OF COURSE
Arizona Leads the World. and COChiSe
 County Leads Arizona.

Arizona may be sort of blank on the maps and in the minds of Eastern people," said Judge E. NJ. Sanford 10 an Albuquerque Citizen reporter, but I predict that in from three to five years she will furnish the fruits and vegetables for the eastern markets at times when no other country can reach the markets. Perhaps l am enthusiastic, but under my canal l can put muscst grapes on the market by the middle of July that do not ms- ture elsewhere before the middle of August. My second crop of figs are gone before the first crop of figs in California mature. In fact, we pro- duce the finest quality of oranges and lemons with two per cent more specific gravity in the oil than any others in the world. We are from three to eight weeks earlier than any other part of the United States"
 To this we can add that Cochise ce1nty has given abundant evidence that it is capable of raising the very choicest of early apples, pears, peaches, cherries, plums, grapes, apricots, nec- tarines, figs and almonds, and is es- pe;ia!ly adapted to the culture of small fruits and vegetables. Straw berries grown in the mountains have no equal, east or west, in deiicacy oi flavor. Almond trees that have been planted almost by accident, give evil dence that this climate is especially adapted to their culture. Any fruit that can share the same degree oi cold as the fig and palm tree will en- dure our winter in most localities, and our summers are free from the roasting heat that natures oranges anl bananas. The day is not far of when Cochise will be recognized as the banner county of the territory in its agricultural products as it now leads in rich mines and brainy men.

IMPORTANT DECISION.


 SANTA FE-In order to establish precedent in the filing of petitions, the United States Court of Private Land Claims has handed down an opinion that will greatly simplify the work Of attorneys and claimants de- string the settlement of lanc grant utles. The matter came up on de murrer filed by U. $. Attorney m the matter of the Colorado grant, an agricultural grant in Rio Arraba county, and granted by the King of Spsin to Rosa Valdez aud others, June 9, l793. The court sustains the de- murrer ol the U. S. Attorney on two assignnt nts which require petitioners to state the particular form of the grant and its substance and furnish a map of tine land and certified copies of all copies in archives, and also re- quire the designation by plaintiffs and defendants in petitions. Eight as signments in the demurrer are oyer- ruled, setting forth that It is unneces- sary to name in portions all claimants in a grac., nor set out the royal decree of Spain or Mexico, under which the grant is made, nor require more definite description of boundaries than those laid down in the original grant.
 INDIAN CIT zESsHIP.
 WAsHNGToN-Representatiue Peel, who as chairman of the Indian ap- propriation committee, absorbed some radical ideas on the subject of Indian civilization, today introduced bill which will substantially alter the status of the Indian question if it be- comes law. It is to confer citizen- ship upon all Indians who have here tofore or may hereafter attend school for the period of ten years, in whole or in part at the expense of the gov- ernment, or that they have had ten years of industrial training, provided that they have attained the age of 21. Tine bill does not impair their property rights, but-and this is the milk in the cocoanut-thereafter they shall receive no more support from the government in the way of gratuity.
 PACIFIC MAIL,
 reports concerning the Pacific Mail troubles at San Diego have reached Washington, and Congressman Bow CTS is waiting until he can hear from authentic sources exactly what has occurred during the last week, before he takes any further steps. When MT. Bowers gets the information he wants, he will act, and If it proves true that the company continues stubborn, the Postmaster General will be asked to compel the Pacific Mail to comply with the spirit of the law, or the whole matter will be laid before the House, and the House is just now in mood to consider such matters and act upon them summariiy.

The Modest Maidsns Of the Ottoman Em-
piro.
A pleasant side of Turkish girl life is
that which may DO seen any day in
early summer at the Sweet Waters of
Europe or some other favorite resort on
the outskirts Of Constantinople. Tho
family will set out in the morning, and,
spreading their rugs in some field, spend
the day there doing nothing, and APP
parently very contented with the occu-
patton. The women squat on the
ground, with their feet under them, in
that peculiar manner to which they arc
indebted for their handy legs. 1t is not
romantic, but truth compels one to
state that all Turkish girls ulti-
mate1y become bandy-legged; the
fine. well-made women one oc-
casionally meets in STEAMBOAT are
mostly Circassians. A few cakes
and some sweets suffice for both young
and old. A stranger is invariably
struck with the prematurely serious air
that Turkish children wear. Tho elder
girls do not play and run in the manner
that English people expect of healthy
children. They sit or stroll about
quietly and gravely, their yashmaks
loosened and forming snow white
framework, which displays to advan-
tage their complexion. as yet unspoiled
by paint and powder. On the approach
of man, they will hastily draw over
their yashmaks, not so close. however,
that the stranger can not admire their
faces, if he has fancy for Turkish
beauty. which. though in girls and
young women sometimes very attrac-
tive, is too frequently of the half bred
Tartar type, lacking intelligence and
refinement. San Francisco Argonaut

REEp MAS RlonT.


WAsHINOror, March 1.-The United
States Supreme Court handed down .
decision IN the Dingley Worsted act case,
upholding the Reed quorum rule and
holding that the House Of Representa-
tives had right to make such a rule.
The Dingley act was passed through
the action Of Speaker Reed in counting &
quorum when there was quorum pres
emit but not voting.
Ballin. Joseph q Co, importers, at
tackled the act, maintaining that Speak
er Reeds action was in violation of the
Constitution, and that the act was void.
The United States Circuit Court for the
Southern District Of New York decided
in favor Of the importers on this ground,
and the case was carried to the Supreme
Court.
Reed was warmly congratulated by
his colleagues ON the decision of the SUI
preme Court. He said to reporter:
II never had any doubt of the correct
ness of my ruling. l never thought
that there could be at any time, or in
place, Judge of the Supreme Court who
would decide 1t in any other way.

his express command at his right-hand.
Big rounds of beef disappeared before
the sharp knives of the carvers, legs of
mutton and spareribs of pork vanished
like magic, and huge plum buildings
melted in a way that was startling
but still there was enough for every
one and to spare, enough to pack many
a small basket with dainty bits for the
sick and bed-ridden, who could not
come to the feast, but were happy in
the assurance that Dame Barlow would
not forget them. Then, when every
one had eaten his fill, old Thomas
Rows, the patriarch of the laborers,
rose and demanded silence. All knew
what he was going to say, for he had
said the same thing in the same words
ON thirty anniversaries of the happy
day, yet every ear was stretched in ex-
pectancy.

History supplies a great many cases
In which men have changed their ma
tionality very suddenly in order to
serve personal purposes, but no case
is recorded. perhaps, where one has
changed so often as a certain railroad
conductor who serves on a line con-
Meeting France and Germany. This
functionary changes his nationality
twice day.
An American traveller who was rid
ing on the train Between Basic and Bel
fort relates that" shortly after passing
out of Swiss into German territory, he
had occasion to ask the chef of the
train some questions about the Journey,
and put the inquiry in French.
"Nein, neinP' sold the conductor.
"Spreehen Sic Deutsch! (No, no; speak
Germany
The American asked his question in
the best German he could muster, and
received an answer in that language.
Before long the train had traversed
the narrow belt of German territory
and entered France. The traveller agair
had occasion to make an inquiry, and
this time addressed the same conductor
in German.
Monsieur" said the chief of the
train, politely, '.je ne parle\que fran
Gals" Il speak nothing but French.)
As the man had to retrace his steps,
and become German again before he
went to bed, his changes, it is plain,
came much oftensr than those of the
famous vicar of Bray. who changed his
religion half a dozen times under as
many governments Because" as he
