The emperor of Austria has for years
past found consolation for his troubles
in the sympathetic companionship of a
former well-known Viennese actress,
Catharine Schratt, whose counsels are
said TO have been of the utmost advan-
tage to him in many important affairs
of state. The emperor is accustomed
to drive out 10 the palace of SchOen-
brunn and there, leaving his equipage,
he is. met by Nine. Schratt and takes
long promenades with her in the forest.
As a result of this friendship the actress
is known in Vienna as the vice-empress.
Her extraordinary intelligence and clear
Judgment are valued in the highest de-
gree by the emperor.

Veterans Getting Cheap Rates to Detroit,
Mich.
DETROIT, Mich, July 2O.-The Ohio
visitors to the G. A. r. encampment
are coming at the rate of one cent
per mile. The Columbus, Hooking Val
ley & Toledo. the Wheeling & Lake
Erie and the Cincinnati. Hamilton &
Dayton roads, the three main north and
south lines through Ohio. have
agreed upon a one cent per mile
rate, and the transportation COM
mittee of the Ohio G. a. r. has
made these roads the official lines.
The influence of the cut upon the
other roads is problematic. A promi-
nent member of the Michigan pasSen-
ger association said last night that it
would lead to a general smash in rates
on all lines The Baltimore & Ohio
and Big Four will be compelled to meet
the rate or surrender the business, and
if several other big roads should follow
suit the passenger associations would
have merry war upon their hands

Regularly every morning at certain
hour Mr.. Bowser goes upstairs to dress
himself.
Five minutes after he has disappeared
his voice is heard calling over the ban
lister:
"Mrs. Bowser, do you pretend to run
this house, or are you lady boarder
with cartload of novels for baggage9"
Whats the matter, dear?"
Don't dear me! I'd either have a
system or acknowledge that was a
failurer'
But what is ito"
Look here!''
and with his right he points to it in
dramatic way and hoarsely whispers:
Buttons, Mrs. Bowser-buttons!"
what about buttons?" she asks
Not a button on this shirt-not one!
Four buttonholes, but not a button!
All been washed off, and not one re-
placed"
''Mr. Bowser, you haven't had shirt

buttons; there they are just as you took
them out of your other shirt!"
lie is caught. He realizes it, but
after gasping once or twice he braces
up and replies: -
Every we'll, Mrs. Bowser! Next time
1 go home I'll take my shirts along and
see if mother can't possibly find time to
sew on some buttons! I've had to use
these because had no others!"
The other awfully hot day he came
limping home and fell into a chair and
groaned:
'I'll be hanged if don't hire a blind
woman to come here and look after my
things! My feet are all cut to pieces
by these Internal old socksr'
''Old socks! Why, bought 'em new
for you only three days agor'
"Holes in both of 'em, but might
have expected that Look therer'
He pulled off his shoes and displayed
a pair of all-wool socks with hole in
the heel of each.

those socks on?" she exclaimed. 81

new pairs of summer socksr'
"They weren't there"
''But they were, and you went into

Mrs. Bowser, you said I'd find socks
in the bottom drawer of the bureau"
Yes"
"Well, there isn't sock there. There
isn't the slightest reason to believe you
ever put a sock there. I'll bet a mil
lion dollars to a cent there are no socks
there!''
"Come upstairs!'
He followed her up, and she went to
the bureau, pulled out the drawer and
pointed to the six pairs of socks resting
there.
"Yes, 1 seeT" he observed, as he
backed off. But where were they last
night when wanted them?'

ton of the people of New Mexico, and
it has ever been found battling for their
best interests and their advancement.
Even within year it is apparent that
the bond OF friendship between Colorado
and New Mexico has greatly strength
ened, until now the Denver press, which
is really power, the just pride of every
citizen of the Rocky mountain region,
has almost come to feel that New
Mexico is part of its local territory.
This we are pleased to note and hope to
encourage it, and it is for these reasons
that New Mexico has much to hope for as
a result Of the Mississippi CONNER
cial congress which on May 10 assem- bles
at Denver. The delegates to this conven-
ton have not as yet been named by the
governor, but they will be soon, and we
sincerely trust that every citizen of New
Mexico upon whom this honor falls will
make it point to 60 to Denver and take
an active part in furthering the objects OF
this important assemblage.

agriculture and manufacture and always
will do so. He says truthfully that "the
arid region is the richest mining district
on the globe" Then he estimates with
probable accuracy the total value of the
product of gold, silver, copper and lead
in the Rocky mountain states and terri
tories during the year 1890 at about
$13l 100000. Mr.. Nimmo then says
"The value of the manufactures shipped
into this area last year was about $751;
100000, and of products of agriculture
about $3O,00O,OO0. The demand for
eastern products of agriculture in the
Rocky mountain states is increasing
faster than the supply and already con-
stitutes a larger market for such prod
ucts than Cuba, Porto Rico, Central
America and South America combined"
The expectation that "the arid region"
so rich in mines, will not only remain
valuable market for eastern products, but
will also grow more and more valuable
each year, is based on the assumption
that irrigation will not change existing
relations. Mr.. Nimmo says that "irriga-
ton simply creates GASES in what would
otherwise be vast pastoral region, in
capable of producing any agricultural crop
whatever" He estimates that there is
water enough to reclaim only about or
per cent of the land. He thinks the
boundaries of Kansas and Nebraska mark
the western limit of surplus agricultural
products.
In the facts which this writer states
there is much Of suggestiveness to the
people Of the silver and gold, and copper
and lead producing states and territories
of the Rocky mountain country, says the
Colorado Sun.
Last year they dug out Of their mines
$l3l 100000. Of this they paid out to
the east $sO,0OO,OOO $3.50 100000 for
manufactured articles and $50, 900, 900 for
agricultural products, chiefly grain and
fruit, They thus had left to themselves
of the product of the mines SOL ZOO, 900,
less the amount of dividends sent to east
ern stockholders.
There is lesson in this. 1t shows the
amount of needless tribute that the far
west is paying to the east. The assump-
ton that irrigation can not change the
relations of the two sections is not we'll
taken. The Rocky mountain states and ter
ritories in their valleys and their plains
certainly have land enough to raise the
products to supply all their population.
There are great stretches of plain that
need only water to make them really pro-
ductive. There is water enough, as it
runs now, with the spring surplus I'M
utilized, to irrigate great deal more than
or 5 per cent of this area.
These figures, adds the Sun, are the
certain assurance Of good returns for all
advertisements that may be made in ag-
ricultural development and in manu-
featuring enterprises. They should serve
as a powerful stimulant to the construc-
ton of irrigating canals and the opening
of farms and to the establishment of
manufactures.

WITHOUT making much noise about it,,
the Springer cement works are leading
of in business this spring in a manner
that ought to encourage the establish
ment OF other manufactures in New Mex
leo. An order for seventy car loads of
this cement has just been booked. In
almost every part of New Mexico can be
found rock from which both natural and
artificial cements, even plaster of paris,
can be made at about one-fifth the cost of
importation. This territory should be an
exporter rather than an importer of such
Articles.

We are pleased to note that Col. E. A.
Carr, of the gallant 9th cavalry, is in
Washington pushing his claims for pro-
motion to be brigadier general Of the
army upon the retirement of Gen. John
Gibbon, which occurs on the Goth inst.
Col. Carr is eminently qualified for the
place, and We are sure President Harri-
son would make no mistake in conferr-
ing the honor upon him. The 10Th leg
islstive assembly of New Mexico recently
passed unanimously resolution calling
upon the president to promote Col. Carr,
and while he has number of influential
opponents, still his chances for success
are first rate. Among his opponents are
Col. Otis, supposed to be the pet Of Sec
cretary Proctor; Col. Kautz and Col.
Forsythe, whom Gen. Miles gave such
drubbing during the Sioux campaign. A

THE DENVER CONGRESS-"

A copy Of the proceedings of the "Wsst-
ern Congress" held at Galveston on Feb
ruary 7, and which has just been issued
in neat pamphlet form by the Galveston
Chamber of Commerce, reaches the
New MEXICAN. There has been some
question as to the authority for holding
one gathering called the Western Com
mercial Congress at Kansas City this
month and another at Denver next
month, and the competition that has
sprung up between these two live cities
has caused no little confusion in the
minds of many western people; but this
copy of the full proceedings had at the
initiatory congress" at Galveston clearly
decides the question in favor of Denver
Every state and territory west OF the
Missouri was represented in this first
assemblage at Galveston; and there the
foundation was laid for and an adjourn
ment taken to Denver, May 10, when the
momentous work Of the trans Mississippi
commercial congress" will be taken up.
Whatever may come of the Kansas City
enterprise, it is clear that New Mexico
should look most earnestly toward Den
yer for any good this territory is expected
to receive from such gathering. There
was time when Kansas City had it in
her power to accomplish great good for
New Mexico; time when every pound
of freight shipped in here came from
Kansas City and our people looked toward
the other end of the Santa Fe trail
for all the modern blessings of life
but that time has now passed.
Kansas City has never shown the least
appreciation of the trade that the great
southwest has thrown into her lap for
years; her press and people have found
other things to occupy their attention,
making not the least effort to foster this
trade. A year ago this month when forty
of the leading citizens of New Mexico via
tied Kansas City en- route to Washington
and went before the Kansas City Com
mercial club, it was evident to most of
the visitors that they we're regarded as
the representatives Of some very obscure
foreign province.
On the other hand, look at the way in
which Denver's leading men have within
few years grasped the situation. They
have come into New Mexico for business
and they have got it; the press of Denver
has time after time shown its apprecia-
