It is unnecessary to state here that the future prosperity Of Arizona de- bends greatly upon the development of broad and comprehensive system of irrigation hat will require t'ie in- vestment of millions of dollars in con structicu Of storage reservoirs. canals. etc. In the creation of these great wealth producing agencies the com monwealth viii lay down the founda- tion for production of all other varied forms of wealth. and it is public du- ty to foster them and induce inyest- ment of capital therein
 Heretofore the territory has induc- ed the investment of captu in rail- roads within its borders by cxcmpting them from taxation for stated per- iods. and the same indacemeht cam and should be extended Investments in canals and storage reservoirs. Such an enactment woald be of great value in drawing foreign capital into the territory, and would return many times over the temporary loss of rev. enue that might result
 There is another reason why tue policy advocated should be adopted.

WHY rnEY DON'T.

There is still money unexpendcd in
 'the Worlds Fair fund. Why don't some of these fellows who have been doing SO much chattering about the Jack of the exhibits go to work and aid in sending forth some fruit ex- "hibits? It will not cost them a pen my and may give them something useful to do.
 Because the money in the Worlds Fair fund was appropriated for that purpose Had some of those fellows who have been doing so much chatter ing" been employed on the Arizona commission they would have expend- ed the money. and had at Chicago. an exhibit worthy of the territory. The commission was employed to make an exhibit, and was given plenty of money with which to do it. The com missioners cannot now eyade the re- sponsibiIity by having their journal istic apologists tell other people to get up a display fla display can he made at this late day let the commis- sion expend the balance it has on hand in buying fruit and sending it forward.
 One great trouble with this Worlds Fair business in both New Mexico and Arizona, is that in the selection of commissions and committees to get up exhibits there has been little or nojudgment exercised in choosing men of experience and capacity for that kind of work. The writer has several Of them in his minds eve. Men who never saw even first class county fair were appointed to get up exhibits for the greatest fair the world has ever seen They knew nothing of the displays with which they would have to compete, and had no idea of how they should go to work to reach the end desired Having made a failure they now lay back and assert that the people were apathetic. A man hired to dig postholes would be just as well justified in excusing his failure Co do so by pleading the apathy of others or telling his critics to do the job themselves. Money can do anything. and with the money in hand the Arizona commission could have made fine display. had its members possessed the necessary "sabe"
 Since the foregoing was written the statement is published that arrange ments have been perfected for d fruit display from Maricopa county. This has been made up by business men of PheniS.

The International Irrigation Con gress which will convene at Los An geles the 10th ultimo, promises to be one of the most important assem- blages of the present decade. Repre- scntatiyes are expected in attendance from every region in the globe where irrigation is necessary to cultivation. Itis expected thecongress will create plan for the reclamation of the arid regions of the United States. It will be a great work that in it's re- suits will outstrip development that followed construction of the Pa ciiic railroads.

THEIR MERITS.

A press telegram states that num- ber of distinguished New Workers have invited Senator John B. Gordon, one of Lees right hand generals. to deliver a lecture on the closing days of the confederacy, giving personal estimate of Lee and Grant. The lec- ture win doubtless be interesting and will no doubt revive theo old discussion of the respective merits of Grant and Lee as military commanders. This is an old, old question, and both illus trious commanders have many warm advocates Many of Lees admirers go so far as to assert that he was the greatest general of the war on either side.
 Grant himself is on record as having said that he never felt so much appre- hcnsion as when General Joseph E. Johnston commanded the army in his front. Here was confession of the eonqueror of Lee that he found in Johnston greater soldier and com mander.
 In estimating the military charac- ter and capacity of General Lee, in contrast with other commanders, there seems one important factor that has always been omitted by all who have written thereof, and that is his wide knowledge of the personal characteristics of the commanders pitted against him, and nearly all their subOrdinates. In this he enjoy- cd possession of information never be- fore held by a commander, and he ney- CT hesitated to make use of it. As an instance there may be cited an incl dent related by Longstreet in one of the war articles of the Century mag asine. lt was while Lee was follow ing McClellan's retreating army from the rear of Richmond. He ordered movement through the White Oaks l}NHiHp thoh put hic thtAll III lHliill- nent peril. General Longstreet re- monstrated, saving, If Mcclellan should attack Us. he would cut our ar- my in twO and crush the two wings in detallr Yes. was General Lees significant reply but Mcclellan will not attack. And that was the secret nf many of General Lees brilliant and successful strategical movements against Mcclellan He knew McCIel- Ian better than Mcclellan knew hin- self and Lee knew just what to ex- pect from the latter. He knew when to expect him Go strike. and when he would not do 50. And he had this personal equation in all his plans of all his campaigns. and it proited him greatly. As chief of stan to Gen eral Scott in the Mexican war. he had exercised supervision over all the men who came to high commands on both sides of the war of the rebellion. Mcclellan. Meade. Hooker. Sherman. Grant. and Burnside. had all been un- der his command under such circtm- stances that he had learned them well and knew just what was in them.

MUST MOVE.
Prostitutes Served With No.
tees to Quit.
They Were Given Ten Days From
Last Night to Get Beyond
the City Limits.

The city authorities have decided that
the prostitutes must get out of town,
and notice was served on them last
night that all who remain within the
city limits alter ten days will be ar
rested daily and given the usual $40
fine. The women accepted the notice
with indignation but said they would
prepare to move. Ii
There are now only twelve prostitutes
within the city limits though there are
about fifty hanging like scarlet fringe
on the southern border but quite out Of
the councils Jurisdiction until the city
limits are extended.
The method of regulating the prac-
tice OF prostitution in the city has been
a vexing question and several measures
have been discussed. Mayor Cole since
he entered into Office has been stead
lastly in favor of suppressing the bust
ness by system OF frequent fines. He
has opposed the late monthly arrests
on the ground that the system was in
effect a license. He was in favor,
either of suppressing the business or
removing all restrictions from it, that
the city might not DO accused of having
any part in its proceeds. At a late
meeting of the council the question
came up informally and the city attor-
ney was asked if the traffic could lie
licensed. He replied it could be done,
but it was pretty generally understood
that such an ordinance would never re-
ceive the mayors sanction.
Within ten days Phoenix will enjoy
the distinction of being the only town on
the coast and perhaps of being the only
town in the United States OF similar
size that has within it's borders no
prostitutes recognized as such either by
license or by regulation.

OF SIR. o. Hara's work is an originality,
not grotesque or absurd but confined
within lines which bound an ele-
gance OF dction and afford choice only
of sweet pure or lofty sentiment.
