THE PIONEER HOME.


 The building of home in this
 territory for the old pioneers, who
 were active at any time in their ca reer in developing the resources of the territory, is one of the distin- gushing credit marks for the terri tory and future state. The Pioneer Home in Prescott is now housing a good many of the old boys who were in Arizona during the early days and engaged in development pur- suits. The home. of course, was not intended for every man who came to tine territory and met with financial reverses, but it is intended for those who were engaged in some effort for the building up of the in- dustries of the territory, such as mine development. reclamation of arid land. and putting it in cultivation, etc.
 The men who came to Arizona to undertake the development of the resources in this territory, and who met with misfortune and need in the declining years of their lives are to be cared for at public expense, and if there ever was deserving class of men if is these old pioneers who braved the hostile Indian and en-, dured the hardships of the desert, and in so doing made it possible for the present population to be here and in the enjoyment of prosperity.
 Be it said to the credit of the old pioneers that there are yet few in mates of the home, but the home is there where hearty welcome will always await those who may be de- of it's comfOrts.-TucsOn Star
