WITHOUT any intention of detracting from the record made by previous in- cumbents of the office of United States Marshal for this Territory, We have no hesitancy in saying that since Robert H. Paul was appointed to that office by President Harrison, the Republican party has reason to feel proud of his record. As an official he is endorsed by by United States, States and Territorial officials from the Pacific to the Atlantic oceans. His record as successful crim- inal officer has brought his name prom inently before the Senators from the Pa cifc coast, several of whom are sc- quainted with him personally, and who have unanimously endorsed him for the position he now occupies. Since his ap- pointment to that office his name as such United States Marshal has been a terror to train robbers, stage robbers and all evil doers. And in the reorgan- ization of the Republican party for the coming campaign there is no man who can do more to influence public senti- ment than Robert II. Paul. We believe there is no man who is stronger with his party or who can draw more from the opposition than he can. The mal- contents and mugwumps, with which the party in this Territory has hereto fore been afflicted, would do well to rec ognize this fact and get in the swim while they can.

TUCSON.

The Building and Loan Association of Tucson has accomplished much good for the old Pueblo. With it's advent came the first improvement ex- perienced in Tucson since the dull times set in seven years ago. At the time of the organization of the Building and Loan Association, Tucson, was per haps, at it's lowest state of prosperity, and needed energetic m overs to awaken it from it's state of lethargy. To very great extent the Building and Loan Association accomplished this result. At the present time the Associations income is not large enough to accom- modate the demand for money. The city is on the eve of building boom, bricks have been reduced B per cent during the past year, and other beneficial features to building have occurred that will make building active, and the Build ing and Loan Association will have heavy demands on it for money, which it should prepare to meet,

SAN CARLOS COAL FIELDS.

TIE importance of cutting the coal lands from the San Carlos Indian reser- yation, in order that the white people of Arizona may have an opportunity to mine and use the coal, can scarcely be estimated. The result of such an action would be that the hundreds of industries that are now unthought of, would spring into life, and the manu- featuring and mining industries would receive an impetus, such as has been wholly unknown within our borders.
 Among the largest consumers of coal, thematter of cutting off these fields, is an absorbing topic. One company in the Territory would use 5000 tons per month while two other companies would not use less than l5O0 tons a piece, and it is perfectly safe to figure that the south ern half of the Territory would consume l5,0O0 tons of coal each month if it was made available by extensive order, and this immediate demand would be con stantly on the increase, as the grand results of cheap fuel became apparent, and industries became possible, that to- day it would be suicidal to undertake.
 It seems almost incredible that the Government would be willing to allow the growth of this great Territory to be retarded for an indefinite period, in order to allow few hostile Indians to wander over the barren, rocky waste forming the surface of these coal fields. It is true the Indians utilize this sur face for the gathering of cactus with which to make Mescal to satisfy their craving for strong drink. But is that a recompense for depriving the energetic
 courageous white men of this Territory - of the benefits of cheap fuel? We hardly think so; and we think if the matter was properly laid before the President - aud Secretary of the Interior, it would received their favorable consideration. This action should not be taken at the ipstigation of lot of spectators or land grabbers, but it should be the unanimous sentiment of the Territory, It should be voiced by the Press, and that too necessarily, and it should be made factor in politics. No delegate
Arizona republican., 1891-08-15

should even be nominated that would not pledge himself to get the coal lands thrown open to Arizons's people, Mark Smith has proven totally obliyious to this matter, as he has to thousand and one other trusts imposed on him, and it behooves the people to see that a delegate goes to Washington that has enough interest in the Territory of Ari- zona. and enough energy and life to take this matter properly before the ad- ministration and secure the favorable action that would be sure to follow a little intelligent work in behalf of cheap fuel. From this time out, let the watch word be home mined coal.

PRoF. NJ. Denicke, of Fresno, Cal, |, who is recognized as the best authority on the Pacific Coast on figs and fig cul- ture, has been through our valley, es- pecislly to study the fig and to advise the Messrs Bartlett Brothers in relation to their fig orchards. After over a weeks visit he left last Wednesday morning. Words were hardly strong enough for Mir. Denicke to ex- press his high appreciation of the Salt River Valley and it's capabilities for the production of figs of the finest mar ketablel value. On Wednesday last we gave very full description of the man. ner of pruning and irrigating the fig as found by MT. Denicke's experience, to produce the best results. We have been very careful to get his system as he gaveit, and have no doubt but what if it is followed, that it will be product i've of good results. It reads sensiblv, and his explanations and reasons made it appear beyond question. That there shall be no possible mistake. we have forwarded the article to Prof. Denicke with the request that he correct any error we may have made, and upon his reply, we will make such corrections as he may point out. The Professor was amazed at the want of action on the part of our people. Do they know what a fortune is within the reach of all of them? Do they know that this is the finest fig country in the world Do they know that they can supply the market fully two months before any for eign figs can be brought to New York |? If was not so old, would sell out and come here. 1 may do so yet" These and many other equally strong remarks were made by Prof. Denicke, and he looked even more than he said. How long will the Salt River Valley people wait? What are they waiting fnry

Arizona republican., 1891-08-15

It affords pleasure to the management of TEE REPUBLICAN to be entitled to &C., knowledge steady and marked increase in the circulation. This, doubtless, is the best, as it is the most substantial, evidence that could be given that it is gaining the approval and confidence of the people. The more so is this gratify- ing, as the new subscribers rank among the best and most substantial residents of Arizona; these invariably have mani tested their kindly feeling, not simply by becoming subscribers, but by their accompanying favorable and kindly ex- pressions of appreciation.
