ARIZONA oRANGEs SAFE.

Nature stole a march on Jack Frost
and California when she arranged
that the Arizona orange crop should
rpen and be gathered several weeks
previous to the extreme western crop.
Close investigation made Friday ard
Saturday by members of the Orange
Growers association elected the fact
that none of the orchards in this val
ley have been materially injured by
! the late vety severe weather, o test
which Salt River valley oranges may
not have to again undergo in years to
come. Mr.. G. W. Mardis, who keeps
II close tch on fruit conditions, said
yesterday that the Arizona growers
would suffer virtually no loss, while
California orange men are damaged to
the extent of many thousand dollars.
OnIy very few of the younger trees
in Arizona groves were damaged, and
virtually al the f.uit had been picked.
A large part of that left on the trees
was there for exhibition purposes and
will serve just as well frozen Unlike
other fruits, oranges do not fall when
nipped by frost and will likelp remain
on the trees for weeks. Small quanti-
ties Of the oranges that were frozen
are being peddled about the streets.
1t is the impression among many pco-
Pile that frosted oranges are poisonous,
bnt notwithstanding this fact the In .
dians and Mexicans devour The frozen
fruit with great gusto. Private re-
ports from Riverside, Cal, state thai
the orange crop there is ruined and
the losses will approximate several
thousand dollars.
1t is likely that the test to which
local orange groves have just beer ex-
posed will give a great impetus to the
industry in this valley The fear of
frost has been next to the fear of
shortage of water, and since the grow
have fourlshed through one of the
dryest seasons ever known here and
survived 9 record-bresking cold spell,
thre should be 70 hindrance now to
the steady and rapid growth Of the
orange business in Arizona.

THE ALGODONEs GRANT.

The Algodones land grant will he
opened at once for settlement. This
news came over the wire from Wash
ington yesterday, and, although no
official confirmation has been received
at the Tucson land office, yet the news
IS regarded as true, and notification is
expected at the land rtfice this week.
The bill, which was introduced by
Delegate Wilson provides for the
opening of this immense grant to
homestead entry, giving those who
have already settled upon the lands of
the grant, six mouths in which to
make entry at the Tucson land office
of thu ir lands This protects them
against any loss FROM Jumpers, and
gives them ample protection.
The news of the passage of the
Algodores bill was received at Yuma
with Joy which found vent in great
celebration on Saturday night in
which the people of Yuma joined with
the ranchers in recognizing the great
fortune which has bcfallen the Colo-
4:
RADIO river country. The opening of
the grant TO settlement means much
to Yuma, as the lands of the grant
are remarkably rich aud productive.
A rush is expected at the Tucsod land
ofce when the first day comes for To-
cation CT lands upon the grant. Tue

health gives his people frequent ap
prehension and ctusas the considera

Non since the time of Napvoo,
when Br ,bam Young o,ercame lival
ry and became the head of The church
after the killing OF Joseph Saith, has
| here b: en- any dorht as to the right
Of succession. The tn ory of the
Mormon church is that the Lord in
spires the twelve apostles in the nam
ing OF The church pre- sident, but in
varlably the presiding apostle has been
chose. and the presiding apostle has
heen the senior one in tern Of service
in the quorum Of the twelve, as the
apostolic orgariz ,tion IS called. So
hrie,ofor. it has been simply a formal
matter to designate Il new head OF the
lwelve or !. new head Of the church
But Apostle Richards, the president
Of he twelve, died fe months ago.
and bequea,hed an tcleasricsl problem
Co his brethren.
hr p,, siarnt of the church has
two counselors. Their apostolic func-
tons are suspended while they act as
c0unseiors, bat if when their chief
dies his successor does not retain them
they 90 back 70 their seats among the
apostl.s S. George Q. Cannon AID
Joseph r. Smith are the counseiors of
President Snow. Cannon BECAME an
apostle in 1860 and Smith in 1867.
But Brigham Young, son OF The pro-
phst, was ordained an apostle by his
fathers favor in 1855 although he did
not become all actual member of tie
apostles quorum until 1868, after
Canl.on aud Smith had taken seats in
it, and he claims seniority, with the
ii,ht of successicn, Oh the ground Of
his earli>r ordination.
When the aposle les were confronted
with the duty of selecting II chief on
he death of Ri ha~ts, .hey erad"d
decision of the question of succession
involved by leaving the position of
president OF 'he twelve vacant. To
take the place George @. Cannon
would ha, been compelled to resigl.
'rQm his present position, in which he
is r. sardcd by many as virtually the
head of the church. On the other
hand the elevation of Brigham Young
would be concession, according to
precedent, of his claim to the church
presidency. So the failure to X lect
chief apostle is regarded as on the
whole indicating the preference Of a
majority of the apostles in behalf of
Canncn. But Young and his adner
ents hope that his name has not yet
lost its power to conjure, and that the
favcrl'am shown him by his father
will have strong influence i'll COM
