PHOENIX, July 23.--w. c. Foster, territorial auditor and ex-ofi1cio men Der of the board of control of Arizona. was in Prescott in the interest ( the pioneer home, which is to be k cated there. Mir. Foster, as mem, Der of the board. deemed it his duty to visit the city and make a personal Inspection Of the ground upon which the building is to be erected. In com. pany with Major Doran. the superin tendent of the home, visit was made to the site selected in the Murphy addition. the deeds for which are now in the possession of the territory This site was originally agreed upon and the question was said to be semi. officially decided at the time the do nation was made.
 Following the visit of MT. Foster, however, and the depositions of sev. era! leading citizens being heard on the site of this home, there seems to be prevailing on the part of many Prescott people a desire to have the matter reviewed in the hope possibly of change being made in the selec. ton 0. a site before the question is finally decided for the permanent To eaton of this institution.
 In speaking on this question Mr. Foster says that while he is in sym. pathy with the movement to care for the pioneers and to extend them every comfort possible. he believes, along with representative citizens of Pres colt who have put the matter square. ly up to him, that 1t is possible to l make a better selection of ground than what is shown. He desires to create no i'll feeling toward anyone in this discussion, but on the other hand, to harmonize all, and desirt !, above all other things to see the home built.
 One objection advanced towarl | building on the Murphy site is the ex
 pense incidental to grading the land and the removal of the boulders on it.
 together with the limited area on
 which to place the structure. Several citizens of Prescott who
 have been spoken to on the selection of new site. without any expense | whatever attending the acquiring of | the ground. believe that there is no more desirable spot than embraced in 1 lot 39 in South Prescott, owned by
 the city It is situated on a gentle slope and runs from Cortez to Monte
 zuma streets. and from its elevated topography would give a magnificent view of all the surrounding country ! and would be seen from all parts of
 Prescott To grade 1t for building would entail no expense whatever. This would in itself save hundreds of dollars that would go into the build ing in the Murphy addition. IL is ! also within easy reach of the city
 water system. while It's drainage fla | cilities would be natural and perfect | It could be conveniently reached by ] wagon road from MonteZuma street
 without any expense, while from Cor. ', tez street, but one block os that thor. oughfare would have to be opened to reach the home building.
 | NIT. Foster desires this important | matter to be settled as soon as possf
 ble. in view of the fact that on An
 gust g the territorial board of equali
 zation will meet to make the levy for
 territorial institutions. among them
 the pioneer home After this Is made
 it VII be too late to give the ques- ton consideration. and the site then
 selected will be deterimned upon Ilegaliy.
