Members of congress were to-day paid their
mileage at the rate of ten cents q mile each
way, which helps some of them out ofthe hole
in which they were placed by Silcott. To
those members near the capital the amount
is not great, but to those "far away" the
sum each receives is by no means insgnif-
cant. Minnesota members receive on the av-
erage about $500, while those from the two
Dakotas rake in perhaps $34O each, Florida
5000 each, Texas same as Dakotans, CalifOr-
mans $500 and Oregon $3.50.

CLIMATIC CONDITIONS.
Interesting Data Collected by Govern.
ment Officials.

WASHINGTON, April 5.--Iast July the
senate passed a resolution directing the
transmission of reports prepared under
the direction Of the chief signal officer
upon the climate and climatic conditions
Of Oregon and Washington territory.
These reports, together with the illustra-
tive charts and a letter from Gen. Greely.
have just been published, and in view OF
the emigration to the far northwest, will
be found to be of general interest The
rainfall upon the Pacific coast is the
heaviest. in the United States, ranging
from 70 to l07 inches annually, but this
enormous fall covers only per
cent of the area OF Oregon and
Washington territory.
On the other hand the area where less
than ten inches fall is less than 5 Der cent
of the whole. Wheat can be grown in
nine-tenths of those two states without
irrigation. Owing to the e1uable rainfall,
agricultural operations are more fruitful
with small rainfall than in some Sec
tons of other states with considerably
larger precipitation. Remarkably equable
temperature conditions also obtain, the
entire rain of mean annual Temperature
over this territory being but So degrees
ASH at Fort Colville in northwestern
Washington territory, to "a degrees al
Ashland, Ose. In 800 miles of latitude
along the coast the range of temperatur,
in the summer time is only 3l5 degrees
from So at Port Angeles, w. T., to 59l,
at Fort Stevens, Ore. During the winte
months the mean temperature of NOR
than half OF these states ia above freezin
point, and on the coast ranges betwee1
40 and 45 degrees.
Gen, Greeley says: "To summarize
Oregon and Washington territory ar
favored with climate OF unusually mild

coast regions have very heavy rainfalls

A Worthy Undertaking.

New Mexico continues to make real
American progress. Now comes the ini-
tial copy Of the Southwestern Poultry
journal, published weekly at Las Cruces
by j. A. Lowe. It is q neat publication
of twenty-four short columns and as iul
OF readable matter as d chestnut is of
meat, 1t is intended to be practical
poultyman's journal, and will no doubt go
a long way toward stimulating this par
ticular branch of business throughout the
territory. New Mexico has one of the
finest climates in the world for the rear
ing of poultry. AT present we send prob
ably, $50,O0O a year out OF the territory
for eggs, chickens, ducks and turkeys.
With our unsurpassed climate, cheap
labor and luxuriant alfalfa fields there is
no reason why New Mexico should not
keep this money in circulation among
her own people. This new journal should
receive substantial encouragement. Mr..
Lowe, the New MEXICAN greets you cor

OFFICIAL AND POLITICAL.
The Attorney General and Judge White
man-.The Governor Knocked
Out-News Of tho Day.

A remarkable turn has the judgeship
contest for the Santa Fe district taken at
Washington. A special dispatch in the
Globe Democrat of the 4th inst says:
Mr.. w. H. Whit oman, OF Albuquerque,
saw the attorney general on Wednesday
about the place on the supreme bench of
the territory. Mr.. Whiteman was nolni.
mated for associate justice, but the Swiss
legation preferred charges against him,
claiming that he had failed as admins
traitor to turn over some of the assets OF
an estate to the Swiss heirs. The senate
adjourned, leaving the nomination hung
up. Mr.. Wbiteman's purpose in calling
upon the attorney general to-day was to
ask that recess appointment be made,
so that he could at once 60 upon the
bench, trusting to confirmation at the
regular session next winter. The New
Mexicans who are here pretty generally
Joined in asking the recess appointment.
Mr.. Whiteman's defense to the charges is
that he has the money, but can not pay
it over until the Swiss heirs prove their
claims.
The interview with the attorney general
to-day was rather remarkable. The con-
versation, as narrated, ran something like
this:
"Mr. Whiteman," the attorney general
remarked, "you say you are ready to turn
over this money to the heirs whenever
they prove their claims?'
eyes," replied the Albuquerque attor
ney. 81 have sai4 that ever since the claim
wes made, and ] say it now. l am ready
J with the money whenever the heirs pre-
sent the proof"
"That is fair enough" said Mr.. Miller
"Now can you get for me the certifi
cate of the officers of some bank that tn,
J money is on deposit with them awaiting
} the proof OF heirship? If you can do tina
think there will be no question abou
making the recess appointment"
"But l can't do that" replied Mr.
