UTAH'S REQUEST IS TURNED DOWN

For several years past Utah has been wont to send a delegation to Phoenix at the time the Arizona legis- lature was in session praying for that certain parcel of land lying north of the Colorado river and the Utah boundary line. Just so often has the delegation returned to Salt Lake City empty handed and the present visit of a similar delegation has been treat ed in a like manner.
 Last week a legislative committee was appointed by both houses to con fer wi-i the representative fron Utah and after listening patiently to their extended argument the legisla- tive committee politely informed the visiting delegation that it was no use" The committee even refused 10 introduce a bill along the lines asked for by the delegation.
 It is to be hoped now, after this third attempt, that Utah will let us alone. ATlzOna IS not ready now or never, to part with any of its territory. The rugged country north of the Colo rado river is valued for it's magnificent grandeur and for it's mineral wealth, which as yet has only been scratched on the surface. The delegation at tempted to show that this particular tract of land was worthless; still Utah has exhibited marked eagerness to gain possession.
 It is possible that the people of Ari- zona, busied with their own affairs. have neglected to take careful stock of the region. and that our neighbors in Utah know more about it than we do. Certainly, they, have exhibited a suspicious anxiety to acquire land of supposedly little value.

The selection of ex-Private Seere- tary George B. Cortelyou for the new cabinet position should meet with uni versal approval, as it comes in the form of a promotion rather than a re- ward for any political service. MT. Cortelyou was private secretary to the late President Mckinley and was re- tained in like position under Roose- welt. Six years of handling the detail work of the presidency must give a man a wonderful knowledge Of every governmental condition No man could have been found better equipped for the responsible position than the appointee. His confirmation in the senate was prompt and he will at once direct his attention to the organ ization of his department MT. Cor telyou is the second private secretary to receive a cabinet position. Dan Lamont, who held to the helm of the ship Of state while Grover Cleveland made love and fshed during his first presidential term, was made secretary of war by his old patron when he took the presidency for the second time.

 Douglas. Ariz.

Barney Hanson of this city has written to some of his friends here that he has discovered a quantity of fabulously rich gold float in the vi cinity of Douglas, Ariz., and is now engaged in trying to discover the ledge from which it came The dis covery has caused considerable ex- citement and other prospectors are fiocking to the locality in search of the source of the wealth. Specimens of the float are said to run thousands of dollars to the ton.

Judging from the frequent confer ences of the opponents of the omni- bus statehood bill, that measure is still very much alive All attempts to defeat statehood by proposed amend men:s have failed and this is sufficient to lend encouragement to the hope that Arizona will be given place un- der Uncle Sam's wing before March 4th next

The work of the present legislature is yet in the future. We predict that the solons will work fast from now to the final adjournment The Twen- ty-second will be judged by the quality of it's laws and not by the number of bills introduced or passed.

invariable reply 10 the advances of real
estate men last week and was the thing
that killed the business for the time being.
Few real-estate dealers had little more TO
do during the week than to keep their Of
fees open and talk with an occasional
friend that happened in. Not single big
transfer was recorded, as the minds Of
people were more occupied with thoughts
of Christmas and its kindred themes than
with any thoughts of business or money
getting. This state of affairs in the real
estate business is not new, but is always
expected at the holiday season..
A large number of deals are hanging
fire." which are expected to be closed up
some time in January
The Home Brewing Company is making
plans to add large building to its plant,
to be used for the bottling department and
stables, TO be constructed of brick at a
cost OF $4,000. 1t will stand between the
present bottling department. and the main
bunding. in the rear of the offices. The
present stables on DAILY street will be al
tered and used for a washhouse and boiler
room. while the smokestack of the brew
cry, now one of the tallest in the city, will
be built UP forty feet higher.
