According to Sir Clements Markham, president of the Royal Geographical society, Americans are responsible for forming such a successful corner in polar dogs that the pending British and other arctic expeditions are confronted with a difficulty nearly as great as the ice fields. It appears that E. B. Bald win. the American explorer, has bought up such large supply of dogs that their price has risen from SIS to $50 and they are hard to secure even at that Drice,

Following is the ode adopted by th' legislature as the Territorial Anthem as written by Mrs. Frank Cox: HAIL TO ARIZONA. THE SUE-KISSEI
 LANDl o. Arizona, n-lxissed land, Thy day of birth Is near at hand; Upon thy mountains rugged crest, Thy native sons still call thee blest; Within thy valleys broad domain. In love thy foster children reign; Fair land of gold and sunny peace. Of flower and vine and rich increase, Of cloud-Sissed hills and wooded wold. Of countless mines and wealth untold.
 CHORUS.
 Hail! all hail to Arizonal E Sound her praise from sea to sea,

The thread of the cocoon of the SIX worm is not wound around and around, as might be supposed, but irregularly here and there, as the worm moves his head to and fro within his self-made house. Many yards of thread may some times be unwound from the cocoon without turning it over at all.

On the 17th instant George H. Wall lace, secretary of New Mexico, died at his home in Santa Fe from an attack of pneumonia, from which he had been suffering several days. MT.

For years he has been interested in the wool business, and was authority on wool, recognized all over the country. In speaking of his death the New Mex ican says: "Mr. Wallace came to San ta Fe in the fall of 1896 and in 1897 was appointed secretary of the terri tory which position be filled until his death.

Irrigation by Water Wheels.


 "In the development of the arid West" says F. H. Newell, Hydrogra- pher of the Geological Survey, in u contribution to National Irrigation, ''every possible device is being used by which water may be brought to the surface. Some of these methods are crude, but effective and interesting, as affording an indication of the ingenuity of the people. Wind power is largely used, and where practicable water power is employed, one of the most in- teresting devices being that by which under-sho water wheels are placed in swiftly flowing streams. Sometimes these water wheels operate pumps, but more usually they carry upon their rims small buckets in which water is raised from the surface of the stream and dropped into the fumes through which it flows by gravity to tine fields.
 "Water-wheels of this kind are as old as civilization, and were employed long before the dawn of history in Egypt and in the far East. They have been reinvented in almost every part of the arid region. Almost number. less persons have attempted to obtain patents upon these, believing in each case that they had brought to light a new device. The disgust of these in. dividuals may well be imagined when they are informed that their invention, instead of being new, dates back into the traditional past"

REPUBLICAN HARMoNYPR PROMISED
The Allegheny Mans Statement That
There Is No Longer an Organization
Fighting the Stalwarts Occasions
Much Comment,

Philadelphia, June 1l.-Nothing that
has occurred for some time has attract.
ed more attention among those inter.
ested in Pennsylvania politics than the
public statement made by Senator
Finn, of Allegheny, that there no Ion.
ger exists an insurgent Republican or.
ganization in this state.
Coming from the recognized leader
Of the faction which has for some years
been endeavoring to harass, II not to
destroy, the controlling element in the
Republican party in this common
wealth, this announcement is full Of
significance, and must have far reach
ing effect toward furthering the move
ment for absolute harmony among the
Republicans Of the state.
A survey of the situation shows that
what Finn says cannot be successful
ly refuted. The ostensible object of
the organization of the insurgents was
the defeat Of Col. Quay for reelection
to the United States senate. With the
return of the Beaver stateman to the
senate the insurgents are left without
an issue. The hopes of several ambi-
tious millionaires who kept the in
surgent movement alive with liberal
contributions to the campaign fund
were likewise shattered. Each one of
them wanted to be a United States SEN
ator.
FLINN HAS HAD ENOUGH.
Finn is a practical business man as
well as a practical politician. 1t is
believed that his main purpose in join
ing the insurgent movement was to
bring about the election OF his friend,
the late Christopher l.. Magee. as Uni
ted States senator. Following the cleo
tion Of Senator Quay and the death of
Magee came the ripper legislation,
which has deprived Finn Of the con-
troll Of the local Offices formerly under
his friend, ex-Mayor Diehl, of Pitts
burg. The party organization in that
city has gradually been slipping from
Films grasp. and an aggressive and
intelligent element headed by reputa-
Bile business men is coming to the front
in the Republican organization of Allie
gheny county.
Finn knows when he has had enough,
and some time ago he concluded that
il was about time to get in out of the
wet. He now says he is going along
with the regular Republican organiza-
tion in the state, and his course at
Harrisburg within the last few weeks
Indicates thai he means what he SAYS.

CONDITIONS HAVE CHANGED.

A significant case in point was that
Of newly appointed Judge Walters, of
Northumberland county. Judge Wal
ters, who was named by Governor
Stone for a recently created court, is
a stalwart of stalwart Republicans.
He was delegate 10 the Republican
state convention in the interest c
Senator Quay in the famous light of
1895, and he was nominated for as
semblyman in Northumberland coun-
ty by the Republicans, and was voted
for at last November's election.
Walters was bitterly opposed for
election by the insurgent organization.
with Finn directing the fight and ar
ranging combinations with the DEM
ocrats for a fusion ticket for the leg
islature When the returns came in
it was found that Walters had been de-
feated by just IA votes. Then the new
court was created, and the stalwart
Republicans of the county urged Gov
ernor Stone to appoint Walters, who

ty. and the governor complied with
their request.
Senator Focht went to Finn and
asked him to vote for Walters confirm
alton in the senate.
81 shall be pleased to do So" was
Films reply, and that very night he
cast a vote for the man whom he had
defeated at the polls last fall Senator
Focht, who made the request, had his
own costly experience with the Finn
insurgent organization. Finn and
Wanamaker defeated Focht when he
ran for the assembly two years ago,
after he had been nominated by the
Republican convention. Last fall Finn
and Wanamaker went at him again
when he was running for the state SEN
ate, but they failed to win away from
him enough Republicans to defeat
Focht this time.
Focht and Finn are now working
together in the senate on many mat
ters; that is, Finn is working with
Focht in support of measures which
are advocated by the stalwart Republic
can leaders.

A noteworthy incident of the last
week was the action of the Republican
convention Of Washington county. This
county has been controlled politically
by Congressman Acheson for many
years. Recently he has been acting
with the insurgents. For some time
prior to that he would make his nom
