 Since the 6nAl settlement of the Esier and sewerag.s questions and the probability that inside of thirty days the work of construction will be inanguIAted, there gre two chan nsls of sentiment behind these prop ositions that are worthy ol consider Ation and they are tAose of the resi- dent aud non-resident- Linksd with the strides of our municipal push. there are the mining interests and the military matters tO be weighed in the same balance. Combined as they are into A common center. ve are not surprised st the sentiment of the stranger As 1t eShOes from aiar in earnest regard for the future. At hone there Is also like feeling of confidence, and today it may CO., sistently be said of Prescott that it Is going onward and has decidedly . future that was never before it ia a practical sense In brief ws are in the throes of a trinity of useful ness and mining activity, municipal progress and military re- gard. Each aud every one of thsss are travelling to the four winds and with good effect.
 WHAT PAPERS SAY.
 The Phenix Gazette: There is DO kind of doubt remote or distinct iE the minds of trus citizens of Ari- Eona that the rebuilding of the gov erument barracks st Whipple would be of great beneficial interest to the territory. True it is that per hAps Prescott would derive the major benefit and advantageous re- suits tberefrom, but the Gazette maintains that where any portion of the teTritory comes in line direct for profit the rest of the territory de- Tives an indirect and no inconsider- ate interest therefrom. We advo- cate anything and eveD thing that tends to the upbuilding, the ad- vapcement, the increase of advant- ages in Arizona, no matter in what portion, and the Gazette stands ready to pat MT. Frank Murphy if his efOrt with reference to the Whip pie resurrection be successful. Like wise our part of the public thanks for the effort should he not be sue cessful. The GGzstte kkss a good thing when it see ia and foE .hAt reasOn rspro- duces in another column . few ssn- tences from the JoUnxAL- MINER of Tuesday. They are applicable fo this section, and may be read with profit by many of our citizens. Phenix Enterprise: The construc- tion of a sewer system for Prescott and the amount 70 be paid therefor | is S53.550. and bonds to the amount | of S75,000 have been sold to secure the necessary cash. Prescott will thus start out on the proper basis as original owner of both water works sud sewer system. By the way, there is . commendable amount of hustle and good business sense displaped by the people of the mountain citg and PhenIx should be on the alert if she intends to remain the metropO- lis of Arizona.
 PheniK Republican: F. N. Mur- pby of Prescott yesterday yesterday received letter from the secretary | of var asking If the Fort Whippls reservation was large enough to ae- conmodAte a sanitarium as well aa the buildings that are to bs erected for regular post purposes. Mr. ! Murphy has replied that there is i plenty of room st Whipple for c sanitarium, and if at any time more room IS needed it will be supplied. The idea of securing . sanitarium as well as the rebuilding of Whippls is very agreeable to Mr. Murphy, who has devoted much time to the ques- tiOn of the revival of the post.
 AT HOME
 In conversation with many hasvy property holders and others who have a bonahde interest in the vel fare of the town, each express them selves ss hastered over the prospects ahead, and say in short that the place has st last assumed such . permanent feature in home building as to encourage other like work, and they see no reason whatever now bat why the city should not be put down on the map as the center of gigantir operations and assume 4n aspect Of influence and wealth that should have been fostered years ago. ln this connection we talked to Mir. Breed on real estSte matters, ana be willingly opened the door of inform stion an1 stated that in the last fsw days he hsd bargained with more real estate purchasers and heard of more sales to take place than could be accredited to his agency in all the time he had resided hare. It is also said that in a short time . heavy contract will be Let in one bunch for the erection of sixteen cottage which with the private residences nov building and contemplated wilt give to us pretty regard in estimA- tion. In the more elevated sections of this city new homes are going up to still add to the picturesque ap pearance of the city, and as viewed from the reservoir aud other com nlanding sites, are panoramic iB elect We are on the up grade and our mining, military and local con di.ions are doing the pulling up wyud.
