Circumstances.

We build our future thought by thought
For good or bad, and know 1t not;
Yet so the universe is wrought.
Thought is another name for fatei
Choose then thy destiny and wait,
For love brings love and hate brings hate
Mind is the master of the sphere,
Be calm, be steadfast, be sincere,
Fear is the only thing to fear
Thought, like an arrow, flies where sent
Aim well, be sure Of thy intent,
And make thine own environment
Nothing can bid the purpose pause,
Mind is the great primeval cause,
The Lord God thought, and 10! lie was
Let the God in thee rise and say
To adverse circumstance, Obey
And thy dear wish shall have its way.

BY WATER TO SWITZERLAND
Proposition TO Impound the Waters
of Lake Constance to Aid
Navigation.

Switzerland is about the last place one
would expect to see connected by water
TRANSFORMATION with the outer world,
saws the ST. Louis Post-Dispatch. Yet
a ship drawing six feet OF water mas re-
Gently made the run upstream fron
Strassburg TO Basel, and II is proposed
10 make the run feasible at any stage
of the water by impounding the waters
of Lake Constance, to which point naVi-
cation may easily be extended.
Consul Clifford of Basel reports that
the trial voyage was accomplished by
a shipbuilding firm in the Prussian-
Rhine province. The double-screW
steamer that made the trip was detained
two DAYS before one of the seven pom
toon bridges that bar the stream be-
tween the two cities through the op-
nosition of the Alsatian authorities 20
the extension of the water route from
the sea to Switzerland and southern
Germany. AS. however, the free naviga-
ton Of the Rhine is guaranteed by the
international compact of 1868, all the
bridges were at length opened and the
trip up the river against the furious cur
rent was accomplished in two days.
The experts on board the KnipcheeT
found that the channel in this part OF
! the stream is even more favorable &c
navigation than that between Strass-
| burg and Mannheim, which for several
years has given passage TO vessels bring
ing 100000 tons of freight to the former
city.
The importance of the enterprise may
be estimated by considering that while
Switzerland is now compelled to rely
on the railway transportation for the
raw material OF its immense industries
Germany so long ago as 1898 moved OF
her water course tonnage enough to saw,
about $25 100000 in freight charges.

A second Helen Keller is promised In
little nine year old Emma Kubicek OF
Carbon, Ill. An attack OF cerebro-spinal
meningitis left her blind and deaf at the
age of three years, and at six che was
placed in the Jacksonville, Illinois, school
for the blind. With patience that is
wonderful, her teacher, Mrs. Helen Jor-
dan, has taught the child, who entered
her department an untamed little savage,
to be neat, orderly and systematic. She
also, letter by letter and word by word,
taught her a vocabulary of about 5Oo
words, enabling the child TO conmuni-
cate with ease with her playmates and
teachers. Of course this is only the en-
tering wedge, but Helen Keller has
proved how great are the possibilities
for this child.
Years ago DR.. Samuel Howe's teaching
of Laura Bridgeman won fame for him
self and his wonderful pupil who be-
came a favorite of Charles Dickens, and
there was also young French boy, who
entered life similarly handicapped, who
took part in contest for prize. The
boys name has been forgotten by the
writer, but the following beautiful an
swers which he made to the examiner
have lived long in memory:
What ia pratitudeY
Gratitude is the memory of the heart
What is hopeY
Hope is the blossom of happiness.
What is the difference between hops
and desire?
Desire is tree in leaf; hope is tree
in flower; and enjoyment is tree IL

What is eternity?
A day without yesterday or to mo

Arizona republican., 1905-11-22
PHOENIX. ARIZONA, NOV. 22, 1905.
The Prevarlcators of Tucson.

The Republican has from time tc time alluded to the campaign of mis- representation of the joint statehood advocates both here and in New Mex ico. The latest illustration is the sending to the president by a quar- tette at Tucson yesterday of a set of resolutions adopted the night before representing that the county of Pima was practically a unit for joint state hood. Last week a so-called associa tion at Tucson caused the following to be disseminated by the Associated Press, to which former Governor Hughes as proprietor of the Star un- fortunately has access:
 Resolved, That the Arizona State hood Association of Pima county, con- sisting of substantial and representa- tive business and professional men. taxpayer all, hereby announce to the people of Arizona and the congress of the United States that we favor the admission of Arizona as a state in the union upon such terms as congress may grant, even accepting annexation of New Mexico rather than remaining any longer in a territorial condition"
 Whoever were concerned in the writing of those resolutions know that they did not set forth state of facts. They knew that Pima county as well as every other section of the territory was practically a unit against joint statehood and that the resolutions sent by the Associated Press as we'll as those sent to the president represented only the sentiments of a handful of lawyers dissatisfied with the judicial system of the territory. and former politicians dissatisfied with the exist ing order of things in which they are not participants.
 The authors of these resolutions are we presume, men of average honesty in the ordinary affairs of life. It is therefore strange that they should so brazenly prevaricate in a matter of such public importance as the joint statehood situation.
Arizona republican., 1905-11-22
A Friend of the Territories.

The Kansas City Journal is a con- srstent friend of the territories of Ari- zona and New Mexico, and is using its great influence for the defeat of any joint statehood bill which may be brought into congress, and it further urgesi that no attempt to join the two territories be made. A late editorial of the Journal says:
 'It will never be right to make one state of Arizona and New Mexico. The two territories are entitled to preserve each its own existence either as ter ritory or as a state. One is almost exclusively an agricultural country and the other is pre- eminently devot- ed to mining. The difference between the two is much like the difference between Kansas and Colorado. The people in each have made a magnifi- cent struggle to bring about better conditions and have succeeded. In each case the wilderness has been ov- ercome by the splendid efforts of brave men and women wno have subjected
 
 tier life and have learned to love the names of the vast areas for the bet torment of which they have spent their entire lives. They know (whether the east knows it or not) that a future of magnificent growth and prosperity is in store for each territory-that mining development and the results of irrigation and other means of enrich ment will bring to each a most impor- tant relation to the United States-a relation that fully warrants the dig nifty of statehood. All the recognized principles which have governed the action of congress with reference to new states are in favor of separate statehood. The great debates in con- gress on the new states show that the territories have almost an inalienable right to remain single as states. The geographical greatness of the territo- ries in question is such as to render it impossible that the two should be united with satisfaction to the people, In short, all the considerations seem to be in favor of separate existence. It is to be hoped that no attempt at con- solidation will ever be made
 The Journal believes that not only should Arizona and New Mexico not be consolidated, but that they should be admitted each as a state, and thus disposes of the only argument that has really been offered against separate statehood
 'The only consideration that can, with any snow of plausibility. be urged against separate statehood for Arizona and New Mexico is that the states of small population ought not to be giv- en so large a representation in the
Arizona republican., 1905-11-22

senate of the- United States. Idaho,
 Utah and Nevada are pointed to as
 examples of unimportant states hav-
 ing as many senators as the empires of Texas and New York, and the claim
 is made that this unbalanced condition
 already is. There might be force in
 this suggestion if it were the theory
 of our constitution that senators
 should be elected on the basis of pop
 ulation. Such is not the theory Sem
 ators are supposed to be wise men
 of national rather than provincial size,
 selected on the arbitrary plan of hav-
 ing two from each state. If small size
 and small population were to be fatal
 objections, Delaware, Rhode Island.
 West Virginia, Vermont. New Hamp-
 shire and other states would lose their
 places in the senate. It is true that
 some of the states of small population have seemed at times to be rotten
 boroughs,' but as a rule the smaller states have sent stronger men to the senate than the larger states. Web ster. Sumner, Hoar, Aldrich, Bayard. Edmunds, Morrill, and hundred oth- CT instances could be named. There is every reason to expect New Mex ico. Arizona and Oklahoma to send just as good men to the senate as New York, Pennsylvania or Texas. Missouri was a small state in popu- lation wnen Benton went to the sen- ate. So were the states represented by Clay. Calhoun, and hundreds of others who could be named. There is the further consideration that in all New Mexico and Arizona will before many years have very large populations as compared with what they now have and as compared with all the smaller states in the east. The mining development, the results of ir- rigation, the growth of the health seeking population, the influx of tour ists and sight-seers, the development of many lines of manufacturing will all combine to push the populations of he present territories near to or above l he mark of a million each.
