IN AN AWKWARD POSITION.
London Times Comment ON the
Lee Incident-Spain's Cons
plicity in the Maine Disaster.

London, March 8.-The Times
says editorially this morning:
eff Spain is placed in an awk-
ward position respecting the
Lee incident, she must thank the
indiscretion of her foreign Office.
She cannot blame President Me-
Kinley. MIR. Cannon's bill can
hardly be explained by the Lee
incident. It is probably due to
the rumor that Spain is purchas,
ing war vessels.
eve do not believe that Spain
desires war, but if she does this
evidence Of Americas alertness
offers a most efectual check.
President Mckinley appears to
be adherlng Loyalty to the policy
of frmness, caution aud pacific
circumspection he has hitherto
pursued. No doubt he has the
support Of the sober and coz
scientious mass of the American
people, but he has had to face
outbursts of popular clamor that
a weaker man might have mis-
taken for the voice Of the coun-
try.
The completely of the Spanish
Government in the Maine disas-
ter is a hypothesis too monstrous
and irrational to be entertained;
and, except that, there is nothing
impossible of arrangement be-
tween Spain and America, while
the intractable nature Of Cuba's
disorders cannot but inspire
thoughtful Americans with a Sc
rious doubt as to the wisdom Of
annexation"

W. r Gibson OF La Junta, is max
ing proposition to the people Of the
valley, which those of small means,
who wish to work out home for
themselves, cannot afford to ignore
The following article taken from that
great Journal, the Irrigation Era
will explain his proposition:
'.NIr. Gibson has an irrigation en-.
terprise north of La Junta along the
line of the Missouri Pacific that is
deserving of attention, for the canal
has been nearly completed, not more
than $500 would be required in ad-
dition to place it in working order,
aud a large amount Of most excellent
land would be covered by the same.
The supply water for the canal is
taken from Adobe Creek and con
Quoted into natural reservoir COW
ering over $50 acres, and when theca
nal is completed and the reservoir
filled, something like 1000 acres Of
very valuable land can be covered,
Mr.. Gibson proposes now in order to
finish the construction of the canal, to
sell water rights to those who may
come in and take up the land from the
government, allowing them to pay for
the water right by work on the CON
struction of the canal, paying him only
81 cash per acre, the balance in labor,
and we believe this is an opportunity
for many deserving man to secure
an excellent home with an outlay of
but small amount of money"
