The Arizona sentinel., 1894-10-20
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 a day of great pros
perity and permanent upbuildiDg just be-
fore her. The impulse of a new and =ner-
giving hope is visible everywhere among
her people. while the cumulative effect of
many things, which made but small i'm
preston as they tr.nspired singly, is now
commanding for her full share of atten-
tion and interest abroad among h Jme-
seekers and capitalists.
4 lively competition has sprung up for
the possession of things which ha, eShereto-
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,
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 Che subsistence
of the great Tombstone boom and the COM
pletion Of two transcontinental lines of
railroad across her territor7 has
rather dropped out of public attention,
hut 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
il 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 a Mexican population as
Colorado and not above one tenth as much
as New Mexico. "Fitz- Mac" in Denver

Resources
Of
Yuma County.
YUMA COUNTY.

Awhile nan first act foot on what is
now Yuma County in III. 1t is the
pouthwest division of the Territory, and
one of the four original counties of the Ter
ritory. Many great reclamation projects are
however on foot, and in few years ex-
pect to see Yuma County rated as the
richest in the Territory.
The first glimpse the traveller from Cali
fornia catches Of Arizona is that of the
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 crowding the adobe dwellings into
eternal oblivion. Yuma is the gateway to
Arizona, the new empire of the West, upon
whose undeyeloped 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
rounded by a soil the fertility of which
exceeds that of the delta OF the Nile, and
wanting oaly 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 and many enterprises are
on foot to supply the life-giving waters Of
the yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.
The Arizona sentinel., 1894-10-20

returns on money invested.

Because it is young, growing county
with an assured future.
because the opportunities for engaging in
manufacturing enterprises are better than in
anv other region of the West.
Because good mining properties can be had
at reasonable figures.
Because there is a demand for additional
facilities for ore reduction.
Because there are vast stretches of rich
soil to be reclaimed by the construction of
irrigating canals.
Because there are large tracts of grass
lands that Can be utilized by the sinking OF
artesian wells.
Because there are many openings in new
country which cannot exist in older COM
munities

the successful cultivation of semi-tropic
fruits are better than in any other part of
the United States.

vancing.
Because Arizona's boom is yet to come

seed which will produce golden harvest.

LANDS AND SOILS.

The lands OF Yuma County comprise the river
Bottoms and valleys and the uplands mesas. The
bottom lands are moister and slightly more fertile,
if, indeed. it is possible to m Ike comparisons
where all are so wonderfully productive and prolific.
The uplands mesas are warmer and, perhaps,
slightly bett for the cultivation of the citrus fruits

The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC.
WATER GATE, to regulate and keep in subjection
the rise of water in canal, due to an over-abund
ant flow, or to sCddenrises in the canal owing 70
severe rains or storms.
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, Gufhes.
ArrOyOs, Foot Hills, Buttes, or TabIeland, IS any
rains or 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
SELF-ACTING AND PERFECT SAFETY VALVE
Relieving the canal, at short inter~as, of its
plus water, thus preventing the shifts 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
eondi ion of canal and while such repair being
made Not only is it valuable to relieve canal Of
its surplus wat;r, to prevent damage and ex-
pense, but by its use the first cost of canal con-
structon will be materially leSsened, the banks
need not be made so high or wide.
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, l.. 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 on the
other end of lever, s. thus forcing open the gate,
which suddenly relieves the canal of a large sur
Dlus of water. When body OF water recedes below
a certain level, no more water is admitted to the
tank therefore empties itself by a small faucet
opening, 6, 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 as the body OF water keeps rising
a certain level The lever, gate, pipe and
tank all rigid, and hinge, or pivot, on hori-
zontal shaft. The gate, fume or hex can be made
any height width, or length desired. The gate can
be hinged between any bulkhead without box

Political News.

WAsurNGToN, Nov 5 Senator
Faulkner, chairman OF the Demo
crate congressional compaign com
mittee, Yesterday made statement
with reference to his recent call upon
the president. at which the political
situation was talked over.
'As chairman of the congressional
committee / called upon The presi-
dent During the interview | con-
veyed to him all the information
had i'm reference to the congressional
contests throughout the country, and
The prospects of the Democratic party
in the various states. Our couvcrsa-
ton was confined to the outlook in
pending congressional elections, and
j found the president, as always, in
previous conversations involving the
interests Of the Democratic party in
the various states, manifestlug the
deepest concern in the information
communicated to him, and in the
hopes / expressed for our success IN
maintaining "A Democratic majority
in the Fifty-fourth congress
"He impressed me in that interview
as having the same earnest and sin-
election. which have always charac-
terized his utterances in the interest
of Democratic principles when they
were on trial before the people of this
country. lIe clearly indicated he was
satisfied with the direction given the
campaign by the congressional com
mittee. in earnestly and intelligently
bringing before the voters the results
of Democratic action in the endeavor
OF congress to redeem Democratic
pledges OF course we all recognize
the fact, because Mr.. Cleveland is one
who does not conceal from the public
h IS muturely formed opinions, that he
had hoped for the passage OF rev
enue measure more in accordance
with his views of the pledges
of the party in its declaration at Chi
cago. But as he has already stated,
wnat has been done will certainly
tighten many tariff burdens that now
rest heavily upon the people, and he
seemed to fully approve the course of
the committee in drawing the con-
trast between the onerous and bur
densome actions of the Mckinley bill
and the reduct ons made by the exist
ing laws; approving fully the presen-
tatou by the committee as shown in
its campaign book as well as its other
literature, the difference in the condi-
tion of the treasury under his former
administration and that of his sue
cessor, Mr.. Harrison, and the deplor-
able condition of the treasury when
turned over TO him by his predecessor.
you can rest assured express my
honest Judgment when | say that
from my conversation with the presi-
dent, no man takes a deeper interest
in the success of the Democratic par
ty in the present campaign and in the
anxiety of the committee to return a
majority to the Fifty-fourth congress
than President Cleveland"
