The Nicaragua Canal bill has
been given another chance for
life at this session by reducing
the appropriation and putting it

it gets the votes and money.

PRINCESS kSIULANI

W OrO5 form leeDle IntuIuD ~
express the depth of heartfelt
sorrow which the death Of the
Princess Keiulani brings 10 the
people of Hawaii. Struck down
at almost the threshold of life,
when her keen intellect, tactful
power and ideal womsnhood was
doing end bid fair to still further
a complish such marked benefit
for her own people aud for future
generations of Hawaii, the sad
ness of the hour could hardly be
more real, more poignant, had the
grim reaper entered every house
hold of the territory.
Now that the life of the Princess
has become part Of history the
first undying feature of that his
torical detail will be that she re-
presented the highest type of
womanhood. Hardly beyond
girlhood in years, she had during
her short life displayed that
strength of character, calm tenn
permanent and thoughtful, logical
mind which made her
worthy in every respect
of the high place which she
held in the hearts of people. BY
her true heartedness, her honesty
Of purpose, her constant interest
in the welfare of her people, che
held position in the community
which no political changes could
belittle, from which no declaration
by any power on earth could dis
place her.
Named as successor to the Ha-
waiian throne, the past few years
have been trying ones to the Priu.
cess. Through all the period of
political evolution, the utter
thoughtlessness for self and the
constant thoughtfulness for her
people have been the guiding
lights of Princess Kaiulani's
career. Nomipally she retired 10
private life but in fact she was still
leader of her people and her dip
lomacy, and common sense reason
ing won her honors as marked as
could have been paid formally
enthrone queen.
What Hawaii's losss is also sad
blow to the people Of the United
States who share the blessings
and the misfortunes OF this insu
lar possession. From the day
Hawaii came under the admins
tration of the United States the
Princess has been steadfast in her
cordiality to American officials in
the army and navy aud her per
sonal interest in the men who
went to the front to uphold the
honor of the nation. In her ac-
ceptance of the political situation
and the marked courtesies to the
official representatives of the Am.
erican nation she has set an exam
pie for her people and given evi
dence of a broader, more liberal
spirit than many of the ofiici ais
who sought American control in
Hawaii.

NO BOND ISSUE INTENDED.
Present Condition OF the Treasury De
ciared 10 he Sntisfa Glory.

Washington, February a.
Secretary Gage said today that
there was no truth whatever in
the published statement that an
other bond issue was in contem-
plation. He pointed out that
there is now an available cash
balance in the Treasury of over
100000, and although the
expenditures are now and for
some time are expected to be in
excess of the receipts, the Treas
ury situation is not such as to
warrant any apprehension for
the near future.

The Aeuilar Episode.

The supreme court at Santa Fe the
other day dismissed the case of Scipio
Aguilar, appealed from the lower court,
by reason of the non.appearance of
counsel for the murderer, the latter
having escaped from the county
jail a few months ago and is
still at large, and from all the
interest that the officers appear to be
taking in his capture. is likely to roam
around the country free man for some
time to come unless he repents of hav-
ing escaped and returns to the jail,
Then, too, tbe last grand jury, for
reasons best known to itself, failed to
find an indictment against the sheriff or
his deputy, fixing the responsibility for
allowing Aguilar to escape. The sheriff
of the county is responsible for the safe
custody of murderers and it was mo-
thing but criminal carelessness on the
part of the sheriffs underlings that
made 1t possible for Aguilar to escape.
He did not saw his way through the
steel door of his cell or dig through the
solid rock. lie was simply assigned to
the position of cook for the Jail and not
withstanding that his was most dia-
bolical crime, for which he was SEN
fenced to hang. he was allowed the
privileges of that functionary and per
mitted to sleep outside cell and near
the door, which he impudently walked
out of enc day.
The jailer, Zacarias Valdez, blamed
the sheriff at the time and the sheriff
blamed the jailer and actually fred
him.
1t will be remembered that Judge
Smith, four years ago, sentenced Serafin
Baca, the jailer who allowed Dave Nor
man to escape, to year in the peniten-
tiary, Baca having been indicted by the
grand jury. and Norman had been SEN
fenced to only three years. In Agui-

for his great services to the Republican
party by being appointed bailitf to the
grand jury.
The law abiding people of the COM
munity, no doubt, would like to see
Governor Otero give little attention
TO why practically no effort hes been
made to apprehend the criminal and
also to take steps to fix the responsible
lty on the party who permitted Aguilar
to escape.

Experience of Cowmen.

PoTAM, Mex, September LA party
of vaqueros left Potam for the Pitaya
mountains to bring in some cattle that
were in danger of falling into the hands
of the Yaquis. They we're warned by
General Lorenzo Torres of danger but
were determined to make an effort to
secure their property. They have
reached Guamuchil on their return
thoroughly exhausted, with one of their
number mis- ing. Joaquin Pena, a
champion va uero of Sonora, has been
killed. While the party was driving
the stock to the valley Indians took
possession of the herd and pursued the
cowboys to within few miles of the
settlement. The fact has been well es-
tablished that quite number of Mayo
Indians are fighting against the gov
ernment with the Yaquis.

Railroad Inspiration.

To the Editor of The OPTIC,
The breaking of ground for the Las
Vegas, Mora and Taos railroad has
provoked SO many inquiries and so
much talk l am disposed to add word
through THE OPTIC, with your per-
mission.
Is it a fake, will the road really be
built, what do you think of it, with
many like queries are on every tongue.
Towns and cities, as rule. are where
the inhabitants thereof build them. Las
Vegas years ago entered the race for
suprema acy in the southwest. Steadily
without noise or boasting, she has en-
ergetically pushed toward the front.
She has the enterprise and push out Of
which cities grow. 1t Is of the utmost
importance to her that this railroad be
built. To the north 1t will come within
reach of a rich mineral belt, extensive
coal fields, and large bodies of fine tim
ber and as rich agricultural land as the
sun ever shone upon, furnishing from
the very beginning alarger freight traf-
lic than any of US really comprehend.
1t will open up beautiful mountain val
leys. very near our doors, adjacent to
which summer homes will spring up
and increase hundred fold our facil-
tiles for making Las Vegas the great
est resort for health and pleasure south
of the Ration mountains. If this line
be built, soon connecting link with
the White Oaks, Fort Stanton and Ros-
well country will be filled in, and the
wealthy people of Texas who now sum-
mer in Colorado, will find along the
line of this road. with Las Vegas as a
center, beautiful, cool and delightful
resorts and the country will fill up rap
idly. Later in the natural order of
events, the line will extend from Taos,
across to the valleys of the San Inon
and the Animas and ON to Salt Lake
and the Pacific. This railroad is of
more Importance to the city than might
at first glance appear 1t is great OPP
portunity that should not be lost. 1t lie
no visionary scheme, but the solid ba-
sis for railroad building and extension
of the utmost value to Las Vegas,
Look at the commercial advantage OF
such close connection by rail with all
this northwestern region. Wake up,
Las Vegas, and give strong and help
ing hand to the promoters of this pro-
jectl Colonel Alberger, Mr.. Ross and
Mr. Manzanares have been long strug-
Cling almost unaided to ensure this
line. They ought to have the whole
city enthusiastically and persistently
behind them. What can Las Vegas dc
to manifest its interest in this new
work and to aid and encourage its pro-
motors? Mr.. Editor. blaze out the way
and arouse public attention to this new
line of development for the Greater Las
Vegas. OCCASIONAL.

General Frederick Funston and Mrs.
Funston are with the generals regiment.
Funston has undergone an operation
necessitated by an injury resulting from
fall from horse while serving in the
Cuban army with General Gomez. In
an interview Funston said:
the only solution of the problem
will be to give thorough whipping to
the insurgents. l do not think they
will surrender. Wien we begin active
operations against them on a larger
scale IN autumn, we will scatter them
into small bodies and | think when the
soldiers composing these bands see that
they are persistently pursued they will
throw away or hide their arms and re-
turn to their pursuits of peace

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-Archbishop
Chappelle of New Orleans, apostolic

In answer to General Funston's
statement made in an address to the
students Df Stanford university that If
congress would drive out the friars and
oonhscate every inch of church proper
Nv, the bottom would drop out of the
iusurrection within one week. for the
inhabitants of Luzon are completely

proper TO make the following state
merte:
knowing what l do for the most
reliable authority of General Funston's
observation-disclosures and sense of fairness,
/ l do not believe he has been quoted
correctly. He may have stated that the
insurgents demand this as condition
OF peace. but that he gave them as his
own sentiments, 1 cannot believe All
l can say is that II General Fusntor
made this statement. he manifested 8
dense ignorance as saying; The in
habitants Of Luzon are completely un-
der the church Now would ask how
can this be possible, when every priest
with the exception of a few in the
island Of Luzon, outside of the walled
city of Manila, is a prisoner in the hand
of the insurgents. For the past Il
months this state of affairs has exist
