Land of the Southwest.
The Irrigation Age says Arizona
and New Mexico are emerging from
the shadows.
The sunlight of prosperity and
territorial advancement are light
ing up the hills and valleys of the
southwest and today there is every
indication that these territories are
about ready fpr the responsibilities
of self government. Irrigation has
of late years been the most potent
factor in the upbuil ling of these
territories. The grand possibilities
for success, both fr >m a financial
and agricr.ltural standpoint, have
invited capital and immigration,
land reclamation is in full swing all
over these sections of the broad
southwest.
Arizona is fortunate in her natu
ral conditions for irrigation progress
Much has been done and much re
mains to be done in the work of
bringing water to the thirsty soil.
Today there are 500 miles of cauals
exclusive of laterals, delivering
water to the land, reclaiming an
area of nearly 350,000 acres of
land. It is safe to say that the
present water development is ca
pable of reclaiming fully five times
that amount of land, and if this
were accomplished it would be but
the beginning. Sufficient water
could be impounded in the territory
of Arizona to render fertile 20,-
000,000 acres of land. The water
is there, the land is there and crops
would be a certainty; but the capi
tal to be invested is wanting. Give
Arizona the public lauds now lying
within her borders and she will
receive a stimulus of growth and
prosperity such as is difficult of
comprehension.
There is a future and a brilliant
one for these two territories of the
southwest. Irrigation is the key
to the situation. Irrigation will
yet make these lsnds as fruitful as
they were in prehistoric times.
Martin Maier’s well-known dog,
“Carlo,” has mysteriously disap
peared . When last seen he was
passing over the can’t-I-leave-her
foot bridge, going west. Carlo was
cut out for a small deg, but for
years his sole drink was beer and
his food dry crackers. He kept
full on beer all the time, until he
became so bloated that his body
was almost as broad as long, and
his little dog legs were entirely too
weak to support his big dog body,
and he posed as a '‘horrible example”
of the beer habit to the balance of
the canine race. He was a com
mon drunk and drank like a dog,
and no self-respecting dog would
notice hi n. H Aiay have poison
ed himself by drinking some water
since the saloon closed.—Prescott
Courier.
The effect of the South Carolina
liquor law has been to greatly re
duce the traffic in intoxicating
liquors. Whpn the law went into
effect on the first of July last, there
were 887 retail, and 14 wholesale
dealers in the statp, employing
about five thousand men. Now
there are only forty dispensaries.
The sales of three of these in the
! city of Columbia i n mated in Au
gust to three thousand nine hun
dred and forty-thi ee dollars as
against sales by thirty-eight saloons
nnder the old law amounting to
■ thirty-eight, thousand dollars. Es
timating the sales in the state at
large at the same average, there
was a reduction in the amount oi
liquor sold in the state in a single
month of over eight hundred thou
sand dollars.—Leslies. *
M. G. Samaniego, in from the
round-ups, says that this year he
sees fifty head of stock where a
few years ago were 500. He says
the late stock losses were awful.
So depressed was the cattle busi
ness last spring that he had an op
portunity to buy a brand of stock
all complete, ranch, corrals, every
thing, for $4.75 a head. Owing to
illness he could not visit the ranch
at the time. Meanwhile raim
came on, grass grew, and cattle
stopped dying. Now the cattle are
worth $5 more than they were of
fered for. The cattle are not now
for sale.—Citizen.
Twelve of the Jerome freight
teams have been withdrawn, owing
to the decrease in the yroduct of
the mine. The new refinery has
been started up, and instead of
shipping the product in the form of
matte as heretofore it is now re
duced to bullion. The 80-ton fur
nace and the refinery are still run
ning. During the . past summer
there have been twenty-eight teams
of from bwelvj to twenty-eight
animals each engaged in freighting
to Jerome. The number has been
reduced now to sixteen.—Journal-
Miner.
The Arizona Leader says the big
South Gila d tin work will be re
sumed the first of the year. The
canal company has paid up 1 all its
debts due the workmen from the
contrecfcors and have sufficient
funds on hand to resume work on
the dam, which will be done next
month. Everything is in tiptop
shape for the early completion of
this work. Engineer J. Crouse,
the irrigation expert sent over from
London to examine the project, was
greatly pleased with it and the
work done.
In retiring from the land office,
Mr. Brown carries with him the
thanks of ev3ry mvn in Southern
Arizona who had any business du
ring the last four years in the land
office. No officer ever served the
people of Arizona more satisfactor
ily than Herbert Brown. He’d
make a race for governor.
Honest as the day is long, one of
the plain people, old timers would
jump political fences all over Ari
zona to flock to his support.—Gra
ham County Bulletin.

A representative of the Denver
Record is expected here in a few
days to Write up the resources of
this section on the usual plan at so
much per line. Outside papers as
a rule can do a thriving business in
this line while the local papers
would be looked upon as on a par
with highwaymen if they asked re
muneration for such a purpose.—

Peter Caffrey is still turning out
: rich gold ore from his mine, the
( Vigilant on Stockton Hill. He
r has the shaft down ten feet and
r will soon have to put up a wind
lass to hoist the waste. The ore
, contisues as rich as on the surface
. and if it a depth of 20
. feet he will be able to take out ten
. or fifteen thousand dollars in ora

the local fellows who come in from
the hills with gold bricks in their
pockets.
