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
perity and permanent upbuilding 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 singly, is now
commanding for her full share of atten-
ton and interest abroad among home
seekers and capitalists.
lively competition has sprung up for
the possession of things which hare-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 a sunburst
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 transcontinentaI lines of
railroad across her territory-Arizona has
rather dropped out of pnblic attention,
hut in that time she has been quietly ac-
cumulating a 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

and
Reservoirs


The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC
WATER GATE, to regulate and keep In subjection
the rise of water in canal, due to over-abund-
ant flow, or to sudden rises in the canal owing 70
severe rains or storms. q,
1t is particularly valuable to have such water
Gate placed in lower bank OF canal at such points
along its line Where there are Ravines, Gullies,
ArroyOs, Foot Hills, Buttes, or Tablelands IS any
rains storms bring down at such points surplus
of water that is very dangerous to the banks Of
canal. Tie Waste Gate, however, will prevent
such damage, as it is -r--.
SELF-ACTING AND PERFECT SAFETY VALVE
Relieving the canal, at short intervals, OF its sur
plus water, thus preventing the washing away OF
banks, and causing great damage generally, no
alone to canal, but property owners all along the
line, who may suffer more or less damages there
after for the want of water owing to the damaged
cond ion of canal, and while such repair are being
made Not only is it valuable to relieve canal Of
its surplus water, to prevent damage and sx-
peuse but by its the first cost of canal con-
structon will be materially lessened, the banks
need not be made so high or wide. t.s-s.
The device is extremely simple, and compare
lively inexpensive Its plan of operation Is this:
There is pipe fastened to opening in the
vertical gate, 1. When the body of water rises to
the level of the upper end OF pipe, 2, water runs
freely into the tank g. which is Immediately filed,
thus overbalanCing the weight, 4, which is the
other end of lever, 5, thus forcing open the gate,
which suddenly relieves the canal of large sur
plus of water. When body of water recedes below
acertain level, no more water is admitted TO the
tank; therefore empties itself by a small faucet
opening, 8, at the bottom; this being DONE the
weight overbalances tank, and brings down the
lever, which, being rigid to the swinging gate,
closes it. This operation continues at short in
tervals, so long the body Of water keeps rising
over a certain level The lever, gate, pipe and
tank are all rigid and hinge, or pivot, on hori-
zontal shaft The gate, hume or hex can be made
any height width, or length desired The gate can
be hinged between any bulkhead without box.
The Water Gate is a Perfect Safety Valve, and is
to body of water what a safety valve is to steam.
They be made any size, corresponding with
body of water and size of canal. 1t is secured By

he called me up again and said l had better
