The following from the International .l IndnstriaI Record, published at Fl Paso, Texas, is worthy of careful con. sideration for future use in Arizona:
 The land bill introduced in the house of representatives by Messrs Garner, Murphy and Wright is the product of careful and painstaking labor by legislators who have given the matter thorough study and are moved by purpose to subserve the best interests of the state.
 This much being understood, the pending measure must challenge res pectful attention. if not immediate endorsement and ought to be consi- dered as pretty clearly covering the ground.
 The bill provides that all lands heretofore or hereafter surveyed and set apart for the benefit of the public free schools the several asylums of the state lying within the districts named shall be leased or sold under the pro- visions of the act and all such sale. shall be m, de by the commissioner of the Land office or under his direc- tion For the purpose of classifying and fixing the prices at which the lands may be sold the state is to be divided into districts All timbered lands are to be sold for not less than l $2 an acre and for cash only.

Similar lands in district No. are to be sold as above at the rate of 75 cents an acre and in quan- titIes not to exceed twenty five sec-' tions, terms being in each case that 0ne-tenth of the principal sum, to- gether with one years interest in ad- vance upon the balance of the pur- chase price shall be paid in cash, one-tenth in one year from the date of purchase and the remainder divided into sixteen equal payments to he made annually thereafter until the debt is discharged. The rate of in terest is to be per cent per annum and provision is made for forfeiture in case of failure to meet payments with in reasonable time.

could only go into every home and tell
each wife, sister, or daughter, and warn
them against trusting any man with
their virtue. I would say to them that
no man, however fair he may seem. can
be trusted with their dearest possession.
I would warn them to be careful OF their
associates; to guard themselves against
this temptation that dragged me down"

Otis and the Filipino ENJOYS.

Otis and the Filipino ENJOYS.
Manila, April 29.-Tne second con-
ference between General Otis and the
Filipino commissioners took place TINS
morning, and lasted three hours. 1t
was again without results and the Fill
pino envoys, Col. Manuel Arguelles and
Lieut.. Jose Bernel returned to the in
surgent lines this afternoon. Admiral
Dewey and Prof. Shurman, OF the Phil
ippines Commission were present dur
ing the parley. The Filipino officers
simply renewed the request made yes
terday for u cessation of hostilities Tor
three weeks, to enable them 90 call
their Congress to decide whether to
continue the prosecution Of war or pro-
pose terms of peace. Their contention
was that Aguinaldo, Luna and other
leaders had not the power to surrender
without the sanction of their Congress.
Gen. Otis emphatically refused the re-
quest for an armistice on those condl-
tons but promised full amnesty on sur.
render. The Americans, he said, did
not and would not recognize the So
called Filipino Congress or government
After long parley, the meeting broke
up and the ENJOYS returned to
the Filipino lines on the afternoon
train. While the two days negotia-
tons have thus far been barren of re
suits, the best opinion in Manila both
among the Americans and the promi
nent natives is that the incident is the
beginning of the end. The Filipino en-
voys practically admitted that their
army was in desperate straits and thor
oughly whipped. 1t is believed thai
the Filipinos will now ask for further
conference, and that they will finally
surrender on the best terms possible tc
obtain.
The only concession made by Gene
raj Otis during the conference was al
offer ofamnesty to the Filipinos condl
tioual upon their complete surrender
Prof. Schurman, president of the Phil
ippines Commission, was interviewed
| today. He said: 81 regard the steps
taken by the Filipinos as the beginning
of the end. / believe in the persona
sincerity of General Luna's envoy;
! though perhaps tney are lSuolanu y
the political Vaccinations of their lead
ers. expect, however, that the en-
voys will return with new PROPOSE
ton"
The general opinion here is that thu
Filipino forces became iemoralizec
after the capture of Calumpit, which
was the strongest position that they
had yet held.
Madrid, April 29.-Senora Reyes, The
Manila correspondent of a newspaper
