THE HOOKING PROJECT.
Purpose of the Newly Incorporated
Lake Erie Road.

In connection with the incorpo-
ration of the Hooking Valley d
Lake Erie railroad company, men,
toned in the railway department,
IL was learned this afternoon that
the securing of an outlet TO Lake
Erie by any of the present routes
was but secondary consideration
The real purpose was given as a
determination to start anew and
endeavor through II new organiza.
tion to throw off tn" entanglements
of the old. 1t has been known for
some time that the Columbus
Hooking Valley d Athens was eX.
periencing difficulty in floating its
bonds, as Wall street was chary OF
investing as long as there was a
possibility that the action of the
legislature in giving to the com
pany the use of the bernie bank oi
the Ohio canal might be declared
unconstitutional.
Under the organization of new
company to succeed the old, it is
the intention to go before the com
ing legislature and secure legisla
tion which will remove the clouC
on the previous transaction, trans
fer the $4,000 guarantee in the
hands of the state treasurer from
the old company to the new and
enable the projectors to proceed
with the construction of the road
free from the difficulties which
have heretofore enconpassed the

that he stole IL chickens; the fine

NEW WATER WORKS.
A Reservoir to be Located on Either
the Bowen or Kanode Hill.

The DEMOCRAT learns that the Wa
ter Works Trustees are about to ac-
cept the plan of reservoir, with di-
rect pressure. In fact it can almost
be stated positively that this plan
will be carried out.
A reservoir is considered the safest
and best plan by far as there will be
no danger in case the pump gives out
or any of the machinery breaks.
Once the reservoir is filed its supply
can be regulated according to the
amount of water consumed.
The reservoir will be located on
either the Bowen or Kanode hill.
Yesterday the trustees began to
drive wells ON the property on which
the old oil we'll is located, with the
hope of striking a sufficient supply of
water.

ARIZONA.

Arizona stands at the threshold of an
era of wonderful social and industrial de-
velopment. There can't be doubt about
the fact. The dawn for which she has
waited so long is breaking at last. There
is every promise of day of great pros
perlty and permanent upbuildiDg just be-
fore her. The impulse of a new and ener-
giving hope is visible everywhere among
her people. while the cumulative effect of
many things, which made but small i'm
preston as they transpired singlys is now
commanding for her full share of atten-
ton and interest abroad among home
seekers and capitalists.
A lively competition has sprung up for
the possession of things which have hereto
fore gone a-begging for ownership. There
is scramble for franchises. Nothing more
surely indicates great Industrial awaken
ing than this. The rates of interest are
falling to moderate figures. Nothing more
surely indicates confidence and competition
among the money lenders than this
Arizona has reached that climacticer
period which every western state has ex.
perlenced sometime in its history when.
! after long and weary struggle and doubt,
with each side of the balance first up and
then down. the clouds of dependency
have suddenly rolled away, and sunhurst
of energizing hope has thrilled the droop-
ing spirits of the people to greater and
drawer endeavor than before.
For the last twelve years the subsistence
of the great Tombstone boom and the COM
pletion of two transcontinental lines OF
railroad across her territory has
rather dropped out of public attention,
but in that time she has been quietly ac-
cumulating fund of substantial wealth
and force of moral character which
qualify her now to rise up and take her
destiny in her own hands.
The population of Arizona is Mexican.
This is a mistake of great Importance from
the moral point of view. There is but one
considerable center of Mexican population
in the territory, the city of Tucson, and
even there it is not by any means at pres
ent the predominating element. 1t think
it is certain that Arizona has not to-day
nearly so large Mexican population as
Colorado and not above one-tenth as much
as New Mexico, -"Fitz- Mac" in Denver
