Implacable, afar,
Though high within the twilight sky
Cleans cold our trysting star.

Though now through cells Of gloom;

Their moiety Of bloom.

A MOST remarkable discovery of gold is reported as having been made sev- enty miles north of Tucson of vein of gold ore POO feet wide and 5000 feet in length. The vein was cut by Box canyon, exposing the vein on both sides of the canyon its full width, and from the bottom of the canyon to the surface the outcroppings of ore show value of from S5 to $l,0OO per ton. Over seven millions of dollars are in sight, it is estimated. The find is considered the most remarkable gold discovery in Arizona. Much of the ore is glittering with free gold.

HEALTHIEST PLACE KNOWN.
Tho Highest Mortality Is In tho States Most Widely Known as Health
 Resorts-Avera6e Death Rate.

The most healthful place in the United States to live is in Marion, Iowa, according to reports received by the marine hospital service from l,l90 cities and towns having population of one thousand or more, There may have been more healthful place than Ma rion, but if so no official returns were received from it. Marion has popu- lation of 4, 100, and there were only six deaths in 1900, making the death rate the phenominally low figure of 1.46 per 1000.
 The death rate in all the cities and towns was 1,747. It appears from the compilation of the marine hospital service that the state having the best record for health last year was North Dakota, with death rate of only 6.95 per 1000 of population. By far the most healthful of the very populous states, however, was Iowa, the death rate being ll.l7. Ohio, which made reports from towns aggregating pop ulation of more than a million and a half, shows death rate of only l4.S4.
 The notable reports of healthfulness, however, come from the Northwestern and far Western states. Minnesota, the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, Ida hO and Montana all have exceedingly low death rates. On the other hand the states which are widely known as health resorts, such as Arizona, Colo rado and California, have compara- lively high mortality, probably because many persons suffering from incurable pulmonary troubles go there and die. California last year had an average death rate of 17.63, Colorado 25.29 and A rizona 32.28. The last named had the highest mortality of any state or terri tory in the Union. New York states mortality was 1885.
 The town in the United States having the highest ratio of mortality last year was Carlyle, Ill. The population was 1874 and the number of deaths 100, | making a death rate of 53.3l. The | most unhealthful of the very large cities was Washington; death rate, 2l.71, Baltimore's death rate was FLOP, Philadelphia 19.38, Boston 2O.82 and Chicago l4.6S.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER F, 1901.
ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO.

The Globe-Democrat has heretofore opposed the admission of Arizona and New Mexico. It now has the following good words to say of these territories:
 1.-The movement to secure admission to statehood for Arizona and New Mex. ico during the coming session of con- gress is actively under way. Meetings have been held in both territories in aid of this project recently, and the men at the head of the movement have confidence in its success. Bills have been before the past two congresses looking for the erection of Arizona into state, while, of course, efforts in the same direction have been sporadically made in the case of New Mexico for the past half century. In the present in- stance there is fair probability of suc- cess for both territories.
 "New Mexico had l94, 900 inhabitants by the census of 1900. This is slightly in excess of the unit of representation for the states in congress. The popu- lation increase for New Mexico in the past ten years was about 26 per cent, which is slow compared with the gain in other territories. but it is faster than the increase in the country as a whole, which was 2l per cent. ArizOna's pOpu- lation is much smaller than that of her sister territory, and was only 122, 900 in 1900. Arizona is growing with great rapidity, however. Its increase in the past decade was l05 per cent. Only two localities in the entire country have grown faster than Arizona in the past few years, and these are Okla homa, which made a gain of 544 per cent in ten years, and the Indian Ter ritory, which grew to the extent of IF per cent.
 There is a disposition throughout the West at least to favor the admission of both Arizona and New Mexico. Okla hOma's admission has no opponents any where, so far as we have learned. Such antagonism as the East may have had to the erection of these projected states in the old Mexican territory has dimin- ished somewhat in the past twelve months through the disappearance of the silver issue. Arizona is represented by Democratic delegate in the pres ent congress, while New Mexico chose a Republican. The latter also had Democrat in the late congress. Par tisan considerations will have less in- fuence in this matter now than they would have had at any time in the past. The Republican party's ascendency is secure for the immediate time, but, as everybody knows, some lightning changes have come in the partisan complexion of congress often in the past. The present indications are that Oklahoma, New Mexico and Arizona will all be erected into states within tho nayf twn yeaps
