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 inn
preston as they TRANSFERRED singly, is now
commanding for her a full share of atten-
tiOn and interest abroad among home
seekers and capitalists.
A lively competition has sprung up for
the possession of things which hav thereto
fore gone a-begging for ON nership. 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-
perienced 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 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 AUTHORIZATIONS 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 ow n 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. Mac" in Denver

THECLIMATE OF YUMA.

The climate of Yuma for nine months of
the year has no equal, as we believe; in the
world, and during the remaining three
months of the year, comprising June, July
and August, the heat is not oppressive.
Even though the thermometer in mld-sum-
nler may al times rise above 100, and &C.
casionally even reach ll00, yet, owing to
the Absence of moisture in the air, it is not
oppressive. The atmosphere is pure, light
and balmy. When the mercury marks the
highest extreme of heat, person does not
feel that oppression or debility which is
felt in the Eastern States when the mer-
curry ia ranging from So to 90. The air is
so dry that perspiratIon is absorbed as soon
as it reaches the surface of the body, and
at no time in the summer does the heat
produce any discomfort.

Yuma County is not only the natural home of tn,
citrus and semi-tropicaI fruits, almost every
fruit, nut, plant, grain, grass or vegetable which

Because Uncle Sam has yet many farms
in Yuma county waiting for occupants
Because churches, schools, newspapers
and railroads are fast developing the moral
and material elements of the Territory.
Because good land is becoming scarce, and
if you don't catch on now, your last chance
will soon be gone.
Because the country is one of the few
regions of the Uuited States that yields the
products of the temperate and semi-tropic
zones.
Because the worker receives a fair COM
pensation for his labor, and the 'rustler' has
field for the display of his energy and en-
terprise.
Because there are neither billiards. or
tornadoes, earthquakes nor foundations,
snow-storlns nor cyclones.
Because the vast and varied resources of
the country are yet to be developed.

ing valleys, and grazing lands, will yet build
up great and prosperous county.

with less labor than in any other part Of the
United States.
Because there is health in every breeze,
and strength and vigor under its cloudless
skies.

stumps.
Because vegetation is so rapid that in two
years the home is surrounded by growth !
Of trees and shrubs which would require |
