ARIZONA.

Arizona stands at tue threshold of Rn era of wonderful social and industrial de yeiOpment. There can't be dou5t about the fact. The dawn for which she has waited so long is breaking at laat. There is every promise of day of great pros perity and permanent upbuilding just be- fore her. The impulse of q 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 transPiced siugly, is nov commanding for Ter full share of atten- ton and interest abroad among home seekers and capitalists
 4 lively competition has sprung mp for the possession of things which have hereto fore gone a-bagging for ownership. There Is a scramble for franchises, Nothing more surely indicates 6 great industrial awaken. iug than this The rates of interest are falling to moderate figures. Nothing more surely indicates confidence and competition among the money lend rs than this.
 Arizona has reachsI that clinacticel 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 dospondency have suddenly rolled away, and sunhnrst of energizing hope has thrilled the droOp. ing spirits Of the people to greater snd braver endcavor than before.
 For the last twelve years the subsistence of the great Tombstone boom and the com nletion 0f two transcontinental lines O! railroad across her teyritor5 has rati2r dropped out oF public attention, but in tl.at time ste has been quietly ac- cumulating 8 fund vf substantial wealth and a force of moral character which qualify her ROY to rise up and take het destiny ia hor own hands.
 The popula tion of Arizona is Mexican. This is a mistake of great importance frol.i the moral point ot view. There is but one considerable center of Mexican population in th- territory, the city Of Tucson, and eN en there it IS not by any means at pres. ent th@ pradominatjng element IL think it Is ce. taiu that Ari1ona has not to-day nearly so large a Mexican population az Colorado a-3 not above one-tenth as much as New Mexico. >"Fitz- Mnc," in Denver News.

eight of the ten members OF the Board

ted the high favor in which he is held.
The SENTINEL however does not recant
its declaration, that the appointment is

GRENADA MISS, SATURDAY, MARCH e. r8qq
PRIVATE" JOHN ALLENlN MEMPHIS

We see from the Memphis Scimitar
Of the 10th inst that the Hon. Joe
Bailey was at the Peabody Hotel on
that date. The Hon. Joe Bailey is one
OF the finest. brainiest and most elo.
quent young men who have ever been
raised In the State of Mississippi, and
casting his lot with the people Of
another State, he has risen by his own
merit, to be the Democratic leader in
the House Of Representatives. We
quote the following extract from the
scimitar that should be matter of
interest to the people of this State:
congressman J. W. Bailey, Of Texas, the
democratic leader in the house. is likewise q
guest at the Peabody. He is quartered in
room II on the same floor with Mr.. Allen.
They do not speak as they pass.
Mr.. Allen arrived in the city this morning
from Tupelo, Miss, his home. He immedi-
ately engaged an expert stenographer and
was closeted with several Memphians the
best part Of the morning. The business
which brought the congressman to Memphis
Is not known, though it is said he is here on
matters purely outside of the political line.
A Scimitar reporter made several efforts
to interview Congressman Allen, but in each
instance met with failure.
Mr.. Allen was informed that Congressman
Bailey was in the city, but he let fall no re-
mark other than "Ah, in1eed!"
The Hon. Mr.. Allen seems to be
soured generally, and it occurs to US
that his visit to Memphis has proven
a very decided injury. If the "expert
stenographer" and the parties with
whom he was ''closeted the best part of
the morning" helped MIN get up that
speech. he had better have been away
from Memphis.
