| Spanish extraction their sentiments i tended slightly in favor of Spain, bit
 they could not easily forget their
 grievances they held against their
 nothsr country and consequently
 were not solfc!tous for it's welfare.
 But the actions of the Germans there were noticeable" said Colonel Hatch. ''They were strongly in sym pathy with Spain, and although there
 were TO demonstrations of any kind no one was deceived as to their att titude.
 Tn regard to that war he con- tinued, ''I suppose ther6 was more ln- terest taken ill Phoenix than in New
 York. When Captain Coghlal made
 his speech in New York there was a
 title excitement and the papers tried
 to keep it up, but the people soon lost
 sight of tt in the general business
 stir. I'll tell you we don't have time
 in New York to think of anything much but business. Everyone is busy and happy. Money is easy ard there never has been such prosperity in the east as now.
 ''I don't know what effect the eTi- balned beef investigation board wtII have on the next presidential e.e3- tion,' he continued. but I do think this: Every republican should stand. up for the administration. The WiI was conducted in the most expedi- tOus manner possible, and President Mckinley is largely responsible for the present thrifty condition of fhe country. Bryan came there witlI his dollar dinner and tIied to arouse en- thusiasm, but to no avail. The silver question is a relic, and I can't see what the democrats will have tor their next hobby Truts will not con stitute an issue for democrats IS well as republicans are interested Iii thsn, and anti-imperialism is entirely out of the question. It would be .mpoiitic for Bryan to stand oR anything but silver platform, and on that platform the party may rest assured of h g overwhelming defeat'
 Mir Hatch is now the proprietor of the Hotel RoyaltOn at New York It is sky-scraper of thirteenstOries, and is one of the largest hotels of the city It is located near the Winsdor hotel, which burned down recently. Mir Hatch said he witnessed that fire and he never wants to see another like if. He saw numbers of women leap from the windows and witnessed heroic acts of fremen. Altogether the sight was awful. The Winsdor was not a fire proof structure. He says that now the hotel business like every other business is prosperous. The leading hotels are crowded espa3laiIy those with fire escapes. The Wrnd- sor has made an impression on the travelling public.
 MT Hatch was in this valley before there was an Arizona canal and when the canal was established he became a director in the cOmDaQV.
 ''Your water question IS receiving a | great deal of attention in New York" he said. There is plenty of money i seeking investment at low late Of | interest, and the chances are favor 1 able that portion of it will be em- | ployed soon in the construction Of a | reservoir for this valley. I said seven teen years ago that the reservoir was bound to come, and my belief has i been strengthened. When that is ac- ccmplished everybody knows the path ! to prosperity is well greased. Every thing is looking well iii the valley at | present, and if the people will be pa- | tient for short time I think they will | realize their wishes in the water l nr0bIPm l"
