Can one make lISil z
 of land2 The above question is oftS asked. Seeing so many acres divided into five and ten-acre tract brings out the query. What can person do on the same to gain a livelihoodl In Tu- lare, as well as other towns, there Is as rule one half of the population work ing for salaries ranging from $50 to S100 per month, or $500 to $1200 per year, barring no lost time. We are, as rule, slaves to certain extent; toll from one month to another, with no rest If vacation is taken we have to toll the harder to make 1t up. claim that one who owns five acres of good land can, in four years time, be independent, and be making more money than if he were cashier of bank. I have no preference In the different varieties of fruit, nuts and berries. There Is not one variety of good fruit but what is profitable, and a person owning five acres of the same will make more money than one owning larger tracts, simply because the five acre man can tend the same and care for his fruit or berries much better, bringing 2 him larger profits than the 160-acre or chardist. Grapes will pay at four yeaas properly cared for, $250 per acre or $I250 for five acres, and will net the five acre man 5000 per annum. Figs at five years will pay from S250 to $35O per acre, apricots from $20O to S4OO per acre at five years old; peaches and nectarines about the same. Strawberries will pay from $400 to $900 per acre the second Year fTnnzalantinn- and the first naar th- | gfrl rU-CST will oct -fnurth nf a crop. Olives a seven years will pay from $500 to 5000 per acre. Now tc prove facts, I would refer the reader tc a gentleman living about six niles north east of Tulare. He Is the owner of 12( acres. For d number of years he tried grain raising, and kept getting deeper 1T debt every year. He at last planted on, acre of Langsworth's prolific and on, acre of the Jumbo strawberry. The two acres of berries have paid his debts, i'm proved his ranch, planted his orchard and to-day he is independent. Being ( truthful man, l can state his exac words: ',If it had not been for my tw, acres of straw berries, I would be tramp ing to-day" The same brings him S60I per acre every year. His young orchard this year netted S200 per acre, and tn, same man Is to-day an amateur at tn business How many families in Tular if they had the land, could cultivat properly, ard attend to five acres, whil the head of the family was working for
 salary? How huch independence woul there be in the same. Don't stand bac because you can't purchase forty or 16 acres, own ten shares in tine canal, or pa $2500 for an artesian we'll; but buy fv acres, put two small wells upon it, mak two shake windmills, cultivate deeply plant trees or berries. Place yoursel on an equal with your task masters
 Your life will be one of independence It may take from four t6 five years ( ard struggle but you will be recompen: ed in the end. W. J. Langdon in Tr lare Register.

THE California boom IS said to be suffering an unexpected reaction and many persons who invested largely un der the fever of the excitement are ready to dispose of their properties at sacrifice. While we realize that the prevailing prices of real estate have ruled too high flor healthy growth, yet we know that many home-seekers from the east expect to find an impossible de- gree of perfection in the soil, climate and developments of California, and when they find affairs so far below their paradisaical ideal they become disap pointed and discouraged. Some people are hard to satisfy and unreasonably ex- pect to find all the comforts of their old homes already created in the new lands that were but recently reclaimed from their primitive state of desolation. Time is required to build stately edifces and to surround them with attractive verdure, and well paved streets and metropolitan appointments dT6 SOil6 OI bne ldDOTS lSlI to the future Tn frontier towns and cTrTes. Some of these dissatisfied investors have found more tempting advantages and congeniai surroundings in southern Ari- zona, where calmer judgment is exer- cised in the selection of homes. The raw and chilling sea breeze is not~felt here, and no fog or dew Is ever present. The soil produces everything that can be grown in California and of better quail Ity, while the seasons arc more advanced. Our atmosphere is dry, pure and invi- gorating, and lands are cheap. If a person can be satisfied with all the bless ings that nature can provide in this sin ful world, and is willing to wait few years while the embellishments of an ideal home are growing, he will here find everything that hope can desire, with no delirious boom to entrap him into delusive bargains of which he will afterwards repent. We can confidently ask the dissatisfied California tourists tC pay visit to the Gila valley, with the assurance that they will meet with ar agreeable surprise far beyond their ex- pectations.

TIE speedy pursuit and death of one of the murderers of Cyrus Gribbl in Maricopa county not only reflects great credit upon the officers of that county but it will break up one of the worst bands of criminals that ever infested the Territory. It will also have salutary moral effect upon that class of pirates by surrounding their crimes with an ele- ment of danger that is almost certain in averaging results.

THE sultan of Morocco is to undergo trying ordeal that will make him wish he had never been born. Having offended the United States by ignoring certain treaty stipulations, one of the vessels of our Mediterranean squadron proceed ded to Tangiers and demanded immediate re- paration. The sultan metaphorically placed the thumb of his right hand to the front cartilage of his proboscis and gently waved his fingers in derlsion of the United States navy. Captain Me Calla thereupon made a formal report of the matter to his superior officer and thence through tlfe usual channels It found its way to the Secretary of State. Secretary Bayard says the rights of the United States citizens in Morocco must be maintained and therefore the vessel Of war Lancaster has been ordered to re inforce the Enterprise and, to quote the press telegram, Eff the presence of these two vessels is not sufficient to convince the Sultan that the United States is en- titled to take rank as maritime power, Admiral Green, in command of the Quinnebaugh, the flagship, will go tc Tangiers from Vile, French naval sta. tion, in order that he may look tho ground over and make formal repor to the Navy Department. It is expect ed that Captain McCalla will send statement of the condition of affairs t. the secretary of the navy at once. Should the marine procession fail t. electrify the lustful old Moor, the "for nal report' ought certainly to startl him out of his dream of fancied securit and awaken dread of the fearful alter native: that of mugwump being sen over to talk him to death. In the mear time the unfortunate cause of this tempel in a teapot is impatiently pacing Moo ish dungeon expecting every moment hear the explosion of Q few bombshell tossed over into the city by our peacef

The Public Domain.

Tie public lands which are adapted to agriculture are rapidly being appro- priated by individuals. The unoccupied portions of the public domain comprise the last cheap land which is within the reach of men of moderate means. Very little government land remains in the Western States, and the Territories are being populated with an industrious, active and energetic people. Westward from the Mississippi and eastward from the Pacific, the ever-increasing popula- tion of this great Republic is spreading out and covering the arabic lands which lie between. The value of lands held in private ownership Is rapidly increasing, and already is manifested by the immi- grant and home seeker deep anxiety to secure home, while yet homes are given by generous government to actual settlers.
 The phenomenal growth of California, and the fever of land speculation which has for the past few years pervaded all classes of society in that wonderful State, have caused the price of all kinds
 of real estate to rise to such figures as
 practically to prevegt any one from oh.
 taining land unless he is very wealthy.
 Scarcely any agrlcuStural land Tn de-
 sirable part of California can be had al
 less than one hund dred dollars per acre
 while five hundred, and even more, pel
 acre is not all unusual prire.
 Southern Arizona offers to the imml grant home where perfect climate insures health and comfort; where lanC is abundant and cheap; where the soil il rich, lasting and wonderfully prolific } where bounteous nature renders thu greatest return for labor; where variet
 resources are being rapidly developed
 where excellent educational facilities ar, ever at hand; where railroads will brin' to his door the luxuries of life, and tran t sport to market the produce of his farm : where neither cyclone, blizzard nor win ter blast is known, but the balniy, pure l dry and life giving air restores and pre- t serv es health, i'm parting vigor to brai l and muscle; where churches, schools
 newspapers, society, intelligence and re finement abide, and rich territory F. developing into great and prosperou e State. .-Sentinel.

Tine paper containing the opening chapters of this wonderfully popular romance appeared on the news stands this morning.

 The officials of the state of Sonora have been notified that the Series In- dians, tribe inhabiting Fiburon island, in the Gulf of California, have crossed over the strait of Infernalllly to Sonora, where they are committing depredations on an extensive scale.
