sooner the bet ter."-Phenix Herald

COPPER BASIN COPPER Co,
 By J. J. WILLIAMS, Supt.
Buffalo Bill to Visit Arizona.

Buffalo Bill, after the conclusion of his season at Erastana, proposes to conduct a party of British noblemen and men in political life, together with several distinguished Americans, on pleasure excursion across the plains. The party will start from his ranch at North Platte Neb., and travel in wagons and on saddle horses camping out at night. Since Major North's death Col. Cody has been elected the white chief of the Pawnees, and to this tribe he will first pay visit. Thence he will take his party into New Mexico and Arizona, stopping at all military posts and forts en route. He will come out through Lower California The start will be made early in the fal and the trip will consume several weeks Col. Tom Ochiltree will probably be O the party.-N. Y. Sun.

Iris a matter of pride to every Am erican citizen that the government of the United States is greater than any political party it contains, and it matters little which party is called upon to execute the laws, the nation will neither stand still or retrograde. Temporary misfortunes may result from the exercise of an injudicious policy, but the wonderful powers of recuperation possessed by our country will speedily overcome them. Though the doors of our custom houses be opened to the free entry of the pro ducts of the whole world and our man. ufacturing industries be unable to com pete with foreign productions, some compensating benefits will be realized and our country will not become ab- solutely bankrupt. The people are strong and their united voice can make and unmake administrative policy. Our constitution is an impenetrable bar toa dangerous usurpation of power and the political party that seeks to exceed the limit of official discretion cannot long survive. One would i'm agine from the magnitude of tlIe cam paign tempests that, whichever way a1 .la tI try is doomed to destruction and the cyclone will sweep it into a mel strom of chaos, but the buoyant shiI of state rides on serenely and securely and the people continue their unre. stricted pursuit of happiness and pros perity. The great war of the rebellion has demonstrated the strength and re cuperatlve power of the republic, and the momentum it has gained during the past quarter of a century cannot be checked by any human agency The vital questions forming the prin ciples of the two opposing politica parties are but different views of reach ing an identical result-the welfare O the people. Both are equally loyal tC its institutions, but they seek to arrive at the best results by different process es. They are like the strong shroud, upon either side of the ships tall mast and the more equal their strength tho irmer it stands. The only danger and we might also add the disgrace lies in the dishonesty, misrepresenta tion, buncome and vituperation of tn, campaign orators and writers in theii mad efforts to influence the votes O the weak minded and indifferent citi zens. When these evils are eliminat ed from politics the beauties of ou system of government will stand ou grandly conspicuous as the wonder O the whole world.

Working Together.

As had been arranged at the com mittee meeting at Tempe on fast Tues day quite a number of the citizens from both sides of the valley met last evening at the Immigration office for the purpose of taking further steps for the exhibition of the products of this valley at Cincinnati and Columbus, St. Louis, Chicago, Kansas City and other eastern points during this summer and fall. The exhibit will go to Co lumbus, Ohio, first, on the occasion of the encampment of the G. A. R., and thence to other points.
 The meeting organized last evening by calling of Prof. Farmer, of Tempe, to the chair and making MT. Thomas Parish of PhenIx, secretary. A lengthy discussion then ensued as to the man. ner of organization, raising an exhibit and the means to maintain 1t. It was finally agreed that the elective officers should be President, Vice President, Secretary, and an executive committee of ten persons, five from each side oi the river. It was also agreed to meet again on next Tuesday in Tempe, fo1 the purpose ofcompleting the organiz- ation by the election of officers and the appointment of the executive commit tee, when an active canvass of the valley will at once be inaugurated fol material for our exhibit and for mon ey with which to defray the expenses of maintaining an exhibition.
 The whole scheme was very thorough ly discussed last evening, and among other good things decided upon, it wal determined that no personal advertise Inents of property should be admitted into the printed matter.
 The move is one that should hav' been put on foot long ago. No aer' of land can be sold in the valley with out its benefits, if there be any, being fel as much on one side of the river as ol the other. We forget that every foo of arabic land in this valley, no matte where it lies, will be in demand within the next year or two, and that we vii not know what to do with our immi grants, and further that all portion of this vast region of country will b equally prosperous and productive No part of the valley can be injure without injury 10 all of it, and whe1 parties strive to excite petty jcalousle between different portions of it ther can be but one end ill view, merel personal gain certainly not the goo of the people.-Phenix Herald.

Con struet Reservoirs.

The method of saving water in reser- voirs for the purpose of irrigation and for household use is one that even tually will come into use in Arizona on an extensive scale. In parts Of Africa where the rainfall is extremely light, splendid crops are raised by the use of water caught during the rainy season in immense reservoirs. The fact that during the rainy season in Arizona, particularly in Pima and Cochise, great quantity of water pours down the mountain sides, causing freshets, injuring farms by washing the soil away and wasting itself in the sea, is one that set the people to think ing. If only small part of this was saved in reservoirs the farmers in the dryest uplands could have a plentiful supply the year round. Of course the construction of reservoirs of adequate size would require capital This might be raised by the formation of com panies among those who might be benefited by the water. No invest ment would yield more certain and a few a more speedy return. Those sup piled with water in this way could laugh at the clements. The "dry sea son" would no longer be an object oi apprehension. The irrigation ques- tion would be largely settled. Moth ing is more certain than that great part of the desert lands of New Mex ico and Arizona will in time be made productive by such means, and will in time be inhabited by populous farming | communities.-Gaze

TIE county of Pinal is in the best
 financial condition of any political division of the Territory. It has no bonded indebtedness and only small amount of unpaid warrants are out standing, which will all be paid from the tax levy of the present year. It's rate of taxation is the lowest in the Ter ritory and all its affairs are managed with fidelity and economy. It is one of the most prosperous counties and its future is the most promising Its mines are proving immensely rich and large its cattle interests are growing more profitable and its area of agricul- tural lands is being largely augmented through the construction of the several new irrigating canals. The next few years will add largely to the taxable property while the public expenses will not increase in a corresponding ratio. Surely these are Inducements to prudent business men to settle here.

THE people of the Salt river valley

THE people of the Salt river valley including those of Tempe, have or ganized to work harmoniously for the general development of that portion of Arizona, and there can be no doubt of the success that will attend their la- bors. Individual effort, however de- termined and active, can accomplish but little community good, and especi- ally is this true where dozens of ieal- ous and envious drOnes stand with ob- stacles ready to throw in the path of all progress. But the concerted action of an organized body of jealous work CTS, backed by the best sentiment of the country, is too formidable an en- emy for the non-prOgressivc element 10 attack in their covert, sneaking way, and it carries the evidences of it's res pectability and integrity stamped plainly upon its escutcheon which their sneers and jibes and puny efforts can  not deface. We realize the necessity of similar organization i'll this val Icy, whose offices will be the collation. of reliable information of the actual and possible productions of the val ley and all other knowledge desired by intending immigrants, and its dissem- nation amongst the people of the east to receive and entertain visitors in search of lands and business opportun- ities and to afford strangers such aid and assistance necessary to encourage them in the acquisition of property and to prevent all attempts to mislead them. The value of the services of such an organization, properly con ducted, can scarcely be estimated, for it would result in general good that will benefit everybody. The people oi the Salt river valley are enterprisine and we trust that little of the leaven that moves them may be introduced into this community, where nature has done so much towards making it 6 paradise and has left so very little fol mankind to do to perfect it.
