part of the members of the firm.
The firm is styled Garst, Frasier q
Garst, and as will be remembered the
Garst brothers moved here several years
ago and went into the business on a
limited scale on West Douglas near the
river. They were getting along we'll and
a fire one evening made the plant blank.
They then secured the location adjoining
the Garfield hall and erected a building
and put in laundry not eXcelled IN the
state They were joined about three years
ago by Mr. Fraser who also knows the
business quite well.
The building occupied by the laundry
has front of forty feet and seYenty-five
feet deep-two story brick and recently
the room adjoining on the west
a part of the Garfield hall building was
secured and is used for bath rooms and
office 1t has front Of thirty feet and
sixty feet deep, making total frontage of
seventy-fiye feet.
The machinery and apparatus for the
entire establishment and improvements
complete cost over $25, 600, one of the
largest plants of its kind to be found in
the west. The pay roll shows about thirty
names, while the largest wages paid out
per month amount to over 800 This may
not be a million day business but a
million plants each employing as many
people would make quite an interesting
city.
In the ElanGdrv proper it may be inter
esting to observe the system preserved in
handling goods. On receiving a bundle 1t
is sent to the second floor to the list
ing ROOM Elevator facilities enable quick
handling of goods in conveying them from
one floor to the other The listing room is
in charge of one who makes list of every
bundle, properly marks every piece and
sends the list to the office where every
thing is registered.
Leaving the listing room there are seven
washing machines, six for linens and one
for flannels. The machines are cylindrical
in shape, seven feet long and three and
half feet in diameter They have reverse
motion, three revolutions each way, the
object being TO keep the goods from tang
ling 1t takes about two hours for one
washing, and at the end of this time it is
supposed that it won't take much of a
bluff to make the customers think very
little dirt is left in their clothes.
The extractor, or centrifugal, awaits the
goods leaving the washing machines. it
is a bucket sort of an arrangement, that
may accommodate fifty big shirts or
sevepty-five small ones, and is provided
with speed giving arran gemens. By sim
pie twist of the wrist it commences TO get
a clever motion, and within few seconds
is travelling at the rate OF /, 200 revolutions
per minute In about three minutes the
water and the good has made a tangent
for liberty and the shirts are ready for the
starch machine which is a small cOntriv-
ance with two paddles that beat the starch
into the shirt, taking about one minute TO

At Col. Durr's Place.

It wGs learned yesterday from tt e Colonel himself, who was taught to ai- ways speak the truth by his good grand mother, that since he moved his business from Meyer to Congress street, his bus iness had increased in volume from day to day. He now cells one car load of John Wieland's beer every three weeks. and more than car load of Anheussr- 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 a month; also California cheese is hand led in large quantities, and the finest of Limberger cheese is always kept on hand, though the sales are not enormous ly large.
 His cigars are all made specially for him and are sold at wholesale and retail
 THE wARUa DARUM BRAND IS we'll known and has no superior for the price. The latest brand is the Tip pecanoe, and it is equal to any cigar to be had in this market.
 Queen olives, the best ever offered in this market, are received direct from Spain, in huge casks.
 In the cellar is kept fine Sherry wlne, dozens of barrels, and everything that is better by being kept in cool place.
 Whisksy 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
 155 BARRELS OF wHIsKEY, and including wInes and brandies, his present stock would not fall short Of 300 barrels and kegs. Also choice brand of mescai is handled for the benefit of these who like it.
 Besides, all the finest bitters known to mankind, are kept, many of them being imported. In fact, everything in the way of saloon supplies is kopt, and noth- ing but the best quality IS sold

HARD TIMES.

People speak of hard times as they do of an earthquake or cyclone something inevitable and beyond remedy. Indeed they are regarded as a serious infiiction, visiting the world without apparent req son, and staying so long as they fine means of subsistence. Occasionally We hear complaints of hard times in ouI midst, but generally from that class who prefer idleness to industry, and who are always on the qui Viye for some means of grumbling. The laboring class are the arteries through which the cur rent of money flows from the pulsatine heart of active capital, carrying peace and prosperity into every phase of life from the palace down to the hovel When through any means these arteries become clogged, and the supply of money is curtailed or denied the laboring class es, the depression in commercial affairs is felt at once, and if thesc conditions are protracted, hard times are sure to follow. Man car exist, when absolutely required to do so. upon an incredibly short allowance, and in seasons of depression the practice O economy in every detail is not only ee- seatial, but is one of the clements upor which the hard times subsist. But with us, among the natural resources oi Arizona, these periods of financial de p-assion are unknown. Our resources gre of such varied character, that the stagnation of one branch of industr! does not materially affect the working n3an. He can find profitable employ ment in other pursuits if he cannot command immediate recompense as 6 snecharic. In Arizona there is an oper and profitable field of industry for all, she poor man has an equal chance wlti; the rich, and he who cannot build him. sslf home and lay aside a small bank account after a few years ton in our territory, cannot hope to do 90 else where. h Q country where the work ingman can find constant employment, j. is safe to predict that hard times will never be seen. On the contrary, there is an era of prosperity beaming forth upon our broad domain that will cloud into obscurity the demon of pov- erty, and forever crown Arizona as the poor mans paradise.

By 6 recent order of Hon. T. J. Mor- gan, Commissioner of Indian affairs, Apachss have been forbidden to leave the reservation for tl.e purpose of Lunt- ing game, in violation of the Territorial lawe. Under these instructions Captain Bullis, at San Carlos, has been directed to issue no more passes to poor Lo. 4 more righteous order never was given, and Commissioner Morgan is entitled to the thanks of all AriZonans. For years the Indians have been privileged to leave the reservation at will, under the excuse of hunting game, which they not cnly destroyed in violation of the Federal statutes, but also killed cattle and stole horses of settlers at their own sweet will Heretofore, as said, the reservation h. dians have been allowed to prowl the country over, but thanks to Commission CT Morgan, a halt has been called in this direction,

THE Mammoth trade is liable to be large and of much benefit to Tucson, and should not be allowed to slip incautious- ly through the fingers of the business men of the old pueblo. If it does, and complaint is made about dull times, they alone will be to blame for it. The Lord will help only those who help themselves. and if we fail to do this then there can bo no just cause for complaint, The CITIZEN has advocated a road to Mammoth, road to Globe and roads to a dozen other places that would be of lasting benefit to the town, but thus far nothing has been accomplished. h. seryiew our business men upon the sub- iect and they consider this road build jnga most laudable undertaking, but in- asmuch as they have heretofore contri- b ted to schemes equally promising that izzled instead Of going of, they are somewhat reluctant about again put fling up'' Of course they cannot be blamed for that, but at the same time an effort sheul3 bs saade to hold the Eiammot. trade by the construction of 4 good road.

rRRrESTIoN.

C1a Q. tho most vital subjects to Ar zo..a at present is the matter of irriga- 4,o2, but it IS extremely doubtful if any i4.op Eiii be done in this direction dur Ing the present Congress. According tc telegraphic reports the irrigation com mittee made ifs report to the Senate on Friday last. The report says that more than two fifths of the area of the Unit ei States, including Alaska, requires irrl- gatlon to insure regular crops. With dams and resarvoirs at suitable places :arge extent of this region could be made productive. and the floods of the a.ississippi alleviated. The process of lrri- gat;on could be aided by boring artesiar wells. All of the country west Of the eastern base of the Rocky mountains rcqIires irrigation, except 8 part oi Wa shiagton, Oregon and Northern Cal. ifo-nia west of the Cascade mountains and small areas in Eastern Oregon, Washington and Northern Dakota.
 The report charges the geological SUI vey with diverting s1S0,00O of money aI propriated for irrigation surveys to the typographical survey.
 The committee submits in conclusion an estimate of the areas under cultiva tivation. From this it seems that the area under ditch is 13,460,O0o acres, ci which 100000 is in California and 5, O0Q.0lo in Colorado. The amount culti- sated by irrigation is 7,763,0O0, of which 2, ,000 acres is in California and l,6OO o03 acres in Colorado. Projects un- der way and partly completed will bring the acreage under ditch up to l5,- e00,000 acres.
 The total value of reclaimed land IS nearly S700Oo0,O00. Allowing for the re- -claimability of IO0,OOO,OoO acres of ard land, and We have a result total of real estate of the value of S2,500,O00,000.
 The committee on the bill reported heretofore recommended the transfer oi the subject to the department of agri- culture.
 THE MINORITY REPORT.
 Mr. Began submits minority report disagreeing with most of the conclusions of the majority, and recommending con gressional action diametrically opposed The minority says that the lands em brace an area of 1,340,0O0 square miles of which l00,OOO,OOO acres can be re deemed for agriculture, by using the total supply of perennial streams. The minority recommends the adoption Of system of measuring waters ussd for ir rigation to prevent waste. They urge the necessity of protecting the forests which are being rapidly burned, and alsc pasturage lands. Irrigable lands should be segregated and declared such, anC the right to use water on them estab lIshed, and prohibition put on the use o water on other lands. Irrigation dis tricts should be established, and the farmers on these lands should contro the receiving areas with all their values The minority believes the recommends tions to discontinue the topographi, work of survey and boring for srtesial water unWise.
