HON. J. A. BLACK.

In conversation with Hon. c. D. Pos ton, who by the way is one of the best informed gentlemen in Arizona, and one whose criticism is worth as much, if not more than any other man's in the Terri tory. He paved very great compli- ment to the immigration pamphlet, is- sued by Hon. J. A. Black, late Commis- toner of Immigration. Col. Poston said, that it was the best written, the best adapted to the purpose, and the best published work of the kind that had ever been issued for Arizona. In fact, said he, consider that it is really the only one worthy of the name of an imrnigra- ton work, and it is thorough and fair to- wards each and every portion of the Terri tory. Mir. Black may we'll be proud of his excellent work, when it receives such criticism from Hon. c. D. Poston, who is not only competent Tn literary way to pass judgment, but who is also one of Arizona's oldest settlers, and probably as we'll informed in all that appertains to Arizona, as any one in the Territory.

trict is laid off, and as many people as you can get together organize and issue bonds.
 The anticipated purchaser investi- gates. and finds that the land is Govern ment land, and will remain Government land until actually proved up on, and that no association can prove up on more than 32o acres. He further finds, that no one can live on the land until water is brought to it -- that in fact the assets of the entire district, belong to the United States, and that the action of the district cannot attach any liability on the land, or on any future entryman and only to the present entryman, pro- vided he or his assigns prove up and that the assign, be it an individual or association, cannot prove up on more than 320 acres at time. The assets, in such case are absolutely worth. less, as any one who will stop to think a moment will fully appreciate. This being true, then it follows that the Wright law of California is not adapted to Arizona.
 To settle up our arid lands, capital must go in advance of settlement, and this is impossible under the Wright law. It is impossible for the settler to live on these arid lands in advance oi water. The Wright law pre-supposes the existence of settlers.
 To settle up these arid lands, every in. ducement reasonable and right, should be otfred to capital, and Tn the end this will be the kindest act that can be done the settlers, for the more certain the returns are to capital, the more req. sonable the charge capital makes for its use. Every obstacle thrown in the way of capital being invested on ouI arid lands, costs the settler an addition al higher rate for the money, necessary to make his taking up these arid lands a possibility. Should the Wright law or any one similar, ever be made man datory in this Territory, the arid lands will remain arid lands.

SUGAR seems to have lost its sweet ness in our neighbours mouth. It is not the bounty that cheapens it, oh no, even at our neighbours figures of S15,OOO, ,0O0 in bounties, and at two cents pound, it ought to pay the sugar bills for few families. Notwithstanding that our neighbor does not believe in the tariff, yet he makes an ugly face because of the loss by the Government of i56,000, 900 for want of tariff on sugar, and in the end winds up by doubting that sugar is cheaper, "while sugar may apparently be cheaper" why what has happened to sugar, has it taken sudden raise or has the bounty just struck in on our sweet toothed neighbor.

THE WRIGHT LAW.

The circumstances and conditions of the settlement of California were so en- tirely different from what can reason ably be expected elsewhere, that 8 law that might be fully applicable there might not in any way suit else where.
 Every one remembers that in the first great rush of lS49, large districts were filled by miners and later, more especi- ally Southern California, the boom of a few years ago was town and city build ing. Thousands and tens of thousands of people met in the last boom, to invest in town or city property, or to buy prop erty and divided it up and sell it for town or city lots. In this way Califor- mia became reasonably we'll populated, by people who owned all the land.
 It must not be forgotten that these people did not go to California to raise fruit. Those who started fruit raising, went there with entirely different inten- tions, and it was only when the town and city boom began to break, that the stranded ones had to turn their atten- tion to something else whereby to make living. Fortunate indeed was it for . them that the soil and climate aided them to success, that far exceeded their expectations, and so grand has the fruit success been, that the towns and cities are revived, and there is no place in the United States, that today is more prosperous than Southern California-a desert, with land that would not bring 70 cent an acre, then gorgeous towns and cities-if you believe the plats and maps-but now from it's fruit, it is even more than was pictured by those gorge ous plats and maps.-From the above it can readily be understood that their Irrigation laws, might not suit a new and uninhabited section of the country. If a section of country is req sonably well inhabited, and the inhabi- sants own the land, it becomes very easy question for them to organize themselves into any form of district, or other corporation they see proper to form, and having so organized, to issue bonds based upon their property and for the interest agree to pay, an annual tax per acre.
 The Wright law of California is based upon this condition of facts, and is not applicable to section of country where the land belongs to the United States, and settlers are few and far between.
 In the Salt River Valley it might be !, applied, but even here, within what would probably be the limits of an IT, rigation District, still remains consider able Govern .nent land, and without an act of Congress to legalize it, any tax levied on that land would be void therefore to the extent that Govern ment land exists the Wright law would not apply. Any place else in Arizona. other than the Salt River Valley, the land belonging to the public domain, far exceeds that belonging to private indi- viduals-and in most places, suitable Tor irrigation, tits almost entirely public domain.
 Suppose it is intended to start a colony on a portion of this Government domain, and it is suggested to apply the Wright law, and the Irrigation Dis
