NBBRASKAN IRRIGATORS.
Speak of Eventually Watering the
 Whole of Their State.

Away back at Lincoln, Nebraska, there has been a three days session of the state horticulturists, especially for a discussion of irrigation. Lute Will COX was there from Denver with his maps and hundred or more Nebraska farmers participated.
 Arizonans have little idea of the progress of irrigation in Nebraska. J. A. Fort, of North Platte, is authority for the statement that over 100000 acres can now be irrigated in the state from existing canals. One million more will be supplied from projected canals. The water supply, obtained from the Platte, the Loup, the French man, the Republican and other rivers is sufficient to irrigate in all 3,000,000 acres. This leaves in the state 46,- 000,O0O acres of land to irrigate through other means. He believes the answer will be found in windmills and wells. There is little lack of underground water and about sixteen hours of wind day.
 Nebraska will be heavily repre- scented at our approaching irrigation congress and will not only imbibe ideas at the fountainhead of irrigation, but will attempt to take east to Lin coin the sixth session of the congress.

The money of the country is rap idly accommodating in the New York banks, the reserve being above the legal requirements, having doubled in the past month. There has been a corresponding increase in the number of important commercial failures. The concentration of miney into bank vaults practically amounts to a con traction of the currency of the coun- try and contraction of the currency, however brought about, is always fol- lowed by disaster in commercial cir cleS.

HAMBURGER, HOLMAN & CO.,
 MAKERS, NEW YORK.

Their version of the affair is that the Indian with the pistol was anxious to pawn it for something to eat and pulled it out for that purpose, but his actions being misinterpreted he retail iated by shooting at Earll. MT. Smith says further that the Indians there abouts would produce the men, but for fear of being misunderstood and sent to jail.
 MT. Earll and wife think differently They believe that the Indians in- tend to murder them and as they were not ready to put on the golden slip pers they pulled out for Casa Grande at the first opportunity, where they now reside.

A GROUNDLESS SCARE.
How an EXcitable Woman Assumed
 an Indians Hostility.

Tucson Citizen: MT. D. H. Smith is in from the Locomotive mine, west of the Quijotoa. Referring Ito the late reported holdup at that place of Tom Earll and wife at the store of Cum mings & Earll, he says that the entire affair was a groundless scare. Two Papagos and a Yaqui Indian, he says, had been to celebration on tIhe Gila and reached Earll's at about S:30. They asked for hay for their horses. This was sold them, Earll's wife going along and carrying candle for light. The Indian to whom the hay was sold car ried it to the horses about fifty yards away. In the meantime Earll and wife returned to the house. Just as they were about to enter the wife saw an Indian, who stood near the door, pull pistol. She screamed, fell back wards over woodpiie and tainted. Earll fired three shole at the Indians and the Indians fired two at him, but so far as can be learned no one was hurt, although Earll is of the opinion that he wounded one, as he claims to have discovered blood on a bush near by.
 When the wife recovered she en- tered the house and assisted her hus- band in barring Sh door. Of course both firmly believe the Indians in tended to kill them and then rob the store, but MT. Smith says the Indians whereabouts maintain differently.

A CRAZY FREAlK.

If the British government has gone clean daft it may be contemplating the purchase of Cuba Otherwise the idea is incredible. The Salisbury cabinet has to answer for it's deeds to the British voters who would never sanction or forgive such an exhibition of political insanity .f7r
 England has already more colonies lhan she can manage, and the popular sentiment there is against extension, and for the development and consoli- dation of their present overgrown possessions This was plainly ex- pressed so recently as last week by Arthur Balfour.
 Cuba would be in every way the eostliess and most troublesome pos session Great Britain ever acquired. The inhabitants are in rebellion, and would be more rebellious under Eng land than they are under Spain. The populace is not only of another race and civilization, but it is positively antagonistic to British methods and policies. Would England buy seeth- ing revolution?
 Then Graat Britain knoWs that the United States would never consent to the transaction. It would mean war of the bitterest and most unrelenting kind: The country would resist and would certainly prevent the occupa- tion of Cuba by Britain. I. would be intolerable and absurd to allow the island commanding our whole south coast to be absorbed by a power like England.
 If war were actively in process be- tween the two ountries it would be inl1elligible that England might try to buy Cuba as base of operations. On no other suposition can it be under stood.
 England is not seeking war with the United States. She will do anything to avoid it. Why should she buy Cuba?

Ex-Sena5or Ingalls is doubtless an entertaining lecturer, but if he wants to go back to the senate he must spend some time in fence repairing. His strength lies among the masses of the Kansas people. The politicians are mostly opposed to him. There is undoubtedly an Ingalls, sentiment, but it will have to be encouraged and cul- tivated AS a practical politician MT. Ingalls, is a failure. He needs a shrewd, able manager. Thus equipped he might be formidable candidate. Otherwise his chances will be slim. The time when man can obtain a United States senatorship by merely expressing a desire for it has passed in Kansas. MT. Ingalls, will have to work.

lection. It only contemplates resist ance in case of forcible seizure of American territory. The interests of the United States are just as much in- fringed upon if a European nation eX- tends it's power on this continent by purchase or compromise of any ind, as if it did it by violence. The thing to be resisted is the building up at our very doors of powers which are out of sympathy with our spirit and institutions, which would be in time of crisis a menace to our security, and which would therefore necessitate a perpetual and monstrous expense for the maintenance of an armament capa- ble of resisting them.

THE TRUE MONROE DOCTRINE

The Davis resolution clearly and definitely reaffirming the Monroe doc Urine has been favoraIbly reported by the senate committee on foreign af- fairs and this week it will be thor oughly discussed in the senate The necessity of a reafirmation of the great American doctrine is intensified by the very lame and halting exposi- tion of the doctrine given in President CleVeland's message. The notion that England is dickering for Cuba and for an extension of her territory in Brit ish Guiana brings the matter into ad- ditional prominence.
 The gist of the Monroe doctrine was well stated in the words of Thomas Jefferson: We will oppose with all our means the forcible interposition of any other power as auxiliary, stipen- diary, or under any other form or pre- text, and most especially the transfer (of the possession of American sl5ates) to any power by conquest, cession or acquisition in any other way" <
 Mr Cleveland's version or. perver- sion of this doctrine, as given in his message, is much narrower in scope. much more illogical and open to ob-

OFF FOR THEfWARS.
A Soldier Bold Who Would Save His
 Country.

He was a very soldierly young man. His favorite "reminiscences were of what he did last summer as assistant surgeon in the Iowa National Guard, ranking first lieutenant He would relate by the hour how he had dosed the "boys of the regiment" of his numerous acquisitions for liquor, which he faithfully divided around, and told word for word of his accept ance to his colonel of his promotion. When news of the projected purchase of Cuba came he grew excited. He was sure the Iowa National Guard would acquit themselves with honor and glory and he declared he would leave at once for Des Moines in the event of a war with England.
 He lives on the other young men in the Hubbard building and they were the auditors of his war stories. They are responsible for his latest war ex- perience.
 He was encouraged in the talk of war with England. He does not read the papers and they gave him to un- derstand that war was imminent At breakfast they discussed the Cuban question, and his patriotism grew. He supposed that the Iowa guard would be sent to the Canadian from tier, being so far north, while the Ma tional guard of the southern states would go to Cuba.
 The young men of the Hubbard build ing learned the name of his colonel, and that his home was at Oskaloosa. When the young man came in there was a telegraph envelope awaiting him, inscribed Lieutenant Park T. Finley, Paid' There was silence for the space of half minute and he rushed out, waving a message. Good bye, boys. Pm going to Iowa. Look at this!" The telegram read:
 OSKALOOSA, la, Jan. 21, 7:45 p. m.
 Lieut.. Park A. F'inley-Report for duty at your headquarters, Jan. 27th, 10 a. m ALBERT w. SWALM,
 Colonel.
 'Fellows," he said, 'I'm going! I'm going on the next trainp Then fol lowed wise counsel. He was urged that it would be folly with his weak lungs to make the trip. It would be cold, away below zero, on the Canadian frontier, and his health would give way before it. "Yes," he said, "it might give me pneumonia" Still his patriotism abounded. What of that ? I don't want ito play the baby act. when the old colonel himself sends for me, you bet I'm going" To his sor- row no train left till this morning and there was vexatious delay. He was again urged that ito go to the Canadian frontier would be fatal to him. Above all, it was insisted that he do no wiring till he heard from his father in Des Moines, which should surely occur, and on that he should act. There was vain watching yesterday for a telegram from his father. To the hour of going to press none had arrived. Should there be at the Santa Fe station this morning an erect young man with a wild determined eye, leading a 30O- pound clipped cayuse that is said to be ''just the thing for fighting Canadians,

Esquimau Ruins.
By far the most interesting ruins on
the coast were those we found near the
entrance to Nachvack bay. 1t was evil
dent from their appearance that they
had never been visited by desecrating
strangers, and even the natives dis
claimed all knowledge of them. Upon
a narrow strip of beach at the foot OF
precipitous ravine, cutting the crest
of the mountainous cliffs which over
hang the sea, half buried in shingles
and weighted with a heavy covering of
turf and moss, are the well-preserved
remains of what was once the residence
Of Il populous tribe. The main entrance
had been formed by setting upon end
the lower jawbone of a whale. This
led into a broad passageway, from
which smaller ones branched at irreg-
ualr intervals, and which terminated
at the various family apartments, or
habitations. Whales bones entered
largely into the construction of the
whole, no other material having been
used for supports. Nachvacl1 is far be-
yond the northern tree limit of the
coast, and these were doubtless the best
substitute for timbers which could be
procured. The vertebrate of whales had
been used as stools and for various
other purposes; the framework of
kayaks and komatiks, skin boats and
sledges, were of bone and horn; the
weapons and implements were of stone,
bone, horn and ivory. Enough of these
were present to have filed ship, but
not a scrap of iron or other metal could
be found.-Outing.

one Of the vagaries Of Memory.

a child of American parents was
born in Spain, and, although the Ian
guage of the family was English, she
learned to speak Spanish fiuently. She
then returned to America and went to
a boarding-school where French was
the only language spoken. OF course,
hearing no Spanish, the child gradu-
ally seemed to forget it. Her knowl-
edge of French was perfect, and that
she used as well as English When she
became an elderly lady her health
failed her, and she sank INTO condi-
ton Of physical and mental weakness.
After a time her attendants observed
that she seemed not to understand any
thing that was spoken ii English, but
convcrsed in French with ease. and
comprehended whatever was said to
her in that tongue. At last she lapsed
into long interval of semi conscious
ness, during which she understood
nothing. During the last days of her
life she suddenly rallied, and her com
mand Of Spanish came back to her, so
that she talked fuently IN it and thor
oughly understood it. AS case of men
tai lapse and popularity OF memory,
this is considered quite worthy ofnote.
