BUFFETED BY HEAVY SEAS.
TempcstuOus Voyage of the Trans
port Ingalls, From San Juan
to New York.

New York, Jan. THE United
States transport Ingalls,, from San
Juan, Porto Rico, December 81, and
Havana, January 1, reached this port
after very tempestuous voyage. For
40 hours the vessel was buffeted by
enormous seas, stirred by high winds
first from the north and later from
the northeast and east. Doors and
port lights were smashed, ladders
were broken, and the bridge was dam
aged. The hand steering gear was
carried away and the saloon and din
ing saloon were flooded, the furni-
ture being broken or ruined. The spe-
cial apartment on the upper deck aft
was also wrecked.
Many times during the storm it
seemed as though the ingalls, must be
lost. The pumps got cat of order
and refused to work in the after hold.
A bucket brigade was organized and
worked steadily bailing out the water.
Some oil barrels in the hold broke
away from their fastenings and stove,
spilling their contents and choked the
bilge hole so that the pumps could
not work. The Ingalls, was formerly
known as the Clearwater. She was
built to carry fruit from Honduras
to New Orleans and is very fast
boat.

4 Novel Experience.
The Filipinos in Manila have been
enjoying, recently, a novel expert
ence, in the holding of free, open po-
litical meetings. Most of the adj
dresses at these meetings were made
by former officers of the insurgents,
all of whom asserted that the best
way of securing personal liberty is to
accept the liberties guaranteed by the
constitution and government of the
United States, which is what Ameri-
can sovereignty stands for. The au-
diences were greatly interested and
many of those attending the meetings
signed the federal party declaration.
The construction of a rebel prison
at Olongapo, in addition to those at
Manila, will be begun shortly.

Association of Nashville called on Gov.
McMillin last week and urged him to
recommend in his message to the legis-
lature an appropriation Of $4,000 for

ton, and he said as he intended recon-
mending the most rigid economy to the
legislature, he could not say what he
would do in this matter.

Pulaski is reveling in a sensation
caused by the arrest of Prof. j. B. VIII
kerson, a well-known school teacher,
on charge of stealing clothing from
King & McGrew and from Baugh &
Lane of that city. For six months or
more these firms have been steadily
losing goods, and the most persistent
efforts to detect the thief have proven
futile. 1t is supposed he got away with
fully $1,000 worth of goods, which he
sold in Nashville. Last week Wilker-
son was detected in the act of walking
out of the store with a pair of trousers
under his overcoat, and he was arrested.

IMMIGRATION TO ARIZONA
Agents Looking Over the Field for a
 Boer Colony.

The much mooted plan of colonizing certain portions of Arizona with ex- patriated and dissatisfied members of the Boer and Free State republics, is given color by the recent visit of Fred erick Beebe and Herman Fruend, who claim they have labored for two years in the United States for the Boer cause and are now seeking a location for a colony. Rumors of proposed colonizlng schemes of the kind hitherto have been based almost entirely upon the feasibility of the project.
 Beebe and Fruend say they are plan ming to establish settlement of Transvaalers and Free Staters which shal be the neucleus of large colony of families from South Africa
 For some time friends of the Boers in this country have been discussing plans for the colonizing of many who desire to leave south Africa, and It is believed the two agents now in Arizona, are acting with authority vested by members of the Afrikander Bund. who first suggested that tract of land in Arizona be secured and allotted equal ly among the Boer immigrants.
 Beebe and Fruend have been investi- ,gating various s1ations tpf Arizona and northern Mexico. In this section they examined carefully government land, the quality of the soil and its adaptability to irrigation. In the Gila valley, adjoining the Pima Indian reservation they believe there is a large tract which will suit them. In

ARGUMENT FOR FEDERAL AID
The Different Conditions of Home
 steaders.

Io the Editor of The Republican,:
 Sir;-There is strong argument in favor of national aid for water storage and the building or digging of canals, laterals and sublaterals, that has been overlooked, or at least it has not been brought to my notice. You see in the states and territories where it rains abundantly, if a man homesteads, he has to live on his homestead for five years and cultivate it or improve 1t for five years, At the end of that tima he has 10 prove up on it-that is, to bring responsible witnesses that he actually lived on the land and made the neces- sary Improvements.
 But for moisture he trusted to rain Now,if l understand it right, that same homestead law is in force here in the arid west. You see that moisture in states dcesnt cost the homesteader one cent, consequently he can make the necessary improvements without federal or other aid. But not so in arid coun- tries. where we have to irrigata. Now, can the federal government consistent ly ask the same Improvements iIl ghe ara countries as 1t does in countries where it rains before 1t grants the

southern Arizona they found much range country which could be made available for stockraising, provided water could be developed.
 In northern Mexico they found large tracts of land which are ideally To- cated for agricultural purposes. and their visit to the Mexican capital will be made for the purpose of discussing with government officials, the obtain ing of concessions to lands. Both representatives are in favor of locating a colony in Mexico, provided the United States government cannot be persuaded to allot them lands and water in Arizona. The Mexican gov ernnsent is making strenous efforts to settle it's enormous area of waste land in the northern part of the republic and doubtless will make liberal concessions to secure such class of industrious citizens as the Boer farmers will make. Nearly all the land there Is very fer tile and productive under irrigation. After the visit to the Mexican capital Beebe and Fruend intend to ga to Washington and discuss their plans with the officials of the department of the interior.

GETTING THERE.

Only about six months ago the firr, of Ross & Mcguire was formed for the purpose of doing a general tail bring business. There was nothing startling about that, but a little later this firm sprang into notoriety by pllr- chasing bankrupt tailor's stock at 25c on the dollar. despite a vigorous competition. Having made such an advantageous purchase the firm de- cided to give their patrons the benefit of it. They accordingly began to ad- vertise what they had to offer :he public. Since then their success has been marvellous. Now Ross & Meg quire are firm believers in the use uf prlnters' ink and have arranged to usa more of il from now on. They carry an excellent stock and are making fine suits at regular eastern prices They are bound to succeed.

A WORD TO WHEELMEN.-A the request of the drivers of the fire de- partment apparatus mention Is again made of the carelessness of the general public, md wheelmen in particular, when an alarm of fire Is turned in. IL is the custom as soon as an alarm is; turned in for every man who has a bicycle, and who is not otherwise en- gagged, to mount his wheel and pull for the fire. That is all right enough if the wheelmen will be discreet and keep to the side of the road or any where else out of the way of the ap- paratus. But thoughtlessly most of them seek the center of the street and when the apparatus comes charging along, perhaps at the turning of a corner 1t is nearly always necessary to slacken speed or run over some one. The drivers of course do not want to hurt anybody, but they are in duty bound to take some chances in the interest of speed and some day if the curious are not more careful a few mangled corpses will be picked up in the wake of the hose wagon. chemical and engine. This Is not threat, but simply a prediction. It should be re- membered that when an alarm of ire is turned in the firemen have the right of way and all Good citizens should see that they go 1t. The engine driver cannot see sSs, Ind a corner and peo- pie are not in vehicles should hug the walks till they know the apparatus has passed. And it would be well for those who are in vehicles to move eau tlously.

ABOUT CHA MONSTERS
Museum Agent Returns With Rep

That there are thousands of people in the east who have never heard of the Gila monster and that there are thou sands more who have read stories of the strange reptile but believe its ex- istence to be as chimerical as that of the traditional sea serpent. may sound strange to a citizen of the southwest. For just that reason A. J. Chaney, or the Zoo garden, Cincinnati, came to Arizona recently to secure specimens for that museum that the people may see. marvel and study for themselves, Chaney left on his return to Gin cinnati last night after securing in Sonora, Mex. and in this valley a number of Cha monsters.

licans when the treaty of Paris was rat
flied. 1t might have added that after the
Bryan party had made the question Of
the retention OF the islands a leading is
sue in $780, 1t was beaten more decisively
earlier. The issue which the Chronicle
would have fits party make is that the
islands shall be governed as a part Of the
United States and not after the British
colonial policy. That is, instead of carry
ing. out the present policy Of governing
the islands by commission which shall
make the necessary laws subject to the
approval Of the United States, and enforce
them until the natives are in some sense
fitted for self-government, the Chronicle
would set them TO governing themselves
as territories and extend TO the people Of
the islands all the laws Of the United
States which are applicable to territories
in that hemisphere. Many Will fail TO
grasp the point which the Chronicle is
making We have had Alaska thirty years
and have ruled it rather as colony than
as a territory. It's people have no voice
in their own government. They do not
hold elections, and except that there are
no special provisions relating to tariffs
such as is proposed in reference to the
Philippines, 1t has been ruled very much
as if 1t were q colony.
