ARIZONA.

frizona stands at the threshold of an era of wonderful social an1 industrial de- veiopment. 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 nsw and enel 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 a 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 a scramble fer franchises. Nothing nor; surely indicates 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 lend IS than this.
 Arizona has reached that climacticel period which every western state has ex. perienced sometime in it's history when, after long and weary struggle and doubt. with each side of the balance first up and then down, tie clouds of despondency have suddenly rolled away, and sunburst of energizing hope has thrilled the drocp. 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 oi railroad across her territory-Arizona has rather dropped out of public attention, but in that time she has been quietly ac- cumulating fund of substantial wealth and force of moral character which qualify her now to rise ur and take he destiny in her own hands.
