that which follows, and prove this to
your own satisfaction.
Of course, there is a good deal more
than merely less prices to be inquired
into. Style counts for much,-we
think it counts for most. Originality
and novelty are important, and the ele-
ment of exclusiveness, which prevents
your being duplicated at every corner,
is strong feature with us. But take
them all into consideration and look
over these quotations critically. xYou
will note that it is a diverse assortment,
in which prices run from pennies to
dollars. But all those elements are
considered in eaeh, whatever the price.

PASS THIS RESOLUTION!

The following resolution has been

convention to be held this year.
twill also bo Int roduoed Into both
tho Republican and Democratic
county conventions:
Resolved, That our Senators and
Representatives In he General As.
sernbiy be and they are hereby in
structcd to insist upon and to vote
for the repenl OF the infamous gas
frontage and gas consolidation
legislation, openly purchased In
the last General Assemb y Of I'LL

ures subject our people to perpetual
robbery and forever debar our city
from, owning lighting plant Of It's
own.
The "Universal Gas Company" OBJ
tained franchise from the city on the
express stipulation that II would
charge but 90 cents per thousand feet
for gas. The Universal Company Is
now owned by the Trust, and Is fur
nlshlng gas at S1.lO per 1000 feet, in
defiance of law. Its franchise should
be forfeited forthwith.
1t Is a curious fact that the city adj
minlstration and the Gas Trust are
very friendly; there is no doubt of this
fact. The Mayor and the President of
the Trust have often dined together
There Is nothing strange about that,
as they are both genial and clever gen.
tlemen, personally, and 1t Is not to be
wondered at that genial and clever
gentlemen would like to dine together
But what the people do wonder at Is
the fact that while the Ogden Gas
Company offers to furnish gas to North

Pinal county was organized in 1875 from portions of Pima, Maricopa and Yavapai counties, and contains an area of 5.36S square miles, or 3.a35, ,5z0 acres one-third of which could be made productive by U systematic storage of the surplus water now running to waste. Next to Maricopa it is the most inn portant agricultural county inthe Territory lit travevsed from east to west by the Southern Pacific railroad, and a branch of the great Santa Fe system is now approach ing from the north. The objective point of this roaG is q connection with the sonora roaI. of the same system. The Southern Pacific is also building in this direction from Tempe and it is confidently believed that work will not cease until the Deer Creek coal fields are reached and connection is made with another branch of that road rum ming from Bowie to Globe and now complet- ed to Fort Thomas.
 Thus it will be seen that Pinal county is the theater of railroad building at the pres ont time, and inside of year Florence, the county seat. =ill be

In fact, in a residence of sixteen years in Arizona the writer has only known two persons to be overcome by the heat, and they recovered. Their condition, however, was more the result of whisky than heat. The air is so dry here that a registered temperature Of no degrees is not as oppres- sive as 30 degrees in St. Louis or New York. The Signal Service bureau has recognized this fact, and reports the difference between the apparent and sensible temperature to be fulls 30 degrees At nearly all times there is cool in the summer, and outdoor labor Is performed without serious discomfort to either man or beast on the warmest days. Very seldom does the thermometer get be- low the freezing point in winter, and in the gardens of Florence to-day are castor bean plants two years or more old,
