The SENTINEL office is daily in receipt of letters from parties desiring information concerning Yuma county lands. This is an indication of a coming boom, or more properly, 8 steady, healthy growth, the only true basis of permanent prosperity.
The Arizona sentinel., 1901-02-13

Times in Yuma are now ad- vancing upward. Everything in dicates that prosperity is now here, and come to stay. The rapid settling valleys above and below us, the active revival of the mining interests contiguous thereto and various combinations of suspicious circumstances, all point to a very prosperous flu ture for Yuma.
The Arizona sentinel., 1901-02-13

Advertise the manifold re sources of Yuma county; re spond to all inquiries concerning our lands and climate; invite i'm migration, and in a few years the valleys and mesas will be peo- pied by an industrious and pros porous population, enriching Iu- ma and Arizona.

ASKS NO PERSONAL CREDIT.

maker. This IS true Of public journals equally as il is with pri vate individuals. The Sun in its last issue frenzied itself into 5 column of mis-stataments to the end that Governor Murphy was seeking to deprive Gen. Wilson of any honor he may have earned by virtue of his services in the matter Of the dcfunct AlgOdOrcs land grant. Governor Murphy has sought to do nothing of the kind; on the contrary he has chivalrously acknowledged the good services of General Wilson even, as we think, beyond their merit. Tn a letter to a friend here who had written him rela- tive to his part in the opening of the grant, he said t:
 :I enclose you herewith some correspondence which speaks for itself. You remember 1 prom ised in my speech at Yuma that, whether elected or defeated, 1 would do what 1 could in Wash ingtOn to have the AlgOdOnes grant opened. I do not wish to take any credit from Delegate Wilson in the matter. He passed the bill through the house and his friends passed it through the senate, although l helped expe- dite it and did everything neces- sary in the General Land Office. All l want the people of that community to know is that 1 did as 1 agreed; but l ask no credit in the premises, nor do 1 wish any given to me to the detriment of Delegate Wilson; he is wei come to all the credit to be given. I simply did my part, and ask nothing for it. 1 shall esteem it favor if no effort is made to give me personal credit for the result" "
 Could a more manly concession be made? We think not, in fact we know so. In accordance with the promises made to the good people of Yuma and of the valley that he would give the opening of the grant his personal atten- tion, whether elected or defeat ed, he went to Washington and at his own expense manfully fulfilled the promises he made. The Hon. Binger Hermann, Commissioner of the General Land Office, is a personal friend of Governor Murphy, and it was through the able sympathy thus enlisted that the grant is so soon to be opened to settlement and entry. The following letters from the Hon. Commissioner are evidence of the fact

POLICE HAVE
TRUNK THIEF
Looked for a Gang" Found
Charles Johnson, a
Negro Swell.
HE MAKES CONFESSION.
Says Thieying Was Easy and Busi-
ness So Good He Hired a Dozen
Rooms to Hold PIunder.
HE MAKES CONFESSION.

By tho arrest Of Charles johnson. col
ored. Capt. Titus believes he has ended
tha stealing OF express wagons and
trunks that has been going on during
tho past two or three weeks on the
upper west side.
The negro. dressed in tho height OF
fashion, admits that he was the gang
OF thieves tho police were looking for.
and he says that he found tho business
Of stealing trunks pleasant and profit
able.
For several weeks drivers who LETT
their exprsss wagons In tho street un-
guarded while they went Into apart
ncnt-houses to receive or deliver trunks
,were often surprised on returning to and
that tho wagons wcre gone. An hour
or two later the wagons would bo found
by policemen. but the trunks would be
m!sS1nS.
Many valuable TRUNKS were thus
stolen, and one express company offered
rewards OF $500 each for two Of them
"and no questions asked"
CHIEF OF Detectives Titus detailed
nearly his entire stan on the robberies.
and the men In plain clothes have been
patrolllng tho residence district and
watching express ~asona
Yesterday afternoon two detectives
saw Johnson about to climb to the
drivers seat OF an express wagon loaded
with trunks at tho corner OF Cantral
Park West and Soventy-ninth street.
Tho driver appeared too soon. ana the
negro pretended to be tieing his shos.
Tho detectives followed the negro to
. house. tho address OF which they re-
fuse to give. There, In . room, they
found him taking OF his coal prepora-
tory 10 unpaciking articles from four
trunks In the room They took htn. TO
headauartsrs.
Mr.. johnson was indignant at hrst. but
he soon saw II was no use. Then no said
le had worked alone and had done all
che reported robber.es and lots OF others.
He would drop the trunks IN ono OF his
many rooms, and then, after abandoning
the wagon, would call a messenger boy
and send him to a pawnBhop with ar.
ticles from the trunks. This police were
thus unable to trace him through tho
pawnshops.
"Business was too good 70 hsve only
one home," he told Capt. Titus Il be-
gan this busaness In q small way, hut
after a few days experience ! found
that my small room wasn't big enough
for al tho tunha ! got: 20 ! hired
dozen and dropped trunks at tho one I
happened to Be nearest when made a
