The McAndrews Plant.

A meeting of the subscribers to the Mean
drews plant was held at the Office of D. C. Gard
ner & Co., last Wednesday evening, to take into
pective encouragement offered by the new pro-
prietorship and management, in relation to its
future as permanent and successful industry of
our city. Those of the subscribers who had
paid in the amount of their subscriptions, deci-
ded to make pro rata assessment for the pay
ment of the years rent in fulfillment of their
implied or conditional obligations in securing its
location in this place. The feeling was unani-
nous that the device was all that had been rep
resented by its inventor, for overcoming the
dead center in machinery, and that it would
only be matter of time, before its application
would be universal to sewing machines.
Mr.. Fowler, who was present with one of the
devices, and exhibited its successful working, is
sanguine of success, in its ownership and mann
facture, and it is to be hoped that the same en-
couragement may be accorded to him as that
rendered to the patentee, in securing its manu-
facture in our city.
There can be no question of its universal de-
mand and sale, or that its manufacture may
be made one of the leading industries of the
day, and Mr.. Fowler should, as he doubtless
will, receive financial aid and encouragement
| in overcoming whatever temporary embarrass-
| ment he may encounter, thereby enabling him
| to place its manufacture on an assured and per-
manent base. in its present location, adding. a:
it will, materially to the business activity of oul
| city.
Surrounding towns are eagerly welcoming
new industries with financial aid and liberal do
nations, and it behooves Ravenna to be no lag
gard in these matters. Upon the enterprise anc
public spirit manifested. depends the growtl
and prosperity of any town, in whatever locali
| ty or surroundings. Remembering this let u
not be oblivious and lethargic, as to our city
present as well as future growth and standin.

TEA ADULTERA ALTON!

1t is we'll known fact that the adulteration of Tea
increased rapidly during the past few years. that
the Government has been brought to bear against this
great evil by inspection at the Custom House. But to
what does this amount to- long the American Tea
Dealers continually practice mixing with all Impurities?
The for this adulteraton may be summed up in

kinds could be pamed off for TEA, by the addition of
coloring matter, such PRUSSIAN BLUE and IN

 Jasper Henderson had an unpleasant experience with wild cat last Saturday morning, at his ranch on Salt River. Hearing a noise in the chicken house, Jasper went out to investigate, and found wild cat was the disturber. He fired shot at it from his revolver, when the cat attacked him, sprung upon him and sank its fangs ill his right shoulder. Jasper's pistol was out of order and would not go of he called to his brother who ran to his assistance. Jasper in the meantime had pulled the animal from his shoulder, but it bit him on the left wrist and hand before he succeeded in choking the vicious brute to death.
 The plural wife system prevails at San Carlos, where it is regarded by Apache bucks as profitable for the Ted5OH IildJ WlVeS are IlreIeSS tOllerS. They chop wood, carry water, pack hay, herd stock, build wickiups, cook and in fact, do all the labor calculated to con tribute to the necessity and comfort of the camps. Apache women are mer- chantable, are bought and sold. A bucks wealth is estimated, m part, by the number of his wives. The value of wife is calculated by the weight she can carry; therefore, those having defec- tive spines and unable to pack a sack of four, or bundle of hay, or an eighth of cord of wood and papoose at the same time, are not regarded as valuable property, and are less appreciated by their masters than pony CT burro. This, doubtless, their philanthropic friends in the east are ignorant of or else they would redouble their prayers for the amelioration of the weary lives of their untutored Arizona sisters, who neither "see God in clouds, nor hear him ia the winds" Squaws have no time for religious meditation. Their lives, like Mantilina's, is tone dem'd eternal grind"

LAND owners should not lose sight of the great profits to be derived from the culture of the sugar beet. The question of getting factory here will be quickly solved if the land owners bur show that they will produce the beets. Claus Spreckles has several times offered to build factories in various sections of California if land owners would guaran- tee the cultivation of specified number of acres of beets for term of years and there is no doubt but he would do the same here.

PROMOTING LINEN FACTORIES.

Congress has arranged the tariff with view to promoting the manufacture of linen in the United States. Immedi. ately following the final adjustment of rates in the new Tariff bill, news comes of the projected establishment of large linen mill at Minneapolis. Farmers in the Northwest have for years been grow ing hundreds of acres of flax for the seed only, allowing the straw to go to waste. Since waste of raw materials is repugnant to protectionists, they deter mined that this valuable product of Minnesota farms should be provided with convenient market.
 The linen mill is already under way, and now the prediction of the support CTS of the Mckinley bill, thatinvaluable labor saving inventions as well as new industries would follow increased pro- lection, seems to be realized. Recently an Eastern paper contained this signif- icant piece of news:
 G. Y. smith, at ll6 Sixth street, South Minneapolis, has invented and is manufactur- ing thresher for flax that saves the straw perfectly straight and which has proven a success.
 This genius for invention and econo- mixing labor, which is characteristic of the American people, will soon put to shame the unpatriotic growlers who contend that linen cannot be manufac- tured successfully in this country. Another Smith will quickly appear, if his services be needed, todevise methods of turning that flax into linens with such saving of labor as to rival in cheapness the products of the ill-paid, dull-brained laborers of European countries.

SAYS the Tucson Star; "The ques- tion of fruit raising in every section of Arizona has been fully demonstrated and it has been established beyond cavil that nearly all classes of fruit and nuts can be produced with profit. Our val leys, our table lands, our mountain sides are we'll adapted to some or all kinds of fruits. This fact being es- tablished, it is of the first importance that our people increase their orchards, and those who have not yet planted fruit trees, go to work at once and plant this season, so that the fruit consump- tion of Arizona may be supplied by the home producers. This suggestion is especially applicable to Pima County"

Sydney and Vicinity,

From the Buckeye Blade.
 The recent change in the ownership of the Bonanza and other claims in the Harqua Hala mining district has given an impetus to travel in that direction.
 l.. o. Wiley has moved the cottage from his ranch into town and located it on lot adjoining his shop. Buckeye, therefore, has one more dwelling house than it had week ago.
 While we cannot always have regular Sunday services here in Buckeye, yet it is pleasing to note that the Sunday school, under the superintendency of Miss Haskell, is always well attended and much interest in the exercises manifested.
 The old man who was found dead some weeks ago near Robbins Butte, is well known to the citizens of Gila Bend as an old prospector, named Valentine, who usually made an annual visit to that section.

Yuma's Advantages.
From the Yuma Times.

From the Yuma Times.
 Postmaster Ewing has handed us a letter from II. c, Cone, of Thermal, Fresno County, California, who makes some inquiries concerning this section, and we make answer in print, as others may be interested. The average annual temperature of Yuma is about 55 degrees. The lowest thermometer is 27 in the winter with frosts occasionally. Tomatoes will ripen during some winters, but except in favored spots have to be protected. There are no fogs here. The country in the Colorado and Gila valleys is generally level. The Colorado is well stocked with fish of several different kinds.
 We hope the above answers will prove sufficiently satisfactory to MT. Cone, and that he will locate here and bring others with him.

 THANKsoIvISG DAY was observed lin Phoenix yesterday with fervor and completeness that made it true holi- day. The weather was beyond improve ment, with balmy, calm atmosphere, never to be known elswhere than in Arizona. Several picnic parties en- joyed sylvan delights, and business men, released for awhile from the cares of trade, took to rod and gun. The turkey and pumpkin pie, dear to Yankee hearts, were the chief dishes of the evening meal, and if thanks were not offered for the blessings and bounty of the past year, contentment, at least, prevailed on this day of good cheer and good will.
