Henry A. Smith, the popular clerk at the
Arsenal, is going around with the air of a
man who has suddenly become possessed of
a million. He also carries with him broad
smile and pocket full of cigars, which he
distributes lavishly among his friends. The
cause of all this is boy and girl, weighing
eight pounds each, which Mrs. Smith pre-
scented him with at $50 A. NJ, yesterday.

Plenty such Land Here.

Under the head, "What is Such Land Worth?r the Los Angeles Times directs attention to an industry that is even more available right here at Arizola than in Southern California, and at a season of the year when the product would be of the greatest value in the markets. The Times says: As an instance of the manner in which apparently insignificant branches of the horticultural industry are being extended. it may be mentioned that exports of celery from Santa Anna at present average one car load or fifteen tons day. This celery is shipped as far away as Minneapolis, although much of it goes to San Francisco. It is comparatively new industry, and promises to grow rapidly from now on. The celery is generally planted be- tween orchard trees, and thus gives a living to farmers until their trees be- gin to bear. Almost every year some new product of this kind comes to the front, and the first thing we hear about it is that it is being shipped east by the train load. There really seems to be no limit to the profitable possibil- ities of agriculture in this section. AS much as hundred dollars is often made from celery, in addition to the profit from the trees upon the same land. Yet there are plenty of eastern people who claim that this land is too dear at the price asked for it-Say from sl0O to s250 per acre. However, what ever these people think, our own peo- pie are beginning to appreciate the possibilities in this line of industry. and there is demand for land upon which such crops can be raised

San Francisco. Dec, 22, 1893. At "a meeting of the Wool Growers and Wool Dealers Protective Associa- tion held in this city this day, resolr- tions were adopted calling a State Convention of all persons interested in Wool and Woolens, to be held in San Francisco, on January 10th, 1894, and the undersigned were appointed com mittee to issue call for the same.
 The object of the convention is to publicly protest against the proposed Wilson Tariff Bill now pending before congress, which threatens the very ex- istence of the wool interest on this coast, to send delegates to Washington to lay before congress the situation, to appeal to our delegation in con gress to vote for our interests and to use all honorable means to leave the present tariff as regards wool and woolens unchanged.
 You are hereby requested and ear nestly urged to attend said Con- vention with all others who are favor able to the cause.
 The hour and place of meeting will be announced in the morning papers of January 10th, 1891.

statehood Notice.

Owing to the fact that the act ad- mitting Arizona passed the house of representatives by very large major ity, and the further fact that the sen ate is undoubtedly in favor of our early admission, We concluded that it was unnecessary to re-convene the statehood convention. This conclusion has been submitted to various of the committees of the convention and they have all concurred therein
 We therefore announce that the meeting of the statehood convention that was to have been held on January II, 1891, is Indefinitely postponed.

A Good Word for the Newspaper.


"At recent business convention Gov
ernor Francis, of Missouri, who is in q
position to know whereof he speaks, paid
tribute to the local newewspaper as fol-
lows Each year the local paper gives
from $500 to $1,000 in fee lines to the
community in which it is located. No
other agency can or will do this. The
editor, in proportion to his means, does
more for his town than any other 10 men,
and in all fairness with men he ought to
be supported-not because yOn like him
or admire his writing, but because the
local paper is the best investment CON-
munity can make, 1t may not be bril-
liautly edited OF crowded with thought,
but financially it IS of moro benefit to the
community than the teacher or preacher.
Understand me. do not mean mentally
or morally, but financially. and yet on the
moral question you will find most of the
local papers on the right side. To day
the editors of the hone papers do the
most for the least money of any people on
the face OF the earth"
There is much truth in the remarks Of
Gov. Francis, and yet there is not a bust
ness more frequently abused than the
local paper. The local editor is expected
to know every visitor that comes to the
town and parties are frequently offended
because he does not mention the names of
visitors at their hemes when they have
failed to inform him Of the fact. An oc-
currenee in this place illustrates forcibly
the above remarks. A business man
talking to group Of gentlemen remarked
that the SHENANDOAH HERALD had re-
Gently taken more names off of the sub
,cription book than they had pat or.
That he knew this to be fact for he
had it straight" This man was very
much deceived for we can harlly believe
le would haye n ade such a statement for
he purpoae of lnjuring another. Ihe;ruth
If the matter is that since last July we
rave added over 300new names to our list,
nave renewed large number and there
rave been few disturbances. Our sub
Icription list is constantly increasing and
here is no secret about it. Oar subscrip-
ion books are open to every advertiser, we
give our bona fde circulation to every one
hat inquiries, and DO not object to any
me examining Our subscription list.
