Satukday, May 4, 1901.
Theue are 3S23 millionaires in
America and less than tweuty good
poets. Many millionaires arc made
and not born.
The banker down tit Alonto Carlo is
reported to be in a cold sweat for fear
J. Pierpont Morgan may deoide to
stop off there.
The publication of the Daily Review
of Bisbee has been resumed. V.B.
Kelly who has been makinj; a splendid
weekly will bo the publisher of the
dally. Via trust that the daily may
be even more successful than has been
the weekly.
The rain fall of Wednesday was gen
eral over the territory. Rain at any
time in Arizona is a blessing, and
every rainfall is of bene lit. The storm
of the week assures crops in this sec
tion as it does also abundance of grass
on our ranges.
C. W. Crouse, of Phoenix, has been
appointed Indiaa agent at the Fort
Apache agenoy. The appointment
was coveted by a number of Arizona
olllce seekers. It is a sigular circum
stance that it is only within tho past
four years that an Aiizonlan has
wanted an Indian agency.
The new school law sets aside the
first Friday after the last day in April
as Atbor day in the four northern
counties of Arizona. The day was not
observed here. Tho idea of having the
school children plant trees is an ex
cellent one and the day should be
observed even if but few of tho trees
planted should grow.
The oil excitement has reached
Utah. The petroleum found in boring
for water east of Aspen tunnel was
amilyized.and found equal to the t'etin
sylTania product. Tbou-ands of loca
tions have been made along the Union
Pacific in Wyoming and Utah. Cap
italists from Chicago and Omah have
secured largo tracts of land and will
bore for oil.
FARM hands are in demand in the
Salt River valley. A farmer of that
place advertises for a farm hand guar
anteeing one dollar per day, a good
bed, three meals u day and as a further
Inducement a lunch of custard pie and
a drink of good liquor before going to
bed. The only drawback to tho job
seems to be that the farmer requires
the hand to work between meals.
The Santa Fo will make an exhibit
at the Buffalo exposition Ibis summer.
In that section devoted by the govern
ment to a postal exhibit 100 photo
graphs prepared by the Santa Fe will
s-how how a letter makes a trip across
the country from Chicago to San Fran
cisco. The Grand Canyon, as painted
by II. S. Marella, of Chicago, will be
shown by the electrical diagram.
THE idea that the earth is fast be
coming settled up and that there can
be no extension to its agricultural area
is true only in a theoretical sense.
Tho ability of scientific agriculture to
enlarge its capacity has not yet be
gun to come to realization. When it
is reallz'ed'lhat there 'are whole em
pires of rich land only awaiting tho
application of tho water at hand to
in nice them break Into bloom and
great productiveness, it can be seen
that instead of tho world's acreage
being incapable of expansion, tho end
of its expansion in 'productivity has
not yet come into sight.
Phoenix is preparing moro adver
tising for that placo which will be
circulated In the east during the sum
mer months. Tho board of trade of
that city have just issued a neat
pamphlet entitled. "The Salt River
Valley. Its Attractions for tho Capital
ist, tho Invalid and tho Immigrant."
The people of that enterprising place
believe'in keeping everlastingly at it,
consequently it is the point which at
tracts all the visitors to the territory.
It might bo well for other towns in
Arizona to Tollow the example of Phoe
nix iu 'making their resources and
attractions known outside of tho ter
ritory. Flagstaff for iustauce.
IT has been held by tho Interior
department that the Oregon Short
Line has tho right to the disputed
grade in Nevada, and Mr. Clark and
h'is associates will, if they; continue
their ,ro.d,f have to ,do so on another
route. If Senator Clatk and his as
sociates desire to build a railroad it
might be well for them to go a little
further east and fill in the gup that
exists between tho western terminal
of the Rock Island and Missouri Pacific
roads and tho Pucitlc coast. These
roads are now building through Now
Mexico and both can be reached at
somo point near Santa Fe, and from
that point to Los Angeles a much
shorter route can be had than by any
of tho present roads. It would secure
for Mr. Clark the outlet for his mines
at Jerome that he has so long been
looking for.
The Arid Reilort.
Tho arid region of this couutry is
larger than the entire area -of some of
the nations of the earth. It Includes
portions of Montana, Wyoming, Colo
rado, Utah, Nevada; Arizona and New
Mexico, and smaller portions of North
and South Dakota, Nevada, Kansas
and Texas, hundreds of thousands of
acres In California, two-thirds of Ore
gon, one-third of Washington, and al
most all of Idaho altogether a total
of ovc a mjlllon square miles, enough
in fact to accommodate half the peo
ple of tho United States when the
land is made productive. To allow all
this splendid country to go to waste
would be .contrary to the spirit of a
practical nation. All this arid land
needs is irrigation. Already a large
part of It has been converted to fer
tility by tho artificial supply of water.
Gradually and strongly the experts of
the government have urged upon con
gress a policy of-asslstanco which will
convert many of these acres into fer
tile fields. Alhnquerque Cltizeu.
A Fast Train.
The Southern Pacific officials have
completed all necessary arrange
ments to carry President McKinley
and his party from Yuma to Los An
geles at the ruto of sixty-five miles an
hour. This comany never under
takes to do anything that it falls to
accomplish, and the distinguished
party will cross tho California desert
at this tremendous rate of speed. The
president, however, has become ac
customed to running ut u fast rate of
speeed, as is shown by the manner in
which he carried off the honors of two
presidential races. It is stated that
he never lost a race in his life.

Advertising Is the
ro.ul to wealth for the
merchant.
The up-to-dato ad
vertiser Is the one
who wins tho conti
deuce of patrons.
Somo peoplo fear
publicity a good deal
more than their own
conscience, (loot! ad
vertisers are afraid of
neither.
A little in each ad
vertisement and many
advertisements is usu
ally regarded as tho
correct princtpio on
which to proceed.
Ilefore you can get
people to talk about
ou, you must do some
talking yourself in
tho columns of a good
newspaper-The Sun.
Advertising Is tho
best habit a merchant
can afford to Indulge
In without Injury to
himself or his busi
ness Industry. Try It
In The Sun.
Tub Sun Is tho best
nnd largest paper In
Coconino county. It
Is the only paper de
voted to locai news

number of readers.
Everyman who has
gone through the door
of success will tell

the way of Judicious

ADVERTISING. )
The Way to Use It
Successfully.
Advertise contlnu-'
ously, business will ,
tollow. A pile driver
accomplishes Its work '
by constant pounding.
That Is tho wuy suc
cessful business men '
win trado-by constant
advertising. Tho pile
driver cannot sink a
long stick with one or,
two blows-there must
bo steady, preslstcnt ,
work. No moro can a
business man hope to
win a big business by
one or two advertise- '
mcnls. He must keep
constantly before the
public, day after dnv,
month utter month
and j ear after jear.
lly such means a store
becomes an establish
ed institution, secure (
in Its position, it It
keeps up-to-date In
every thing. The
slightest suspenlon
In effort will be taken I
advantage of by jour
shrewd competitors. '
The worst pluco to ,
allow exertion to re
lax is In advertising, i
for that sort of thing
attracts notice of un
undesirable kind. Yet i
there arc business J
men who consider It
wise to stop advertis
ing altogether. How
can they so view the
matter when they see '
fortunes made by ad
vertising? The cost for news
paper advertising In
Tiik Sun Is low when
circulation Is consid
ered. Therefore every
business mnn-wheth- .
or doing a one-man or
a loo-man trade can
afford to advertise.
