CITRUS FRUITS.

1t is claimed that ever since the orange
carnival at Chicago, there has been re-
newed activity in the sale of citrus fruit
lands of southern California, and that
prospective eastern orange growers have
invested in such lands about $4,000.
The Rsdlands Citrograph says that
''from 1915 TO $500 per acre was paid with
generous water rights included, and
nothing extra for our magnificent scenery
and unequaled climate" We are not in
the least jealous of our neighbours pros
perity to the west OF US, but we are will
ing to wager our last campaign hat that
this will not always be thus. The time
will come when people will know better
than pass by just as fine 'citrus belt"
IS California can boast Of, and free at
that. All that is needed is energy
enough 10 pull up the sage brush and
the application of little water mixed
with sufficient common sense to plant
and properly care for the trees. 1t is no
more an experiment in Arizona than 1t
was dozen years ago in some of the
boasted orange districts of California.
Twenty years ago scarcely any one
dreamed of planting orange or lemon
trees for their commercial value in either
Butte or Placer counties, CAL, and as
late as five years ago the idea was scoffed
at by multitud4- via hr,rD- since h0en
-i~rv-u 70 admit the fallacy of arlier i'm
pressions. A dozen trees may pretty
satisfactorily demonstrate the feasa-
bilIty of producing citrus fruits in al
most any given locality where the slti-
tnde is about uniform and the topogra-
ply of the surrounding country does not
weld too great an influence over the
climate. Orange and lemon trees may
be seen growing thriftily and bearing
abundantly in dooryards of nearly every
village of southern Arizona, admonish-
ing US Of great plantations CT such fruits
that are sure to come in the progress of
time.

contentious about fisheries, seal skins
and shore rights. 1t would abolish all
the custom houses on both sides of the
line, and would open new fields to the
commercial and industrial activity of
both nations. The Canadian provinces
would soon become great and flourish
ing states of the Union. Thus reinforc-
ed in all the sources Of its power and
prosperity, the imperial republic cover
ing the continent from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and from the Gulf OF Mexico
to the Arctic ocean, without an enemy
or a rival in the western hemisphere;
too great in its vast entertainments of
the surrounding oceans TO be attacked
by external foes, would tower like
Colossus among the nations OF the
earth and furnish in the grandeur of its
peaceful and prosperous destiny the

and most splendid civilization ever
known in the history of mankind.

AN URGENT NEED.

This is the quietest season of the year
in Arizona towns, especially for hotel
trade. Few come here during the
three summer months, except on bust
ness, and many whose circumstances
will permit it strike out for the higher
attitudes or the sea coast.
Within month it is usual to expect
material moderation of the heat. The
summer rains which have already made
q transient visit, will reduce the tenn
perature, settle the dust, and cause
the grass to spring up fresh and green
once more. In short, new life viii be
visible everywhere. Our nomads will
return again and with them many
strange faces. This has been the his
tory Of all preceding years, and there is
the best OF reason for predicting an in
crease over the past. What Tucson es-
pecially needs is at least one hotel more
commodious than any We now possess.
This fact is admitted by some of our
best hotel men, who say that for great
or part of the year standing room is at
q premium at dollar night. Had We
such hotel completed as the one in
contemplation, and now sure to be
built, there is no doubt that its immed-
late patronage would amply justify the
outlay of capital without in the least af-
fecting disastrously the business of any
now in existence. 1t is learned from
Judge Stillwell of Tombstone, who re-
cetnly made tour of the southern
states, that had any Of the favorable
districts of southern Arizona a commod-
ious and really suitable and attractive
house for the accommodation OF tour
lists and invalids, and were our superior
spring, fall and winter climate known,
the influx of the transient would be
enormous.
Thousands annually seek the mias-
matte swamps Of Florida in the vain
hope of relief from lung ailments,
while the indisputed fact exists that a
few months inhalation of the pure
ozone of this mild, dry and fogless
cline would restore them back again to
vigorous health.

THE COMING BOOM.

Several new buildings are now in
course Of construction across the South
ern Pacific railroad track, and many
more are in contemplation. There could
not be better time than now to pre-
pare for the building boom that is sure
TO follow the commencement Of the con-
struction of the Santa Cruz water stor-
age works which is only the question of
terial is not now SO scarce, and possibly
not so high, as 1t must be when every
body applies for the same thing at once.
The same remark applies to labor; few
idle men might now be had to clear and
level of the surface preparatory to the
erection OF buildings. So don't hang
around the stores and bsrrooms in other
peoples way, idling your time, when
there is SO much that might be done to
help along the good time coming, Work
is honorable, if pot always desirable, and
it cannot be disputed that it is better to
wear out than to rust out. There is
nothing like taking time by the forelock.
Tucson was not selected a thousand
years ago as the site of great city be-
cause there was no other eligible loca-
ton. There is no reason why our popu-
lstion should not be doubled within the
next twelve months If only knowledge
OF a 1.-THE of the superior advantages We
possess is kept before the people. each

ing worthy enterprises instead Of laying

When Men Wore Earrings

Among civilized nations the wearing
of earrings by men has been by no means
uncommon, as it has been shown that in
early English days some of the most dis
tinguished courtiers bedecked their ears
with very costly specimens. The i'm
mortal Shakespeare is said to have worn
them, and Charles is reputed to have
been the owner of magnificent pair Of
pearl earrings, which he bequeathed to
his daughter the day before he was exc
cuted.
In the South Sea islands the females
and males alike adopt this style Of per
sonal adornment, and even in the wilds
of Africa they are worn by the untutored
savaseS Of both sexes.
AT the present day the only civilized
persons of the male sex who ornament
their ears IN this manner are the gpsies,
the Italians, the French, few sailors of
other foreign nations, aud occasionally
a German, but as master of course
precious few females the world over will
be found without them.-Detroit Free
Press.

TUCSON.

The substantial growth Of any city is
question of resources, and those of
Tucson are something that every citizen
may justly feel proud Of, and cannot be
too highly lauded. They nre here, and
here to stay. Individual enterprise has
done much to build up many of the
cities Of the Pacific Coast; many such
cities were apparently almost entirely
without other resources, and the only
wonder is that in any case they made
such q respectable showing. Success
under such circumstances was the re-
suit OF faith. Enterprise pictured such
future as inspired nope upon the part
of the masses, who were easily led by
the fascination OF speculation and who
overlooked entirely the absence of all
tangible resources, without which the
streets of city become deserted and
it's architecture the monument OF the
folly CT the men who are caught in the
crash. Credulity and the eagerness to
make money quickly make the masses
the easy victims of shrewd real estate
operators, who have nothing in sight
but their own ingenuity and the mex
perience and imprudence of their clients.
Resources are shown on paper only, and
the more deficient they are as matter
of fact, the more fully and shrewdly are
they made to appear upon paper as be-
ing among the unqualified certainUies of
the near future. Happily, the necessity
for such methods in Tucson does not
exist, as is known to all who are familiar
with it's resources. The careful, level
headed business man comes hers, looks
over the field, and satisfies himself that
the half has never been told, nor can it
ever be. The more the stranger ex
amines our resources, the more he wall
be convinced of our future certainties,
and that the Tucson of today is in the
infancy Of her commercial supremacy.

CANADIAN AFFAIRS.

The Conservatives OF Canada are
greatly disturbed over the discussion OF
annexing their country to that Of Uncle
Sam. and scout the idea that such an
alliance is possible. 1t will soon become
apparent to them, however, that the
only way to make their country great
and prosperous is TO give it partner
ship in the greatness and prosperity of
the United States. and the movement
FOR annexation, supported by all sub
stautial considerations OF self-interest,
whatever other considerations may
meet with, is not likely to find any
formidable barrier in the attachment OF
the Canadian people to the British
crown. Annexation is what the progress
siye element in Carsda is graphing for;
IL will be an alliance mutually beneficial.

Mr.. and Mrs. Wings were reading the

said Mrs. Wings casually; ''they read

for, Mr.. Wings"
"How should know, Mrs. Wingsi

ON ADVERTISING.

The advertisers life glows with halo
of perpetual sunshine. His horizon is
ever clear. He perceives a glorious
brightness beyond the threatening
stOrmclouds that terrify the hearts and
paralyze the efforts of the less faithful
His motto is success" He knows NO
such word as fail, and it is, indeed, seldom
that he is known to fail, but on the con-
trary 1T may be said, without the lesst
fear of successful contradiction, that
the most prosperous business man is in
variably the most liberal, and, at the
same time, iudicious advertiser. He
believes in the policy of living and letting
live. He knows and realizes that the
printing press is the most powerful in
vention Of the age, and that it could not
afford to run day withoutsupport; and
further, that this support must come
from the business of the town or sur
rounding country. The genuine adver-
tiser does not seek the uppermost seat
In the synagogue of crookedness; be
does not scott at the proposed enter
prises that are calculated to build up
the town and country upon which he de.
ponds for his support. He does not
meet the stranger at the threshold OF
the city with narrowing tale of bank
ruptcy and ruin to which the town is
surely verging; but he knows more
about his own business than that Of bis
neighbours. He knows his business af-
fairs are on healthy basis and is not
troubled about the future. Judg-
ing the country's outlook from the
vista which his own standpoint affords,
he has a smile and a good word
for ali, and is consequently happy
man. The govt mEy attack him, but
the dyspepsia, never Though he may
have gall be has little bile. Without
the true blue advertiser both the town
and country would indeed, be as dead
as the croaker would have it, and the
greatest misfortune in such case is there
would be no one left with sufficient en-
ergy and enterprise 10 bury them.
Then all hail to the advertiser! He
spends his money freely that the world
may be blessed with the knowledge of
what is for its good, and that he may
10 turn share some gain in harmony
with the upright principle that "a fair
exchange is not robbery" Yes, give us
the advertiser, the full-fedged, double
decked broad guaged pattern, who is
not ashamed Of his name or of what
he may have to sell. Advertising is
where our bread and butter comes from,
but don't think Us an object of charity.
and out of pity insert an advertisement
for week or two to save us from the
poor house. 1t is a square deal. We
will give you your moneys worth. II

Injurious Mixtures.

The iodide of potassium is quite con-
slant ingredient of sarsaparilla mixtures,
which are Wanted to be "blood puri-
fiers," tonics, etc. This agent is harm
less when rightly used, but it is capable
of doing grievous injury. One of its
baneful effects is Inflammation of the
kidneys. If they are weak or deranged
small doses of the iodide are likely to
produce the effect stated, and many per-
sons kidneys are so affected without the
fact being known. Hence, preparations
of the class mentioned should be held az
unsafe for general use.-Hall's Journal

British reception to the German En-

proof that England will be found with
