The year just closing seems to have been a remarkably brief one. This, probably, due to two causes:
 First-We, as officials of our splendid Company. have not seen accomplished yet the desires of our hearts, which in our anxiety makes time fly. We had strong and sufficient reasons to believe, as we measured up and weighed out influences and saw them in the light of business experiences and the real worth, to investors of the banana prop osition (which we are working out with great care and unshaken confidence), as to the results being entirely sarIs- factory when We have completed the enterprise. But we have not yet reached the goal of our ambition; nor realized what our faith, stronger than ever. points to, viz: Such fulfillment of our promises as will meet the most hearty appreciation of our warmest friends and faithful supporters. and at the same time gain the complete con- hdence Of the most pessimistic.
 Second-The president of the com pany has been laid up for fully three months the past year from two acci- dents. which prevented him from ac- lively participating in the affairs of the company. which made the work that much more irksome to our faithful and persevering manager. However. being in close touch with him. am satisfied that MT. -- has done all in his power to push the work at home and at the plantation.
 As an official of the company. it is due the stockholders. and I now desire to place myself on record. with refer ence to MT. --s special efforts: do not see how any man could have been more faithful. more judicious, in his management of the company nor have been more thoroughly devoted to everything in detail all things consid- cred, than he. Furthermore. I feel per fectly justified in saying that our man ager has sufficient assets at his com mand. mostly coal, timber and agricul- tural lands. in the United States, as soon as they can be exchanged for cash, to fully complete his contract with the company. by planting and caring for and bringing the entire three thousand acres C3OOO) which we own into fruit bearing.
 That time seems to be not far in the future
 We will never give up the ship. We are in this fight to win.
 By the grace of God the victory shall be ours.
 Let every stockholder give us hearty support and We will in a few more months. rejoice together.
 Yours for success,
 President

THE FUTURE PROMISING
 FOR LUCK IN BANANAS
The ReAssurins Report of the Head
 of the Enterprise.

A few days ago there was held in Phoenix a so-called stockholders meeting of a corporation organized under the laws of this territory. There were present at the meeting only the agent of the corporation, the proxies of a majority of the stockholders. and the annual report of the president to the stockholders. The meeting was en- tirely harmonious. No sharp issue as to the future policy of the company was raised.
 One of the most interesting features of the occasion was the presidents re- port,- which was about as meaty with information as the statement lately made by Leader Murphy of Tammany as to the attitude of that religious or ganization toward the candidacy of William R. Hearst for governor of New York. It must have been gratifying to the proxies of the stockholders to learn that the company was abundantly pro vided with assets which needed only to be converted into cash to be available. This is the report:

ucts-
The demand of a great mining dis
trict cannot be supplied by native
products, and the Continent, Austria
liza, Canada and Argentina are compel
ing for the trade. Unfortunately for
the United States, only one line of
steamships, the Lord line, connecting
Baltimore and Cardiff. brings in food
products directly, and when they are
shipped via other ports the freight
charges give an advantage to other
countries. The imports of wheat and
-four are growing steadily, the value
having increased from about S3.S40. 900
in 1901 to ss.760,000 in 1905. BY ship
ping through Baltimore the American
producers might win a large share of
the increase, but it is evident that
other steamship lines must be estab
Hshed to give .the United States prod
ucts an equal opportunity with Austria
liza and Argentina. (The names of the
principal importers of wheat products
at Cardiff can be obtained from the
