ANNUAL REPORr. OF GOV. KIBBEY
Aflzona's Executive Announces
Prosperity and Progress Through
out the Territory

ln his annual report to the Sec
retary Of the Interior, Governor
Kibbey says the past year was the
most prosperous the territory has
ever known. There has beer
greater activity in all the leading
branches of industry, mining, stock
raising and farming. There has
been great advance IN farm lands,
particularly in the Salt river val.
ley, where the advance in many
instances has exceeded 100 per
cent within year.
The estimated population of the
territory is $4,000 of which 26,
900 are Indians. The immigra
tion has been chiefly from Mexico,
attracted by the high wages of
miners. The same attraction has
brought in great many Slavon-
ians, Austrians and Italians.
The financial condition of the
territory is excellent. The debt,
SS,l23,275.29. is the same as that
of the previous year, no new bonds
having been issued. The cash
balance in the treasury in June
was more than $500, 900, the high
record, but a considerable part of
that as we'll as of the receipts to
come in will be absorbed by fixed
expenditures and by the appropri-
ations provided for by the last
legislature, However, a larger
surplus than ordinary will be car
ried over to the coming year,
The report abounds in statistics
concerning the public institutions.
The territorial banks are shown
to be in remarkably good condi.
ton, No failures were reported
during the year, The resources of
the banks were increased from
Sl7,356.S4670 to S22,40l, $50 66,
and the deposits from $685..
461.l9 to $l8,4S7,5l2.6S.
The report described at length
the new mine taxing law of the
territory by which the valuation
Of the mines for taxable purposes
has been brought up to nearly
S2l 100000; an increase of
nearly S7,000,000 over the pre-
ceding year.
On the subject of statehood with
which the report concludes, after
describing the election year ago
in which the joint statehood propo-
sition was defeated by vote of
1922 to 3,l4l, the governor says:
Nearly a year has passed since
that election and ! deem it my
duty to report the fact that public
sentiment is even stronger in Arr
zona against joint statehood with
New Mexico than it was last year."
Of the closing of gambling Gov.
ernor Kibbey says: "ThIs made
April | historic date 10 the ter
rltory, for until then gambling had
been conducted everywhere in
wide open manner, the doors of
the gambling houses being open
every day and night of the year.
