Old Mexico Letter

School days have come once
more. School started August 9th
with very good attendance, So
many students from other colonies
gives the town the appearance OF
thrift and activity.
Juarez herself shows thrift in
every feature and is marvel TO
all who "Isit her, and the visitor
wonders where her resources are
and how the inhabitants are able
to build such fine homes and the
two large school buildings, the old
and new academies, which will ac.
commodate about 500 students, it
all shows enterprise and public
spirit among the people. Nearly
every city lot has fine orchard
upon it and this year the trees are
laden with more fruit than they
are able to carry. Tons Of peaches
nave LAID under the trees and
rotted because they could not be
used by the owners or gwen away.
The cannery has handled but little
fruit so far this year and the deal
ers would only handle the best.
The excessive rains have rendered
it impossible to dry scarcely any
peaches at all. Our corn crops
are excellent aud grass plentiful,
cattle are fat and everything tends
to make the people look pleasant.
Willard Skonson and N. o. Rob-
inson, who have been railroading
in Sonora along the Yaqui river,
have sold part of the outfit and are
gong down near Parrol in the
southern part of this state. They
have found it pretty hot spending
the summer down among the
Yaquis. q. A. Martineau, who
has also been running a camp in
that part is spending a short time
here.
The health of the people in gen.
eral is good, Phil Robinson, who
has been suffering from typhoid |
fever for some time is improving
slowly.
p, G. Hanie of Oaxaca, has re-
Gently purchased Il home here and
is moving his family here, having
sold most Of bis property in that
place.
/ heartily sanction the stand the
GUARDIAN has taken in protecting
the rights Of the citizens of Arr.
zona. II makes no difference what
scheme may be devised to rob a
people of their rights, there is al.
ways some one who is short
sighted enough to sell their birth
right for mess of pottage. Stand
by your rights and make Arizona
a state alone, or let her always re.
