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 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-
tion and interest abroad among home
seekers and capitalists
4 lively competition has sprung up for
the possession of things which have thereto.
fore gone a-beggng 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 climacticel
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 territory has
rather dropped out of public attention,
but in that time she has been quietly &C.
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 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 a Mexican population as
Colorado and not above tenth as much
as New Mexico. -"Fitz- Mac" in Denver

The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC
WATER GATE, to regulate and keep in subsection
the rise OF water in canal, due to an oYer-abund-
ant flow, or to sudden rises in the canal owing to
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, GulllesI
ArrOyos, Foot Hills, Buttes, or Tableland, as any
rains or storms bring down at such points surplus
of water that is very dangerous to the banks OF

such damage, as it is

It's surplus water, to prevent damage and ex-
pense, but by its the first cost of canal con-
structiOn will be materially lessened, as 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 an 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, 8, which is Immediately filed,
thus Overbalancing the weight, 4. which is on 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
certain level, no more water is admitted to the
tank; therefore empties itself by small faucet
opening, g. 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
over certain level The lever, gate, pipe and
tank are all rigid, and hinge, or pivot on a hori-
zontal shaft. The gate, hume or bsx can be made
any height width, or length desired: The gate can
be hinged between any bulkhead without box.
