that to ii considerable ext-nt they are

i is my opinion, substantiated by those
far better qualified than myseit lo
express an opinion, that Arizona is
on the eve of a niinina: excitement
which will effect the whole conntiy,
greater than lias ever been experi
enced by any olher portion ol the
Pacific coast. If the present state of
a flairs in the social and business
world is considered, it will readily
be perceived that circumstances are
rapidly combining to make the time
ripe for this. Pui-insr my stay here I
have had frequent calls from person-,
