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- gizing hope is visible everywhere among her people, while the cumulative effect of many things, which made but small inn pression 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 hereto fore gone a-begging 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 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 despondency have suddenly rolled away, and sunburst of energizing hope has thrilled the droop- ing spirits of the people to greater and braver endeavor than before.
 For the last twelve years the subsistence of the great Tombstone boom and the con- pletion of two transcontinental lines of railroad across her territory-Arizona 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 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. It think it is certain that Arizona has not to-day nearly so large 8 Mexican population as Colorado and not above onc-tenth as much as New Mexico. -"FitE- Mac" in Denver News.

Tne above cut illustrates AUTOMATIC WATER GATE, tU regulate ani keep in subjectioR the rise of water in canal, due to Oyer-Sbund ant flow, or to sudden rises in the canal owing to severe rains or storms.
 It is particularly valuable to have such a Water GE5e placed in lower bank of can-l, at such points along it's line Where there Rsvincs, Gullies, ArroyOs Foot Hills, Buttcs, or Tablel#Dd, as any rains storms bring down at such points surplus of water that is very dangerous 10 the banks of canal The Waste Gate, however, will prevent such damage, as 1t Is
 SELF-ACTING AND A PERFECT SAFETY VALVE Relieving the canal at short intervals, of is sur plus water thus preventing the wathing away of banks, and causing great damage generally, no alone to caEal, but property owners all aloEs the line, who may suffer more or less damages there after for the want of water owing to the damaged condi ion of canal, and while such repair being made. Not only is it valuable to relieve canal of it's surplus water, to prevent damage and ex- pense, but by it's use the first cost of canal con- Struction will be materially lessened, as the banks need not be made so high wide.
 The device is extremely simple, and compara- 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, 3, which is immediately filled, thus overbalancing the weight, f. which is the other end of lever, 5, thus forcing open the gate which suddenly relieves the canal of 8 large plus of water. When body of water recedes below a certain level, more water is admitted to the tank; therefore empties itself by a small faucet opening, G. at the bottom; this being done, ths 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 the body of water keeps rising over certain level The lever, gate, pipe and tank all rigid, and hinge, pivot, on a hoIt- zOntal shaft. The gate, Hume or bex can De made any height width, or length desired. The gate san be hinged between any bulkhead without box.
 The Water Gate is Perfect Safety Valve, and fs to body of water what safety valve IS 10 steaD. They can be made any size, corresponding with body of water and size of canal. It is secured by letters patent, and for sale only by
