Why Eve Didn't Need a Girl.

A lady writer in one of our ex-
changes furnishes some of the rea-
sons why Eve did not need a hired
girl. She says: There has been a
great deal said about the faults OF
women and why they need 50 much
waiting on. Some one "a man OF
course) has the presumption to ask,
"Why, when Eve was manufacture
ed out of a spare rib, a servant was
not made at the same time to wait
on herr, She didn't need any. A
bright writer has said. Adam
never came whining to Eve with a
ragged stocking to be darned, but
tons to be sewed, gloves to be men
ded fright away-quick, now!"
He never read the newspapers I'M
til the sun went down behind the
palm trees, and he stretched him
self, yawned out, sis supper ready
yet, my dear!" Not he. He
made the fire. and hung the kettle
on it himself, Wen venture, and
pulled the radishes, peeled the po-
tatoes, and everything else he
ought to do. He MIXED the COWS,
fed the chickens and looked after
the pigs himself, and never brought
home half dozen friends to din
ner when Eve hadn't any fresh
pomegranates. He never stayed
out till eleven o'clock at night and
then scolded because Eve was sit
ting up and crying inside the gates.
He never loafed around corner gro
ceries while Eve was rocking little
Gains cradle at home. He never
called Eve up from the cellar to
put away his slippers. Not he.
When he took them of he put them
under the fig tree beside his Sun
day boots. In short he did not
think she was specially created for
the purpose Of waiting upon him,
and he wasn't under the impression
that it disgraced a man to Tighten
a wife's cares a little. That's the
reason Eve did not need a hired
girl, and with it is the reason her
descendants did.

Every section of the country nc
matter what latitude or altitude
produces p%eStiverous Insects, and
New Mexico is no exception to the
general rule. We have here
sage "~citzen" and God only knows
how many more, who, in the
presence of a promising future, to
reeB personal spleen will or would
clog the wheels of the car of pro-
gress which now awaken u PEG
pie and threatens to roll over,
all who do not jump aboard. So
far asthls journal is concerned we
propose not being a party to the
tight or bottle holder for either of
the combatants. We could wish
that they could be transmorgrsfed
into angels tomorrow, and while
it might not be a good thing for
the New Jerusalem it would GER
tainly be for White Oaks. Their
thirst for prominence is too
droutghy and the LEADER foun-
tain is and will be closed against
them. Their quarrel is personal
and should be fought out on some
back alley. We own space enough
of one for the fight, and will freely
donate its use. But our columns
will not be sewers through which
either Of them shall pour their
slime.

THE OLD HoMEsTAKE.

II. B. Ferguson, attorney and
agent for the heirs of Jack Winters,
took possession of the North Home
stake mine "a the fourth inst. and
commenced work. This is a step
in the right direction, the work
already done proving that the
mine is very rich at a depth of
eighty-five feet. In this work Mr..
FERGUSON is not only doing good
service for his clients, but is also
indirectly benefiting every man in
White Oaks. And we can safely
say that the entire community is
in sympathy with the move,
hoping that it may be entirely sue
cessful, and that those who have
SO long stood in the way of devel-
opment may be completely ousted.
Two years have passed since work
to any purpose has been done on
this, n of the richest gold mines
ever discovered. Why this delayl
In answer it can only be said,
that it is the general belief that
that there is a ''nigger in the
fence" somewhere, it being well
known that quantities of gold have
been taken from the mine which
ought to pay for the work done.
Bnt, if the men who have so long
persistentIly refused to do anything
to improve this valuable property
when it was plainly their duty to
do so, have hoped to force a sale
to pay the alleged debts Of the
Winters estate, of which to
say the least, are manifestly unjust
if not for and fraudulent obtain
the property for a mere song, their
scheme is a failure.
Mr. Ferguson has labored in
vain to work in harmony with
parties interested, but, failing in
This, now comes to the front as the
representative of a controlleing in
crest in the cold Homestake",
with intention Of working the
nine and paying the honest claims
against the Winters estate, there
doing great good to many and
larm to no man.
writing tie above, Mr..
J. j. Dolan and his lady, who are
part owners of the North Home
have arrived in town, and
rom conversation with Mr.. Fer
,urson we learn hat the action of
he latter in proceeding to develop
his valuable property meets with
Mr.. Dolan's approvl. In fact,
Mr.. Ferguson informs us that Mr..
has at all times manifested
desire to do whatever is reasona-
lie and fair to all concerned with
eference to this matter. Since
Mr.. Dolan's position is known, all
re more hopeful of continued
york, and consequent benefit to
he camp.

White Oaks seems to be destin.

First we had the Homestake mill,
which proved a complete failure
Now, we r to have the Thomp-
son-Tasker Pulverizer.
For a great many years they have
been trying, in Colorado, to find a
process that would, successfully,
supplant the old stamp-mill; but as
yet, nothing practical has been
found, and the old stamp-mill pro
less h"a to be returned to, after
every experiment. We hope and
believe that this time White Oaks
will have the glory to see the reali-
cation of the idea "no more
stamp-naiWs !"
