THE PROPOSED
SAN DIEGO RAID.

SNN 6a-SS nNaSs
a column editorial in the Arizona
Gazette pointing out the duty of the
Arizona legislature TO appropriate
S25O.000 to provide for the erection
Of state building and a state exhibit
at the San Diego exposition in 1915
is evidence enough that the San
Diego lobbyist has arrived in Phoenix
or sent word that he is coming.
The Gazette admits that Arizona
received no benefit from money ex
pended at the worlds fairs in New
Orleans, Chicago or st. Louis where
creditable exhibits were provided,
but the Gazette has made a discovery
that immigration to be drawn from
an international exhibit or worlds
fair can only be expected within the
zone of the locality where the exposi-
ton is held. Says the Gazette:
Chicago, st. Louis and Omaha OF
necessity did not have Arizona with
in their immigration zone. The eli
matte conditions and agricultural pos
sibilities of the land about them were
entirely and radically different from
Arizona. As a matter OF necessity. any
result IN the way of additional pOpu-
lation and wealth to Arizona from
any of the above expositions had to
be indirect and. at best. uncertain.
San Diego presents a different
proposition. Arizona is in the heart OF
her immigration zone and has bet
ter chance to gain increased wealth
and population from the great exposi.
ton of 1915 than has Southern Cali
fornia itself
Arizona would have a fine chance
to draw immigrants away from the
dazzling advertising displays that
would be made by the San Diego real
estate boomers with the very money
provided by Arizona,
Now. we submit, that the immigra-
ton record and data at St Louis
where a great international exposition
was held in the year 1904, will not
snow that there was any rush of i'm
migration to that particular zone since
that exposition was held. 1t is the
remark Of the country that st. Louis
mas not kept pace with either Kansas
City or Chicago in growth of popula-
ton during the last ten years.
If the legislature sees fit to provide
$4,000 or ST., O0O for o simple exhibit
O. our resources at San Diego there
would probably be no serious obiee'
ton, but even that would be a wasting
Of money badly needed at home for
building reads, for building additions
to and improving our public institu
tons and for building schools and
/ churches. There are many homo
needs for all the tax money in sight
1 tor which wise expenditures can b'
made and which will draw immigrants
homeseekers and investors by th'
hundreds where money wasted at Sar
