YUMA's wild hemp which grows in
such abundance on either side ct the
river and covers an area of not less
than $4,000 acres, is engaging the at,
tention of many of the best capitalists
in New York and London. The ex-
perlments made with the fibre have
been more than satisfactory and such
as to warrant the investment of large
capital at no very distant day.
George d, Roberts, the well,known
capitalist of New York, and Hon.
Murat Masterson of London, have
awakened a deep interest in the
matter by the report of their invasti-
cations last year, when they visited
Yuma and its hemp lands down the
Colorado.

The Australian ballot law will be
in force at our next general election
in November. It would be a good
plan if the Board of Supervisors
would have the voting booths built and
let the voters practice little and be-
come familiar with the plan before
the election takes place. This is
being done in many places. The
booths will cost DO more if built now
than they will in November.
A majority of the states in the
Union have adopted the system and
none so far have renounced it, but all
are we'll pleased with the operation of
the law. 1t is true that at first it is
somewhat intricate, but when once
understood it is well liked and no one
cares to exchange it for any other
method ever adopted.

YUMA COUNTY's FUTURE,

The success which has attended
the efforts of those who are en-
gagged in agriculture and fruit
growing in Yuma County have al
ready been such as to warrant us
in saying that the time is not far
distant when it will rank among
the foremost counties in the south
west, in her productions of fruits
and cereals.
Any section of the country where
six or seven crops of alfalfa hay
can be cut in one season, each crop
not yielding less than two tons per
acre; where the seed can be sown
In October and five crops of hay
cut before the next October: where
wheat ripens in April and is ready
for market in May, where corn is
ripe in June and again in Deem
Der; where melons are ripe from
May till February; where figs which
produce from three to four crops
each year, grapes, apricots, prunes
oranges of delicious sweetness,
lemons of superior size and flavor
with rinds almost as thin as paper
and lines almost as large as the
lemons of other sections; are ready
for market from four to six weeks
earlier. than those produced in any
part Of the country; not only must
come to the front but will maintain
her standing in spite of all that
may be said against it. Yuma
county occupies just this position
today. Soil and water tell and no
where to better advantage than in
our valleys and on our fertile
mesas. Gradually our many diff
ferent irrigation projects are get
ting we'll under way, and some Of
them have already shown what
can be done when the water and
soil are brought together. That
which is being done in a limited
way today, within few months
will be carried to completion on a
magnificent scale, and those who
have crossed the arid plains along
the lines Of the railroads will be
surprised to see the change which
has been wrought by bringing the
abundant supplies of water found
in the Colorado and our other
streams out and upon the excel
lent soils which make up a large
portion of the area Of the county.
Water will make the change. We
have tin vast quantities, and itcan
and will be used to develop the lat
ent resources which lie hidden in the
soil. When this is done Yuma will
stand second to no county in the
Territory in the value Of her agri-
cultural and horticultural pro-
auctions.

IF the present rich discoveries and
wonderful developments 10 the vari-
GUS gold districts in Arizona continue,
the Territory will soon have to be
taken out of the list of silver produc-
ers only and transferred to the "gOld
bugs" side of the ledger.
The fact that so many rich gold
quartz veins have been discovered
within the past few months, and that
the developments in every one Of our
gold producing districts have been so
satisfactory in fact wonderful, places
Yuma county in the ranks of the fore
most gold producing sections of the
Southwest. The Phoenix Republican
well says:
Every day brings new features and
propositions in gold mining to public
notice. In every part of the territory
the excitement alike seems to be to
find gold.
Daily the outlook for the territory
brightens as the rich storehouscs OF
nature are made to give up their pre-
cious treasures, and new finds are re
ported constantly which indicate that
mining is only in its infancy.
The methods of mining and extrac-
ton have been revolutionized in this
territory and many properties hereto
fore considered valueless, are now, on
account of the extensivencss of the de-
posts Of low grade ore, the best pro-
oucers.
A gentleman well informed In min
ing and who has visited nearly every
section of the territory within the past
few months and made tests on hun
dreds OF claims, says che amount Of ore
in the territory running from s. to $50
a ton IS incaicaiable, aud would be

The wonderful rich discoveries in

silver ore which runs up into the hun

in great veins covering large area of
