Supplying Water to Cities.

The town of Yuma, Arizona, lies entirely within the lines of the Yuma irrigation project and at present has an execrahle water system. The water is pumped directly from the river into settling tanks, and from these is distributed through the mains. Only small part of the town is supplied with filtered water and the price is almost prohibitOry. The climatic con ditions being arid and nearly semi-tropical, the town requires a larger proportional share of water than almost any other city in the United States.
 A recent act of congress pre- vides that the government may supply water from it's irrigation projects to cities within or adja- cent to the irrigated areas, and the citizens of. Yuma, by a peti- ton which has been signed by the largest property holders are urging the town council to make an application to the secretary of the interior for water right. This will probably be the first application under the new law MaXWell'S TaliSman.

Indebtedness of Arizona and
New rtexiCO.

New Mexico has been an or ganized territory for nearly sixty . years; Arizona for about forty three years. The debt of New Mexico June 30, 1905, was S792, S33, being a reduction of more than onethird in six years of it's public debt.
 Now what of ArizOna's indebt- edness, which has a life of one third less years than New Mex icO?
 In 1905 the territorial indebt- edness was S980, ,972, and this does not include her county and city bonded indebtedness, which totals, in addition, S2, ,030. Would the state have to assume this large county and municipal Indebtedness of Arizona'S? Ger tainly, if it had assumed the in debtedness of some of the New Mexico counties.
 AriZona's territorial indebted ness is nearly S20O,000 greater than is that of New Mexico. Which territory will get the best of tlnt trade? A schoolbey can figure out this simple proposi- ton.

If the people of Arizona come in now," says the president, "they will achieve what every self-respecting American ought to wish to achieve-the right of self government" Arizonans, however, have notion that if they come in now they will suc ceed only in achieving the right to be governed by the inhabi tantS of New Mexico.

 In this the Arizonans are mis- taken.

If they have not, let them take their chances. They ought to do what the sensible people of New Mexico are doing accept the situation and make the best of it. Washington Post.
