FINAL COUNTY.
Rln. A. J. Doran on the Speak ership and Statehood
 Prospects.
Arizola on the Edge of a Small Boom An Influx of Residents From
 North Dakota.

Hon. A. J. Doran will leave Florenc
 tomorrow for PhoeLix, to attend tn eighteenth legislature as councilman a large. MT. Doran has little to say as f.
 the speakership of the coming session It was tsndered at the last session t. the councl lman at large, MT. Norris but other members may desire it thi year, which MT. Doran would not blsm them for. It is his opinion that littl, radical legI.i8tion will be done this year The coming session will probably gC down iD Arzona history as the "Econ omIcal Eighteenth" MT. Doran expect looping df of expenses at every op portunity, and thinks the unpopular merchants license will go. This meas ure he fought in the fourteenth legisls ture and Helped defeat it there. He ii not in favor of the territory requiring license for any business except gambl ing and lieuor selling. Such lincensing said MT. Doran, should be left with the municipalities. He IS of the opinion that statehood will not to be attained this session of congress. The currency question and other measures of import ance will be given first attention there He does not think the repUb blicau sena- tors will fall over each other, in their eagerness for Arizona's and New Mexi- co.'s statehood. Another backset to our sta :ebocd Is New Mexico. The two will probably go Tn together; and in New deuce O. time with their Legislature. Their laws require that the secretary of the territory shall convene the leglsla- ture aud swear in the members. It seems that republican majority was elected both houses. Yet the secre- tary die attempt to defeat the suffrage of New Mexico and make the legisla- ture democratic. This he tired to effect by swearing in all the democrats a d not eDo1gh republicans to make ma jority ii either houre. Of course the affair is outrageous, and would general " bs their own funeral" In this cas-, howeve:, Arizona is liable to come in for the obsequies referred to. This ac- tion mas resulted in disgraceful squab- ble, the Dews of which has reached Washington. Congress coold not be blamed for refusing to admit territory when such performances are allowed. AriZoni does nothing of the SOFT, but will probably be classed with our neigh Dor and suffer in common with It. With statehood, when it does come, the new legislature would be convened and would codify the laws in keeping with the statehood constitution. Meanwhile the eighteenth legislature will do nothing radical. That will be left for the first legislatures of the state of Arizona.
 AN ARIzoLA BOOM.
 ArZola may take on another boom of the substantial kind shortly. Some very desirable arrivals are there, from Dako ta. They are bona fde, hard working farmers, after land in climate free from the rHors of the wintry Dakotas. They brought along their families, mschlre. ", cows, horses and much more that go to the well being of the farmer. They were recommended to ArizJla by Da- kota gentlemen named Weaver.
 Tb new corners may purchase the lard, in smaller farms than they would have taken up, and better tillsge would be the result. Arizola proper is at present. it is said, in an unsettled state d affairs pending the settlement of some mortgages held there. 1t is will settle there, however.
 TEE BOYS OF CASA GRANDA.
 Casa Grahde had a circus performan ce Sunday n.ght. Several of the young boys of that town have from seeing 8 circns somewhere been imbued with the idea ths nothing is quite so worthy of attainment as to get into the sawdust ring. wear pink tights with gilt spangles on them and contort themselves. Ac- cordingl! they hvve followed out their ambition with faithfulness worthy 8 good cause. It was Sunday night the climax came. They he'd a grand perform ance and went through their coptortions and 'acting" commercially. Tickets were fifteen cents apiece and they must have sold two or three dollars worth. They ara going to buy out Forepaugh with the proceeds, replace the present performers with themselves, and take the road in the spring.
 TUCSON BoY's TUssLE WITH TYPHOID
 FEVER.
 William Powers, a we'll known Tucson boy, is i'll iu Florence, convalesoent from severe attack of typhoid fever. He has been i'll for six weeks. Judging from the looks of the young man he will weigh about fifty pounds. He laughs over it, and says he can play tatto on his ribs. He is court reporter for the second district. One effect of his illn & may be the postponement of the doom of Rogers the train robber. MT. Powers took the evidence, and had not transcribed it prior to his illness. From the appearance of him be will not be able to transnribe it soon enough before the Sth of February. the date when Rogers is sentenced to be hanged, for submission to the governor. In that event the hanging will likely be postpon- ed.
 "A NEW TANGLED PUMP"
 New-fADgled pumps are matter of almost daily occurrence A Florence valley rancher Mir. Marquend, IS out with new pump however that is declar- ed to be worthy of more respect than the average of them. It is declared to be practical tried device, that 1t will work with power of burro, raising water rapidly from adepth of eighteen and probably more-fees, at the rate of five gallons at stroke. A weighted wheels enters prominently into the mechanism of the pump. A millstone IS at present used for that purpose.
