A BROAD POLICY.

Reciprocity continues to forge ahead at
a rate that must certainly be gratifying to
the producers and trades people OF the
United States. When the history OF
President Harrison's administration shall
have been written there is now no longer
any question but that it will stand out
prominently as marking one of the most
important epochs in the long and brilliant
record of presidential achievements OF
this nation. There is scarcely week
passes but that important trade history is
not made. 1t is not now difficult to look
ahead and see that Gen. Harrlson's adj
minstration is not only going on record
as one of peace and unbounded prosperity
at home, but as a remarkably brilliant and
memorable one so far as concerns the ex-
tension of American trade interests
abroad. 1t is plain that the broadcast pos
sible expansion of our nations mercantile
and industrial influence is to be the cen
tral idea of this administration. Not in
years has it fallen to any president
to surmount so many obstacles IN
bringing about these great achive'
ments; the administrations of Cleve'
land, Arthur and Garfield have had
smooth sailing compared to President
Harrison's. He has not been content to
handle home affairs only; his has been q
broad, far-reaching policy, and one, too
which no true American can undertake
to review without feeling just pride in
its success

Statehood for New Mexico.

1t is amusing to see our Democratic
friends exercise themselves over the
question of statehood. They seem to be
all in favor of it and are getting around
to the Chieftain's way of thinking in
times gone by. New Mexico ought to be
a state, but the powers that be in Wash
ington are not making new states on the
eve of a presidential contest. You may
as well keep on toasting your shins, gen.
temen. The elevator will have made
many trips below and most of you will
have gone that way before New Mexico
becomes state.-Socorro Chieftain.

The Best Kind of an Advertisement

San Juan county should take steps to
have good representation in the perma-
nent exhibit of the resources of New
Mexico, now being arranged by the bureau
of immigration at Santa Fe. Samples Of
coal, building stone, grain, vegetables
ETC., should be sent forward. They
would be the best kind Of an advertise
ment, and work wonders in making
known to the world at large the manifold
resources of this wonderful region.-San

The fact that both Germany and Eng

many now think.

THE U. S. senate has seated Senator
Call as q senator from the sovereign state
of Florida although the governor of that
state has appointed another man to the
place. The U. S. senate evidently has
not the fear of a sovereign state before
its eyes and does not regard the governor
of Florida as a great constitutional author
itv: in all of which the U. S. senate is
evidently eminently correct.

believes Ill thC "otclhoHbs
Our sister territory, Arizona, emphati-
cally defined her position on the question
of statehood in the recent constitutional
election. Whether or not Ter action will
place her nearer the desired end, We are
glad to see it, as it indicates clearly how
widespread is the desire for progress and
home rule. In New Mexico, there has
been during a year and half remark
able change in the minds of the people
with re tard to statehood, and if the ques-
ton c)ul now te submitted to them they
would as emphatlcally express their desire
for selfgovernment as did the people Of
Arizona. If this fact Can be impressed
upon the minds of the powers that be-,
there is scarcely doubt that congress
will grant an enabling act This obtained
we shall have gained great advantage,
and will be in even better position than
Arizona. If the friends of statehood for
New Mexico will pursue this line of action
we believe success will crown their efforts.
