ARIZONA.

Arizona staads at the threshold of ln era of wonderful social and industrial de 1 Velopment. There cant be doubt about l the fact. The dawn for which she ha,
 waited so long is breaking at last There is every promise of a day of great pros perity and permanent upbuidiDg just be- ] fore her. The impulse Of a new and encr- gizing hope is visible everywhere among | her people while the cumulative effect of many things, which made but small i'm pression as they transpired singly, is now commanding for her a full share of atteu, 1 ton and interest abroad among home tseekers and capitalists.
 4 lively competition has sprung ID for the possession of things which ha, e he, etc. fore gone abegging for ownership There Is a 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 d sunhurst 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 transcoutinental lines of railroad across her territor7-Arizona has rather dropped out of public attention, but in that time she has been quietly ac- cumulating fund Of substantial edith and a 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 fron the moral point of view There is but on, considerable center of Mexican population ln 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 eel tain that nrizOna has not to-day nearly so large Mexican population as Colorado and not above one tenth as mucI as New Mexico. "Fitz- Mac," in Denver News.

marines of The dublin" "Carys-
fort" and Hazard" being drawn
up in line, with battery of field
pieces on their right, the king, escort
ed by his own troops, arrived on the
ground. AS The Hawaiian royal
standard was boisted, salute OF
twenty. one guns was fred by the
field battery, after which the nation
al colors were raised over the fort
and on Punchbowl Hill, and saluted
by both forts and the four men-of-
war in port, followed by loud and
long cheering from the assembled
multitude. After the saluting vari-
GUS evolutions were performed by
the marines, after which the king
was escorted 10 bis residence, where
the natives belonging to the late
"Queen's Regiment" came before
him to sue for pardon, and to swear
allegiance to their rightful sover-
eign.
At one o'clock p. m. the king at
tended thanksgiving service in the
Kawaiahao Church, where he adj
dressed the people, informing them
that, as he had hoped, "the life of
the land" had been restored, using
the words which have since been
adopted as III national motto, ia

which John Ii addressed the assem-

In the meantime, he gave his assist

justice was fully approved by the
home government, as, in the words
of Lord Canning, marked by great
propriety and admirable judgment
throughout, and as calculated to
raise the character OF the British
authorities for justice, moderation,
and courtesy Of demeanor, in the
estimation of the natives of those
