THE PRIZE ESSAY

The growth of a country depends on the intelligence of it's people, it's industries, resources, agriculture, government, its climate etc. ,Un- less these things are encouraged and looked after they cannot be of use in developing the country.
 The five northern counties, name ly, Mohave, Coconino, Yavapai, Navajo, and Apache are about the same in their surface features all having mountainous desert lands. Therefore they have nearly the same industries, products and eli mate. It is not impossible for them to unite and become one of the most prosperous sections of the United States.
 We see by the many Indian ruins which are found in all the northern counties that the Indians which have inhabited these places were developing the land similarly to a certain extent. AS people visit these different ruins they no- tice that the Indians have had similar material to work with. These counties still have the same soil and resources and it is much easier for them to produce the same things and therefore become one great prosperous section.
 In these counties are some very intelligent, ambitious and indust- rious people. These people have the most beautiful scenery and sur roundings also the best climate and air in the world.
 People from all over the world are known to visit these counties in search of health, pleasure and wealth. If by chance they are at one of these Frontier Day celebra- tions they see what the cattlemen are doing and they find out that Northern Arizona is full of live wide awake men as we'll as other states and countries. When they go away they talk about the possi- bilities of this country and as a result of their advertising some of the best hard working and honest men come here which are always the best thing country can have.
 The Frontier Day celebration brings the cattiemen and cowboys into close relation and strong friendship, they learn and see things which other men are doing that they on account of living so tar apart, have not known before. AS result of the thin population these fairs are their meeting places.
 At the Northern Arizona fair men try to excel each other as to their products. If man sees that he can by hard and watchful work take the "blue ribbon" he does it and in this way he works to i'm prove his seed, his farm imple ments or whatever it may be until he has developed his crop into something which will be of help to his countrymen and his county.
 If while looking at the specimens person sees method that he thinks would be of use in improv- ing that thing he speaks about it to some friend or to the men near by and soon number of men get, to talking about it and exchanging ideas. This often brings about valuable results. In this way each man becomes an individual agent in helping to develop hls county.

And through the balls soft beats the pulsing
From mystic wings, and on the haunted ear
Come footballs, stealing down the frosty

Ho, there, Old yearl 'Tis hard to say farewell,
Fen though the perfnmed censor bodies thy
DEATH Q
Stay thou the ivied bells that toll thy knell,
vouchsafe blessing with thy Heeting
BREATH
Mysterious creature of the hoary beard.
A shriveied myth, the youthful dream of
agel
Once strong OF life, respected and revered,
Nov at the eual exit of the stagel
when youth was keen and sI before made
way.
And orioles sang. and eager fingers brought
Rlysisn flowers to crown the queen of May
The night wears ool HaTk to the Banshee's
song!
See. all the tenants of the ehureh-yard

Her shriH dirge swells the starless night
along,
And 10th, we know, old friend, that We
must part.
A long farewell! SLOW swings the changing

Whose b-azen tongue proclaims high over
head:.
Peace be on earth, good win to man, Iall's

Forgivel Aye, let the dead past bury its
dead!''

Correspondence.

NORTH PESoBscor, Dec. 25, 1914

NORTH PEsoBscor, Dec. 2s, 1919.
To the Editor of The American;
am forcibly reminded OF late OF the
great loss which the republican party and
Hancock county have sustained in the
death of leading citizens within brief
period of years.
The recent death OF Hon. Elmer p.
Spofford draws the curtain again over the
cematery OF the past, and removes from
political activity one OF our shrewdest and
most successful politicians, a safe coun-
ciIor and compsnionsble man.
A little earlier had fallen Judge Chase,
whose patent influence in many g bard
fought campaign was widely felt, and
who, with heart for any fate,n pressed
his way up in political life against great
odds.
And tresher still in the hearts OF our
own townsmen is the passing OF Postmas-
ter b. II. Cushman. one of our staunch,
lifelong republicans, ever to the front,
strong intellectually, and whose in
fiuence, however silent, was widely felt;
and also l.. A. Snowman, ex-represents-
tive, a veteran war horse in politics, a
man of sterling character and sound to
the core.
And then, too, ex-senator and POST
master Guy McAlister, OF Bucksport, one
OF the sbiest man who has helped to guide
the politics OF that town for the past forty
years, and make it in its prime one of the
strongholds OF repu blicanism in this
county, and also Hon. Parker Spoford,
who had won a high place in the con-
fidence of his party by his sterling viz
tues.
And our memory still refuses to forget
the grand old man OF Eden, Hon. Eben
Hamor, who at his best was one OF the
regal forces in Hancock politics, a man
strong both in mind and character.
And then comes Castine, vita William
witherie, a man of culture and character,
with broad views and the power to ex
press them; and George Warren, the man
popular, Who in his paimiest days exerted
powerful influences in Hancock politics,
and easily won political tavors.
Who will rise up to I'll the ranks sadly
depleted by so long list OF citizens OF
uuIsUat iuttitiEcHSo. NpAAu anu AuAueuGts
and who contributed, in a marked degree,
to the prestige OF the party, and to the
business interests of our towns and
county, Win the public spirit and party
fervcr Of the few guiding spirits that led
and aroused our county conventions in
the years past during a period OF magnifi-
cent victories be more generally difused
through the mass of our citizens, and high
ideals and far-reaching principles sway
and guide the action OF party, once great
in size aud results and broad in vision?

T'o the Editor Of The american:
Just a word of good cheer to all my
good friends in Ellsworth this Christmas
tide. For you all it will be pretty much
the same sort OF Christmas as it was a
year ago; but what a change for US who
are living on this side OF the Atlanticl
Ii cannot be very merry one for us, but
for the sake OF thefchildren we have got to
treat it with smiling faces. And yet, af-
ter all, things might have been a great
deal worse
Our hearts will be with the gallant men
in the trenches, no matter on which side
they may be fighting; brave men who are
doing their duty that those they guard
may rest in peace around their own
Christmas trees. Everything posi- BILE
will be done to make the lot OF the home
less sufferers as pleasant as possible under
the circumstances; looking forward, az
the same time, that they may be back
again in their own homes, perhaps next
Christ mas, or the Christmas following at
the latest.
My heart is with you all, and 1 am look
ing back TO the very happy time when
was a resident of Ellsworth. / was indeed
a stranger, out never felt like it. Some
day, perhaps, IL will be my good fortune
to pay you another visit; meanwhile let
me wish you all very happy Christmas.
