The water Of the Pecos river is pract-
cally inexhaustible. Capitalists realize
this fact, and are stringing canals from
one end of the stream to another Be-
sides the canals at Roswell, Eddy and
Pecos, there is one under way at Grand
Falls, thirty-fye miles below Pecos.
Seven miles of it are already completed.
1t will have plenty OF water when finished.
Enough waste water passes through the
scour-gate of the great dam near Eddy, to
supply half dozen canals.-Argus.

Poor Harrison.

Since the result of the great calam-
ity which has befallen the Republican
party has been publicly announced, the
newspapers of the party are hunting
about for the cause of such an over.
whelming defeat, and Benjamin Har-
rison is charged with a great share of
the responsibility. In summing up
the result the Spokane Falls Review
says:
eff Benjamin Harrison were q great
man he would lift his party out of this
slough of despond, would put quietus
upon the hopes OF the Democracy, and
give the country the most beneicent
financial legislation of more than a de-
cade. If lie were equal to the occasion
he would have free coinage measure
passed through the present Congress,
and would give it his approval and
thus restore our currency to its normal
condition.
There is no probability, however. OF
Mr.. Harrison facing the difficulty in
ESQ bold q manner. He will probably
allow the Republican party to DRIFT
along in the hope that something may
"turn up" in the interim. Possibly il
may, but the safer course would be for
lsim to turn it up himself"

The South Unnecessary.

The reason given by Mr.. Reed why
the force bill should be enacted, SAYS
the New York World, was that the
Democrats are in the habit of steal
ing" certain Southern districts. Mr..
Reed did not know how many. Some
times he said it was twenty, and some
times thirty. He thought if he could
absorb these with the Force bill his
party would have perpetual control OF
the House of Representatives.
If Mr.. Reed will consult the returns
of the recent Congressional elections
he will find that he was mistaken. II
the Republicans should he presented
with Democratic Southern districts
there would still be a majority against
them in the next House pf 81.

DOES PROTECTION PROTECT?

q. 1t is constantly affirmed that i
this system OF taxation is not main
tanned, the country will be subjected to
n Hood OF foreign imports; and that oul
laborers will be defrauded of opportu
nifty of employment, and be reduced
thereby to distress and pauperism. Is
there any good basis for s lch assertions
~. They are mere prctcnsc and hum
bug.
z. How can this be demonstrated?
Can high-priccd American laborcrs
compete in the same occupations with
foreign raupors?
A. Paupers in one place are the same
rs paupars everywhere. Their labor is
always unskillful, slovcnly, poor and
costly. They are not dreaded in COM
petition by workingmen, at home and
Tor the same reason pauper labor is
not to be dreaded Gf any such exists)
IN the manufacturing industries of Eu.
rope.
z. Is there no other answer to this
stock argument of the protectionists?
y. Yes; the real answer is to be
found in the indisputable fact, that
nearly every branch of work which is
conducted in this country, either of ag-
rlculturc, manufactures or mining, is
done here, because it must be because
1t is necessary that it should be; be-
cause no one will or can do it for us.
q. Under what conditions then, do
the arts and manufactures of the Uni
ted States exist?
a. Nine-tenths OF all the arts and
manufactures OF the country exist | y
reason OF necessity, and not by any
system OF revenue laws; not by any
discrimination in the imposition OF du.
ties; not from any cause which it is
the power of legislators to promote,
except by assuring personal safety,
the enforcement of contracts, and an
earnestly earned dollar as the unit of
money.
q. What branches of domestic in
dustry owe their existence to a protect
i've tariff?
a. There is not single great branch
OF domestic manufactures which had
not been established in some form in
this country long before protective
tariff had been or could have been i'm
posed. The manufacture of iron is
nearly as old as the history of every
colony or territory in which there is
any iron ore. The manufacture of
woolens is as old as the country itself,
and was more truly domestic manu-
facture when our ancestors were clothed
in homespun than it is now. The
manufacture of cotton is almost as old
as the production Of the fibre on our
territory. So also of the manufacture
OF leather, boots and shoes, hardware,
furniture, woodenware, paper, spirit
uous liquors, &C., &c. And when you
go beyond these, there is left only COM
paratively few persons employed on
glass, pottery and silk.

The PhiladelDhia Record publishes ,

TIE Philadelphia Record publishes a
story about Mrs. Harrison's going
Shopping in Baltimore and being sur
pTiscd to find many substantial in
creascs in the prices of dress goods
and pearl buttons. In every case the
salesmen explained that the increase
was due to the Mckinley bill. The
story goes that Mrs. Harrison believed
that she was recognized and that the
increased prices were Democratic fic-
tions gotten up to spite her. Repub-
licans may be capable of believing
that merchants would beat themselves
out Of the patronage OF the Presi
dents wife in order to crafty political
'aaimcsities.

evening. 1t was not only the inaugural

fondly designated swell society of st.

memorable, and success literally
crowned their efforts. Lights streamed
from every window of the building at
early candle time, and long before the
usual fashionable hour the sound of
music flOated out over the river and
was echoed from the bluffs beyond. The
attendance was very large, each men,
