TOO MUCH OF A BOOM.

Gloomy stories come from California
these days. The long and unusually try
ing winter has kept the tourist element
east OF the Sierras, causing the loss Of Il
business heretofore very profitable. The
land boom has faded away. The lnces-
SAINT dOWnpOur ii rain in the southern
hall and snow throughout the northern
part Of the state has fallen like pail
upon the farmers. 1t is now too late to
SOW wheat in many districts and still the
rains continue, the total fall ior the year
ID many localities being forty inches, and
added to this is the "retched condition OF
the iaLoring classes. There are ten APP
plicants for every job. 4 San Francisco
paper says that i'll that city there are 25,-
100 labOring men out OF employment.
There also 900 families have been evict-
ed from the tenement houses, being un-
able to meet their rentals. This gems
scarcely credible, yet the Pacific coast
press faunts it to the world under glarin-
headlines. This is the aftermath OF Il
boom that witnessed mad rush through
New Mexico a year or so ago, For New
Mexico We do not desire that sort of d
boom. A steady, healthy growth and a
gradual, but sure, influx of good class Of
immigrants is what We need, and the in
.!ications are that we will obtain them.
