The New York Mining aud Engineer.

The New York Mining aud Engineer

there is likely to develop a period OF ae.
tivity, such as the Territory has not ex-
perienced for long time. Most Of the
mining properties mentioned would he

and Prescott, thereby connecting the
famous Salt River valley with the Atch-
ison, Topeka Il Santa Fe railway system.
The Importance of this connection will
be appreciated when it is understood that
along the Atlantic x Pacific railroad aie
unlimited forests Of pine that ut present
find but local market, while the inhab-
itants OF the southern part of the Terri
tory are Obliged 10 procure their lumber
from far off Puget Sound. Moreover, the
coal from the extensive fields in the
northern part OF the Territory will find a
ready market in supplying the numerous
mines along the proposed road, as well
as meeting the large demand in the
southern part of the Territory. In turn,
also, the mining interests of the north
require the agricultural products Of the
Salt River valley, which, II obtained
would be followed by the opening OF
many mines at present undeveloped ow-
Ing to excessive cost of supplies and OF
marketing products.

A French geologist has made q careful
calculation of the amount of solid matter
yearly CARED off into the ocean by the
action OF the rivers of the world and
other causes. He estimates that the re-
duction of the average height OF the sur
face of the solid lands is 0.006 inches
each year. Making allowance for the cor
responding rise in the bed Of the ocean,
and talking no account of the occurrence
Of volcanic and other exceptional phenom-
ena-the general tendency Of which is to
hasten the process OF disintegration--the
the period at which the solid land will
have ceased to exist, and the surface oil
the earth will be covered with water has
been estimated. As. however. that period
is I, 100000 years distant, the prediction
need cause no immediate disquietude.

California will take State action in the
matter of inducing immigration to the
valleys and sunny slopes Of that great and
rich commonwealth. Why notp Every
immigrant 10 every or any portion OF a
State or Territory 10 OF value to that State
or Territory, adds to its wealth, helps TO
produce and consume its products and to
secure the highest development of re-
sources. AS State owning the largest
part of her lands, Arizona would be in
position to invite immigration on an ex-
tended scale. Talk will not do twill
never do it-has never done it. There
must be other inducements. What was
it that caused the great rush Of popula-
ton to the Territory Of Oklahoma and
onto the Sioux lands that were recently
thrown open to settlement? Certainly
not the climate in either case. Certainly
not any hope of extraordinary production
over the alluvial soils Of the Illinois, Wa
bash, Wisconsin, Platt or Missouri val
leys. 1t was the simple proposition that
there were cheap lands to be had in a
country that had a chance to grow in
population and business. Here is the
secret Of successfully settling Arizona and
California. They have mere than ordi-
nary inducements il we go about the mat
ter in a business way. Arizona must own
her lands. put them IN condition TO be
worked or give inducements for some
one else to do so and offer them at rea-
sonable price to the settler, when she can
hope for such development of population
aud business as will amply repay those
who are here and those who may come

"The time for planting orange trees has

seems to be that it should be done in the

the new growth shall have reached two

An amusing story is told of we'll
known Russian oman who went recent
ly to enjoy the sulphur baths at Tifiis. On
u particular morning the countess en-
tered, as usual, one of the bathrooms.
The water had hardly touched her body,
however, when to her horror she began
10 turn black. She was 30 frightenel
upon seeing her reflection in the glass
that she tainted. The attendant, who
was as greatly startled as her mistres,
called for help. The explanation was
simple enough. 1t was discovered that
the countess was accustomed TO paint her
face. hands, arms and neck daily with a
substance containing zinc. On that fatal
day the poor woman had neglected to
remove the "beautifying" coat. The zinc
combined with the sulphur and natrium
of the water, and quickly made an Afri-
can belle out Of the white-skinned bather

fortunate woman resumed her natural

4 Bright and True Future

While the people ot Arizona to-day are
talking OF the necessity uf constructing
storage reservoirs for irrigating purposes,
and apparently realize the full importance
Of restraining the food waters for use in
the rainless season. but very little is be-
ing accomplished towards demonstra-
tion OF their great value. The valleys of
southern Arizona, bordering upon the
mountainous region scanned with can
yons, streams and natural sites for reser-
yoirs seems to have been formed express
ly for the purpose Of utilizing this method
ofp ornament reclamation, and the scheme
is grand one for the display Of engineer
ing skill afGti the profitable investment of
capital. The best, grandest and probably
the most important opportunity for the
erection OF mammoth reservoir is that
upon the Gila river few miles above
Florence, where nature has accomplished
all but the building OF short dam and
placing the supply gates therein. 1t has
even placed the stone and the lime con-
veniently near and still holds out the
most tempting inducement for utilization
upon the adjacent arid plains. The hand
that fashioned that great basin made its
ultimate use still more manifest by giving
gentle slope seaward to the broad and
almost level country that reaches from
the Gila river TO the Mexican boundary
aud extending even to the Colorado river
west. Over this grand tract of arabic
land the water Of the Gila river reservoir
at the Buttes may be made to flow with
a gentle current and be applied to the
land at the will Of the consumer TO fruc-
tify the parched earth. Bnt that mighty
hand has still brighter destiny designed
for this favored locality. IL planted into
great hills that extend from the very
waters edge many miles back into the
lofty mountain ranges, immense seems
OF mineral-of gold, silver, lead and cop
per that will course it's way down 10
the great mills this immense water pow
er will operate at mere nominal cost,
and the whole world will be benefited
by the constant flow OF metallic wealth.
The most Imaginative mind is incapable
OF pieturi, the wonderful results and the
vast benehL 70 mankind the simple con-
s;ruction Of this dam, costing less than
half & million of dollars. 1t would give a
life OF comfort and prosperity 10 more
than million people, while its collateral
productions would reach many millions
more. Just this little lake, but twenty
miles long and two miles wide, by storing
up the winters flood against summers

gold. And this is but one Of the oppor-
tunities Of this character amongst the very
many that exist oil over this last and best
