ARIZONA.

Arizona stands at the threshold of an era of wonderful social and industrial de. Yelopment 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 a day of great pros
 perity and permanent upbuilding just be-
 fore her. The impulse of new and ener-
 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 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 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 climacticer 1 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 a sunhurst
 of cnergizing 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 com. | pletion of two transcontinental lines o1
 railroad across her territory has
 rather dropped out of public attention,
 but in that time she has been quietly ac-
 cumulatiDg a 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 l in the territory, the city of Tucson, and 1 even there it is not by any means at pres
 ent the predominating element. It think l it is cel tain that Arizona has not to-day
 nearly so large a Mexican population as l Colorado and not above one tenth as much 1 as New Mexico. r"Fitz. Mae" in Denver | News.

Tpcson and Phoenix. The first is near the sea level; is the warmost and probably the driest of the three, has the least population, and the smallest provision for visitors. Tucson is the oldest town in the Territory, and, after Santa Fe, perhaps the oldest i'll the Southwest. Its adobe houses give it q Mexican look, aud are thoroughly comfort able, It's newer houses are of handsome building stone, found in the vicinity. The Territorial University is here, and it was formerly the capital. Its elevation being more than double that of Phoenix, it is somewhat cooler, and as there is next to no irrigs ton near it, the air is little dr;er. Phoenix is the centre of the greatest irriga- tion in the Territory. The country for miles around smiles with green fields, cover ed with almost countless herds of cattle, and 1t is everywhere shut iii by low mount ains. It is the Territorial capital, has th- Government Indian School, the Territorial Lpnatis AsyIasn. and other institution !. and ;s the gerer.l iocna for the Territory Like Tucson, 1t has its occasional wind and sand storms perhaps not quite 50 often. At either place visitors who know how to adapt themselves to circumstances can be entirely comfortable, and in each they gill find an intelligent, orderly, enterprising and most hospitable community. They will { find country full of mines, full of rich agricultural lands, abounding in cattle and hor-es, in vineyards and orchards and the beginnings of very successful orange grove' "a country, in fact, as full Of promise foi hardy and adventurous men now as Califor
 nia was in the.fifties. Above all, it hai been their lot to search for health in fal countries, they will revel in the luxury oi being in their own land, among their own countrymen, within easy reach of theil friends by telegraph or rail, and in a climate as good of its kind as any in the world.

YUMA COUNTY.

| white nan first set foot on what is now Yuma County in l77l. It IS tine southwest division of the Territory, and one of the four original counties of the Ter ritsry. Many great reclamation projects are however on foot, and in few years ex- pect to see Yuma County rated as the richest in the Territory.
 The first glimpse the traveller from Cali fornia catches of Arizona is that of the picturesque town of Yuma, which is snugly situated in the embrace of gentle rolling hills, upon whose crests and sides the modern homes of our superior civilization are crowding the adobe dwellings into eternal oblivion. Yuma is the gateway to Arizona, the new empire of the West, upon whose undeyeloped riches the eyes of the country are at present turned, and as such, she is bound to grow and prosper with a rapidity that at present can hardly be re- alized But coupled with her geographi- cal position we find that she is the center ofa country whose agricultural pos8ibili- tics are practically unlimited, being sur rounded by a soil the fertility of which exceeds that of the delta of the Nile, and wanting oaly water to become paradise of bloom. Billions of gallons of that precious fluid have annually gone to waste at Yuma's very doors, but already reaction is taking place and many enterprises are on foot to supply the life-giving waters Of the yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.

aims and deserts. The man who looks fer either the beauty or the seductive excite ment of Monte Carlo will not 6nd it. As 1! little will he find the historic remains or 1 the cosmopolitan attractions of Egypt; nor could he reasonable expect the amusements and luxuries of our own Eastern cities. The people of Arizona are still chiefly busy in the pioneer work of subduing it to the residence and uses of civilized man. But it has two transcontinental lines of railw ay with numerous feeders; it has fast mails, and rival telegraph lines, and is throbbing with the intense life of the splendid West.
 The two principal towns in the south ern portion, chiefly sought for their climatic advantages, are Phoenix and Tucson. Each of them has ten thousand inhabitants or more. TRey have the electric light, tele- phones, trolley cars, plenty of hotels, banks, bookstores, good schools, churches, an occasional theatrical performance, some- times a lecture or :. circus, often a horse race, and, in tie spring. thoroughly curious and interesting Fiesta" For the cest, people must take their amusements with them. Good horses are abundant and cheap, and there are plenty of cow boys-the genuine article-to show what horses can do. The driving for fifteen or twenty miles in almost any direction from Phoenix, is nearly always easy. The roads are apt to be dusty; but there IS one we'll sprinkled drive of six or eight miles; and since the winds are quite regular in their direction, it is rarely difficult to choose a route on which the dust will be largely carried away from you. The unbroken desert itself is often as easy to drive over as an Eastern highway, and the whole valley is paradise for bicyclers, or eques- | trains

Dallas. Texas, January 17.-presldept =,
H. H. Hreen oil the Texas Midland is very
actively engaged perfecting his road to
faris, $50 miles. He is spending all his
time at the quarry, and much of 1t is In
lacking" up his subordinates to greater
energy in putting things IN good condition.
Yesterday he took his private car over
the road and paid off the men in person
leaving Ennis at a. m. and reaching Paris
late In the afternoon. He was accompanied
by i. w. Frat. superintendent; j. T..
Leith, general freight and passenger agent;
b. X. Hanson, master mechanic, w. j.
Newcom, general claim agent; Richard
Boyle, roadmaster; f. NJ. Rake, chief
clerk. and Philip Rauche, Mr.. Green's
private secretary.
AT eAh station and section house. the
train would stop, and while paying oil
the men. Mr.. Green would take special care
to ask them very pointed questions Us to
the rules and other matters pertaining to
the road. The telegraph operators and dis
palchers. as well as engineers and train
men, came in for a very thorough exam
nation. and four or five of them were

sure now that the "old man." as Mr.
Gieen is Familiarity called. means bust
ness,' and II close individual work and
personal attention win bring his road up
to the standard, he means to do it, AS was
remarked by well known ralroader when
recently the Lone Star was on the Southern
Pacific coming from New Orleans. If
there is anything at all in the market new
that Green hasn't got. and money can
buy, then ia like to see 1t trottcd out 4"
Frequently all the heads OF department
were called into consultation. and IT t.
said that on several occasions he clearly
demonstrated his deep and keen knowi-
edge of his business by clearly showing
his knowledge or matters that to some OF
them were quite cloudcd The boys on the
Midland are all agog over the way he has
been going FOR them lately. and the move"
he has compelled them 70 get on
1t is whispered that there will soon be
important news Of extensions OF the Mid
land. as It is known Mr.. Green is figuring
closely on several plans submitted and
making Inquiries as to how soon certain
work could be accomplished. but nothing
definite is ready for publication. He is
likely to stick close TO business until ne
leaves for Chicago. thence Washington and
New York, which will occur In a few
weeks
