NO WATER AT EL PASO.


FL PasOaus were murhlY worked up
yesterday morning when informed that
water had been shut off from all places in
the city except hotels and saloons. 1t
was generally known that there was bnt
little water in the Rio Grande. Still the
public gave but little thought to the sub
jet, being confident that their friend the
Rio Grande would supply all the water
needed. But their confidence was mis-
placed. The great international stream
that has been made famous in sony aud
poetry is q stream no longer. The bed
Of the river is there but that Is all. The
water has been taken out by those above
US. Yesterday morning Times reporter
met Mr.. Watts, superintendent OF the
waterworks, and asked him what he
intended to do. Mr.. Watts said.
This il hard question We are dig
ging for water in the bed OF the river and
have gone down fifteen feet without any
encouraging results. thought the seep-
age would be sufficient to supply US for
several weeks; but | do not find it so In

supply to the fire plugs, | do this for the
protection of our property owners, for

But it is my opinion that we will not have
to resort TO such extreme measures, as |
believe that we will find plenty of water
a little further down."

KNOCKED GOLD.


DR.. George Vasey, chief botanist rep
resentng the department OF agriculture,
arrived in Santa Fe few days ago on i
mission which has long interested a great
many of the New MEXICAN's readers.
rs heretofore stated, his mission was toi
the purpose Of locating the government
agricultural experimental station icr
which it was long ago announced con-
gress had provided, granting an appro-
priation of $4,000 to each OF the states
and territories. 1t seems now, however,
that great blunder has been made, and
that, as usual, the territories will ba LEFT
in the lurch. The following is sent out
from Washington in the press dispatches:
First Comptroller Matthews has deci.
led that the appropriation OF $500 900
made for agricultural experiments sta
tons can be used for the benefit only OF
lhe stations for which the estimates were
made, namely, $4,000 each for stations
in each of tWenty-nine states and the t. r.
ritory Of Dakota, at agricultural depm t.
meut and that no part OF the appropiia
ION can be used in the establishment OF
such stations in any of the territories with
the exception Of Dakota, that being the
only one included Ill the estimates upon
which the appropriation was based"
DR.. Nasey is at present in the Mesila
valley, where he went to look over the
held there with the view OF selecting 4 site
for tho New Mexico station, under the
that the $4,000 from the
national treasury was available for this
and all other territories.
There are now iorty.six agricultural
experiment stations il the United States,
over $40 trained men in the
prosecution OF experimental inquiry. The
government appropriates about S600,0JO
a year for the carving on OF this work,
$l5 600 being paid to each state. 1t is
really most unfortunate circumstance
hat the territories are to be left out just
at this vital period in the agricultural his
tory OF the west.

TAKE NOTICE.

Almost daily travellers come into
Phoebe expecting to find ready employ.
ment and are disappointed. This comes
Of the reckless spreading of rumors con.
corning the prosperous condition of the
place. This is not done by the news.
papers but by private parties who have
very little regard either for their own
word or for the welfare of others. The
fact is that Phoebe is at present in a
more prosperous condition than it has
experienced for years. But this is al
most entirely due to the expenditure of
large amounts Of money in preparatory
work, and the hope of the citizens that
this work will be crowned with success.
1t is not due, to any considerable extent,
to the present actual productiveness of
the mines, the only true basis of pros.
perity for mining camp. True, we all
have firm faith that the mines will soon
give up store of wealth as great as, or
greater than, ever before. On that hope
substantial Improvements are being
made in every direction, and the prices Of
real estate have advanced considerably.
Yet it is only hope. Men are not be.
ing put to work as fast as they arrive
here. A good many men are working,
Yet there also many that are idle. As
soon as the field for labor is enlarged the
RECORD will joyfully announce it.
Meantime we deprecate the rush to this
place Of the unemployed.
