Iilu. Acr.'sTi.N DE Itckhide, known as
"Prince lturbide," who is now in New
| York, has written a letter to his mother
I in the City of Mexico, assuring her that
J the statements ■ recently juit into his
; month by a reporter of the New York
Associated Press are absolutely false. In
the interview it was stated that he had
spoken in harsh terms of the Diaz admin-
istration and the liberal party, and that
the "prince," as successor to Maximilian,
was biding his time. The Monitor lie
publieano says lie ought lo have in ulc
this denial public over his own signature.

UNEQUALLED OPPORTUNITY.
The opportunity for acquiring the rich
lands of the Salt River valley, which just
now presents itself has never ImetfVfpirtl-
led wherever lands have been sold, for
there has been very little land of gtfch in-
trinsic value sold for What lands can now
be had, here. Taking the cost o! prov-
ing up,water right,clearing and ditching,
land in large quantities can be bought at
not to exceed $25 per acre, and this is
for land already for planting a crop and
turning water into the ditches. The day
such land is sown to alfalfa'and bears
the first crop il is worth $100 an acre,
and the day it has shown' one years'
growth <>f fruit trees it is.worth $200 to
$250 per acre—will command that money
without hesitation, Does atiylKSdy sup (
pose for a minute that our valley will j
lonix go begging tinker such effeepmst an
ces for purchasers—men who buy to im-
prove, to raise alfalfa and stock, to raise
all the great variety of fruits and grapes,
to make wine and produce raisins? The
Herald thinks not, Every acre, of land
now offered for farming or fruit purposes
in this valley is intrinsically, urorth all
that is asked for it—will make a large re-
turn per cent on the investment. A few
days ago th© Herald published a verj
practical article on raisin making which
showed that at the most reasonable and
practical estimate an acre of land in rais-
in grapes at five years old produced $95
per acre net—a clear profit. Suppose
there were no returns from the day the
vines were planted to the five ye&r season,
even then it pays for the land, allows
$10 a year fur improvements to be put
on the land for five years and at the end
of that time produces a net profit of $20
per acre. In other words the land is paid
for, the vines arc in full bearing, and the
rancher is fairly on the road to wealth
with $20 yer acre for his laud in his pock
et, or on a quarter section of land, 100
acres, he lias a net profit of $3,200. At
the price asked per acre we opine that
there will not be an acre of land left in
the valley inside of a year - Plnenix,
(Arizona,) Herald.
Every word of the above is true, The
same is doubly true of the Kio Grande
valley above and below El Paso.

great debate will be on the proposal to change J
the name of the church, wherein Bishop Kan- I

such champions of the change as Bishops Sey-
mour and Thompson, and Judge I'rinee. At.-
