Arrange the words in alphabetical

When you are writing down the
words leave some spaces, in the A, E,

Irrigation In China.

The question Of modern irrigation
is one of the greatest Importance to
North China and one which the Chin
ese government appears never to
have considered. Year after year the
crops fail from lack Of rain. immense
tracts of country are laid waste, the
people suffer and become restless.
There is ample water to irrigate the
greater part of this territory, but to
do so requires large capital and q
wait of two or three years for returns.
The returns. however, would be great
and the security ample for any foreign
capital China might wish to borrow for
this purpose.

Tuesday, February 6.

Washington. Chairman Hepburn
in charge of the railroad rate bill IN
the national house Of representatives
|iis unable TO see the end Of discussion
of that measure. Under the special
order II has the right of way until
disposed Of. The very first day OF
the debate, which began last Tuesday
developed the desire Of many mem
bers to make speeches. An extra
hour was added to each day, and still
the list of applicants for time grew
larger. Mr. Hepburn has long list
of Republicans who are anxious TO be
heard. and Mr.. Adamson. controlling
the time on the minority side, says
there are fifty Democrats who wish
to be heard in favor of the measure.
Senator Gallinger, who as the chair
man of the merchant marine commits
sion has charge of the bill. says he
will be satisfied with. the setting of
any time within reason for the TAX
ing of vote, knowing that with a
unanimous agreement to vote once ar
rived at there will be no doubt that
a vote will be secured. The bill will
be amended somewhat before a vote
is taken.
Much interest is manifested in the
approaching contest In the senate
over the statehood question. Senator
Beveridge. who will again have charge
OF the bill, is hopeful of securing a
comparatively early vote, but many Of
his colleagues fail to agree with him
on that point. The supporters of the
bill are very strenuous In its advo-
cacy and their opponents are just as
determined. II is not generally ex.
pected that either side will yield I'M,
til there Is more definite information
as to the probable result OF vote
than can now be secured. The critl-
cal point Of controversy will be the
Foraker amendment giving the Arizo-
ma people the privilege Of voting on
the onestion OF admission. 1t is TN,
derstood that the Democratic senators
will be almost q unit In support of
this amendment, and that 1t will also
secure number Of Republican votes.
Just how many Republican support
ers there may be Is not known. and

until there Is definite information on
that point the opponents Of the bill
will not agree to let vote be taken.
If the showing should be favorable to
the amendment, the friends Of the bill
may not press the vote; but, in view
Of the fact that they would even In
that event be sure OF the admission

Of admission to the people Of Arizona

The urgent deficiency bill will be Ia
ken up In the committee on appropria-
tions early in the week and will prob
ably be reported few days later.
The provision In this bill which will
be most debated Is that relating to
the abrogation Of the eight hour law
in the canal zone. AS the bill carries
the remainder Of the deficiency for
the canal, asked by the war depart
ment, which was cut off In the first
bill passed, It is believed canal mat
tiers in general will again be the sub
ject of considerable talk in the SEN
ate. Theres-is no suchs emergency as
when the first canal appreciation bill
passed, and consequently senators
will feel free to give as much atten.
ton to the administration Of the canal
as they choose.

sENAToR WARMERS BILL HAS
FAssEo THE SENATE.
flor MISSOURI WAR CLAIMS,
Union Men Furnished Federal Troops
Supplies - Original Amount Was

sion to Fix Amount.
Wednesday, February 7.

Washington. The senate today
passed Senator Warmers bill provid-
Ing for an investigation by the treas
ury department into Missouri civil war
claims, known as the Third Install
rnent Missouri war claims The bill
was one which has been urged
through number Of congresses, and
was offered last session by Senator
Cockrell. The same bill has been in
troduced in the house. and has an ex-
cellent prospect Of being passed.
1t provides that in the examination
of vouchers and proofs any person
having evidence Of Indebtedness,
scrip or certificates, may appear be.
fore the accounting officers of the
treasury department to submit the
evidence for the purpose of making
complete report Of the amounts Of
money which may be due.
Senator Warner believes that he
will have all Of these war claims adj
justed within the next year or two.
He has in his possession an affidavit
from Hon. Clay Taylor, Of Missouri,
which sets forth the character Of the
claims. He was member of the COM
mission appointed by the governor
of Missouri to audit and adjust them.
In the course Of his affidavit Tay-
lorsays that the claims were based
on military supplies furnished by
Union citizens of Missouri to Federal
troops operating in the state. The
claimants all gave vouchers given by
quartermaster, commissary and ordi-
nance officers of the Federal army.
Under an act of the state leglsla-
ture, passed March 10, 1874, steps
were taken to arrange for the pay
ment of the entire war debt of the
state A commission appointed under
this act held extended meetings at
Jefferson City and there they examin-
ed every one of the claims which
amounted in all to about 100000.
The commission was appointed by
Governor Silas Woodson. Of Missouri,
and included in its membership was
q former colonel in the federal army
and a former colonel in the Confeder-
ate army. Colonel Taylor In his aft
davit says: mo better class of claims
were ever presented to commission
for allowance"
