YUMA COUNTY.

A white man first set foot on what is
now Ynma County in I77l. 1t is the
southwest division of the Territory, and
one of the four original counties of the Ter
ritory. Many great reclamation projects are
however on foot, aud in few years ex-
pect to see Yuma County rated as the
richest in the Territory.
The first glimpse the traveller from Cali
picturesque town of Yuma, which is snugly
situated in the embrace of gentle rolling
hills, upon whose crests and sides the
modern homes of our superior civilization
are CROWD ding the adobe dwellings into
eternal oblivion. Yuma is the gateway to
Arizona, the new empire of the West, upon
whose undeveloped riches the eyes of the
ountry are at present turned, and as such,
she is bound to grow and prosper with a
rapidity that at present can hardly be re-
allied. But coupled with her geographic
cal position we find that she is the center
of "a country whose agricultural possibili-
ties are practically unlimited, being sur
rounied by a soil the fertility of which
exceeds that of the delta OF the Nile, and
wanting olly water to become paradise OF
bloom. Billions of gallons of that precious
fluid have annually gone to waste at
Yuma's very doors, but already reaction
is taking place AID many enterprises are
on foot 70 supply the ife-giving waters of
the yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.

acres, now proitles maze productive
by the construction of rrgating bitches and there
is no investment which assures larger or more
permanent returns
The foregoing statements are not exaggerated;
in fact they fall short of doing justice to this won
derful land. Pineapples, dates, almoAds and wal
nuts will do we'll Strawberries, raspberries, black
berries currants gooseberries and all varieties OF
small fruits can be successfully cultivated Indeed,
Yuma County is not only the natural home Of the
citrus and semi-tropical fruits, as almost every
fruit nut plant, grain, grass or vegetable which
eau be produced in either tropic or temperate zone,
will thrive in its rich and fertile soils.
WHY ElMIGRAxTs SHOULD COME TO YUMA
COUNTY.
Because the climate is perfect.
Because the soil is fertile and prolific.
Because land is abundant and cheap.
Because a home can be made with little
labor.
Because so great variety of products
can be grown.
Because the yield is large and the priced
always remunerative.
Because life is a luxury in a land where
the sun shines every day.
Because there are chances for a poor man
which he can never hope to find in older
countries.
Because the country is advancing and
property values are increasing.
Because, unlike Southern California it
does not require small fortune to secure a
piece of land.
Because capital does not block all the av-
enues to wealth, nor crowd the poor man
to the wall.
Because Uncle Sam has yet many farms
in Yuma county waiting for occupants.
Bscause churches, schools, newspapers
and railroads are fast developing the moral
and material clements 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 Uuitcd States that yields the
products of the temperate and semi-tropic
zones.
Because the worker receives 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 OF
tornadoes, earthquakes nor foundations,
snow-storms nor cyclones.
Because the vast and varied resources of
the country are yet to be developed.
Because the wealth of its mines, its farm
ing valleys, and grazing lands, will yet build
up great and prosperous county.
Because man can make livelihood her,
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.
Because the settler need not spend a life
time in telling trees and grubbing out
stumps.
Because vegetation is so rapid that in two
years the home is surrounded by growth
of trees and shrubs which would require
five years to develop in a colder cline.
Because fortunes here await the venture
some, and health welcomes the afflicted.
Because the country has a brilliant future
and you want to be in the "swim"
Because in its pure, dry invigorating air,
epidemic diseases cannot live or terminate
Because its people are generous, liberal,
hOspitable and progressive.

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 fall share of atten-
tion and interest abroad among home
seekers and capitalists.
4 lively competition has sprung up for
the possession of things which have hereto
fore gone a-begging for ownership. There
is a scramble for franchises. Nothing more
surely indicates a 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,
4 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 a fund of substantial wealth
and a 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 Orizona has not to-day
nearly so large Il Mexican population as
Colorado and not above one tenth as much
as New Mexico. "Fitz- Mac" in Denver

freely into the tank g. which is Immediately filed,
