In fact they say naughty things of each other at long range and if we are 10 believe either the other is no gentleman. Both profess to be laboring for the in- terests of Arizona and yet they pull in opposite directions.

ERICKSON, the lunatic whose divine revelation" that San Francisco and other cities were to be destroyed by n tidal wave and an earthquake, now lays the blame for it's non-fulGllment upon God. He says the Almighty made a mistake, in which assertion we heartily coincide. He made a mistake in wasting the breath of life upon such sterile dust as Erickson.

Let us Awaken.

The territories of Arizona and New Mexico have hid their light under a bushel to greater extent than any other portion of the union. California has cried and showed her wares to the world, and the homeseekers from the four corners of the earth have crowd ed into the land of oranges and snow in greater numbers for years. Its name is household word, and it has flourished and grown great. It's immi- grafton bureau, its papers and it's peo- pie are loyal to the interests of their country, and no chance to spread its fame Is lost. The northern territories have heralded their wealth and advan- tages, until the wealth and home seekers roamed over and staked off their broad plains into homes like an avalanche.
 In the last few years the southern states cast off the lethargic sleep that enthralled portion of that country, and now with their numerous enterpris- ing towns they are known as the most progressive portion of the union All this has been done by the ceaseless agitation of the press, that showed their advantages to capital and labor
 This territory, one of the richest in mineral wealth, thousands of miles of plains covered with juicy grasses, where stock exists during the year without shelter or attention beyond keeping them upon their own range, great broad valleys of farm land that await the plowshare and the hand Of the husbandman, and in some DOT tions of the territory there are virgin forests of timber awaiting the axe oi the lumberman. What we need more than anything else is an awakening from the present easy going course.
 The tide of immigration is passing around and through us. We have more to offer than any other section of the country, and we are to blame knowing all the facts and advantage: of our territory, by not letting the facts be knOwn.-Clifton Clarion.

STANLEY, the African explorer, has taken lager and pretzels with the king of Belgium, and is the lion of the day in European social circles. His con tact with the savages of the dark con tinent has gilded his plebeian origin and made him a companion for royal ty. His daring explorations into the land of darkness certainly entitle him to the consideration of men of science and progress and royalty honors itseli in honoring him.

Wm. Pickett, Superintendent of the Quijotoa mines near Tucson and John Campbell, of Tucson, in company with Wm. Lyle and wife and Hank Donnelly, of San Francisco, have been in our camp for several days, locking at the mining property To- cated in Gold Gulch, with view of purchasing group of mines in that rich camp. Mir Pickett has been here before, looking at this property and from his report upon them, the other named gentlemen and capitalists re- turned with him for further inspec- tion. The information we could gather from them was, that they ex- pressed themselves as more than pleased with the indications, and thought we had the best mineral dis trict in the great Southwest. We feel justified in stating that there will be mining deal effected soon, which will be of more than ordinary impor- tance.

Entire mirror and picture frames are made In white metal and britannia ware
 Travelling soap receptacles are made at tractive as well as convenient in britannia by etching and chasing
 The prettiest ornament for the amber lorg- mons is made up of slender gold zig gags and tiny gold nails set in stars, disks, circles and whirls.
 Fruit sets in eases are of silver gilt with perforated basket woven edges and have diff ferent fruits engraved in low relief in the centers.
 An exquisite little pocket comb piece re- peats in repousse silver with hand chasing floral and fruit design taken from an old Italian carving.
 Card cases and purses of leather are only less sumptuous than those of metal. A card case of black levant for sample is sornamented with feurs-de-lis in diamonds.
 One of the richest objects seen is a dead beaten gold parasol handle. It assumes a sort of rustic shape with gold vines in relief, of which the flowers are uncut sapphires, blue and white.

The Future of AgricuIture. .

"We are on the eve of a decided revolution in agriculture" Thus said prominent agriculturist to the writer some days since He went on to say, that the political factions who had formerly looked upon the granger, solely as q thing" to use when his vote was wanted, were beginning to see that the farmer is fast becoming a power in the land. In support Of this argument, he offered the fact that several astute politicians were espousing the cause of the agricultur- ist in the legislative halls. We be- lieve our friend is right, and that the agricultural portion of the country will, ere long, be recognized in their true station, as the reliable support of the nation.
 But the question demands atten- ton on the other side. If the farm CTS are being recognized as the foun- dation on which rests the security oi our government, are they fitting themselves for the position they may be called upon to, occupy when the new era dawns? We fear not. They fail to make the most of their oppor- tunities. They are, as a rule, con tent to be pushed to the wall and their places usurped by men of push if not of brains. To ourselves, and in ourselves must we look for the revolution which shall put us on q stronger footing, rather than to the machination of political alliance. I: not the game worth the candle?- Exchange.
