quilted on the ground of self-defense, and
ls also excused from blame by all of Mr..
kyes' friends. Both of the bows were
we'll and favOrably known all over the

shipped four car loads OF cattle to Kansas

While other sections OF the union are
being devastated by food and tornado
and robbed of life and wealth by wind
and water, New Mexico remains in placid
security blessed with plenty and llappi-
ness. 1t is doubtful whether tornado |
could arise in our favored land and cline.
and if arising more doubtful yet could it
depopulate and destroy; while the mere
mention OF the possible overflow of the
rivers within the domain and the occur
renee of u flood anywhere in its productive
valleys and lowlands is the pinnacle of
fancy itself. New Mexico is dry and
sunlit land, and listening to the roar of
the wind Of the tornado and the wild
splash of the ensulfng food that comes
to us from other places, accompanied as
these are by the groan of the dying and
the wall of the ruined, We say it is good to
be here.-Sentinel.
