| It was learned yesterday from the | Colonel himself, who was taught to al- i ways speak the truth by his good grand mOther.that since he moved his business | from Meyer to Congress street, his bus ! mess had increased in volume from day ! Go day. He now sells one car load of [ John Wieland's beer every three weeks, and more than car load of AnheuSer- Bush beer. in the same length of time.
 Beer is only one branch of the large business now carried on by Col. Durr, at his corner on Congress street. Swiss cheese is received in pOnderous cases direct from the old country, and his sales amount to over 700 pounds month; also California cheese IS hand led in large quantities, and the finest of Limberge- cheese is always kept on hand, though the sales are not enormous y large.
 His cigars are all made specially for him and are sold at wholesale and retail.
 THE WARUM DARUM BRAND

 Queen olives, the best ever offered Tn ltilS market, are T6celN6u ulIcCO IHOuh Spain, ir huge casks.
 Tn the cellar is kept fine Sherry w1ne, dozens of barrels, and everything that is better by being kept in a cool place.
 Whiskey is received from not only all over the United States, but much direct from the old country, three or four of the best brands made in Hamburg. In one room alone, the reporter counted
 l55 BARRELS OF WHISKEY, and including wines and brandies, his present stock would not fall short of 300 barrels and kegs. Also choice brand of mescal is handled for the benefit of those who like 1t.

THE future of Arizona at the present time of writing, has a better outlook than ever in the history of the Territo- ". The great cattle interests have grown wonderfully during the past few years in spite of every obstacle, until to- day We stand second to none as beef producers, and as a farming country we are without peer This fact has been fully demonstrated in the fertile valleys of Maricopa during the past three years, and to-day there are farms in the Salt REer valley that cannot be excelied, in point of productiveness, by any in the west. Our mineral interests have also assumed healthy glow, and where the marauding aboriginee used to swarm and plunder, will be found the honest countenance of the tolling miner, and the fruits of industrious labor.

As arid lands are, now they are abso- lutely of no value to anybody. The government could not give them away, to say no;hilg of selling them. It has been estimated that it will cost the Unit ed States about s1O0OOOOOO to make these lands cultlvaole by supplying them with a regular supply of water for irrigation. When this is done the lands will sell readily at an average of s10 per acre, so the account will stand in this way: Cost of reclamation S1OO,OO0,O00; cash received from sale of reclaimed lands, 100,OOO,O0O, acres, at s10 per acre, sl,0O0,OO0,000; profit to the United States on the transaction, S9O0,OOO,OO0, or more than the actual amount of the national debt at this time.
 But this is not the best or strongest argument in favor of retaining the arid lands; if the United States should pay out S100O00000 and not only not make profit on the land, but not get back single cent of its outlay, still it would be good speculation; for the country could afford to buy cultivatable land for the people at s1 per acre. To add 100,000,000 acres to the tillable land of the United States is to create homes for generations yet unborn. It creates a territory nearly as large as the repub lie of France, which supports popula- tion of 3S,OO0,OOO people, and all this the government can get for S1 an acre. Ger bainly no other nation in the world would hesitate moment over the pro- position, and it is not likely congress will haggle over it when it clearly un- derstands it-Santa Fe New Mexican.

OUR MINES.

One of the worst enemies to the pro gress of mining in this Territory is the exaggeration miners are so prone to make in speaking of the mineral resources. It not infrequently happens that ten inch pay strike extends to four foot vein of solid metal, under the enlarging influence of few potations and the prospect of enlisting an interesting amount of capital. When a real pur- chaser comes along and examines lit tie mineral seam that was represented to him to be a big mIne, and meet with a similar disappointment several times in succession, he naturally infers that min ing is humbug, and miners given to a sight degree of preyarication. But the strangest feature of the phenomenon is that the miner often deliberately de- ceives himself. His hopeful mind dwells unconsciously upon the future castles that the inevitable rich strike will build for him. and out of this absorbing desire his judgement isno often obscured that mere indicasions will pass current with him for the genuine article. He dis cards the unpleasant opinions of his calmer judgment and instinctively fol lows dazzling hope based upon the vagaries of luck-a fair illustration of the blind leading the blind. To be sure there are exceptions-many of them but this spractice of exaggeration is pretty generally distributed throughout all mining districts. Facts-plain, solid, tangible truths-are the best, and if the truth be told, very conservatively, 1t is good enough, andin many instances it will pass current for exaggeration, be cause of the phenomenal richness of some of our mining properties.
