The Progress and Developments of that Ter
ritory-Its Resources.

WASHINGTON. Sept. l3. - In compliance
with request from the Secretary of the In
terror, Governor Sheldon, of New Mexico,
has just made full and interesting report
upon the affairs, progress and development of
that Territory. He begins by referring to
the present security of lite in New Mexico,

have been killed by the Indians in the Ter
ritoTy since October, 1881, and that there are
10 signs OF hostile demonstrations.
Preparations, however, have been made to
spec dily crush any hostile movement and
the Indians are aware of the fact. The Grim

deserved are quite certain q. the hands Of
Juries. As a result of this improved
state OF affairs, immigration has been
renewed and industry and enterprise
grow day by day. The taxable property OF
the Territory in 1888 amounted 10 $27 49,
903 sgsinst S14 cSS 554 in 1881. The taxable
value of railroads was fully $l5,000000. but

years TO come. If proper care had been ex-

or believes $50 600 600 instead of 81 ,000, 900
would have been the least value of
taxsble property.
There are in New Mexico 600. 900 acres OF
available land, which are highly productive
and not expensive to cultivate. There are
also lands enough when developed To sustain
100000 cattle, 100000 sheep; horses and
mules enough to carry on the business of the
country. The great wealth of the country,
however, lies in its minerals, gold, silver,
copper, lead, iron and zinc, and coal
being abundant, the resources as yet
being undeveloped. Estimates based upon
the poll tax returns give the territory
population of $50 000 of which number
three-fourths are natives of the country and
spesk the Spanish language. Governor
Sheldon at attention TO the urgent reed of
proper school system in New Mexico and
10 the importance of having q session of the
Territorial Legislature in January next. He
also recommends that Congress create

Of homestead and pTe-emption laws he says

country has been 10 foster LAM monopoly of
a mcst Objectionable character. Locations
are made embracing a spring or extending
alor a stream, and the surrounding lands
are valueless to any one but the owners of
water. Hence a man who obtains 160 acres
with exclusive water privilege controls the
use of a vast tract without cost or tax.
