Arbor Day Proclamation.
TERRITORY OF ARIZONA, 1
 EXECUTIVE OFFICE. {

To the people of Arizona, Greeting: By virtue of the law of the territory of A-i zona the Friday following the first day of Feb rua1y in each year has been designated as Arbor Day, and as such is to be observed as legal holiday and the governor is directed to make proclamation of the same.
 The county school superintendents of each county are required to prescribe course ofexer cises to be observed by the public schools. md it is made the duty of the authorities in every public school to assemble the pupils under their charge and to have and to hold such exercises as shall tend to encourage the planting, protec- tion and preservation of trees and shrubs and the best methods to be adopted to accomplish such results.
 In this arid region of almost perpetual growth, with climate so benign, the possibili- ties of the soil so generous, where plant life under the vitaIizing power of irrigation de- velops so rapidly and comes to such high state of perfection and the desert can be transformed into the vineyard, orchard and forest growth, augmenting rainfall, retarding evaporation and thus creating natural reserv- oirs, this day and it's purposes are most significant.
 Therefore, I, Louis c. Hughes, Governor of the Territory of Arizona, pursuant to law do hereby recommend that
 ARIZONA'S ARBOR DAY, FRIDAY, FEBRU-
 AIRY SIXTH, A. D., 1896, be observed by the people of the Territory as the annual festival of the year, when parents and children alike will participate in the plant ing of trees, vines, shrubs and flowers, in beau tifying school grounds with living monuments of their school days, in the promotion of forest and orchard growth in cultivation; in the adornment of private and public grounds, places and ways, and in such other efforts and undertakings as shall be in harmony with the the character of the day.
 ''He who plants tr3e.
 He plants love,
 Tents of coolness spreading out above, Wayfarers he may not live to see.
 Gifts which grow are best
 Hands that bless are blesI
 Plant, life does the rest. Heaven and earth help him who plants tree, And his work it's own reward shall be- Done at Phoenix, the Capital this 29th day of January, A. D., 1896.

bark, and proceed by rail, a journey Of
six hours, to Constantinople. the troops

him I'm irons. They then informed the
commanding officer of the regiment that
they positively refused to land until they
had received their arrears Of pay.
amounting in the aggregate TO 10000
piastres, and a supply of proper clothing,
instead OF the rags they were wearing.
The Vail Of BrOusa was notified at
once of the demand Of the soldiers, and
that official sent the sum OF $4,000 pias-
tres; but this the troops refused TO ac-
cept, and threatened TO pillage the town
Of Moudania unless they had what they
demanded. As the soldiers were fully
armed and fiercely determined, the Vail,
who was only fifteen miles away, sent
10000 piastres. which he held in reserve
for deposit in the National Treasury. ac-
companying the remittance with a note.
stating that the sum was all that he had
at his disposal: and he also sent sup

posits amount TO about $4,000, and the
