NEW MEXICo's MINING INDUSTRY

John S. Crawford, mining engineer and
member of the Geological society of Lon
don, kindly sends the New MEXICAN a
copy of his recent circular letter calling
attention OF capitalists to the mines of
New Mexico. Mr.. Crawford sets forth
many points OF timely note on this sub
iect, showing the value of the output of
the various camps for the past year, and
indorsing Mr.. Hadley's estimate OF the
years production as placed at 81, 023, 1884.
The letter concludes with these cheering
words:
reports OF active mining such as not
been known for the past eighteen years
come from every district from the Mis-
souri, to the Pacific coast. New methods
for the treatment OF ores whereby greater
savings are obtained are being adopted;
the passage of the silver bill-now law
has placed the value Of the ounce OF
silver at $l.20. Prospecting and general
mining have received an impulse that is
astonishing. The years output, predict,
will be greater than for many years, and
the business Of mining conducted and
worked on more stable and conservative
basis. The miner and mine owner have
now standard of value for their produc-
ton and may receive the return so justly
deserved. The lower grades of ore are
placed upon paying basis; this class OF
mining industry is melted to further de-
velopment and exploration, which, in
this particular district aud the mountain
counties of other states and territories,
insures a safe and handsome return to
the capital required to open and work the
mines producing these classes of ores.

OF course, no sensible man, when he
lays aside partisan feeling canvote mo- on
such an all-important question as this. 1t
simply means progress or retrogression.
Thus far the anti-statehood people have
lost ground daily. They simply can not
stem the tide the Democratic party itself
can not afford to longer oppose this step
of progress in view of the fact that this is
a life and death struggle for advancement.
New Mexico must this fall 60 to the front
or to the rear. If the territory is not ad-
mitted under the constitution now before
the people and to be voted on October 7,
it will be many long day before this
deserving people shall enjoy the blessed
boon OF self government. If the admis-
sion of New Mexico Is shut out for years
by the reputation of the pending consti-
tuition, the Democratic party must stand
the consequences.

The people of New Mexico must not
forget that under the Ross Doodle admin
istrstion, from 1885 to 1889, when this
territory was cursed with corrupt judges
and dishonest federal and territorial court
officials, the cost of running the courts
was 100000 per year; the people must
not forget that, owing to wise and bene
nclal legislation passed by Republican
legislature over the veto of that Doodle
governor, put into Office by Grover Cleve-
land, and owing to JUS, and honest ad-
ninistration of the courts, the entire ex-
pense of their administration for the first
swelve months of the present Republican
regime, amounted to only 100000, in
which sum there is included an estimate
OF deficiency in tho pay Of Jurors, etc.,
of about 100000; this means that under
the Democratic administration the people
of New Mexico were systematically and
constantly robbed by corrupt Judges and
dishonest court officials.

DURING the Democratic administration
from 1885 to 1889, the expenses OF the
territorial prison amounted to $52, 900 per
annum. During the first year under q
Republican regime, from March 4, 1889,
to March 4, 1890, the expenses, with the
same number of prisoners, were $29, 900.
1t is plain to any person who can read
and understand that the management
under the Democratic administration was
dishonest, and the management under a
Republican administration is honest.
That is all.

After all, a good many prominent Dem
ocrats have not the heart to oppose state
hood. They, as well as the rank and file
of their party, comprehend the situation.
This was apparent in the county Demo-
cratic convention which took place at the
Santa Fe county court house yesterday.
The foremost speaker before that assem-
bly,, Mr.. N. B. Laughlin, who is counted
something of leader among the local
Democrats, actually made a pretty fair
statehood speech. He did not paw the
air and call upon the people to clown the
constitution, as was expected, but in
stead he confessed he had never read the
constitution However, he said he would
do so, and he advised his hearers to do
likewise and then "vote upon the question
as they deemed best for their interests. 3"

UNDER the impetus given it by its adj
mission as a state, Idaho is rapidly COM
ing to The front. Capital and immigra-
ton are pouring into it, business is more
prosperous than ever in its existence as a
separate commonwealth, and all kinds
of property, especially real estate and
mines, have greatly appreciated in value.
There is no reason at all, why this self
same thing should not come to pass in
New Mexico, unless the people are I'M
willing to have it, and vote against the
constitution when submitted to them on
October 7, next.

SENATOR VEST, a Democratic senator
from Missouri, opposes the admission OF
New Mexico, because good many of her
people can not speak the English Ian
guage; and Senator Reagan opposes the
passage of the land court bill, because a
Republican president would have the
appointment Of the judges of the court,
and because New Mexico's prosperity
might hurt the Democratic state of
Texas. Great statesmen those. The
Democrats in congress give it to the peo-
pie Of New Mexico at every possible OPP
portunity.

The New MEXICAN is inf ormed tina
Delegate Antonio Joseph is against the
passage OF the bill now pending in con-
gress for the settlement Of Spanish and
Mexican land grants, because it contains
provision limiting the area Of all grants,
that may be approved by the court, to
eleven leagues. This provision OF the bill
would seriously interfere with the approv-
al of the two grants of about 100000 acres
each, claimed by Antonio Joseph ct al in
Taos and Rio Arriba counties. ode We
moind that" as the Irishman said.
