VERIFIED IN THE
PROPER LIGHT.

Let us annex Arizona. Under
the decisions of the Supreme Court
it appears to be uncertain whether
territory is or is not an integral
part of the United States. The
question as to Arizona can be
settled by admitting this progress
sive and productive territory into
the Union as a state.
We are for Arizona statehood
first, last and all the time. There's
no valid reason against Arizona's
admission. Arizona has sufficient
population, ample present re-
sources and grand future.
The Pacific coast in general and
southern California in particular
has every reason to help Arizona
to her responsibilities and duties
of statehood.
The Pacific coast is weak in con-
gress ond especially weak in the
senate. We have six senators to
represent the Pacific seaboard, as
against thirty on the Atlantic
coast and eight on the Gulf of
Mexico, or ten counting Florida in
both groups. The portion of our
country prominently open to
phenomenal growth under irriga-
ton is also weak and unappreciat
cd. Arizona will understand, SYM
pathize and promote every inter-
est in southern California and on
the Pacific coast, and throughout
the arid section. The growth and
strength of Arizona is the growth
and strength of southern Californ
ia. We are for Arizona's star. of
statehood and so are our people.
Great state, grand scenery, large
natural wealth, glorious future.
Hurrah for the state of Arizona!

WHAT A CANNERY WILL DO,

The following article from the
Bells. Texas, Ne,oS, is applicable
to Stafford. We have everything
necessary for cannery, and our
business men and farmers should
read and study well what the Ne'os
says:
"People who have never llVed
in or near a small town that has
cannery can not correctly compre-
hend or appreciate the Importance
of a well regulated cannery as to
what it may do for the town and
surrounding country, to the farm
er. the laborer, the merchant, the
gardener, the real estate owner
and the banker. 1t will prove
continual source of profit each
year. A successful cannery will
double the value Of real estate both
in the town and county in few
wears. 1t will increase tho sale OF
all kinds of goods-grocerics,
hardware, farming implements, etc
1t will put large amount OF
money in circulation in the neigh
borhood and distribute it just
where it is most needed, and give
the laborer and his family chance
to earn considerable sum of
money at time of the year when
many are usually idle.
"To the farmer it will diversity
the crops and give larger returns
on small tracts of land, and will
insure and promote better cultiva-
ton, for it is useless for anyone
to try to raise sweet corn, toma'
toes, beans or small fruit without
thorough and practical cultivation.
"The writer has raised as much
as twelve tons of tomatoes to the
acre and delivered them to can
merry at Sc per ton, making s72 per
acre.
"a cannery properly operated
in good locality during favorable
years will pay to the stockholders
so per cent on the money invested
and will greatly increase the busi-
ness of the local bank. The great
er the number of people interested
as stockholders and growers the
greater the success will be.
Conditions requisite to success
are, first, a locality naturally |
adapted to the growth of such
vegetation and fruits as are re-
quired for canning purposes and
people that are willing to work to
make a success possible both in
the field and factory. Throwing
aside certain amount Of selfish
ness and each one striving for the
common good of all is another re-
quisite. OF course, cheap fuel
good water and transportation
have something to do with it. But
last, though most important of all,
are a thoroughly competent busi-
ness manager and good factory
foreman

Opening Great Success

AL. w. Martins Uncle Toms
Cabin" was given an ovation at the
opening performance of the season at
the new Wilmington theatre, Tenth
and Tatnall streets, last night. The
house was packed to the doors, and
many were unable to gain admittance.
The production of this famous play
as given by the Martin company is I'M
doubtedly the best that has been seen
in Wilmington for many years, and
leaves the most severe critic no room
to find fault. The stage effects are
new and the settings everything that
one could desire The cast includes
nearly 100 people, and the principal
parts are exceptionally well taken.
The new management Of the house
feels much pleased with the opening
night, and they have good cause to be.
for it was the biggest kind OF sue
cess. Uncle Toms Cabin" will ap-
pear tonight and tomorrow night
and at a special matinee for ladies
and children tomorrow afternoon.

Crowds of people go to see the
strange animal captured by Bridge
tender Joseph Cor, OF the Western
bridge, and he is thinking of charging
admission.
The unknown creature was captured
by Mr.. Con- on Monday after a
pitched battle It was perched on a
mass Of driftwood, passing down the
stream and savagely attacked Con,
who finally succeeded in throwing a
box over it.
The animal which weighs about fif-
ten pounds, is of a CRASH hue and
slightly resembles a squirrel in form.
While throngs OF people go to see it
daily, no one has been able to give it
a name. Many contend that it is an
English squirrel, while others assert
that it is al grounding. Mr. Goff is
confident that IL is neither, however,
which only serves to increase interest
in the unknown creature.
