(aloulated. We have done graceful ani

Abbot Kinney said: 1.-THE representation
- Los Angeles ct Phoenix and the visit of
~ delegation to Prescott has been pro-
0un11Vo of good. Business connections
hovo beeu made that will increase distri-
button from Los Angeles. Good feeling
hAs been created, which will bring in .
money return. Los Angeles will take q
greater interest In its neighbor, Arizona,
md Arizona will trade more with Los An
eeses. Great Developments in bringing
water to land in Arizona have been and
oso being made. Arizona trade is becom-
jug very valuable, and this representation
0& Loe Angeles will give our city larger
ohate Of this than it would have had with
out it,
Ii. W. Frank, one of the proprietors of
The London Clothing company, also presi-
dent Of the Merchants' association, said: !:
~Ihis excursion will undoubtedly inauRu-
rate . series OF excursions by the mer-
chants OF Los Angeles, to be made to other
potnts In Arizona, but also to points nearer
home. In addition to the good feeling
such visits create with the people. we visit,
thus increasing our trade, the good fellow
ship that is brought about amongst the
scuonS uueiueetVe9 ID hot only prOlt-
Gblo but enjoyable. Los Angeles is now
grown to such proportions that one half
he merchants do not know the other half.
That was the general remark on this trip.
The people OF Phoenix and Prescott very
much appreciated our visit. I am positive
every one Of our party will have pleasant
memory of the first excursion inaugurated
BY the Merchants' association
John B. Francis, president of the Fiesta
misn6,fs{n = fiOua Af l2QR uni6.
I'VE have been treated like princes
from start to finish. and our party has left
an impression and created friendly senti-
mont toward our city that must prove
very favorable. From Fiesta standpoint
the good results will be very tangible.
Governor Hughes. Chief Justice Baker.
Director General Hatch and other promi-
nent citizens assure me that we may ex-
pect trainloads from the territory during
our celebration. Arizonians are big
whole-souled, hospitable people.
In brief, we have met the enemy. and we
ere theirs.'"
George A. Montgomery of Montgomery
Brothers says that he thinks our trip was
. successful one; first, If for no other rea-
:on than the fact that fifty representative
business men were thrown completely
on each other for society during five days,
and %. became well acquainted with each
other.
'sOur visit to Arizona az a representative
body OF business men at this time was
most auspicious. We were met with open
arms. They are q big hearted people, and
commercially Los Angeles is their nearest
and best located market. Our chief OBJ
3ect in going to Arizona was to advertise
Tho Fiesta de Los Angeles. The citizens of
HE territory. especially Prescott and Phoe.
NIX, treated us most royalty. They are
coming to our Fiesta in large numbers,
md It's our own fault if rs business men
NJ don't make friends and customers of
most of them.''
J. J. Bergin. member of the firm of
lho Los Angeles Soap company, re-
Iayed that every moment of the excursion
