OUR CANALS.

There seems to be @ disposition on tho part of the Herald to cause trouble tc the canal interests of this valley. It i: not enough that the floods of last spring should have cost the canals most seri ous loss, but now jack-leg lawyers mus, be given space or encouraged to write up impossible requirements for the con trol of the canals of the territory aided by editorials. The only reasonable solution of this action on the part of tht Herald is, that it may pay to do so.
 Salt River Valley owes all that it Ina, to the energy of the gentlemen, who through trials and tribulations have al last succeeded in putting water on it, lands. Without this water these land, were and are absolute deserts, with water and proper care and cultivation they are the garden of America.
 Is there any just cause of complaint against these canals? We certainly have never heard of any. On the contrary the quantity of water given by them is ample, so long as there is water in the river to give.
 The price charged is not only reason able, it is exceedingly low. We under. stand that twelve and half dollars is the price per acre for vested interest in the Arizona canal and that the an nual rental per acre is about one and a half dollars. And these rates are fixed for all time by contract subject to only slight increase in the annual rental.
 In California vested rights in any of the main canals cost from fifty to two hundred and fifty dollars per acre and in many places annual rentals are as high as ten dollars per acre and with the power to increase, and that in a State, that has the much talked of Wright Law" Nowhere in the United States with equal possibilities of results, and where water is as scarce IS there any system of canals more rea- sonable than are our Arizona canals. The fact that proper advantage has not and is not yet being taken oi the great ci hiiNOhh anu WdLtT, is not the fault of the canals. On the contrary it is distinctly and directly the fault of the consumers of the water 1; 1t is their right to say whether they will grow fruit that will average them from s2O0 to s300 an acre, or alfalfa that does not average them $l5 an acre, and yet takes as much water as five acres of $500 fruit would take. Every country, of a necessity, must have it's "oysters" people, who live on the theory that the world owes them living-back-sliders and black-mailers-and it would be & singular thing should Arizona prove an exception, and therefore these articles.
 The United States law approved March 8, 1891, has given vested rights to canals and to the users of water through them, that no future Territorial or State legislation can divest them of yet evil minded persons may do much to annoy. Our advice to canal owners is to entirely ignore their would be enemies.

DEMOCRATIC WHINE.

The Gazette of yesterday takes Acting Governor Murphy to task for the ap- pointment of Dr. Miller as superintend- ent of the Insane Asylum, not that it has any special reason to object to Dr. Miller, but because Dr. Titus was not selected. It says: "The people have not forgotten the treatment Dr. Titus re- ceived from the Wolfey administra- tion, and, as Murphy had an opportun- ity to redress those wrongs and did not do it, he should be held as much re- sponsible for them as the Wolfey gang" A man who has no cause of complaint, invariably rushes into gen. eralisties.
 The Wolfiey administration did re- move Democrat from office. If the Democrats come into power, will the Gazette use its valuable columns in urging the retention of Republicans in officeP In our minds eye, we by a very great stretch ot imagination might possibly imagine such thing, but a single glance at the real, would shatter the ideal imagination at once. We are aware that we have given serious grounds of offense to our Democratic brethern--thst is, when they are called upon to give public expression in regard to us, but privately each and every one of them would have done just as we did-'turn the rascals out"
 We came into office with every office in the Territory filled with Democrat; {; when we went out of office, every office in the Territory was filled with a Re- publican--and for this we are called all manner of names by men who would not have hesitated to have used force, where we took only the slow course of legal means, and not man of all of them was removed except by legal means.
 Politically or legally considered, we did our duty, and the abusive epithets that were then, and still continue to be flung at us, are gratifying to us, because it shows that our blows on the enemy were strong and lasting.
 Of all the sins on earth, to put a Democrat out of office is the worst :: to keep him out of office, is the next worst. The act to be best rewarded on earth, is to put Republican out of office, and the next highest is to abuse Republican for keeping a Democrat out of office. The Gazette has always done it's best to be entitled to a second best seat. Keep it up hbor, it pleases us to hear you whine.

dience was small hut very attentive.

have the two precincts join for the pres
ent. Another meeting was held Satur-

Lehi. They had good house and play

were truly wonderful. The manager
gave short lecture on animal magni-
tism after which Messrs. Scabright,
Campbell, Taylor, Fox, Stewart, Alfred
and Dorton, were chosen 10 take places
on the stage. These men tried their
strength both singly and together in
various ways against Miss Price. Three
OF the largest sat on chair which she
raised off the floor using only the palm
OF her hands greatly TO the delight OF
the audience. She also twisted very
tough stick easily breaking it off near
where three men were holding it. Her
many ieats, and all indeed she adver-
tised she performed well, were truly
wonderful and greatly amazed the audi
ence. Miss Somerville's singing and
dancing also took well. We regret that
some present were little too boistrous.
