With All Our Faults, the Op tic Loves us
Sill.


Still.
A little less talk and little more ac-
ton on the part of the county and terri
torial authorities seem to be needed in
San Miguel county Let us have it, and
that speedily. y.-NEw MEXICAN.
A little more attention to home affairs
and less concern about other parts OF the
territory would seem to be demand of
the hour in Santa Fe, particularly on the
part of the fossilized sheet from which
the above insinuating editorial paragraph
is scissored bodily.-Las Vegas Optic.
1t is the policy Of this paper never to
answ er charge.-NEw MEXICAN.
And for the reason, it is, that in nine
cases out of ten-yea, ninety-nine out of
hundred, the charges are as well found
ed as the rocks of Gibraltar, and to at
tempt to dsprove them would be to get
yourself in an inextricable knot in the
meshes of public opinion-that of con-
demnation of the course of the sheet,
which is never fair and always wickedly
unreliable when there is bare oppor-
tunity of scoring point for Santa Fe.
This is a suicidal policy alike for the resi-
dents and the paper, and it is coming to
be regarded in the proper light by the
people of the territory. The New MExI-
CANS "tow-line" is thing OF the past.
Pity the poor old runt of a paper. As
Walton mot Tom once remarked: "Of
tame pigeons are croppers, carriers and
runts. LAS Vegas Optic.

The Crops in the North and East,

ST.. PAUL, Mimi, Aug. 15.-On account
of the hot weather and lack Of rain pre-
vious to the present week the former esti
mates OF 100, 100000 bushels as the wheat
crop in the Dakotas will probably be q
little out OF the way.
Omaha, Neb.-Advices from nearly ev.
cry county in the state show the condi-
ton of corn far below the average, sew
eral counties being entirely ruined by hot
wind. In the extreme western counties
where irrigation was tried the wheat has
yielded heavily.
In Iowa the indications are that corn
will average about a half crop compared
with last year.
indianapolis. s.-Reports to the state ag
ricultural board indicate the wheat yield
about 90 per cent of the average crop, and
corn will mature half a crop. Fruit is a
failure.
Columbus, Ohio.-The growing grain
and corn is badly injured The indica-
tions are that only from 60 to rs per cent
of the average crop can be realized. Oats
are badly injured by blight or rust, and
apples, peaches and pears are almost a
total failure.

Cattle in Western Texas.

Fort WORTH, Texas, Aug. 15.-Mr. A.
S. Nicholson has just returned from ten
days trip through the western part of the
state, having visited Taylor. Nolan,
Mitchell, Howard, Borden and other
counties, where large cattle interests are
located. He said that the entire country
visited by him was in good shape-much
better than the section in this part of the
state. This, he said, was attributable to
the good rains which had fallen in the
west.
81 never saw cattle looking better than
they are now," he said, "and the grass is
very good. 1 visited several large ranches
while out, and was gratified to see things
in such fine condition"
He says no sales are made of stock cat
tie, and on account of the eastern markets
being so bad just now no shipments OF
beef cattle are being made. Cattle men
in Texas this year are able to carry their
cattle over until next spring, and they
will do so unless there is decided i'm
provement in prices, which is not looked
for, nor can it be expected until the
Wholesale shipments from Kansas, the
Indian territory and other maturing Sec
tions are over"

The Albuquerque Democrat Still
Hates Santa Fe.

The Republican territorial adminlstra-

will at SO per thousand. DR.. Longwill
has sold the same to the United States for
$4 thousand. The price at which bricks
were sold under the late Democratic ad-
ministration was IS per thousand Net
loss to the people by Republican manage
ment, 81 per thousand. No comment is
needed. The figures speak for themselves.
Albuquerque Democrat.
The 3,500,000, if sold at all, were sold
direct, and not through DR.. LongwiIl, at
81 per thousand, and the government
may purchase 100000 more at 81. What
are they going to do about it elsewhere ?

WAsHTNGToN, Aug. 15.-The president
sent to the senate the following nomlna
tions:

the act OF July II, 1890.
Samuel w. Albaugh, to be postmaste,

THE HERo's REMAINS.
Representative O'Neil of Pennsylvania,
has reported to the house from the com.
mittee on library the senate concurrent
resolution requesting the president to
convey to the widow of Gen. Grant the
desire of congress that the remains of
Gen. Grant be removed to the Arlington
cemetery. The committee recognizing,
they say, that it is simple expression OF
the universal wish of the people of the
United States.
BLAIR ON PROHIBITION.
Mr.. Blair has reported favorably from
the committee on education and labor a
joint resolution to introduce a bill pro-
posing an amendment to the constitution
to favor prohibition in the United States
in the manufacture, importation, exporta-
ton, transportation and sale of all alco-
hollc liquors used as beverages.
TELLER's NEW SILVER BILL.
Senator Teller has introduced new sill
yer bill in the shape of an amendment to
the present bill to discontinue the coinage
of So and 81 gold pieces and 3 cent nickel
pieces. The bill differs from the present
law principally in that it requires a con-
tinued monthly coinage of 100000
ounces of silver into standard dollars and
strikes out the provision that that rate of
coinage shall be until July |, 1891, only.
1t does away with the discretion given
the secretary of the treasury to redeem
treasury notes issued in payment for bull
lion either in gold or silver and provides
for the free coinage OF silver when the
market price of 81. .25 grains reaches 81.

WONDERS OF THE DEEP.
Hill and Valley on the Ocean'sl Bottom.
The Track OF tho Cable.

| The sea occupies three-fifths Of the sur
| face of the earth. says the Ocean. AT the
depth of about 800 feet waves are not felt.
The temperature is the same, varying only
q trifie from the ice of the pole to the burn
ing sun Of the equator. A mile down the
water has a pressure of over ton to the
square inch. If "a box six feet wide were
filled with sea water and allowed to evapo-
rate under the sun, there would be two
inches of salt left or the bottom. Taking
the average depth Of the ocean to be three
miles, there would be layer of pure salt
$50 feet thick on the bed of the Atlantic.
The water is colder at the bottom than at the
surface. In the many bays on the coast of
Norway the water often freezes at the bot
tom before 1t does above. Waves are very
deceptive.
| To look at them In storm one would
think the water travelled. The water stays
in the same place, but the motion goes
on. Sometimes in storms these waves
are 40 feet high, and travel so miles an hour
more than twice as fast as the swiftest
steamship. The distance from valley to
valley is generally fifteen times the height,
hence wave five feet high will extend
over 76 feet of water. The force of the sea
dashing on Bell Rock is said to be II tons
for each square yard. Evaporation is
wonderful power in drawing tho water from
the sea. Every year layer of the entire
sea, II feet thick is taken up into the clouds.
The winds bear their burden into the land,
and the water comes down In rain upon the
fields, to flow back at last through rivers.
The depth Of the sea presents an interesting
problem. II the Atlantic were lowered
from 1854 feet the distance from shore to
shore would be half as great, or 500 miles,
If lowered little more than three miles,
/ 10, $50 feet, there would be a road Of dry
land from New Foundland to Ireland.
This is the plain on which the great Allan
tic cables were laid. The Mediterranean is
cOmparatively shallow.
A drying up of 660 feet would leave three
different seas, aud Africa would be joined
with Italy. The British channel Is more
like pond, which accounts for its choppy
waves It has been found difficult to get
the correct soundisgs of the Atlantic. A
mid shipman of the navy oyercamo the
difficulty, and shot weighing 80 pounds
carries down the line. A hole Is bored
through the sinkef, through which rod
of iron is passed, moving easily back and
forth. In the end of the bar a cup is dug
\ out, and the inside coated with lard. The
bar Is made fast to the line, and sling
holds the shot on. When the bar, which
extends below the ball, touches the Garth.
the sling unhooks and the shot slides off.
The lard in the end of the bar holds some
of the sand, or whatever may be on the
bottom, and drop shuts over the cup TO
keep the water from washing the sand out.
When the ground is reached a shock is felt,
as if an electric current had passed through
the line.

A Gentleman Farmer Defined.
rom the baltimore Herald.


Old Colonel Maynadier, of Anne Arundel
county, Md, was large slave owner Tho
colonel spent good deal OF his time away
from home. One time upon his return he
took drive over his property, and on his
way met small colored boy.
"Whom do you belong to, boy?" the
colonel asked.
"Why, sab, I-I,longs Ito Colonel
Maynadier, sab. F"
"Who's he?" Inquired the colonel, to
see what the chap would say.
"H-h-h's farmer, sab. "
"What sort of q farmerY"
"Ge- gentlemen farmer, sab. "
"Gentlsman farmer!' repeated the colo
mel. "What kind ola farmers gentle
man farmer?"
"W-well, sab, Z" spoke up the colored
boy, "h--he's a farmer dat don't raise no
'bacco, sab, a-and has 10 buy his con,
