THE NAVY.
Ready TO Demonstrate Its Superiority as a
Sea-Power.

Commodore Schley, at Fort Monroe, Va,
is all ready 10 move. The most formidable
squadron OF fast fighters ever got together
is complete.
Flying squadrons are the direct outcome
Of dangerous war conditions; they are not
necessities of standing navies in time of
peace, but expeditions of an extraordinary
nature, created only when the Government
fully decides that there is fear of an attack
or that the time is ripe for an attack from
here.
In average rate of speed, in armored pro-
lection, IN cailbcr and number of guns and
in fighting quality and discipline OF men.

entire day in discussion OF the re olution
reported from the Senate Committee on
FOREIGN Relations for the cquisition Of
the islands in the West Indies owned by
Denmark, and the session WAS closed by
the pr ctical withdrawal Of the resolution
by Senator Lodg its author. He stated
that the debate had developed such a W dc
difference OF opinion in the Senate, where
there had heretofore been such unanimity,
that he would not further press the matter
at time when the President needed the
support OF all Senators OF all parties.
This action was preceded by an ami
mated debate, in which many sharp words
were exchanged over the policy OF bring
Jog in d proposition liable to divide the
Senate at "A time when unanimity was
especially desirable, and when all parties
had shown a disposition to give their sup
port to G Administration in preparation
for the war which almost all the speakers
considered probable.
Senator Lodge admitted his long dvo-
cacy Of the acquisition of the Danish pos
sessions, and said he called upon the
President with reference TO the purchase
of the islands, and that not only he, but
the naval officers, had cOncurred in the
opinion that their possession would be of
incstimable value IN case of hostilities in
the West Indies.
Senator Bacon said il would take a year

He Would Not Deny It.

A federal judge lately charged jury in liquor case as follows: "In later years there seems to have been a dis position 10 deny or ignore judicial knowledge as to what constitutes in- tOxicating liquors, and the courts have manifested desire to disavow any ju- dicial knowledge on this subject At the same time some of the courts have not hesitated to impute to juries an ex- tensiye knowledge and information in this regard This court, however, will follow the precedent established by the decision of Chancellor Walworth upon this subject and will assume judicial knowledge concerning intoxicating liquors. In trial in the state of Wis consin, where this question arose in 1883, the trial judge declared that a man must be a driveling idiot who did not know what beer was, and that it was not necessary to prove it to be aD intoxicatnig liquor.
 Later the supreme court of that state, in passing on the charge of the trial judge, declared that his rulings in the case upon this question were not only clearly correct, but if his peculiar manner gave them force and emphasis 1t was not only proper, but commend able This court, therefore, will neither stultify itself nor impeaoh its own ve- racity by telling you that it has not ju- dicial knowledge that the liquor com monly known as whisky is an intoxi- eating liquor or that the drink com monly called whisky cocktail is an Intoxicating drink "-Lease and Com ment

Her Hact-

An American woman who crossed the ocean not long ago was much puzzled by the conduct of her "sta. ble companion" Each day this in. dividual, typical London cocknev would approach the woman and ask if she would mind keeping out of the stateroom during a certain hour. Each day, too, the American woman consented to so absenting herself. though she wondered much what the stable companion could be up t. with such regularity. At last curi oslty was too much for the Ameri- can, and she boldly asked the Lon doner what she wanted with the stateroom for a whole hour every day. "Oh, it's my hact," was the answer; just my hact, that's all. You see, I'm a oontortionist, an I'm comin hover ere to perform in one of the music 'alls, an as to do my hact hevery day for fear I'll get out of practice.

While our information does not

While our information does not come from Superintendent Davis. it IS true that a chlorination plant is to be erected at once at the Annie, and will prove an important factor m the out put of the mine.
 Below the Belcher Is the Red Rock, owned by Little. Askew and Bliss. A hoist is being erected. The mine IS now down 200 feet. Seven men are employed in developing the property. Further north is the Hamilton, Belle and Poland mines. owned by F. NJ. Murphy. There is now 200 tons of ore at the surface, and the mines are considered among the best m that part of the dis trict.
 The LOttie mine, a short distance above the town, has a ten-stamp mill. but Is not operating at present. lt will start up in a short time, as ore IS being packed by burros to the mill from the Postmaster for milling purposes. Thirty men are at work m the Postmaster mine.
 r. w. Uliery has some excellent mines near Big Bug, and is now negotiating a sale for one of them. He has ore in sight worth S2OO a ton.
 Big Bug is a lively camp. The town IS new and growing, new structures going up right along The merchants have faith in the future of that section, aud they are entitled to 1t. The country is full of prospectors, and developed mines make fine showing.
 New Years Eve was properly ob served with a big dance in the school house. where We enjoyed our selves immensely The music was furnished by Geo W. Meade, Dan Reams and Frank Bliss, and was up to date m every respect. Kingsley & Oliver celebrated the occasion bv opening their new saloon, which Is one of the finest places in town.
 The business interests of Big Bug are represented as follows: General merchandise, Mrs. F. Trenberth, as sisted by her daughter, Miss Fannie. Garrett X Av,ryt; baTbers, Dan Reams and NIT. Nasser; saloons, Kingsley X Oliver, Meade * Me Mahon, Johnson X Treuberth and R. F. Burney.

 In the house fusion of anti Hanna republicans aud democrats was formed whereby one of Mir Kur;zs heuteuants, in his fight against Mr. Hauua, defeated John R. Malloy for chief clerk. The lat t-r has held the position for three terms and Is also secretary of the republican state committee. All minor offices were also filled with kurtz anti-Hanna men, so that the prospect for MT. Hanna's reelection looks very dark. As MT.

The Emperor of Germany has shown himself to be a good many kinds of fool in the eyes of numer- ous persons, but it isn't at all likely that he is quite fool enough to deliberately pick quarrel with the United States, as the sensation mon gers say he intends doing.
 II the man who prepared those so-called home rule resolutions or the men who adopted them know of any gross malfeasance in office, on the part of any territorial official, as Is stated positively in one of the Preombles, 1t Is the duty of the one having such positive knowledge to inform the proper officer that the guilty party may be prosecuted.
 President Mckinley could not by single act please more republicans than by annulling MT. Cleveland's s blanket extension of the civil ser wee rules for no other reason than to keep democrats in office. Late Washington advices report the Pres ident as seriously thinking of doing this, or making material modifea- tions in the Cleveland extensions.
  IL Is rather remarkable fact that the parties in a community who find the most fault with the imper- fsctions of the local paper and com plaim that IL does not come up to their standard in the quantity of of news published, are the ones who contribute nothing, or next to noth- ing. for its support. If the news paper fault finders were to chip in Hberally to the support of the local paper, and throw all the patronage Tn their power to IL, they would find that the money thus received by the paper would be expended in its i'm pTOvemeut. We have never yet known a publisher of a country newspaper to amass any money. His ideal of what paper should be is always a little ahead of his means for accomplishment, and all the revenue of the paper, above a living for those dependent on him, is re- invested in the business.

 Lave made several unsuccessful at
 tempts to develop a water supply at
 the mine, and they are still prose
 cutting the work with vigor. They
 are now working at a point on the
 Noche Buena claim, which rests at
 the foot of the mountain near

 ally keen interest felt by
 the proprietors of the property. The
 matter clinging to the drill was
 washed frequently, and the work of sinking for water was combined with prospecting the claim. At a d epth of something less than 100 fee the drill brought up a quantity | of ,iirt that showed remarkable l values in free gold. The computa- tions ,0f the foreman gives the ledge struck value of 5000 to the ten.
 Drilling was continued through the ledge which showed a width of twenty-six feet. No definite esti- mate of the value of the new strike can be made. The nature of the prospecting is a somewhat novel thing in quartz mining in Arizona. But the strike shows that the world will be richer by many millions when the mine has been fully work ed. A well known mining man of Tucson who visited the mine a few days ago said there was Sll,OOO,OO0 in the property without sinking another foot.

Most of 1t shows { the same fine, free gold which met the eye of EIchelberger when he was , trying to climb over the ledge last 1 February.

A TRANsPARENr SCHEME

Certain designing democratic
 politicians of the territory under
 took to have a law passed at the
 last legislature whereby all demo
 cratic territorial officials appointed
 by the governor would be retained
 in office. The bill was introduced ln the legislature and the strongest
 possible pressure wss brought to
 pear on members to secure its pas sage. It completely tied the gov ernor's hands, m so far as removals from office were concerned. The sO-called home rule agitation Is but an offshoot of this same democratic measure with a little seasoning of populism added. It is simply a demo-popuIistic trick. 4 great deal of buncombe has been injected into it for the purpose of deceivIng republicans. As already stated, Arizona has home rule now and has had for the past eight years and there are only two offices in the territory now filled by appointment by the president, which would be made elective under this demo-pop SO called home rule. As the govern ment pays them their salaries 1t Is not rery likely that it will change the order of their selection. Why don't these home rule howlers in clude postmasters, United States judges, United States marshals and attorneys in their list of elective officers. There would be just as much consistency in this as in their present demands.
 When Arizona is admitted as a state and when she throws of the parental care of the general govern ment and pays her own way she will then be permitted to elect all of aer own officers. Until this hap pens We are very strongly of the opinion that the general govern ment will continue to have a voice in the matter as to whom it pays salaries to.
