THERE is disposition shown by western congressman to deal literally with capitalists who will build storage reservoirs and irrigating canals in the arid region, in the way of acquiring title to the lands they will reclaim. With proper restrictions such a plan may facilitate the reclamation of vast tracts of now barren land that will otherwise remain for many years in their present worthless condition. Un- der the desert land law nearly all the developments in southern Arizona have been accomplished and there is no necessity for its repeal. There is very little inducement for attempts to evade it's provisions, for It is applicable only to lands that possess no value until water is developed for it's culti- vation. If this law is to be changed at all it would greatly facilitate the settlement of this country to permit the settler to deed one-half his land to the comPany that supplies the water in lieu of a cash payment for a water, right.

SENATOR REAGAN was well pleased with what he saw in Arizona, although but q small portion of its development came under his observation. If he was charmed with the Salt river valley he would have been delighted with the Gila valley about Florence where all is so new and yet so very attractive. His impressions are but the counter part of those of every intelligent per, son who visits Arizona, for the evi- dence of ones senses is all that is nec- essary in believing that it's future is one of the brightest promise.

There is no necessity of getting ex- cited over the smallpox scare. The whole matter is exaggerated. There are five cases at Benson and the precautions taken by the board of supervisors to confine it to its present limits, will check its spreading. It is not thought that the disease can be come dangerous one in this locality There have been times when in Tomb stone we have had several cases at one time, but no deaths resulted, The wild reports of death and devas- tation are not conducive to the well fare of our county or the people, well or sick.

From The Reymert.

MT. James Quiggle came in Christ mas Eve from the Reymert Camp, where he is now at work sinking the well that has caused that company so much trouble during the past six months. Three different men were given the contract for sinking the well, and each successively made failure. Mir. Quiggle is an expert well man, with an experience in boring wells in this territory greater than any other man, and says he can see no reason now why the well should not go down. He has reached depth of 250 feet, and has hole as straight as a gun barrel with the first 125 feet, where all the past trouble has been encountered, lined with substantial casing
 The mill is running steadily, and producing bullion in satisfactory quan titles. When sufficient water is develop ed, new and improved machinery will be erected. Ten stamps are all that is running now, as the present roasting facilities will only supply that num- Der, but new roaster is now about ready for use which will enable the twenty stamps to run.
 The principal owners of this prop erty visited the camp last week and were highly pleased with the present condition of things there. It is the usually expressed opinion of min ingmen that have visited the Reymert, that it is the largest and best mine in Arizona to-day, and that the camp will be the largest in this section at an early day.
 MT. Quiggle will remain with his family in this city during the holi- days, when he will return to the mine.-Citizen.
