THE VOLUNTEERS TO
 RECEIVE EXTRA PAY
Many Members of the Two Alabama Reg ments Arc Entitled to One Months
 Extra Pay

Many of the boys who served in the Ala bama regiments during the late war with Spain will receive the extra months pay about which there has been much talk since the regiments were mustered out Extra pay for officers and volunteers of the Spanish-Amercan war is provided for in the army appropriation act of May 26 1900, follows:
 Volunteer officers of the general staff who did not receive waiting orders pay before muster out.
 officers of volunteer organizations dis charged account of disability, or who without leave of absence or waiting ord ers,' or extra pay under the act of Janu- ary F, 1899, were discharged because their services were no longer required. This will include officers who were on duty through the furlough period of their commands. officers and enlisted men of volunteer organizations who resigned or were dis charged upon their own application before the muster out of their organization, but after the issuance of orders for its muster out.
 1.-Two months extra pay is allowed if ser vice was rendered abroad one months if only within the United States.'
 By this act many of the members of the First and Second Alabama Regiments will receive pay for one extra month. Those entitled to the amount should apply to the Auditor of the War Department. Colonel Higdon, of the First Alabama Regiment, which served during the late war, says that there are large number of men entitled to this pay, and a large sum of money will come into the State in this way. Most of the officers of the two regiments will receive the extra pay, and those enlisted men who stayed in camp during the furlough will get their share. The small number of enlisted men who did not stay in camp during the furlough are not entitled to any extra pay.
 The aid of an attorney is not necessary in collecting the pay The Auditor of the War Department will reply to every com munication on the subject
 Many circulars sent out by special agents and pension agents iH Washington and other places have been coming into this State lately.

FREE GOLD FOUND.

Jerome (A. T. April 2.-Today the ciyy is almost depopulated of it's male inhabitants. Every livery rig in the city and special passenger trains have been carving the peo-. pie to point eight miles north of Jerome, on the United Verde and Pacific railroad. where an enorm- eusly rich vein of free gold was discovered by section hands on this railroad.
 The ground where the gold bear ing quartz is found has been prog peeted for many years and hoaEy cuts made through it by the United Verde and Pacific railroad. .
 No one suspected the presence of the precious metal. At this hour, very little work has been done on the discovery claim, hole four feet deep has been made and a sample assay which shows the startling result of $25.OOO a ton. The quartz IS white.

The striking and important events of the last year have established the overw helming value of the THRICE-A- WEEK WORLD to every reader. For an almost nominal sum it has kept it's subscribers informed of the pro gress of all our wars and, moreover, has reported them as promptly and fully as if it were a daily. With onr interests still extending throughout the world, with our troops operating in the Philippines, and the great pres idential campaign, too, at hand, it's value IS further increased.
 The motto of the THRICE-A-WEEK WORLD is improvement. It strives each year to be better than it was the year before, and public confidence in it is shown by the fact that it now circulates more than twice as many papers every week as any other news paper, not daily, published in America.

Whc will sing her little songs: Who will kiss away her pOuting As she folds her in her arms. Her litno heart is bosting wildly, Burdened not with childish care; But with grief which has 10 endiag Cert in heayen-only there! Notherless child! God help her!

THE REAL PUERTO RICAN ISSUE.

twenty years.-L. A. Times. .-gz---------------.----
 THE REAL PUERTO RiCAN ISSUE.
 "Keep the real issue in eight, and let the President and the party be Judged by that" is the wise con- clusion of g very able article m the
 Seattle Post fntelligencer" on the
 Puerto Rican question. Obviously
 this excellent editorial treatment of a much-discussed subject IS the product of some knowledge and s1me thinking. Unfortunately the same cannot be said of 8 vast vol- ume Of matter that has found It's way into print relative to the Puerto Rican topic. No writer has stated the issue more clearly or more in telIigently than it is stated by the "Post-Inteiligencer," thus.
 1t is not question whether we ought to impose duty of 25 per cent. or one of 15 per cent or none at al! upon commerce between that island and the United States. It is whether this Government has con- stitutionai power to levy such tax under any circumstances; whether Puerto Rico is territory to be gov- erned as all other territory added has been, by the disposition of Con- gress, or whether it's people ac- quired, by the treaty of Paris, con- stitutionaI rights within the United States that compel recognition by us and leave us no choice but to acknowledge the new possessions as an integral part of the nation under the Constitution, and finally to admit them as States"
 Rightly the 'Post IntelIigeacer" insists that the contest is not waged on the question whether Puerto Rican trade should be free or un- taxed. The opposition to the pend ing bill is based upon no such con sideration. It cares nothing about the question either of Tariff or of revenue. Engineered by clever Free Trade and anti-imperialist strategists, the movement, intended solely to "put the administration in a hole" has secured the adhesion ofa considerable number of Repub llcans who seem to be unable to discover the use that is being made of them. They are apparently blind to the fact, so clearly pointed out by the "Post-Intelligencer," that:
 ''The constitutional question is the real bone of contention. The Republicanparty cannot abandonits position upon that without revers- ing all our precedents and destroy ing the practical possibility ot building up mighty commerce in the Far East by exchanging for tEe open door in the Philippines the open door in the vast portion of Asia under European control.
 "We believe that those who have differed honestly from the par'y's policy Tn this particular will agree with it when they come to see what is involved; and how cunningly the advocates of retirement from the Philippines have sought to make that necessary by pretended fight over the Puerto Rican Tariff"
 If only the army of dissenters from the policy of the Republican party could once grasp the idea that a much bigger and more DOT
 tentous question than that of 9 per cent. 15 per cent, or no Tariff at all is involved in the Puerto
 Rican proposition. it would might
 ilv help to clear up the situation.
