Progress Of Arizona.

Washington. Oct. 25.-The annual re-
port Of the governor Of Arizona to the
secretary of the interior says the ter
rItory population has increased con-
siderably and that the total population
now is between 165. 900 and 10000.
It expresses a desire on the part of
the people of Arizona for statehood.
but says that finding themselves con-
frontcd with a plan to unite their terri
tory with New Mexico. the people Of
Arizona have protested vigorously and
will continue to do so until they have
defeated this repugnant scheme. They
would desire that their commonwealth
remain a territory indefinitely rather
than to be joined with New Mexico"
The governor adds his belief that the
merger would not be acceptable to the
mass of the people of either territory.
The report says that the floating in
debtedness of Arizona, which on June
so, 1903, was $92.341, has been wiped
out and balance of $20.Si9 remained
in the general fund at the close of the
last fiscal year.
The taxable property of the territory
has gained 1881 ,505 during the year.
The total taxable property of the va
rious counties is s45.069.545. Substan-
tial progress in other directions Is re-
ported.

Crops Without Irrigation.

After more than twenty years OF
study and experiment In the semi-arid
belt. Mr.. II. W. Campbell Of Lincoln.
Nebraska, has developed system OF
soil culture which would seem from in
formation at hand to be particularly
well adapted to the needs OF agricul-
ture in the arid states.
A farmer writing from Nebraska
says that after experimenting with the
Campbell process for two years. dur
ing the past season. which was an un-
favorable one for wheat. from twenty
acres of land cultivated during the
summer OF 1903 and sown to winter
wheat, he harvested $50 bushels OF
wheat, testing fifty-nine pounds. or for.
ty.one bushels to the acre. And this,
too. in the face of the fact that ninety
per cent of the wheat sown in the
same neiEhborhood under the old sys-
ten Of cultivation was total failure.
The successful test of the new system
was made on high land with less than
one-h half inch ofTain from August, 1908,
to April. 1904.
A Kansas farmer writes: while the
wheat crop in our section was total
failure in 1904. yet on our farm, where
we cultivate entirely under Professor
Campber's plan we raised over forty
bushels per acre, from less than one
half bushel OF seed sown.'
Another Kansas farmer writes Of
thirty.eight acres which during the
past season yielded over thirty bush
els per acre after cultivation under the
methods employed by this system.

falling the circumstances OF the amaz-
ing and unexplained attack by the Rus
sian Second Pacific squadron during

given out. but II Is officially stated
from the foreign once that II contains
the significant announcement that the
situation Ii one which. in the opinion
OF his majesty's government. does not
brook delay
Everywhere there Ia evidence OF the
very positive opinion that this Is no
time for the usual diplomatic dilly-dai-
lying. that there must be no delay and
no limit set by Russia to her apology
or the extent OF compensation for suf-
ferers by what King Edward himself
terms ''the unwarranted action" Of the
Baltic squadron commanders.
There was n hostile demonstration
at Victoria station tonight upon the
arrival Of Count Benckendroff. the Rus
sian ambassador to Great Britain. A
crowd gathered and hooted him and at
tempted to break the windows Of his
carriage.
Meanwhile the conservative public
and press aJe remarkably undsmon-
straiive. As usual the lingo element
demands war. and even In Official quar-
ters some go 50 far as to say that II
may be necessary to stop the Pacific
fleet. pending settlement of the whole
affair. though this extreme measure. Il
Is believed. will not be necessary. The
King sent the following message 10 the
mayor OF Hull:

Exit from Organized Charities Wood-
 yard StOutly Blocked.

New Haven, Feb. 10.--Gladys, the cook at the Organized Charities, and laundress whose name Is withheld, held two hoboes at bay yesterday morning with a carving knife and wash board until the male reinforce ments arrived. The would-be sneak CTS were making dash for liberty in the absence of the foreman of the wood yard and the presence of huge pile of wood waiting to be sawed.
 John Read and Timothy Dwyer were the inglorious captives Wednes- day they asked for shelter at police headquarters and were sent to NIT Preston's hotel. Refreshed by their weep they were Tod to the wood pile before breakfast. They denounced the present mo breakfast" fad so touchingly that Superintendent Pres ton allowed them their chop before chopping. They were then set to work and the foreman of the wood yard Intentionally went down cellar. The hoboes made break through the kitchen, the only exit.
 The stalwart Gladys happened to emerge from the pantry with a carv- ing knife at the moment. The laun- dress simultaneously appeared with her wash board and both blocked the door. They raised their weapons threateningly, and remarked, You pass this door over our dead bodies y or words to that effect. They held the chagrined men at bay until the foreman came upstairs and called the police.
 Tn the city court they were charg- ed with idleness. Judge Dow sent Read to jail for 55 days and Dwyer for 60 days.
