her actions. and by her causeless and
unprovoked bolsterousness, screaming
hallooing, and other wild conduct, by

ALMOST A DAILY-AT THE PRICE.
 OF A WEEKLY.

The most widely circulated "weekly'' newspaper in America is the Thrice-a- Week edition of The New York World, and with the Presidential campaign now at hand yotI cannot do without it. Here are some of the reasons why it is easily the leader in dollar a year journalism.
 It is issued every other day. and is to all purposes daily.
 Every week each subscriber receives 18 pages. and often during the ''busy' season. 24 pages each week.
 The price Is only $1.00per year.
 It is virtually daily at the price of a weekly.
 Its news covers every known part of the. world. No weekly newspaper could stand alone and furnish such service
 The Thrice -a- " orld has at its disposal all of the resources the of greatest newspaper in existence-the wonder of modern iournaI ism" Ameriea's Greatest Newspaper.- it has been justly termed The New York World
 Its political news is absolutely impartial. This fact will be of especial value in the Presidential campaign coming on.
 The best of current fiction is found in it's columns.
 These are only some of the reasons; there are others. Read it and see them all

the indefensible position of doing noth- ing itselfeor allowing any one else to improve this great natural reservoir site.
 2. We firmly believe that the inter- ests of humanity dictate that the h. dians should be gathered on the reser- vations, have lands allotted to them in severalty, and that they be furnished with farming implements and an inex- haustible supply of water for irrigation of their lands, to the end that they may become self supporting. By this means will q home life be furnished for the Indian and he will more rapidly advance in civilization as a conse- quence. He will abandon his nomadic life his children will be kept at home and educated in neighborhood schools, instead of being sent to large Indian schools at distance where they are kept Gas it would seem) for mere purposes of show. After being in- structed in the arts of civilization for a time they are returned to savs.gery. to become more unhappy and tliscon- tented than if they had never received the questionable advantages. We feel that the present policy of the Indian department is all wrong in this regard

HOUSE MEMORIAL NO. 4.
To the Senate and House of Representa- lives of the United States in Con-
 oress Assembled.

We, your Memorialists, the Nine teenth Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Arizona. respectfully rep resent that the National Irrigation Congress, held in Phoenix, Arizona, ou the l1th of December, A. D. 1896, unan- imously adopted the following:
 Whereas, The Pima and Maricopa Indians tribes numbering in the aggregate ten thousand souls. have been deprived of the waters used by them in irrigation before the advent of the white race in America, through the appropriation of such waters by settlers on the headwaters of the Gila river; and
 Whereas. Through the loss of such waters the lands once cultivated by these tribes have become barren and worthless, and the members of such tribes have become, a charge on the Government. and forced by the loss of their fields into lives of degrada- tion and penury and
 Whereas, Such tribes have from the ear- Hest days been the friends and allies of the white race, and
 Whereas. The people of the United States haye pledged themselves by solemn treaty to protect such tribes in their property and property rights; and
 Whereas, The Government of the United States has and now is engaged in the ex- penditure of hundreds of thousands of dol lars for the construction of works of irriga- tion for the reclamation of lands belonging to other lnOluu lFlDeSf tQefeIOFb, pc lb
 Resolved That this Congress do approve the proposed construction. under the plans of the U. 5. Geological Survey. of the Buttes reservoir. in Pinal county, Arizona, recently reported. to again reclaim the lands of these tribes believing that by SO doing can the Government alone honorably redeem the broken pledges made by it to these people, and thus preserve from further want and degradntion two of the surviving Indien tribes of the American continent that have always been the constant friends of the white race.
 Resolved, That we approve the proposed construction of such reservoir not only as just and philanthropic. but us economical and soodp policy. as in a comparatively shor. time the expense of maintaining such In- dians as Government charges will far exceed the cost of the irrigation works required to make them q sef-supporting and self-re- 1 specting community.
 New, therefore, your Memorialists, the Nineteenth Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Arizona, desire to go ou record as earnestly endorsing f Che above recommendations of the Sixth National Irrigation Congress for the following reasons:
 1. The reservoir site referred to having been withdrawn iron entry by Government authorities, cannot now be utilized by any private corporation, and the Government therefore occupies

In fact, in residence of twenty-one years in Arizona the writer has only known two persons to be overcome by the heat, and they recovered. Their condition, however, was more the result of whisky than heat. The air is so dry here hhat registered temperature of no degrees is not as oppres- sive ass0 degrees in St. Louis or New York. The Signal Service bureau has recognized this fact, and reports the difference between the apparent and sensible temperature to be fully 30 degrees.

 While it is a popular thing for one to say that he is not here for his health," it is an undisputed fact that for all pulmonary ail- ments no climate on earth is equal to South ern Arizona. and there are numbers of active. industrious citizens, with but one lung, who came here years ago, expecting to live but few weeks. But for ali that, the wonderful Casa Grande valley is some- thing better than a health resort.
 That portion of the great Casa Grande valley lying along the line of the Southern Pacific railway in the vicinity of Casa Grande and Arizola is at present, and with good reason, considered one of the most desirable portions of this magnificent Southern Ari- zona. Great changes have been made in the appearance of this part of the valley during the last ten years. It was about that long ago that the Florence canal was completed and the work of actual Improvement begun. 1t is useless to deny that under our present water system there is nothing like sutii- cient waser to irrigate this vast body of land.

 It is proposed to remedy this by the con- struction of a huge reservoir near San Carlos, which would st, re 2sl,sB acre-feet of water, capable of irrigating 149,s9S acres of land. All of this land would be in the vicinity of Florence. The estimated cost of the dam is 8. .03s. .926. This survey was made by order of Congress, for which $20,000 was appropriated. Mir. J. D.

Schuyler considers per fectly feasible, would store 550O0O acre-feet of water and the reservoir would have life of sixty three years without dredging.
