WHERE LIFE ls WORTH LIVING.

We do not seem to grasp the oppor-
tunities near at hand, but are always
looking toward some far of country for
the Eldorado, which forsooth may lie
Immediately around US, but which has
escaped our notice on account OF our
eyes being strained from the continual
long range OF vision, 30 that even great
objects near at hand appear to US to be
unreal and imaginary.
"The world moves the same as it did
in the time Of Gallaleo, and its people
move a great deal more, until it has be-
come the general belief that it is impos-
sible. or at least highly Improbable, that
there is anything Of value near at hand.
The old question is still on the human
lips, Can any good come out out OF
NazarethY People are still straining
their eyes in all directions scanning the
horizon for some new excitement, still
craning their necks that they may hear
fabulous stories Of other climes. whom
it may be, is most probable, and indeed
is, in this case, fact that few other
countries under the sun are blessed
with nearly the advantages which may
be enjoyed right here in the mild and
balmy climate of the valley Of the
Grand.
II we would only put forth one half of
the energy in developing our own re-
sources, which have been exhausted in
Alaska, the result would astonish and
confound the most incredulous. Let us
fully realize our opportunities and we
will prove by results, all Of the asser-
tions which have ever made of this
valley-and 4 good deal more.
Nature has been lavish in her gifts to
Grand Valley. Let US appreciate the
facts, for such they are, and accept
them with an energy that shall leave no
question as to our recognition OF her
beneficince Let us put forth an energy
worthy of our ability, and our children
shall rise up to call US blessed.
In the midst OF q land literally flow
ing with milk and honey, whose cottages
shall be shaded by their own vines and
fig trees and where the peach shall bios
som, blush and ripen. to be tenderly
buried beneath pearly drifts Of crystal
sugar, bolus ft for the gods, to tickle
the palate Of him who fully appreciates
the pleasure of living.

NICARAGUA CANAL
 SA
 <S@et
 &c> Entire Session of the Senate Taken Up by This Measure.
 AN IMPORTANT PROVISION MADE
The House Resumed the Consideration of the Naval Personnel Bill and it Passed the House Yesterday
 Afternoon.

Washington, Jan. 17.-Almost the entire session of che senate today was devoted to :he consideration of the pending Nicaragua canal bill. At 3 o'clock the consideration Of the bill under the fifteen minute rule was be- gun apd was continued to the close of the session The first vote reached was on an amendment ofS'ed by Mr. Rawlins of Utah, which in brief pro- Vides that the United States should have absolute control of the canal for military or naval purposes, with the power to dictate the use of the water way during the existe nee of war. The friends of the pending bill rallied against the amendm ent and it was de- feated by the decisive vote of 3S to g. A provision vas inserted in the bill providing that no more than $5,000,000 should be raid the Maritime Canal company for it's concession and the work already done on the canal
 NAVAL BILL PASSED.
 Washington. Jan. 1.-The house to- day passed the naval personnel bill without division of the final passage, thus accomplishing what the officers of the navy have striven for during more than a decade. By it's provisions the line and engineer corps are welded into an amalgamated line, staff officers are given positive rank and their com mand is limited to their own corps and the system of the voluntary agreed compulsory retirement on three-quar- ters pay, as of the next higher rank, of forty officers a year, is established, which is designed to remove the con- gestion in the lower rank at fOrty-five. The bill also practically equalizes their pay with that of the army officers. But the most important change in the bill as reported was the adoption of a substitute for the organization of the marine corps. by which the corps is to consist of 6,O00 enlisted men and petty officers, with general officers and staff. This will increase the marine corps by 1900 men and the increased cost of its maintenance will be $1,500,- coo.

LISTEN TO BRYAN.
Great Crowds Throng the Legislative
 Halls.

Denver, Colo, Jan. 17.-William J. Bryan made two public speeches in Denver today which were listened to by audiences limited only by the ca pacity of the auditorium. The first was at o'clock in the hall of the house of representatives, to which only the fortunate ones who held tickets were admitted. The other was at 8 o'clock at the Coliseum hall, the larg- est room in the city, where thousands struggled for standing room, while other thousands turned away disap- pointed, not even getting a glimpse of the great silver champion. In his ad- dress before the legislature, MT. Bryan devoted most of his time to discus sion of the duties of legislators and other public officers, whom he desig- mated servants, not masters of the peo- pie. In his address at the Coliseum MT. Bryan took for his subject the Philippine question, and in conclusion said: Imperialism might eX )and the Ia, ions territory, but it would con- trac,. the nations purpose. It is not a step toward a broader destiny; it is step backward toward the narrow views of kings and emporors.''

THE INCIDENT IS CLOSED.
General Eagan's Report Accepted as
 Evidence.

Washington, Jan. 17.-The war in vestigating commission today decided to make a public amended statement filed by CCmmissary General Eagan yesterday. The commission permitted representatives of the press to read the statement and it was formally an nounced to the newspaper men that General Eagan has eliminated all ob- jectionaLIe statements aud therefore the document would be accepted off cially by the commission as evidence. As already stated, the charges made by General Eagan in the document are mainly in the line of excision, yet the phraseology has also been altered ire quently. He refers to General Miles as Senior General Nelson Miles, and while keeping strictly within the limit of propriety in the judgment of the committee in a negative manner, at least he resents any assumption of General Miles superiority and asserts that he is as good, as old and as ex- perienced a soldier as General Miles. He also cTfticizes the latter's attack on the beef industry as infamous It is believed that so far as the commis- sion is concerned 1he incident is now closed.

Hanna dur ing the absence of the husband, and opened fire on Mrs. Hanna with a re volver. Four shots were fired in rapid only one of which took ef~ feet.

 send for persons and papers. The pa
 perS already filed in the case were de-
 liVered to Chairman Gray, and the
 committee held a brief meeting after

 Speaker Ashurst evidently does not
 expect the republicans to be unseated, as he yesterday made Benham chair
 man of the live stock committee. The
 other members of the committee are
 Donau, republican; Pusch, republican, and Etz and Peterson, democrats. The
 republicans gre thus assured of the

 The speaker also appointed a com mfttee on mileage, on motion of MT. Adams who was made chairman of the committee, associated with Mr Ben ham and MT. Williams. This committee will aid the auditor in determining the amount of mileage due each member.

 The legislature is practically ready 10 begin law making in earnest, and the introduction of bills will soon begin. Councilman Hunt has Q bill for compulsory education law ready to launch. It is the same mea asu& passed two years ago, which Governor Franklin refused to sign. MT Hunt says the white children go to school in his county, Eut the Mexicans will not, and he thinks they should. MT Hunt also has a revenue 'Sill ready to fire off. It provides that officers in charge of territorial institutions shall annually submit to the board of equalization of taxes an estimate of the Sln neceS- sary for maintenance during tine en- suing year, and that the auditor shall not issue warrants in excess of this 'es- n innate. Punishment by fine and imx is provided for neglect to carry odt the provisions of the law Just how such law would operate. if the legislature appropriated for an in stitution more money than was esti- mated to maintain it does not appear 1n the face of the bl-l as it now stands.

To the Gentlemen of the Council and House of Representatives of the Twentieth Legislative Assembly of Arizona:
 In accordance with law, I have the honor to communicate to you such in- formation relating to the different de- partments of the territorial govern ment as has been officially reported to me, and to submit for your considera- tion and action such subjects as in my judgment require your attention.
 Arizona is to be congratulated upon the marked prosperity which prevails throughout the territory; the produc- tion and wealth of the mines; the suc- cess of grazing and agricultural inter estS, and the evidences of thrift and comfort to be found everywhere among the people.
 In the war with Spain Arizona very promptly rendered to the government volunteers that, compared with our population, in numbers greatly exceed ed the tenders made by any other state or territory; and on Cuban soil, by their bravery and heroic conduct. they won the admiration of the civilized world. Their names and deeds will in yoke love and respect as long as the nations history lives.
 By their patriotism and valor; by their thrift and ability; by their loy- atty to the republic, fealty to national principles, and every consideration of true Americanism, the ciLizens of Ari- zona have earned and are entitled to statehood and the inestimable privi- lege Of self-government.
