 Gen. G. Andrade has sold the American Colored Mems Mexican Colonization Company 100000 acres of his land on this side of the Colorado river. It begins at the boundary line 20 miles below here and extends down the river to, and includes the Lerdo Colony. The company has also bonded 100000 acres more adjoining the first tract. There were 60 dele gates at the meeting when the purchase was decided upon. Most ly from Tennessee and Mississippi. They intend to bring in 300 fam flies before the close of the year. This is an important transaction for Yuma. The colored men will make good farmers. They come from warm climate, and are ac- customed to hard labor, and the management and cultivation of lands that overflow.

THE tax payers of Yuma have a great deal to contend with at the present time, threatened with ex- tortionate assessments, dedication in the county Treasurer's office of $2, 200, which must be raised by direct taxation, as the bondsmen claim that they are not liable, and two Probate judges, acting each with a seal, mixing up probate and school matters. If there ever was a time when we were in need of an intelligent District Attorney who would act for the interests of the people, without fear or favor that time is the present, and we think that the appointment of MT. Purdy at this time is a very fortunate one, and trust that he will not be found wanting in this our hour of need.

THERE seems to be a disposition on the part of the officials to raise the assessment on town property, especially that within the flooded district, higher than ever before. We think that this is wrong, and an unnecessary hardship laid upon those who were heavy losers by the flood and poorly prepared to stand this extra burden.

"Peter Piper Picked a Peck of Picked Peppers" was a line of ailiterative nonsense, that the chil- dren used to say. Nowadays they can practice on the Perfect, Pain less, powerful Properties of Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets. It will impress a fact which will be use- ful to know. These Pellets cure sick headache, bilious attacks, in digestion, constipation and all stomach, liver and bowel troubles. They are tiny, sugar-coated pills, easy to take, and as a laxative, one IS sufficient for dose. No more groans and gripes from the old drastic remedies! Pierce's Purga- tive Pellets are as painless as they are perfect in their effects.

According to the time table of the Southern Pacific railroad, Sal ton is 94 miles from Yuma, and 265 feet below the level of the sea.
The Arizona sentinel., 1891-07-04

The great Colorado desert, formerly
 an ancient sea, lying 94 miles west
 erly from Yuma and 265 feet below
 the level of the sea is evidently trying
 to fill up. On June 22d, Geo. w.
 Durbrow, General Manager of the
 Salt works at Salton noticed that
 there was water on the surface of the
 marsh near the works. This was not
 strange, because it has happened be-
 fore whenever there were heavy rains
 on the edge of the desert.
 Last Saturday the laborers in the
 works were forced to leave them,
 which they did, removing everything
 possible on to higher ground. For
 years whenever the Colorado river
 reached the 9 foot guage at the
 bridge in Yuma it would overflow at a point 27 miles below and set back to the westward from 20 to 30 miles.
 In the high water of '62 and '84 it reached the Laguna and Big Holes, region of Indian Wells. though the volume of water in the overflow was less than one-half of what it is at the present time. The flood of last year cut away the Algodones hills that lined the west bank of the river ten miles below Hall Hanlon's and chang ed it's course so as throw the over flow of the water, off to the westward, 20 miles this side of the old overflow. This gives the surplus water vol ume some ten miles in width, and from three to five feet deep which en- ters the great natural canal system of New river and runs down to Indian Wells with fve-mile current. The Colorado at the point where the water leaves it, is l20 feet above sea level. The Laguna, Big Hole and Mud lakes, are 38 feet below the level of the sea, making descent of l58 feet in the IF miles that the water has to run to reach those points. The great flood of February '9l, filled the Indian Wells region for 40 miles square with water from two to ten feet deep. From that time till the present the water has been pouring into that great Laguna. It is PA feet higher than the Salton salt works, and only 60 miles distant, and is separated from tkem only by bank of loose sand, 9 feet high and nearly third of a mile wide. The water does not sink from the time it | leaves the Colorado near the Ago dones until it reaches Big Hole lake, where it pours down the throats of 1 the great holes of which there are some of them 3 to 8 feet in diameter. The true theory of the rise of the water at Salton is believed to be, that the water which sinks at Big Holes near the rim of the desert, follows the old underground channels and finds its way into the Salton basin. In '62, New river had to be crossed on ferry boats at Indian Wells and at Alamos Muchos stage stations, but the road was passable for the stage coach and for teams. At present man on horseback can- not pass over any ten consecutive miles of the old road from Algodones to Indian wells, a distance of 75 miles. There never was @ ferry at Cooks wells as stated, as the stage road did not cross the river at that point. To travel the old U. s. mail line today, one would need a boat from Algodones to the west bank of the Laguna, west of Indian Wells.

After the S. P. R. R. had finished its ice house and had it nearly half filled, having put in only 20 car loads, out of 47 which it will hold, it seems that the Union Ice Com pany "kicked," as it wishes to control the ice trade. The railroad quietly issues an order that no more ice shall be sold. As a re- suit, Yuma is left without ice, in this the hottest part of the year. It seems that the company might have furnished ice until the Union Ice Company was able to do so.
