TERRITORIAL NEWS.
Yuma Times.

The number of convicts now in the prison is 167, with prospects of an In- crease to l90 within month
 The Gila arrived from Needles and way landings Thursday, bringing about 20O0 sacks of lead ore from Castle Dome.
 A lady in the west part of town fed tramp few days ago, and he re- warded her generosity by stealing a pair of shoes.
 No snow fell in sight of Yuma last week, although heavy fall occurred at San Bernardino and other points in southern California.
 A new inspector of the militia of the territory, Major A. R. Chaffee sue. cessor of Capt. McClernand, will make the tour of Arizona next month. He will examine the Yuma company about the 18th. A grand ball will probably be given during his stay here by the young soldiers.

THE NEXT ISSUE.

During the presidential campaign oi last year Candidate Cleveland kept ths silver question carefully out of sight. He ignored the silver declaration of the democratic platform and made his fight on the tariff and glittering generalities The moment he got to the White house he thrust the tariff into the background and trotted out silver-purchase repeal.
 Now it is announced from Washing ton that the tariff must be made the great overshadowing issue in the con- gressional campaign of next fall. MT. Cleveland is said to have decided upon this policy. He wants to keep the silver issue just where he kept 1t year ago-out of sight. He is afraid of it.. He could lash congress into line on the subject with his patronage wEip, but he fears that he cannot control the people in like manner. It will be noticed that the boom of prosperity which it was announced would follow silver-purchase repeal has not yet materislized. Per haps Mir. Cleveland is for once taking essops from facts insteed of from hIs own conceit and opinion. Hence he concludes that the silver issue is dan geroue.
 The republicans will be only too glad to meet him and bis party, if he has any left by next fall, on the tariff issue. They met that issue in Ohio and Iowa few weeks ago, but the results do not seem to have made much impression on MT. Cleveland. He needs a harder blow and he is in fair way to get it. The fear of tariff changes has been mainly responsible for the business prostration of the last six months. The fact will be getting its work in on the industries of the country about next fall, if tariff reform @ be carried through congress, end it will be very stubborn fact indeed. It will be even more stub born than MT. Cleveland.-S. F. Bullet in

King Solomon as a Grover Cleveland.

Some tina ago a CITIZEN cores pondent cl8lmed for silver that it had the sanction of scripture as a money. According to the book of Kings it is otherwise. King Solmon was kind of Grover Cleveland, and depreciated early silver even worse than the modern ruler. Says first Kings, x; 2l:
 And all King Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold; none were of silver; it was nothing accounted of In the days of Solomon"
 The 27th verse, same chapter, further says:
 And the king made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar made he to be as the sycamore trees in the vale, for abundance.

WHAT WALL STREET THINKS
 Oy IT.

Here is a frank, honest statement
 from the Wall Street Daily News,
 November g, that the president and his
 party might read to advantage:
 ''The result of the election proves con-
 clusively that MT. Cleveland's thousand
 million dollar object lesson has turned
 the tide of public opinion against him; it proves that the people of this coun- try believe that the present administra- tioa is incompetent to grasp, handle and legislate on important financial and
 commercial measures; it proses that the democratic party has brought about the most disastrous panic this country has ever seen through its inability, having once called congress together in special session to legislate on silver, to bring it about until the mercantile and financial community was worn out with waiting, and then only by the aid of republicans. That this is what the result of the election indicates, Wall street is sufficiently liberal to believe. That MT. Cleveland and his cabinet are wise enough to see the ruin and wreck they have already wrought, and that they will not plunge the mercantile com munity into further loss and suspense by wholesale tinkering with the tariff. It is conceded on all sides that the government revenues must be increased, but unless MT. Cleveland desires to destroy forever the party to which be professes al le2iance he will go slow and only materially change the duties on the goods clRssed as luxuries. For him at this time to make any revolutionary changes in raw material or anything else that enters into manufacturing is to invite fresh complications among merchants and manufacturers and bring business generally to dead standstill

IT would be difficult to overestimate the value of the university to tbe people of Arizona. Important as IS the work done in the higher education of our youth, there are two lines of economic invest gation which are being constant ly followed for the public benefit. These are ID agriculture and mining. Already many have submitted questions or materials for examination in both these departments, and the correspondence resulting therefrom has been very heavy. Ordinary work involving no great outlay is performed free of charge, and investi- gations of several questions of public interest are undertaken without cost the community. In thIs way, hun dreds of determinations have been made for Arizona citizens and many important questions have been answered by letter and ID bulletins of the agricultural experiment station and of the school of mines.

GOOD ADVICE.

Every patriotic citizen should give his personal effort and influence to increase the circulation of his home paper which teaches the American policy of Protec- tion. It is his duty to aid in this respect in every way possible. After the home paper is taken care of, why not sub- scribe for the AMERICAN ECONOMIST, published by the American Protective Tariff League7 One of its correspon- dents says: "No true American can get along without it. consider it the greatest and truest political teacher in the United States"

THE support of the CITIZEN has beel

THE support of the CITIZEN has been repeatedly asked in the coming city election and the answer has invariably been "yee If you get the republican nomination." More than this we can- not reasonably be asked. The republi- cans will in all probability put "a straight ticket in the field. It will we know, be made up of good men and no pans will we spared to secure their election. One year since the republicans were anxleus to combine with the democrats in g peoples ticket and one was placed in nomination by the citizens in mass meet ing, but these nominations few hot heads among the democracy saw it to ignore and committed that party to a partisan ticket The republicans per force, were compelled to do the same. The result was the lions shore of the offices. Therefore in veiw of the citizens ticket fiasco of year ago, We believe in putting up straight party ticket and either standing or falling on that issue. There is no valid reason why this should not be done.

 ABSOLUTELY PURE

l answer is its wealth of water and soil. Florence IS situated oE the left bank of | the Gila river about twenty eight miles | north of the Southern Pacific railroad. Casa Grande on the railroad is its ship ping station. The stage line of Messrs.
 Stevens & Drew plies between the two places and carries the daily mail. There IS no better line in the country. The
 stock and stages are good, the drivers courteous and obliging, the proprietors pleasant and agreeable gentlemen.
 The country between the railroad and
 the Gila river at this point, is a great
 grass covered plaIn with its declination
 to the south and famous for the fertility
 of it's soil. It Is intersected the entire
 distance by the Florence canal which
 heads in the river few miles east of
 Florence and ends sout of the railroad
 near Arizola, and about five miles south
 east of Casa Grande. The company con-
 trolling the canal having been somewhat
 dlrellct Tn the duties towards it's patrons.
 A receiver was asked for and MT. T. D.
 Hammond was appointed as such by the court from whom releif was sought.
 Immediately ou assuming control the necessary repairs were made and since, to the great joy of the farmers, the canal has been running fall of water. The appointment of Mir. Hammond was both timely and fortunate.
 We do not know the amount of land under cultivation under the canal, but probably it will reach 50,000 acres. This amount will be annually increased tlll the full capacity of the canal has been reached. Ten miles south of Florence lies of the famous Wentworth ranch owned by Messrs. Davis $ Sloan. They have nearly 1000 acres under cultivation. This ranch promises to be an important factor iR the history of PinaI county. Between it and Florence the land is largely under cultivation and some of the finest bred herds of cattle in the territory are to be found in this .direc- tion.
 East of Florence is a great gap in the Gila river known as the "Buttes" Here is one of the finest reservoir sites in the west. The construction of a ! reservoir at thls place is now under con- sideration by capital and an early con- of the work is assured. The building of this reservoir will change the | face of nature and the country between l Florence and the railroad will become | one vast garden. To appreciate these possibilities the country needs.but to be l seen.
 The Santa Fe railroad now building 1 from the Atlantic and Pacific in the | direction of the Salt river valley, will be !! up to the Gils to Florence | aud the agricultural wealth of the valley | be thus brought into rail communication | with the markets of the world. People | seeking homes in Arizona will do we'll | to inquire into the advantages offered. | No place in the territory can offer | greater opportunities to the man who | wishes home for himself and family, | where iP few years be can as the l results of his own labor, sit under his | vine and fig tree and be surrounded by | 'he comforts of plenty.

FINANCIAL OUTLOOK.

Confidence, says Clapp & Co.,, in theil
 weekly letter, breeds credit where courage
 leads the way. Withholding enterprises IS
 rejecting prosperity. To quit exertien
 IS to invite disaster. Losing profit is
 better than losing sale. Better divide
 a dime than lose dollar. To relight a
 furnace Is to start a home mission.
 Spindles and looms in rapid motion
 give credit in the bank psrlor is to get it at the teller's window. A good advertise
 ment generally gets to the bank before the check to pay for it. Doubt is a ghost which runs away from faith. Days works diligently exchang- ed multiply opportunity and preserve the wealth ofa ration.
 The wealth of France is estimated at 5 billion, or about 1850 dollars per capita. The wealth of the United States is estimated at about S1,000 per capita, or 67 million. The annual value Of its product is about 10 billion; about F per cent. of this is paid for transpor- tation of persons and property; all of it is the gift of nature, through the instru- ments of hand and brain. American show aggregate earnings since January are but a small percentage less than in 1892. It is reported there are IF pig iron furnaces ID blast, against 224 last year; that steel rails are selling at S2l against s30 in 1892, and sl2O50 in 1863.
 Banks of England and France hold 72 per cent. of reported European stocks | ,f gold. Gold is at 8 premium in Brazil | md other South American countries, Spain, Italy and Austria. The United States treasury shows less gold for edemption purposes than at any previous period since resumption of pecie payments. A dollar will now ,ractIcally buy more necessities than yer the world over.

Court at Tombstone

Court at Tombstone will probably last into next month. The Booth seduc- tion case was reset, to have been heard yesterday.
 The grand jury found bill against E. s. Booth for felony, early in the week, and his case called for Monday. People from there, says the professor is somewhat low-spirited and helpless, his counsel, Judge Barnes, having withdrawn from the case. Various ru- mors reach us, says the Wilcox Stock man, one to the effect that he will plead guilty and throw himself on the mercy of the court. Mrs. King returned home this morning, having been very sick during the week, while Winnie remains in Tombstone.

Vegetables Grown by White Mon.

Vegetables Grown by White Mon.
 Vegetables that were not grown by Chinese will another year be on sale in Tucson. An eastern man now in town has made arrangements to put in or contract ten acres north of town near the railroad pump, for the growing of vegetables. In addition he will put in a several acres for himself He will sink we'll and use pumping plant for irrigation. He will put on wagons and sell vegetables in Tucson. Most Tucsc- mites are not such lovers of the little brown men with the ''weg-e-ta-a-bles" to patronize them in preference to a white men. Doubtless good business will result.
 He further says: "I want show you Arizona people that you don't know a good thing you do have here. With the proper use of water the land here VII grow nearly anything and 1 pro- pose showing you more about it than you know yourselves.
 Small fruits as berries, will also be grown!
 The new gardens will be cleared of and gotten under way within the next few weeks.

THE republicans of Indiana are booming ex-Presi lent Harrison for standard bearer in the next national campaign. This country never had a better president than Benjamin Har- rison and we are free to believe never will. To contrast the prosperous times of his administration with the present serves but to endear him more closely to the people. His nomination will be equivalent to hls election If the present dull times continues but another year. He would sweep the country by a tremendous majority.

THE free-trade and mugwump pap

THE free-trade and mugwump papers throughout the country naturally are very sore over the staggering blow administered 10 their theories. While rehashing their worn-out, old-time argu- ments they must, indeed, feel depressed over the knowledge that the people don't believe them and have no use for them, as was shown at the polls.
