THE ARID LAND REGION.

According to the Irrigation Age the
average prosperity of the arid region
exceeds that Of any other section Of
the United States. There is no other
place where mans living is so sure.
There is no other pace where SO little
is substracted -i0m the total product of
labor b. reason of cop failures or other
disasters. The ard region exhibits
more beauty of landscape, both natural
and acquired, than any other part of the
earth @e know anything about. While
all these things are true, it is also fact
that our people do not make the most of
their possibilities, The Age expects that
tae great growth Of the Lext ten years

THAT RECIPROCITY HUMRUC.

"The reciprocity humbugw what does
the reciprocity humbug" amount to?
1t compels South America to purchase
from this country something in ex-
change for the large amount of pro-
dnce we have been buying from them.
Heretofore they have been sending Us
their sugar, coffee and other articles
10 soma instances making US pay, as III
the case of coffee, aEexport duty for. the
privilege of buying it from them, and
then putting heavy duty on american
flour and other products. This country
was good enough for them to sell coffee
and sugar 10, but in their buying the
favors were all shown to the Europeans.
Reciprocity has changed this. 1t has
compelled them To give Americans fair
play. 1t has been the cause of abolish
ing discriminating duties, and now il
has ope ned the German market to the
American hog, which has been barred
out heretofore. American farm pro-
ducts gain also in the same treaty. This
iUsures an immensely increased market
for American pork ard American corn,
which is not such very bad result of

FOUR HUNDRED MILLIONS OF
SILVER!

The treasury OF the United States had
in the store on the LIST of October, 1891,
1891 1873 silver dollars; Sl5.Si8,620 I'D
the form of subsidiary silver; silver bars
the value of 81, 579, 253; trade dollars
bars, 81, 394, 26O-total, 4G9. l6l ,326, or in
round number, 8l0OOOOOO0. The govern
ment, Furthermore, is increasing this i'm
mense store by buying seven additional
tons of silver every working day in the
year.
Now what does S4OO,OOO,0)O worth of
silver mean? Stated in fig re, or ex
pressed in words, it conveys 10 minds a
ordinarily constituted no definite idea
other than that OF an inccmprehensible
something, endowed with certain pOten-
tialities- possibly for good, possibly for
evil. Yet silver is a physical entity
possessing the properties OF length
braedth, thickness, capacity TO occupy
or fill space, aud weight. Let US apply
these properties to the 54O0,0O0,000, anu
note some of the results of such appli-
cations.
Coined into dollars the product will
weigh over 22,OO0,O00 avoirdupois, or H.
600 net tons; and if its movement is
desirable, will necessitate for SO doing
the use of loco railroad freight cars car
rying eleven tons each, or 20J cars car
rying five tons each. or 800 two-hJne
wagons carrying each two tons.
A cubic inch of pure silver weighs
about 0.36 pound, and a cubic foot about
627 pounds. Hence the S4O0,OOO,0U0, If
melted into a solid ma 5, would occuI y
some 1880 cubic feet, which in turn
would make a solid column Of pure
silver foot square and ABOUT 615 miles
high-the Washington manumert being
$50 feet. Assn ning lead of lgO pounds
per man, an army of 100000 men would
be required TO carry NE mass, and
would make a file, in close order, 50
miles long occupying - nOIrs IN pass
ing a given point" allowing hing for
hats or "rests."
The treasury counts its silver by
weighing it, which is tn part of wisdom,
IN view of the fact that man, counting
at the rate Of 200 dollar pieces per min
ute, steadily for elghJ hours day, San
Days included, would ue kept busy for
considerably over eleven years.
Piled one upon the other, the S40C,-
100000 would attain a height of 675
miles; and placed side by side, they
would carpet room 30 feet vsse anu
nearly q miles long.
Great, however, as is the mass Of
silver at present ia the treasure hou
ses" OF the government, 1t is beng
steadily increased by the purchase Of
81 100000 additional ounces every year,
or at the rate--as before stated-ot
seven tons for every working day of the
year-Harpers Weekly.

ALTHOUGH the National committee
does not meet 10 decide upon the date
and place for holding the next Republi-
can National Convention until the 23I
inst, there are already representa-
tlves of number of cities Ia Washing
ton, working up sentiment TO help them
influence the mem oers OF the National
committee. Chairman Clarkson who Is
here looking after some arrangements
connected with the committee meeting,
says that he has notyeJ made up his mind
IN favor of any city and does not expect
to do so until he hears what all of those
competing have to offer, but he said that
if Chicago is FAMED her newspapers viii
have to promise that all of the cand d
ates shall have fair play in their columns.
which they did not have at the last con
vention there. The fact that Chicago
will be in the turmoil OF getting
ready for the Worlds Fair will, it 10
thought, operate against her getting the
convention, but Senator Cullom, and
others who are looking cut for Chicago's
interests, says that argument is non
sense and will influence nobody. San
Francisco, Omaha, Minneapolis, Chicago
and Tocoma are in the fed for the west,
while Philadelphia and New York ar
representing the east. The president
has expressed no preference, but rumor
has it that he favors either Omaha or
Minneapolis.

Tucson "Jobbsrs Tariff"

Mr.. Brewster Cameron, who went to
Phenix last Sunday with Nessrs Gus A
HUff and Francis j. Heney In behalf OF
the Tucson ''jobber's tariff, as represen
tat vas of our Board of Trade. returned
on this afternoons trim.
Mr.. Cameron states thai the most cor
dial relati ms were Immediately estab-
lIshed between the committees from the
Phenix Chamber Of Commerce and The
Tucson Board OF Trade, respectively,
and that the sole obi oct of the Discus
sion on both sides WIS to determine
what was best for the entire territory.
As soon AS it appeared 10 the business
men of Phenix, from the showing made
oy Mr.. Shepard, assistant general freight
agent Of the Southern Pacific Railroad.
that the repeal of the Tucson '.jobber's
tariff would seriously interfere with
SAs prosperity and development of
southern Arizona, without any cor
responding benefit to particular local
tiles, the Chamber Of Commerce appoiut-
ed committee to request the withdraw
al from the Territorial Board Of railroad
Commissioners, of all complaints which
might be found 20 hsve been made by
citizens of PhenIx uuder a misappre-
hension of the effects of said tariff.
The action of the Ph 3nix Chamber of
Commerce in this mater is high COM
plIment to the public spirit of the mer-
chants and business of the capitol city,
vino unseihshly expressed a preference
20 have the Tucson 'iobber's tariff" re-
main as 1t is, rather than to suffer the
alternative.of having our trade centers
thrown beyond the limits Of the terri
tory which was shown to be the newt
able result of the repeal of the present
tariffs.
Referring TO the undeveloped wealth of
the country surrounding Phenix Mr..
Cameron stated that this visit more
than ever impressed him with the con-
vction that the Salt river valley has
magnificent future as fruit producing
country.

ANTICS OF WATCHES.
Broken Springs Said to Follow q Display
of the Aurora BoreaIis.

Decidedly the watch is very queer
thing. 1t possesses some unaccount-
able peculiarities. Some time ago.
when there had been a succession OF
fine displays Of the aurora borealis il
was estimated that in single night
in New York the mainsprings of not
less than three thousand watches
broke. This estimate is based on actual
inquiries
Fine, sensitive watches are particu-
larly liable to be affected by cleo
trical atmospheric disturbances. Dur
ing the months of June, July and
August, where these phenomena are
most frequent, there are more main
springs broken than during all the
remaining months of the year. They
break in variety of ways, sometimes
swapping into as many as twenty-seven
pieces.
1t is a fact that since the introduc-
ton of the electric light has become SO
general a large number of watches,
some of them very fine ones, have be-
come magnetized. While in this con-
dition they are useless as time-keepers.
This defect used to be considered in
durable, and because of it thousands of
watches have been thrown away, after
much money had been spent on them in
vain attempts to persuade them to
keep good time. Among the methods
resOrted to were washing the parts in
garlic juice, refinishing and passing
them through the fire. But all these
devices were entirely failures, or only
in part effective.
There are occasions when it is a
very serious matter to have your watch
magnetized. The captain of an Allan
tic steamer, before putting to sea on
recent voyage, was invited to inspect
an electric dynamo machine, and
examined its parts closely. Soon after
getting on board the steamer he no
ticed that the compass became strange
ly affected whenever he approached it.
Whether he stood on the right or the
left, or Immediately in front of the
compass, the needle would invariably
point to him. The compass was worse
than useless when he came near it. 1t
was dangerous, and might wreck the
ship. The phenomenon alarmed and
puzzled the captain not a little. At
length he recalled his visit to the dyna-
mo machine, and the true solution of
the eccentric behavior of the needle
flashed upon him His watch had be-
come magnetized. When he removed
it the needle resumed its constancy to
the polar star.
Watches frequently get magnetized
in iron mines or machine shops where
they are ineautiously brought near
swiftly running belts.
1t is well-known fact among horol-
ogists that no watch will keep the
same time with two people The cause
has not yet been definitely ascertained,
but 1T would seem that in some mys-
FERROUS way watch is affected by the
temperament of the wearer. The mere
difference in gait. and move
mcnt between different people is not
sufficient to account for all the varia-
tons that have been observed. Boston

MIsDEMEANoRs are growing less and

there are nearly none, and Tucson is,
SO far as law and order are concerned, n

of thefts, and assaults, fights and minor

TIE following editorial from the Phe
nix Herald shows that hessrs. Gus &.
Hoff, Francis j. Heney and Brewster
Cameron, who represented the Tucson
Board of Trade before the meeting of
the Railroad Commission, IN Pbenix, on
Monday last, discharged a responsible
duty in a manner which will be duly ap-
precisted by every person who has at
heart the welfare of southern Arizona:
Arbitration succeeded admirably in
the matter of the Tucson Jobbers Tariff
today. The Tucson mea frankly pre-
sented their views, with GOODNESS and IN
q most friendly manner. Our merchants
met them.in the same spirit and at the
end OF the discussion decided that it was
best for the territory generally that 10
change be made in railroad freights at
the present time.

THERE In ore feature of the water ar
ticle Of the constitution that deserves
more than passing notice. 1t will &C
count for the wonderful activity of the
Salt river and other canal companies in
securing its adoption in the convention
and ratification by the deceived people.
Section simple confirms ell existing
rights. Section and grants the right
to appropriate the unnappropriated, sur
plus and food waters, and section 6
gives TO legislative control the mode and
manner of acquiring and exercising all
OF said rights. What rights? The
rights of sppropriating the unappro-
pristed, surplus and food waters only.
They could not give future legislature
the power to regulate the mode and
manner Of acquiring and exercising a
right already acquired and being exer-
cised, nor did they intend to. There is
NO unspproprlsted OF surplus water in
the Salt river, and it would require even
the impounding of the food waters to
give it the capacity to supply the appro-
priatious already made. Therefore the
canal corporations Of that valley do
not regard the rights Of future
sppropristors with any degree
OF anxiety, but they do want to
turn an honest penny themselves. The
article does not place existing appropri-
atoms of water under legislative control,
il will be observed, and every consumer
ofIwster in tt at valley will be at the mer>
oy Of the water corporations il Arizona
II admitted as state under this constl-
tuition, and there will be no power in
the Legislature for the people to check
them. They will have the right to
charge any price they choose Ifor water,
and to supply 1t or not. at their pleas
ure. Just imagine such a state OF ar
fairs and see what a leverage for rob-
berry it places into the hands OF these
kind, Christian gentlemen and try to pic
turs the philanthropy Of the sanaritans
with hands in both your pockets. This
il but the plain and simple truth, Bit
Ter az it is. But it servessto show up in
their true light the champions of these
infamous measures that would place a
burden OF woe forever upon the toiling
farmer of Arizona that they may live in
luxurious idleness.-Enterprise.

THOSE who have the pleasure OF al
acquaintance with the senior editor o.
the Silver Belt can richly enjoy the fol
lowing from that most excellent paper:
The Phenix Herald of Nov. 6, repro
duces the following from the Tomb
stone Prospeotor; with an approving in
troductory, because Of the taffy it give:
the Herald, which it swallowed as chill
dren do csstoris, and cries for more:
"If all the republican papers of the
territory were as progressive as the Pie
nix Herald there would be no necessity
for organizing republican clubs to coun-
tersct the evil effects in the party of tine
bsckwood teachings of the CITIZEN, Re
publican, Enterprise, Journal-Miner
and Silver Belt"
When did the Prospector learn that
the Florence Enterprise and Globe Sill.
YER Belt were republican papers? That
they are bsckwoods journals can not be
denied, for the reason that they, as well
as the Herald, are published in Arizona.
This, however, will not be credited by
the Herald, since it lsbors under the be-
lief that Phenix is the world, and so be-
Eeying, invited the senior editor Of the
Belt to "come out of his hole, visit Pheniz
and see the world" which request was not
accepted for the reason that he had read
OF Little Pedlington in England, OF Dob
sons great picture "the grenadier" in
water colors, the skittle ground, and the
mineral spring which takes Its flavor
from scrap leather and iron filings, and
was convinced that q better conception
of the terrsqueos globe could be had
there than in Phenix, inasmuch as blind
Tom, OF Peddlington, can be depended
upon SO q guide.
Such, however, may not be the ca Sc,
as the idea has taken root that Marco
De county is not only IN Arizona, but
the world Of worlds; and is it not? Phe
niciaus will ask, "Have We not the in
sane asylum, the Phenix Herald, the
capital, alfalfa and politicians, ,(curb-
stone and stump who style themselves

sition TO high license and a tax on

WEEKLY CITIZEN.
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 81, 1891

JUDGE @. W. WRIGHT still hangs fire
on the discussion Of the merits of the
constitution with Lawyer Baker. After
keeping a challenge at the head Of the
columns OF the CITIZEN for weeks, and
paving the dirt like an angry bull for a
row, when he gets a chance to quell his
anger, be sidles of and refuses to come
10 the scratch.
The foregoing from the Gazette is
about as near to the truth and fairness
% these constitution shouters can get.
Judge Wright offered to accept any con-
dition Judge Baker saw fit to impose,
provided the same compliment was re-
turned to him either at Phenix or Tenn
Dc. IL that is not fair nothing is fair.
Judge Bakers counter proposition to
b Judge Wright's first proposition was
that Judge Wright should open the de-
bate with one hours talk against the
constitution and he, Judge Baker, would
follow HIM and close in ike time. This
proposition was so manifestly unfair
that no. one thought Judge Wright
would accept it. But he did, and said in
return II will follow you in one hour
in either PheniI or Tempe, as may be
agreed upon" and what is the result
The little fellows are as still as white
mice. II Judge Wright ever speaks in
Phenix or Tempe he will cause such
rafting among the dry bones that has
not been heard since the constitution
shout first went up. But they don't
want him among the farmers OF the Salt
River Valley, they are afraid OF the
truth he shall tell, and do not propose
that he shall tell them if they can avoid
il. The farmers of the Salt River Valley
would vote against the constitution if it
could be explained to them, butthis ex-
PLANTATION will never be given if the con-
stitutional shouters in Phenix can avaid
il. This they cannot do if they get
Judge Wright among them. They know
it, so instead of accepting his fair and
manly proposal, they strive to hide the
truth by such miststements the Gazette
gives circulation to.
