 Arizona grass is unequal for mak- ing fine beef.-Graham County
 Bulletin.
 The people of Phoenix saw a rare sight this morning; one which in eight years experience we have never enjoyed on more than three occasions; viz, a real fog, true to name, as the nursery men say Herald.
 So far as it is now known there will be nearly three thousand acres of land set out to orchard and vine yard this winter in this valley. This is a pretty good start for sparsely settled and new country, but it will be doubled next year and before ten years this whole country will be pretty much all orchard and vineyard and unpur- chasable at an average of $500 per acre. Think of it, ye kicker. Think of it you who adhere to your barley and alfalfa. in the face of overwhelming evidence that you cannot afford to raise them.-Phoe nix Herald.
 The cattlemen met in Tucson the other day and organized the Southwestern Cattle Association, the largest organization of the kind in the territory. It will take in the entire southern portion ot the territory and in all probability the greater portion of the central part. Among the objects in view are securing the enactment by the legislature of better cattle laws and also establishing a trail to Cali fornia for the purpose of driving feeders to that market The As sociation elected Fred Maish, Mayor of Tucson, President and Ben Hcney, Secretarv.-NOgales Herald.
 It is conceded that at the pres ent rate of growth of our popula tion we will in few years require all the cattle we can raise in the United States to feed our own peo- pie, while the more thickly popu lated countries of Europe cannot even now raise enough meat for their own use; then with increas- ing foreign and home demand fOr beef, and only limited increase of our beef supply, now about 37,- 100000 cattle, besides the 16.000,- 600 milch COWS, our chief increase must be in the increased value from the universal introduction of the improved breeds .nd the use of full blood sires of the beef breeds.-Texas Stock Journal.
 Messrs. Darlington and Gates are warm and logical opponents of the many natural advantages and capabilities Of Yuma county. They speak hopefully of the min ing prospects of their section of the Territory and suggest boundless agricultural possibilities in refer ring to the vast canal that is pro- jected to appropriate the waters of the Colorado at a point about thirty miles north of the city. This canal, crossing the Gila upon an aqueduct, will cover an expanse of nearly a million acres, extend ing far into Mexico, and all avail able for the growth of nearly every product of the vegetable kingdom. Surely Yuma county will yet have a teeming population and great rosperity.-Republican.
 There appears to be a manifest desire among the majority of the members elected to the coming legislature to reduce the expense of maintaining territorial, county and municipal government in the ter ritory. It is to- be hoped the legis- lature will begin its work of reform in its own body by employing no unnecessary clerks and by paying reasonable per diem and no more to those it does employ. Then if 1t will follow this example by abolishing all unnecessary offices and reducing the salary of all the various commissioners, superin- tendents and clerks of the various  territorial institutions and reduc- inp the salaries anA faes nf rnnn+,-
