THE NEW MExICAN'S "WAY >

tanned good descriptive sketch OF the
Pecos valley, written by Col Max. Frost.
Las Vegas Optic.
Yes the New MEXICAN is always glad
when opportunity offers for it to reach out
and say good word for any part OF New
Mexico. The New MExICANis a territorial
newspaper in every sense OF the word,
never losing chance to say the best pos
sible thing calculated to advance the well
fare of all the people of New Mexico
That the Eddy county people appreciate
the article above referred to is shown in
the fact that they have ordered 5000
copies of it printed, and, in addition to
the article as it originally appeared, it is
to be literally illustrated. 1t will appear
in these columns in about ten days.

In view OF the recent enforced sale OF
the Rock Islands Kansas railway lines,
it is scarcely likely that there is any bases
for the report that the Rock Island COM
pany has large construction force in
camp in the Panhandle region and on
the move toward New Mexico. As
badly as We need railroads, and as much
as we should like to credit such reports,
we are compelled, in this instance, to
rather take the railroad wind out of the
sails of some of our misguided but other
wise very clever contemporaries. We
need the Rock Island in our business,
but just at present we see no way of get
ting the line this year.

The New Laws.

A pamphlet copy of the acts Of the leg
islative assembly of the territory of New
Mexico, Goth session, printed at the New
MEXICAN office, and neatly enough done,
has reached this office, by the courtesy of
the territorial secretary's office. A note
by DR.. B. M. Thomas, the secretary, ex-
plains that in the preparation of the laws
for publication, the text of the acts as
originally enrolled has been carefully fol-
lowed and errors, seemingly or otherwise,
must therefore be shifted from the shout
ders OF the publishers. The most glaring
errors, affecting the sense or intention of
the original, have been corrected, so far
as practicable, by the insertion Of proper
words in brackets, 81 LAS Vegas

WE would call the attention of New
Mexico farmers to the new California for
age plant, "afera," which is said to be
superior, in many respects, to alfalfa for
this soil and climate. 1t is particularly
valuable for dry, sandy stretches of land
where the winds prevail, and in Cali
fornia, about San Francisco, it is now
largely planted for no other purpose than
for holding down the sand and preventing
its drifting away by action of the winds.
Many places in New Mexico might profit
by planting "alfiera."

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3O.-In the matter
of the contest between the st. Paul,
Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway c0m4
pany and the Hastings Il Dakota Rail-
way company as to the right to certain
lands west of range IS west, III the Mar
shall land district, the secretary of the
interior has decided that inasmuch as
the Hartings & Dakota company def !
nitely located its line first opposite to
the lands in question, it has right to
all of said lands which are within its
granted limits, and the right to select
the others for indemnity purposes; but,
as the selections of the Hastings & Da- |
kota company were not accompanied bY,s
proper specifications of losses, they
must be rejected. and the lands in QueS-i
ton held subject to entry or selection
by the first legal applicant. The amount
of land thus thrown open to settlement
is probably 10000 acres.
In the matter of the OntOnagan 81

WHAT CHILL COULD DO.
The United States Navy Would
Have No Picnic.

LONDON, Oct. 30.-Although no credit
is given to the sensational cable dis
patches from New York alleging that
the United States had declared war
against Chilli, the present situation of
affairs has led to discussion in naval
circles of the chance of conflict. An
English officer having special knowl-
edge of the CHILEAN forces states that a
war might be very unpleasant for the
United States forces at the outset. and
that the task OF the conquest would not
be an easy one, though eventually the
United States would be certain OF vic
States squadron two ironcladS. one
cruiser, two torpedo boats, three i'm
prOvised cruisers and some other tor
pedo boats and cruisers.
The United States war ships Balti-
more and San Francisco could not at
tack the Gillian fleet with any chance
of success, especially under the de-
fenses of Valparaiso or Iquique. The
CHILEAN vessels Imperiale and Aeon
cagua carry each four-inch breech-
loader, with projectiles able to pene-
trate the armor of the United States
cruisers. If the Chilians remained on
the defensive only, the bombardment of
IquiQue and Valparaiso could be at
tempted by the United States ironcladS.
A blockade would be impossible. as the
CHILEAN torpedo boats would render the
efforts of the American vessels inef-
fectual. The general conclusion is that
the American navy would find the work
| terribly haraSSiug.

EGAN NAY COME BACK.
Chill Has Demanded His Immedi-
ate Recall.

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-The Evening
Post says: Patrick Egan is to be re-
called as minister to Chill Immediately
after the November election, not Oh ac-
count OF the u nited States, but on de-
mand of the Chilian government, accord
ing to gentlemen in this city who is in
constant communication with Valpa
raise, Santiago, Lima and other South
American ports in Chilli and Peru. The
circumstances are related as follows by
the gentleman referred to:
Immediately upon the accession to
power of the junta de gobiernO, after
the downfall Of Balmaceda, that body
cabled TO Senior Pedro Montt, in Wash
ington, directing him to assume charge
of the CHILEAN legation at Washington
as soon as the government of the con-
gressional party in Chilli should be
recognized by the United States.
Neither this department nor the Chiiian
legation of Balmaceda at Washington
would recognize the cabled credentials
of Senior Montt, but told him that when
duly written instructions were received
from Chill the legation would then re-
ceive him as ChiliS representative in
the United States.
The fact of Months appointment as
minister at Washington was also made
known to Minister Egau, in Santiago,
with the request that the latter inform
the department of state by cable of
Months status in the United States, as
Montt had cabled his government that
he would be obliged to await his auto
graphic credentials. 1t Is not known
that Egan ever cabled this to Washing
ton, so that Montt had to await the re-
ceipt of his formal credentials as minis
ter from Chilli. Upon their arrival via
the steamer Colon, via Panama, few
days ago, he lost no time in pre-
senting them to the state department on
Wednesday last.
At the same time that Senior Montt
was cabled to regarding his appoint
ment as minister, he received instruc-
tons through the same channel to de-
mand in Chilis name the recall OF
Minister Egan as persona non grata
| to the present Gillian authorities. This
request of Chilli was also shelved to
await the arrival of Months credentials,
and it is believed in Chilli, as well as in
| WashinetO ton, that Egan knew the Chill
! ian government did not want him and
used the slow process of the mail to i'll
form the state department OF Months
appointment as minister. 1t is now
stated upon the same authority thai
| Chill has again demanded Egan's re-
| call and that the state department will
reply 70 the CHILEAN government after
the elections have taken place, according
| to Chili'S request.

assembling a sufficient feet before Val
paraiso to compel Gillian respect is dis
cuSSed among naval men, and officers
think that Secretary Tracy will in
few days, if the dispatches from Chill
are not more courteous and reasSuriug,
send the Chicago and the Newark after
the Yorktown and the Boston, which
have started for Valparaiso, and later
on will support the vessels already
under orders for Chilli by others, lnclud-
ing, if necessary. the ships of the North
Atlantic squadron, now almost ready to
sail. Admiral Gherardi has unofficially
suggested to the navy department that
he be ordered to sail for Valparaiso at
once, with the Philadelphia and the
Concord. 1t seems probable that his
suggestion will be acted upon, though
no orders have yet been issued.
But the presence of the United States
feet would probably bring to Valparaiso
a large fleet of vessels of the British
navy. British itereStS in Chilli are large,
and it is assumed that any demOnstra-
ton by the United States would be
watched with concern by the British
fleet, and that if a determination to shell
the city were reached by this govern
ment, the lives and property of the sub

MARRIAGE BY MAIL.
Ida Bachelors Who Are Anxious
TO Be Mated.


FERGUS FALLS, Oct. 30.-It will be
remembered that last winter Mrs. Anna
E. BaSsett Rathbun, edltress of the Peli-
can Rapids Pioneer, proposed to estab-
lish rural haven for husbandless
women. She assigned as the reason for
so doing that in New York city there
were thousands of women who must
either Starve or lead life of sin. The
statement was printed in her prospectus
in boldface plea type, and it happened
that 1t fell under the eyes of seve-
raj young bachelors up in the town of
Ida. They at once cut out the state
ment and sent it to Mayor Grant. of
New York city. with proposition that
il there were six women i'll the great
metropolis who wanted to get married
in good faith that there were six men in
the town or Ida who were ready to
marry them. Mayor Grant, although
not running matrimonial bureau. gave
the letter to the public press, and it was
soon heralded all ever the country. 1t
caused a great deal of talk and finally
disappeared from public attention.
vain. Letters began to drop in
upon the Ida bachelors like snow
fakes. Correspondence was be-

already made. A man who was in from
! that town the other day said one of the
bachelors had made a selection and
sent transportation to the woman to

| ton not to send the money or ticket
| which could be transferred, so that he
will get his woman or not be out of

she might be too heightened for him. He

DIPLOMAT AND SENATOR.
Unprotected Coast Cities Would
Be in Danger of Attack.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-A prominent
member of the diplomatic corps said to-
day: "Should there be hostilities, and
| do not easily see how that can now be
avoided, you need not look for any great
naval engagement in CHILEAN waters.
Your enemy seeks loud-Sounding glory,
and he would send one or two of his
best ships to your Pacific coast. No
one would know whittier they had gone
until they appeared IN San Diego or
San Francisco harbor. and then there
would be trouble. You do not think
men who are not ignorant could be so
foolish, but you do not know these
Chilians. Their bravado is something
wonderful; insane, | grant you, but
nevertheless wonderful. Such a con-
fict could have but one reSult-Chilian
arrogance would be laid in the dust /;
but these hotheadS would have caused
infinite damage 10 some of your coast
cities, for you have no Notifications
worthy the name. You have many fine
war ships, though, aud to US who know
those who desire to be your antagonists
it would not be surprising if naval
engagement in one of your California
harbors were to take place within sixty
days"
Senator Cullom, speaking of the Chill
ian affair, said: The situation looks
very ugly. Those little chaps down
there are very sassy and | think we
shall be obliged to give them q lesson.
If they do not change their tactics at
once the Only thing for US is to send our
war ships down there and give them
