0 o FEW YORK, November 9.-It Is
 IMI said in Wall street that George
 I'M W. Perkins has again proven N-@ - himself a Napoleon of insur- ance and is today the master of the situ- ation in the international affairs of the New York Life Insurance Company. When Mir. Perkins, vice president of the New York Life. became a junior member of the great banking house of J. P. Morgan & Colt was commonly stated, in fact 1t was published. that MT. Perkins had been guaranteed an annual profit of $780, GOO. Although MT. Perkins Is doubtless a very valuable man to any great firm or corporation, his record as a marvellous insurance man and manager indicated an experience in affairs wholly foreign to the business of reorganizing railroads and underwriting railroad bonds. Hence his employment by MT. Morgan. the shrewdest man of finance in the world, occasioned some criticism and wonder ment.
 John A. Mccall, the able and experi- enced president of the New York Life Insurance Company, was evidently sur prised at the brilliant success of his young associate. Indeed, 1t appears he did not wholly like the arrangement be- tween MT. Perkins and MT. Morgan. He Is quoted as having said: we don't be- lieve it right that an officer of a firm making such enormous investments as ours should be connected with any bank ing firm handling investments" It Is evident MT. Mccall regarded the firm nf than he does the Central National Bank the National City Bank, the National Se- curity Company and other financial in- stitutions with which he is himself prom inently identified Or. again, it may be a case of what is sauce for the presi- dent is not sauce for the vice president.
 have heard for many years that Pres fdent Mccall highly esteemed the great abilities of Mr. George W. Perkins He held this progressive young mans abfli- ties in such high esteem that he was a1- most afraid of him. To be sure Mr. Mo- calls salary as president of the New York Life Insurance Company Is s660OO a year, and MT. Perkins $26,o00. which Is in the favor of Mir. Mccall on the published salary list by $4OOo0 But I am told that MT. Perkins received a slight percentage on all the business written, which would more than bridge over any glaring dif- ferenoes in salary.
 When, some years ago. 1t was necessa- ry for the management of the New York Life Insurance Company to secure votes at the annual meeting. proxies had to be secured from policy holders all over the world. These were obtained by MT. Per- kins who was then Superintendent ot agencies. He of course was In direct and easy contact with all the managers and agents. so he secured the proxies in the names of John A. McCaA, William L. Strong and George W. Perkins.
 MT. Perkins has always continued Co be the insurance man. or "agency man" of the New York Life. His great ability, enormous vitality and unt1ring energy was the force that impelled the New York Life l.,ward from the slough the Beers administration left 1t in to its now towering height of success It is now stated that to protect himself and pro

The Arid Reeion.

The arid region of this country is larger than the entire area of some of the nations of the earth. It includes portions of Montana, Wyoming, Colo rado. Utah, Nevada: Arizona and New Mexico, and smaller portions of North and South Dakota, Nevada, Kansas and Texas, hundreds of thousands of acres in California, two-thirds of Ore gon, one-third of Washington, and al- most all of Idaho-altogether a total of over a million square miles, enough in fact to accommodate half the peo- pie of the United States when the
 land is made productive. To allow all this splendid country to go to waste would be contrary to the spirit of a practical nation. All this arid land needs is irrigation. Already a large part of it has been converted to fer tility by the artificial supply of water. Gradually and strongly the experts of the government have urged upon con- gre>s q policy of-assis,ance which will convert many of these acres into fer tile fields.-Albnquerque Citizeu.

PHOENIX is preparing more adver- tising for that place which will be circulated in the east during the sum. mer months. The board of trade of that city have just issued neat pamphlet entitled. ''The Salt River Valley. Its Attractions for the Capital ist, the Invalid and the Immigrant.' ' The people of that enterprising place believe in keeping everlastingly at it, consequently it is the point which at- tracts all the visitors to the territory. It might be we'll for other towns in Arizona to follow the example of Phoe- nix in making their resources and attractions known outside of the ter ritOry. Flagstaff for instance.

IT has been held by the Interior department that the Oregon Short Line has the right to the disputed grade in Nevada, and MT. Clark and his associates will, if they continue their road, have to do so on another route. If Senator Clark and his as- sociates desire to build railroad it might be we'll for them to go little further east and fill in the gap that exists between the western terminal of the Rock Island and Missouri Pacific roads and the Pacific coast. These roads are now building through New Mexico and both can be reached at some point near Santa Fe, and from that point to Los Angeles a much shorter route can be had than by any of the present roads. It would secure for Mir. Clark the outlet for his mines at Jerome that he has so long been looking for.

A Fast Train.

The Southern Pacific officials have completed all necessary arrange ments to carry President Mckinley and his party from Yuma to Los An geles at the rate of sixty-five miles an hour. This company never under takes to do anything that it fails to accomplish, and the distinguished party will cross the California desert at this tremendous rate of speed. The president, however, has become ac- custOmed to running at fast rate of speed, as is shown by the manner in which he carried of the hOnOrs of two presidential races. It is stated that he never lost race in his life.- Gazette.

THE new school law sets aside the first Friday after the last day in April as Arbor day in the four northern counties of Arizona. The day was not observed here. The idea of having the school children plant trees is an ex- cellent one and the day should be observed even if but few of the trees planted should grow.

FARM hands are in demand in the Salt River valley. A farmer of that place advertises for farm hand guar anteeing one dollar per day, good bed, three meals day and as further inducement lunch of custard pie and a drink of good liquor before going to bed. The only drawback to the job seems to be that the farmer requires the hand to work between meals.

THE oil excitement has reached Utah. The petroleum found in boring for water east of Aspen tunnel was analyized and found equal to the Penn sylvania product. Thousands of lOca- tions have been made along the Union Pacific in Wyoming and Utah. Cap italists from Chicago and Olnah have secured large tracts of land and will bore for oil.

ADVERTISING.
Tho Way to Use It
 Successfully.

Advertise continu- ously, business will follow. A pile driver accomplishes It's work by constant pounding. That Is the way suc- cessful business men win trade-by constant advertising. The pile driver cannot sink Q long stick with one or two blows-there must be steady, persistent work. No more can q business man hope to win a big business by one or two advertise ments. He must keep constantly before the public, day after day, month after month and year after year. By such means a store becomes an establish ed institution, secure in its position, if 1t keeps up-to-date in every thing. The slightest suspension in effort will be taken advantage of by your shrewd competitors. The worst place to allow exertion to re- lax is in advertising, for that sort of thing attracts notice of an undesirable kind. Yet there are business men who consider 1t wise to stop advertise ing altogether. How can they so view the matter when they see fortunes made by ad- vertiSingy
 The cost for news paper advertising in THE SUN Is low when circulation is consid- cred. Therefore every business man-wheth- CT doing . One-man or n l0O-man trade-can afford to advertise.

Advertise in THE SUN.
 Don't follow prece- dent too closely.
 Advertising is the road to wealth for the merchant.
 The up-to-date ad- vertiser is the one who wins the confi- dence of patrons.
 Some people fear publicity n good deal more than their own conscience. Good ad- vertisers are afraid of neither.
 A little in each ad- vertisement and many advertisementsis is usu- ally regarded as the correct principle on which to proceed.
 Before you can get people to talk about you, you must do some talking yourself - in the columns of a good newspaper-THES SUN.
 Advertising is the best habit a merchant can afford to indulge in without injury to himself or his busi- ness industry. Try it in THE SUN.
 THE SUN is the best and largest paper in CocOninO county. It is the only paper de voted to local news and it has the largest number of readers.
