ing to Panama.
 Madrid. Sept. 29-The Spanish Gov ernment, alarmed at the Increasing im- migration of Spanish laborers, has en- tered upon a vigorous campaign to put q stop to the exodus and Is directing especial efforts to prevent laborers go- ing to Panama for work on the Isth- milan Canal.
 The government claims to possess proof that the laborers are grossly de- ceived by the recruiting agents of the Canal, and that upon their arrival at Panama they are compelled to live and work under most atrocirus conditions. The complaints. however are plainly traceable to the Spanish landlords who find their workmen deserting under the prospect of better wages abroad. With in the past two years thousands of Spaniards have gone to the Isthmus.
 Since the advent Of the Maura cab- met. the government has been espee- ially active. Senor Cieova, the Min ister of the Interior. has drafted most vigorous laws to restrict emigration and will present it. for the approval of the cortes when it assemblies next month.

press the belief that the Federal courts should not be permitted to interfere in purely State matters. They are of the opinion that the State courts should be supreme within the States. so long as they do nothing in violation of the Federal law. The representatives of the Eastern States are not apparently inci'ied so strongly to this view of the matter and the difference of opinion is likely to provoke some interesting de- bate in the conference.

Iron Springs, Ariz. Aug. 6.-(Special
correspondence of The Republican,
In my daily walks in and about the
rocks and pines of Iron Springs, /
came across the Mature Faker'' whose
talks and dissertations on animal life
of the camp might interest some of the
readers.
The Mature Faker' finds full scope
in and about the Springs. Elk, bear
and mountain lion are rather scarce
just at present. but there is an abund-
ance of small game. Scientific nomen-
clature is probably out of place in the
society columns, get there are certain
forms OF animal life which need to
be enlarged upon somewhat by title.
For example. the number of horribilus
longipeds. commonly known as
granddaddy longlegs. is beyond
computation. They furnish a
source of great amusement for
the children. and woven into daisy
chains. form unique as well as Animal
ed decorations. These perambulating
high balls are very cosmopolitan in
their tastes. and show no respect OF
person in their visits. The monsrati-
bus. Incorrectly referred TO as mice"
is distinctly in evidence everywhere.
especially after the lamp is blown out.
This humorous rodent is not half ap-

disappear at the same time would
excite the envy of slight of hand per-

Snakes are rare this summer and,
strange to say. the minister seems to
