Toe settlement of st. David, situated
down the San Pedro river about forty
miles from Bisbee, is an example of
what Mormon thrift and industry will
accomplish. That locality, in the
earlier days of settlement, afforded but
limited amount of water for irriRa-

matter for dispute. The people, how
ever, with characteristic energy, set
about to remedy this defect and the
result is the successful completion of
