Our willy friend, Msjor Powell, of the
geological survey, seems to be getting
severely left in the distribution of public
irrigation enterprises. Judge Gregory, q
very worthy Kansan, has been given the
management of the government artesian
we'll experiments, and $4,000 is at his
disposal to carry them out in Kansas,
Nebraska, eastern Colorado and New
Mexico and the Panhandle region of
Texas. 1t must break the WHY MAJORS
heart to see so large a sum as this ex-
pended i'll western water experiments and
realize th"t neither the sons nor the
nephe"s, nor the cousins and the aunts
OF MS favorite congressman, will get
whack up on the salary list of employees.

IMMIGRATION from Europe for the first
three months OF the present year shows
u lar e increase over 1883 and 1899. Now
Why should people come TO this country,
ii the howls OF free traders that the
''robber tariff is running us is true? 1t
is conceded, even by the most blatant
and loud mouthed free traders, that peo-
pie come over here in order to better their
material, political and moral condition.
Now if the ''robber tariff is such a fear.
full load to carry, why is it that 10000
able bodied men leave free trade England
every twelve months to make their
homes in this, accor ling to the free trad
ers, God forsaken "robber tariff ridden
country?

In response to the New MExIcAN's
query as to what authority the Ell Paso
smelter men have for disappearing
New Mexico miners on the lead question,
the Ell Paso Times says; "The miners
Of New Mexico are not blind to their in
terests. Their profits must cease going
into high charges for smelling and long
freights for railroads" This is no answer
TO the question. The people of Ell Paso
persist in trying to create the impression
throughout the east that the miners Of
this territory would like to see the cheap
~ mined lead ores of Mexico admitted
free OF duty. Nothing could be further
from the truth.

WIrH the exception OF this county,
namely, the county of Santa Fe, there is
not single municipality in this territory
that is not in excellent financial condition
and whose bonds are not safe invest
ments. Pretty good record this for the
people of New Mexico. 1t shows con-
cIuslvely that, as a general thing,
they know how to govern them
Ives. and are careful and honest in
the managing of public affairs. The
trouble in this county can be directly and
Indirectly ascribed to the corrupt Demo
cratic county government with which it
has been cursed for the past few years.

GOOD WORDS FOR NEW MEXICO.

The Denver Republican is helping our
territory in many ways and often and
the people OF New Mexico should hear
this in mind. Referring to the delegation
Of citizens appointed by the governor ut
the request of the bureau of immigration,
and which delegation is to start for Wash
inston on Monday next, the Republican
in recent issue says;
The governor Of New Mexico has ap-
pointed delegation of some twenty-five
or thirty representative Inen to 90 to
Washington and present before congress
the needs of the territory, more especially
IN connection with the land grant ques-
ton. The gentlemen appointed have con-
scented to 20, and it is expected that they
will start in body within a few days
They viii remain in Washington rs long
as 1t may be necessary, or rs long as they
may think they can be of service there,
1t is to be hoped that the efforts that
are being made to induce congress to pro-
vide a suitable method for the settlement
OF land grant disputes will be successful.
The national government has tor long
time acted uniustly toward New Mexico
in leaving the important question of land
grant titles in that territory undetermined.
The settlement of the territory has been
retarded by the prevalent confusion in
respect to titles, and it would be idle to
look for much development OF the agri-
cultural resources of the territory as long
as the cloud which now hangs over them
obscures the titles to agricultural lands.
1t appears that New Mexico is on the
eve OF what would be great boom if this
obstacle were removed. A great deal OF
work has been done or is now being done
in the construction of irrigation bitches
and reservoirs. When completed these
bitches and reservoirs will provide water
enough to irrigate several hundred thou
sand acres. Both the climate and the
soil OF the valleys of New Mexico are
favorable for agriculture and horticulture,
and vast area of land would be brought
under cultivation if the titles were clear
and If the necessary means OF irrigation
were provided.

On July A last Grover Cleveland in an
Grafton in New York commended Tam
many Hall for cts time honored and
benef"ent principles" and paid glowing
tribute to its agency "in maintaining the
true spirit of American Institutions" And
now since the grand sachem and several
of the leading spirits Of Tammany Hall
lave been proven to be thieves and cor
ruptionsts, bride takers and perjurers, it
would be interesting to know what Grover
Cleveland thinks Of Tammany Hall about
this time.

THE statehood movement is assuming
grand proportions. 1t is becoming moe
and more reasonably certain daily that
with proper and iudicious work this terri
tory will be admitted as state during
the present congress, and if the Republi-
cans OF the territory elect Republican
delegate next November the matter of
admission can be looked upon as an al
most absolute certainty. The Republi-
cans can elect their candidate for con-
eress, all they will have to do will be to
unite, be loyal to the ticket and work
theoretically for the best interests Of the
party and the people.

THE Wisconsin supreme court gives it
out cold that it didn't mean it. Its famous
recent decision merely referred to the use
OF the bible in public schools 'as text
book" and it didn't mean to say that the
bible shouldn't be read in these schools
Oh 1t is a clean case of breakdown.

Last Thursday night a splendid dance was was had at the Court House under the auspices of Sheriff Creaghe with Don Ygnacio Bazan as floor manager. The gathering was select one with just enough couples present to allow all to enjoy themselves to their hearts con- tent. Dancing was kept up until the wee sma hours in the morning. Sheriff Creaghe never does things by halves, but when he starts in to have a good time he generally succeeds. Of the nu- merous ladies who graced the occasion, we noticed the following among those present: Mrs. St. George Creaghe, Mrs. Henry Tuning, and her two charming daughters, Misses Amalia and Juanita ; Mrs. Bessie Frank, Mrs. Pedro Montana, Mrs. Alfred Ruiz, Mrs. ". G. Scott, Mrs. J. L. Hubbell and Miss Alvira Alp odaca, and many others whose names we failed to learn. We do hope these social entertainments may not be allow ed to languish into ''innocuous desue- tude," but that they may become more frequent as the cool weather approaches us; for surely it does good in many ways to thus cause the people to come together at these social and innocent en- tertainments.

Put on the Brakes

If you find you are going down hill ir point of health. Failing strength, i'm. paired digestion and assimilation are the marks of decline. Check these and oth. CT indications of premature decay with the grand vitalizer and restraining tonic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Beginning at the fountain head, the stomach, the Bitters remedies its ineficiency, cor rects its errors, and sets it vigorously at work. The digestive organ is thus ena- bled to thoroughly separate from the food it's nutritive principles, which the blood assimilating, is enriched. Thus is the system nOurished, and being nour- ished and strengthened, abnormal waste of its tissues is stayed. Appetite, the power to rest well, a regular habit are also re-established, and the various func- tions move once more in their natural and healthful groove. The Bitters, moreover, is specific for and preventive of malarlal complaints, rheumatism, biliousness and kidney troubles.
