It's Attractions and Advantages as a
 Place of Residence in Winter.

Whitelaw Reid. owner ald editor of the New York Tribune, who has spent the last two winters in Arizona for the benefit of his health, writes entertainingly and in structively concerning that part of the country. Mir. Reid says:
 So many questions are asked about Ari- zona as place for winter residence, and there appears to be such a deartb of pre- else information among many who are vitaIly interested, that it seems almost q public duty, to set down, in the simplest form, few facts of personal observation.
 WEATHER.
 During a five months residence in Southern Arizona in winter there was but one day when lhe weather made it actually unpleasant for ne to take exercise in the open air at some time or other during the day. Of course there were good many days which a weather observer would de scribe as "cloudy," and some that were "shoYery; but during these five months from No' ember, 1895, to May, I896,) there were only four days when we did not nave brilliant sunshine at some time dur ,ng the day. Even more than Egypt, any, where north of Luxor, Arizona is the laud )f sunshine. As to details:

AIR
ARIZONA.

Arizona stands at the threshold of an era of wonderful social and industrial de- velopment. 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 day of great pros perity and permanent upbuilding just be- fore her. The impulse of a new and ener- gizing hope is visible everywhere among her people, while the cumulative effect of many things, which made but small inn pression as they transpired singly, is now commanding for her full share of atten- ton 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 great industrial awaken ing than this. The rates of interest arc falling to moderate figures. Nothing more surely indicates confidence and competition dLHOuS ClG luOuSJ HSHu to OIdn OulS'
 Arizona has reached that climacticel period which every western state has ex perienced sometime in it's history when after long aud weary struggle and doubt with each side oi the balance first up and then down, the clouds of despondency have suddenly rolled away, and sunhurst of energiziug 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 ha: rather dropped out of public attention but in that time she has been quietly ac cumulating a fund of substantial wealth and a force of moral character which I qualify her now to rise up and take hel destiny in her own hands.
 The population of Arizona is Mexican This is mistake of great importance from the moral point of view. There is but one considerable center of Mexican population in the territory, the city of Tucson, and even there it is not by any means at pres ent the predominating element. It think it is certain that Arizona has not to-day nearly so large a Mexican population as Colorado and not above One-tenth as mucI as New Mexico. -"Fitz- Mac," in Denver News.

extinct oceans. The great Colorado desert was once an inland sea, cut of centuries ana perhaps ages ago from the main ocean, ieaV- ing it's waters to evaporate in this intense heat Throughout all the country border ing the desert, including this section, ilch mines are being constantly discovered, and some of recent location are already produc- ing immense profits. In the neighborhood of Yuma, claims exceedingly rich on the surface are daily being located, and all signs portend a great mining boom for this county which will culminate as early as the coming fall in an iHroad of much capital Experts are arriving every week and mines are being bonded at more than heavy prices. It seems wonderful to believe that all this mn- eral wealth has been lying at our very doors for so many years without taker, but the tendency of prospectors is to go long dis tance off into strange lands rather than to seek for mines in county as old as Yuma County and so accessible. The greater the distance, the hardship, and the danger, the  greater the fascination for the prospector. Distance seems, indeed, to lend enchant- ment to the view.
 So it is that this county is almost virgin field for the mine hunter, and now with the few hundreds searching in its mountains it's mineral secrets are still in effect secrets, for thousands upon thousands might be wander ing through the rock-ribbed fastnesses of our mountain ranges and their presence be almost unknown, so vast is the extent of country
 Recent rich discoveries of gold deposits, particularly in lodges, have given great impetus to mining throughout the county.
 New locations are being constantly made, and all show well upon the surface. The La Fortuna mine, recently put in operation, has 2)-stamp mill running night and day and the production of gold averages $75, ,00C per month. This mine is situated about 90 miles southwest of the village of Yuma.
 Rich gold discoveries have also been made in Castle Dome, Harqua Hala. Centennial Palomas, Pot Holes, and other mining dis tricts, and, although the mining cr look il the county was never better, still lIost ot the silver and lead mines are idle, owing to the low value of these metals.

VALLEYS OF THE COLORADO AND
 CHA.

In the valleys of the Colorado and the Gila rivers there is roem for thousands. It is not too much to say that nowhere within the limits of this broad Union can be found a more desirable region for the making of a home. No laborious clearing of the land is rec aired; it lies almost ready for the blow Trees and shrubbery have so rapid growth that within eighteen months the inmie ant can surround his abode with attractions which would require years to mature in less favored climates. Fruits ripen and are ready for market full month before the California products. The bright sunshine makes life luxury, and the pure dry atmos phere brings health to all wb0 inhale it. For the establishment of colcnies, such as are made in southern California, Arizona pre- sents unrivaled opportunities. Thousands of acres now proftless can be made produc- tive by the construction of irrigating ditches, and there is no investment which assures larger or more permanent returns.
 The statement in this article on Yuma county are not exaggerated; in fact they fall short of doing justice in this wonderful bit of country. Pineapples, dates, almonds and waluuts will do well Strawberries, rasp- berries, blackberries, entrants, gooseberries, and all varieties of small fruits can be suc- cessfully cultivated. Indeed, Yuma County is not only the natural home of the citrus 1 and semitropical fruits, as almost every fruit, nut, plant, grain, grass, or vegetable which caI2 be produced in either tropic of temperate zones will thrive in the rich and fertile soils
 With the bright prospects ahead of the town of Yuma and Yuma County there can be no better investment for capital seeKing large and renumcrative returns than is af- forded here. With matchless climate, where all forms of disease known to the damp and rigorous regions of the east and north are unknown, where the bright sun- shine kisses into bloom and fragrance every form of vegetation, and where the clear days and cool and balmy nights are one long-con- tinued poem of happiness and delight, we can offer to capitalists an ideal field for in vestment and to home seekers veritable paradise ill which to settle.

A white man first set foot on what IS now Yuma County in l77l. It IS the southwest division of the Territory, and one of the four original counties of the Ter ritory. Many great reclamation projects are however on foot, and in a few years ex- pect to See Ylma County rated as the richest in the Territory.
 The first glimpse the traveller from Cali fornia catches of Arizona is that of the pieturesoue 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 o ,rizona. the new empire of the West, upon whose undeyeloped riches the eyes of the co,,ntrv are at present turned, and as such,
 is bcand to grow and prosper with rapidity that at present can hardly be re- slized. But coupled with her geOgraphi- oal nssition we find that she is the center of a country whose agricultural possiblll- ties are practically unlimited, being sur rounded by soil the fertility of which exceeds that of the delta of the Nile, and wanting ealy 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 ot the yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.
