Descriptions of the Southern Pa.
ctfic's Big Locomotives.
The Southern Pacific Company now
owns the two largest locomotives in
America. The dimensions OF the two
new locomotives are enormous, says
the San Francisco Chronicle. They
are equipped with four pairs of drivers,
81 inches in diameter, on which there
rests weight of 10000 pounds. The
total weight of either one OF the en-
gines, without the tender, is 10000
pounds, and the total weight with the
tender, loaded with water and fuel and
in working order, is 100000 pounds.
The boilers are Y inches in diameter,
large enough for full-grown man to
stand erect inside. The steam cylin-
ders are % inches in diameter and
give q 26-inch stroke.
The locomotives are designed for
service on the Tehachapi and Sierra
Nevada mountains in hauling heavy
freight trains, and were constructed
with that particular object in view.
The two new engines have been
built with special regard for both pow
er and speed. The immense weight
on the four pairs OF drivers gives the
locomotives a driving power greatly in
excess of that possessed by any other
locomotives ever made in the country
The drivers are 81 inches in diameter
That exceeds the dimensiQns of the
drivers in large locomotives of the
same class, and a proportionate in
crease of speed is expected to be devel-
oped from them. 1t is expected that
the new engines will enable the com
pany to improve the running time ol
its freight trains over the mountains
though no new time schedule will be
put in effect until it is determined by
actual experiment just what the loco
motives can accomplish.

SALT RIVER VALLEY,

According to the best testimony both printed and spoken, of travellers who have personally seen both countries there is striking resemblance be- tween the Holy Land and the Salt River valley. In Palestinesthe olive and the pomegranate were especially favorite products and in our valley they thrive beyond measure. N
 Our deserts grow a shrub called the crucifxion thorn from it's close resem- blance to a similar shrub which is said to grow in the deserts in the Holy Land, and out of which it is believed

SELBY SIMPLIFYING AND LEAD co, i The attention of mining men is spe- cially directed to the effort now being made by the Selby Smelling and Lead company, of San Francisco, to reach out into this and the neighboring ter ritory for increased shipments of ores. Every inducement which long experi- ence, plenty of capital and a thorough | knowledge of the wants of this section, could suggest to any concern to offer to prospective shippers, the Selby com pany is now offering to Arizona and New Mexico ore shippers. Gold de- posits payable within few hours af- ter being received, and every possible precaution is taken to hasten the as saying and otherwise rush the money for ores into the pockets of the ship pers.. Extensive improvements have recently been made at their melting rooms and assay offices, on Montgom
 cry street, thereby affording facilities for the rapid handling of ores, bull
 lion, etc., never before enjoyed by any concern anywhere Their works at Vallejo Junction, and their extensive
 factory at First and Howard streets,
 San Francisco, are too we'll known to demand more than passing notice, be-
 ing the pioneer establishments of the kind on this coast and the only really first-class and thoroughly equipped in stitutions of this nature anywhere.
 Nearly all the gold and silver dug on
 the Pacific coast, from Alaska to Mex ico, is shipped to them and our readers are asked to carefully consider their
 claims for patronage. Bullion should
 be sent direct to the company at 416

THE WALLER OUTRAGE.


 There is a general feeling on the part of the American people that the state department at Washington has been inexcusably derelict in the matter of the arrest and imprisonment by the French government of John L. Waller, an American citizen and eX-consul from the United States to Madagascar. MT. Waller is now confined in the Marseilles prison under sentence of twenty years of penal servitude on what are claimed to be trumped up charges and exparte evidence. It is positive that MT. Waller was convicted and sentenced by courtmartial procee- dings, and without having an opportu- nity to defend himself against the ac- cusations of French officials in Mada- gascar, who, it is alleged, were exceed ingly envious of certain concessions which MT. Waller had received from the Hovas.
 A case of this kind does not admit of temporizing methods and move ments. No other civilized nation would permit one of it's citizens to be insulted and outraged as MT. Waller has been. Any other nation of the civ ilized world except the United States with Grover Cleveland in the White House, would promptly demand the liberation of a citizen so abused and in addition would exact ample repara- tion for the injustice and indignity to which he had been subjected.
 The duty of this government to in terpose in behalf of MT. Waller is clear and imperative. It must be re- membered that he is allowed neither counsel nor the opportunity to appeal to his own government for protection, notwithstanding the fact that he is an x-United States consul. He was tried by courtmartial, sentenced to twenty years Imprisonment and is now broken in health in consequence of the harsh treatment and close confinement. His family has been sent away from him, his friends are not allowed to con- municate with him, and his valuable property has been confscated. It seems that ordinary humanity and justice, to say nothing of honor and self-respect, would be sufficient to com pei the administration to give some at tention to this case, even if it be only in the intervals between soup fishing and lawn tennis.

the crown of thorns for the Savior at the crucifxion was plaited; and the parallel does not end here but it is said the climate and soil of the two places are similar
 At all events and whether the above be correct or incorrect most of those who have heretofore come to the valley have prospered in health and business. We know of many who came here al most hopeless invalids and who have been restored to sound health and still others who had lost their fortunes else where and who have rapidly regained them here.
 We know of no instance of any per son coming to Arizona with firm pur pose in life to succeed in business who has failed. In the earlier days the pro- gress of development of our resources were slow but sure, and steadily the good work advanced until now with our railroad facilities bringing our people into closer relation with the outside world and the influx of new settlers with means and enterprise to join in the procession of progress, the herculean task of building great state in the great American desert will be accomplished in period of time so brief that the country can hardly req lize it.
 All will prosper together and there need be, and we believe there will be, no feeling of jealousy among our peo- pie. Whatever will benefit one will profit all. Surely this is the land of promise and those who will have the good fortune to come here and cast their lot with us will have cause to be thankful and to bless the land which will at the same time give them both health and wealth and all the happi- ness which mortal man can possess It is a veritable garden of Eden.

ject aimed at that the first effort of those most prominently engaged in the educational work is to secure the means of carrying on a systematic scheme of irrigation rather than to contest for any particular system or locality for the work first to be done. It is a matter of National importance and must become cause for National encouragement
 Of course the success of providing artificial moisture to thousands and hundreds of thousands of acres de- pends entirely upon the selection of a system that will not be too expensive. One system will do for one locality and some other plan for another.
 Experiments have made great ad- vances in the general knowledge on these points in the last few years. The spread of information through these conventions will greatly aid in experimentation.

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 waite0so long is breaking at last. There Is every promise of day of great pros perity and permanent upbuildiDg just be- fore her. The impulse of a new. and ener- gizing hope is visible everyw here among her people. while the cumulative effect of many things, which made but small i'm. pression as they trhnspired singly, is now commanding for her a full share of atten. tlon 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,a 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 climaeticer period which every western state has ex- perlenced sometime in it's history when. after long and weary struggle and doubt, with each side of the balance first up and then down, the clouds of despondencv  have suddenly rolled away, and d sunhurst of energizing hope has thrilled the droop- ing spirits of the people to greater and braver endeaxor than before.
 For the last twelve years the subsistence ot the great Tombstone boom and the conI- pletion of two transcontinental lines of railroad across her territory Arizona, has rather dropped out of pubic 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 mistake of great importance from the moral point of view. There is but one 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 1t Is certain that Arizona has not to-day nearly so large Mexican population as Colorado and not above one.tenth as much | IS New Mexico. o.-"Fitz-M Mac," in Denver | News.
