Ex-Gov. Ross, who Is now the heavy
weight editorial writer on the Deming
Headlight, is in the capital to-day opening
his eyes at the size and dignity Of the
state constitutional convention. The San
Marcial Reporter calls attention to the
fact that Gov. Ross spent some time in
Washington urging the admission Of New
Mexico, which it thinks In strange con.
trast to his present editorial utterances on
the subject. The Silver City Enterprise
says that was year ago, and it is hardly
the proper caper to ring in cold deck on
the governor at this stage Of the game.
Pauline, the beloved elder daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. s. Spitz, fell asleep in
death at s O'Clock this morning after a
brief but painful illness. She died from
fever which had its origin in diphtheria.
Every attention was given the child from
the first day OF her illness and for weeks
the fond parents kept up their ceaseless
vigil beside her, but all to no avail, and
for second time within few weeks this
household is enshrouded in sorrow. The
little one was 6 years Of age in April last
and was most lovable child, particularly
bright and vivacious. The profoundest
sympathy of the community is with the
bereaved parents. The funeral will take
place at 10 q. IN. tomorrow.

SENATE IRRTGATORS.
Senator Stewards Party Take Toslimony
In Denver.

DENVER, Colo, Sept. 1.-THE senate
committee now investigating the question
of reclaiming arid lands in the west by
means OF establishing reservoirs for irriya.
ton held a meeting yesterday in the
chamber OF commerce. A number of
prominent people were present who
thoroughly understand this question and
the benefits to be derived from it. Among
these were Senator Teller and Gov.
Cooper. The testimony taken from, those
best informed was to the effect that tie
entire eastern portion of the state could
be irrigated by the reservoir system and
hundreds OF thousands OF acres of land
now worthless converted to the best agri-
cultural land on the continent; that the
storage system was undoubtedly the most
practical, and if one-haf the water which
wentto waste every year was stored, there
would be more than sufficient to reclaim
every acre of land in the state. The COM
mission left for Cheyenne to-day.

Mrs. Langtry,s Divorce.

New YORK, Sept. 17.-Although siren
uous efforts have been made to keep the
matter secret, cables received from Lon
don leave no reasonable doubt that Mrs
Langtry has secured divorce from her
husband. Around the theaters and clubs
the report found general belief, and it was
said by more than one acquaintance who
is familiar with Mrs. Langtry's affairs
that her principal object in leaving this
country was for the purpose OF getting a
divorce in England.
"Of course she will at once marry
Freddie Gebhard," was the remark Of
everybody OH the Rialto; and there
seems to be no doubt that this is Mrs
Langtry's intention.
MIR. Gebhard is in this country, but. it
is generally understood Mrs. Langtry's
principal object in returning to the old
country was to secure this legal separa-
ton from her husband.

WASHINGTON, Sept. l7.-Sec. Noble has
appointed r. V. Belt, assistant commits.
sioner of Indian affairs; A. M. Tinker,
Indian inspector, and q. w. Psrkes, spe.
cial Indian commission to negotiate with
the Sysseion and Wahpeton Indians, OH
the Sysseton reservation in Dakota, for
the surrender of 1000 acres of their
lands. The Indians have already agreed
to take lands in severalty and the coinmis-
sion is instructed not to enter upon its
duties until after the patent, in severalty
for l27,SS7 acres, has been delivered,
which will probably be done within the
present month. Each male Indian OF

81 years OF age, who received lands in
severalty under the general allotment act
in FEBRUARY, 1881, thereby becomes citi

Epoch,

The transition from long, lingering and
painful sickness to robust health marks
an epoch in the life of the individual.
Such remarkable event Is treasured in
the memory and the agency whereby the
good health has been attained is CRATE
fully blessed. Hence it is that so much
is heard in praise of Electric Bitters. So
many feel they owe their restoration to
health TO the Use of the great Alternative
and tonic. If you are troubled with any
disease of kidneys, liver or stomach, OF
long or short standing, you will surely
find relief by use OF Electric Bltters. Sold

Home Products vs. Imported Capital.

CTuCk, DIS Is our custom every Saturday,
and while we were replenishing our some
what impoverished wallet by disposing of
the turnips, lettuce, radishes, young
onions, etc, to the hotel keepers, and
while the good dame was depicting same
by the purchase of household necessities,
we had an excellent opportunity of study
ing the Situation"
The hotel keepers and all others of that
class complained loudly of hard times,
dull season, etc, while my neighbors, who
had come to town on the same business
as myself seemed unusually happy and
contented. Almost without exception
they expressed themselves as being more
than pleased with the situation" Their
oranges (or at least that portion of them
that had not rotted In transit) had net
ted them a snug little sum their groves
were in fourishing condition, and their
gardens gave great promise for the fut-
ure
The question naturally arose in our
mind, Why are one class of our people
happy and prosperous and the othernot?
Even our slow, plodding brain soon
solved the riddle: One class depended
entirely upon imported capital and the
crumbs that drop from the tourists, and
the other upon home production. That
was the solution in nutshell, and no
one, we believe, who has given the matter.
bo+ So
rect one.
This matter of home production, or
rather the discussion of the matter in the
agricultural press of the country, is a
veritable chestnut, but as that Internal
nuisance the chestnut bell, has been rele-
gated to state of innocuous desuetude
and at it's best was an implement not in
general use by our big-brained farmers,
we will brave the frowns and maledictions
of your readers by touching upon the
subject again.
In the first place we will presume that
everyone agrees with us when Wereiterate
the statement made above, to-wit, that
the prosperity of our people depends en-
tirely up home production; that SO long
as they wait and depend upon migratory
capital, their seasons of prosperity will
be like angels visits-few and far between.
This being the case let us see how we can
profit by the knowledge we possess; w W
do not intend in this -
- UTuIzens in the northern and
western portions of the State, for the
reason that they need none. They are
located in an agricultural country and
have long since, unlike the people OF
South Florida, learned the fallacy OF the
one-crop system, and are rapidly extend
ing their labols in other directions than
those to which they were formerly we'd
ded. and are on the high-road to ever
lasting prosperity through the gates OF
diversity (of crops).
In the first place let the Yankees (God
bless 'em) learn lesson from the much
ridiculed Cracker. of which long-suffering
family we are an humble member. Let
them sink their arrogance and their lofty
disdain for all things that pertain to
this humble class of people, and copy, at
least in some things, their methods, and

patch, our gardens, our cotton fields and
our bunch of cattle These we're never
failing, sources of revenue, and supplied
our every want.
We do not desire to be looked upon us
a ghoul in the graveyard of the past,
or one who exhumes bygone deeds for
pedantic purposes, but simply as an in
dividual who, while not hypothetecatfng
the credit due our modern developers,
still yearns for the good old days of the
past, and believes that if the methods of
those times in reference to home produc-
tion were emulated our country would
develop just as fast as under the present
system, and that our people would be
infinitely more prosperous. How is it
to Florida SO chock full of enthusiasm
for the orange business that good COM
mon sense, which would naturally lead to
a diversity of crops, is entirely crowded
out or made to take back seat The
newcomer is controlled by his enthusi-
asm. He puts his energy and his capi-
tai into making an orange grove. This
is good SO far as it goes, but what is he
going to do during the ten years that
will intervene before the orange grove
will make him and his family bread and
butter? The question is all easy one to
answer. He will have a mighty hard
time to make both ends meet if he is a
man with limited capital, which is gener-
ally the case.
We are not afraid of being classed as a
hyperbolist, except, of course, by the
omnipresent pessimist, when we say,
and we speak from experience, that it is
possible for the people OF Florida to live
at home-i. e., without the aid of the
tourist and independent of the store
houses and canning factories of the
North.
Let the newcomer fortify himself first
with a good garden. And by a good
garden we do not mean little patch of
ground ten feet square, but one sutfi-
GENTLY large to contain a sweet potato
patch that will produce tubers enough
for his family the entire year A cane
patch (please excuse the Cracker express
sion) that will yield sweetning enough

readers how ar orange grove had been

COMMITTED FOR TRIAL.

The preliminary examination of
John +. Bush on the charge Of libel
resulted yesterday in the defendant
being committed by Police Justice
Foster for trial TO the Supreme
Court. W. c. Achi, complainant,
gave some spicy evidence. He said
he was the only half-white lawyer
that had advised some of his clients
to plead guilty in the instruction
cases, and his motive was to procure
light sentences for them. Bush the
defendant came to his office and
accused him of receiving brides for
such advice. He brandished roll
of yellow paper in his face, saying
it was the proof of Achi's guilt,
and he told complainant he was a
fool if he did not know that the
King was in collision with the
rioters.
