FACTS IN ASTRONOMY.


 THE nearest fixed star is 21 900, ,000, 900 miles from the earth.
 THE moon is without water, and des- titute of an atmosphere.
 SOME of the stars move with veloc- ity of fifty miles second.
 THE fixed stars are suns and each may have its own planetary system. THERE are twenty stars of the first magnitude and seventy of the second. THE fixed star second in distance is 6S, ,0O0, ,00O,0 ,000 of miles from the earth. To THE naked eye 5000 stars are vis- ible; the best telescopes show $500, ,0O0. THE fixed stars are of all colors, violet, blue, green and red predominant ing.
 THE planets Venus and Mars most nearly resemble the earth in climatic conditions.
 THERE are stars whose diameter is greater than that of our whole solar system.
 TIE tail of a comet is believed to be matter similar to that contained in the nebulae.
 THE strongest telescopes bring the moon to an apparent distance of one hundred miles.

A BIG COLONY
Will Settle Under the Rio Verde
 Canal this Fall.

Will Settle Under the Rio Verde
 Canal this Fall.
 A prominet member of the Rio Verde Canal company, gays work will begin in earnest on both canals and reservoirs early in Septemb Der, and before another years, rolls by 2,000 families will settle under this proposed water course.
 Arrangements have been made in Denver for $l 500, ,000 which is thought to be ample for constructing the three big reservoirs and building the canal to a point where water can be placed on 400, ,000 acres of as fine land either for fruit or field crops as can be loud in any land.
 Much of the territory emb mbraced under the Rio Verde is above the frost line from the fact that it lies adjacent to the foot hills.
 The canal will be built largely by the new settlers who are coming from North Dakota and Minnesota, and the work of construction will furnish them employment until the soil can be broken and a water supply furnished for farming purposes.
 It must not be inferred from this that these settlers are penniless, but on the other hand many of them are fairly well off, but are industrious and frugal and wish to be self supporting while developing new homes. They will bring at least $l 100000 cash into the valley or s500 to the family.
 Water rights are selling just as though they were tangible reality in stead of faith in the successful compile tion of vast undertaking, ,$75 GOO having been invested in these rights during the past month.
 The office of the company on Wall street is all hurry and work there, be- ing half dozen draughtsmen, book keepers and other necessary clerical men waiting on customers, answering cor respondence and perfecting plans for the work that begins later in the sea- son.
 Three years have already been spent in engineering, surveying and plating and the happy thought of the promoters has now become the business invest ment of shrewd capital.

RECLAMATION Of Northwestern Yuma
 County. An Expedition Arranged by Phoenix People To Make a Scientific Study of
 the Situation. If Successful Great Mineral and Agricultural Possibilities
 Win Be Opened.

H. R. Leonard, the architect and civil engineer of this city, is fitting up an outfit to make some explorations in the northwestern part of Yuma county seventy miles south of The Needles, Cal, with a view of retaining 950, ,00O acres of arid land in the vicinity of Palomas mountains, and south of Bill Williams fork of the Colorado river.
 The vast plains west of Palo mas noun taing and near the Colorado Indian re- servatien are fertile, only needing wa ter which can be easily abducted from Ben Williams fork. The plan is to construct dam and build reservoir eighteen miles long and two milee wide which can be done according to pre- liminary survey of the situation at . cost of s375, ,000. From this point it will be conducted by canals, one run nlng southwest and the other south- east, watering plains on either side of this short range of mountains and pas. sing as far east as the Granite range. Hanecras plains between these two ranges through which runs the Granite wash, the oldst placer grounds known in ths United States, having been work extensively for more than three hun dred years. As there is no water in that vicinity dry wash processes or screening has been the only feasibly means of working, but even by this process long sacks of precious nuggets and dust are brought out yearly.
 Some think this was one of the Aztec . lo, 1f sufficient evidence is not at hand to substantiate the fact. One thing. how ever, is certain, this lis and ancient gold field, but lack of water has kept it in the back ground. Many old prospectors have famished for water in this locality and but one year in great number affords sufficient water for even few months work.
 The present expedition will consist of two heavy teams and six men and they will be absent about four weeks during which time the feasibility of the plan of reclamation will be fully ascer- tained. If the first or preliminary sur vey and estimate proves to be any where nearly correct great and com paratively unknown land will be opened up for settlement by agriculturists while the mines along the work which are said to be very rich and of vast ex- tent will be worked as soon as water can be procured.
 A prominent capitalist of this city and man from Gi!a Bend are inter ested with MT. Leonard in the enter prise and no trouble is anticipated in raising the necessary funds to carry out the work and open this section which for the greater part has SO far defied ex- ploration.

and the price of new neatly furnished rooms accordingly. Their prices are extremely reasonable considering the fact that no better meal can be obtain ed in the territory.
 c. E. Champie returned yesterday 10 his mines in the Humbug district where he and J. II. Burger have mill running. They have discarded the cyanide process as It did not work sat- isfactorily with their ores. They have plenty of water, rich ore and are doing well this season.
 Charlie Meadows was muelled by Agent Grouse, of Sacaton, 10 give 8 heavy bond for the return of the In dians taken from the Pima reservation to exhibit with the wild west show. Uncle Sam takes more precautions to protect these worthless Indians than for the preservation of American citi- zens.
 The gentleman who have rented the Monihcn corner for drug store are Messrs. Kertz and Wakelin. The for mer is from Pennsylvania, the latter from Wisconsin. They have leased the room for five years and will carry a s15, ,000 stock. The fixtures are to cost s, 3,500. The locality about the building will be illuminated by two colored arc lights, one on Washington street and the other on First avenue.
 A. J. Halbett and David Gloss were yesterday appointed members of the board of education for the Territorial Normal School at Tempe. These gem tlemen are we'll known and their eff ciency for the position is unprecedented. During the next few mon hs much inn portant work will be required of this board and good appointments will be commended by those interested in edu- cation. The third member has not yet been chosen.

Kind Words.

One of the very best men in Sum-
ner county is Henry Harbaugh, the
Peoples candidate for county treas
urer. Those who have ever had deal
ingS with him know his strict integ-
rity and careful, conservative meth
DDS of doing business. Since coming
to Kansas he has established a char
acter of which his neighbOrs are more
than proud. He came here from
Iowa. We are reminded of how
he stood there by a letter which Hen
ry Engle received from there a few
days ago. We copy that portion oft
below which pertains to Mr.. H:
GRACE HILL, Iowa, Sept. Il, 1893.
FRIEND ENGLE:-Henry Harbaugh,
who was here about a month ago on
his way to the Worlds Fair, gave me
an interesting account of the Wash
ingtOn county people in your section,
and thus reminded me of my promise
to write, fulfllment of which has been
long delayed. 1t gives me great
pleasure to learn that Henry has been
nominated by the POpulists as their
candidate for treasurer of your cOun-
ty, and, if the people there are as
well acquainted with him as we are,
there can be no doubt of his election.
You know | am a Staunch Democrat
and no great admirer of the Omaha
platform, but | could cheerfnlly vote
for such man, regardless of his pol
itics. | have known Henry from a
child and have always taken deep
interest in his welfare. His bright
| intelligence as youth and his steady
application to his studies, made him
a favOrite scholar with me, and when
he grew up to manhood, more than
fulfilling the promise of his younger
dayS-industriOus and painstaking,
temperate in his habits, well informed
and above all, of unasSailable integ
rity-I felt that he was indeed man
whom anyone might delight to honor
! Your people will serve themselve:
better than they will him, by making
him your next treasurer.

We notice in the Daily Mail that
the Rock Island led the Santa Fe in
the number of passengers it carried
out OF wellington in the recent he
gira. That is perfectly natural.
There are few POpulists who will pat
ronize the Santa Fe when they can
avoid it. When the Santa Fe became
so indignant with POpulist editors be-
cause they connected that company
with the Republican party last fall,
that they withheld the usual adver-
tising patronage from PopuliSt pa
perS, for which they paid in transpOr-
satiOn, it was to be supposed that
they did not care to receive any more
PopuliSt patronage. Advertising in
Republican papers alone, who are
always their staunch friends in sup.
port of needed legislation the people
had right to draw the inference
that they did not care for patronage
from anyone but Republicans and are
largely accepting the gauntlet lait
down. The VOICE has had little Oc
casiOn to use the Santa Fe roadin il
travels, but we have the satisfaction

who are doing the same thing with
equally effective results. 1t is lit
tie matter to individuals, but it
means a good deal to the company.
The fact is, the Santa FEES political
meddling may account for its delin-
Quency in paying its employees and
the rumOrs that it is threatened with
a receivership. 1t costs something to
even try to be dictator.
The first speech of the campaign
was made in Wellington Tuesday
night. There has been unusual quie-
tude in politics this fall, but, not
withstanding, the audience which
assembled at the court house at that
time showed faces of many citizens
who just begin to think deeply on the
issues before the people. The speak
er, Hon. s. H. Snider, State Com
missioner OF Insurance, made Wig
orOus appeal to the people regardless
of politics. to awaken to the serious
conditions that threaten American
liberties. He gave a graphic descrip-
tiOn of the New York Clearance In
stitutiOn, composing a membership of
20 national banks. and showed how
absolute was its control by the Bank
of England, and how through the
Clearance Institution the Bank Of
England controls the financial policy
of this country. This institution
knew no partisan politics. It's poll
tics was the establishment of the
gold standard, and consequent diff
Guilty of payment of debt. He show
ed the fallacy of Republicans claim
ing to be out Of the control of this
power by the fact that s. per cent.
of the the Republican membership
in congress uninhuenced by Federal
patronage, voted against silver, while
only So per cent. Of the Democratic
party, largely Swayed by gOld-bug
president, who had millions Of offices
to beStOw, could he mustered against
the will of tie people. He held
Grover Cleveland responsible more
than he did the Democratic party.
He closed with a scathing rebuke of
the Republican leaders in cOnjunc-
ton with the railroad corporations
of the state at Topeka last winter.
The audience which half filled the
court room, gave close attention, and
frequently Cheered him. Senator
FOrney being present, was called for
and made an inspiring, fifteen min
ute talk, after which the meeting ad.
jOurned. Judge Snyder spoke to a
large audience at Harper Monday
night, and went from here to Win,

night. He reports the people every.
