In estimating the national debt OF
the United States consideration is
never given to the large volume of
floating Indebtedness, the sum total
of which runs into millions Of dollars.
The government owes this money 10
its citizens and many Of these debts
date back to the foundation of the
government. The United States is an
elusive debtor. and it has often been
said that II the government were an

Claims against the government are

United States cannot be sued under

plicated that vexatious delays are
inevitable.
The number of claimants who have
accounts against the United States
and who are seeking relief through
legislation and who have bills before
the Ffty-seventh congress exceed
those Of any prior congress since the
close Of the civil war. Although the
session has but fairly commenced over
LOO bills have been presented In the
senat and referred to the committee
on claims for action. An equally large
number. most Of them, of course. being
duplicates Of the sen tie bills. have
been introduced In the house. These
bills embody the clai rs Of large
number Of schools and churches. and
Of many corporations, and aggregate
in amount over 81. 900 900.
This 3l3. 900. 900 represents only
those claims which have been put into
the form of bills and presented 70
congress for consideration. The claims
growing out Of the recent war with
Spain. the Chilean wal claims. and
others not yet before congress repre-

The wonders of the Arabian
Nights live again In three large halls
which compose the great treasury o.
the sultan Of Turkey. Priceless jewels
CLEAN on every side, rare and costly
curios, coins from all lands. and fur
niture studded with precious stones.
1t is very rarely that any but royal
eyes are permitted to look upon this
masnificence. At the entrance Of the
first hall stands a throne. which was
captured from the Persians; it Ia near.
~ covered with pearls and precious
stones. An enormous emerald adorns
the center Of another jewel-studded
throne. A dressing table studded ali
over with pearls is among the furni-
ture.
In this room is also a marvellous col.
lection Of gold and silver cups plates
and dishes. jeweled dasgers and
knives. suits Of armor, and cases con-
tanning hundreds Of necklaces, brooches
rings. In the midst Of all this
splendor. ancient and modern. arc
very up~-to-date dressing bags, cameras,
telescopes. and even a case Of raxors,
all with hne silver mountinss. but
seeming rather out Of place amonR
such regal surroundings.
Gold and silver ornaments and brio

second hall, including q collection of
quaint little toys made Of precious

SENATOR wARRrN's WARNING

Senator Warren Of Wyoming gave
the members Of both houses Of con-
gress warning that II the people Of the
arid region could not secure the aid
they are entitled to from congress ia
the construction Of irrigation reser.
voirs BY direct legislation applicable to
irrigation they would return to the old
policy Of demanding aid through the
river and harbor bill.
TIE west should be assisted In the
construction of irrigation works which
It 10 impracticable fcH private or state
capital to build. and 1t may in Justice
demand recognition in the river and
hasbor bill. 1t would be better to con
tinue the tight for irrigation along lore
direct lines. but the construction of i-
rigation works IL sufficiently closely al
lied to river and harbor improvements
to Justify appropriations In the river
and harbor bill for such reservoirs.
The senate has not forgotten the cir
cumstances under which the river and
harbor bill was killed only a short time
ago because Justice was not done the
cause Of aEid-land reclamation. Upon
that occasion the senate was taught
that western men have . power which
1t times they may employ with great
force. The west must stand for its
own interests whenever It becomes evil
dsnt that II no other way can justice
b secured. In respect to irrigation.
The senate hes this year done its part
BY passinG the bill and sending it to the
houee. But Senator Warren's warning
