MINING PROFITABLE,

Sixty-five companies engaged in the mining of precious and superior metals paid dividends in 1890, aggregating SIS, T33,47 This represents only q very small proportion of the money re- turned in dividends to mine owners, and about twentieth part of the value of metals produced, The copper mines, alone, of the United States, produced copper to the value of about $40, ,000, : 900.
 There is no need for any special ar- gument to prove that mining pays to an equal degree with any other indus try, and that 1t Is not far more profit able is due to the fact that the field is so extensive and varied, and the num- Der of men possessed of the requisite knowledge and experience to direct mining operations is wholly inadequate. It is unnecessary to speak of the many enterprises within our own observation, which have failed through mismanage- ment, and a misconeeptlon of mining and unreasonable expectation of results upon the part of nonresident owners. The West has always suffered from these causes and will continue to, al- though, let us hope, in continually
  lessening degree, as knowledge of the business of mining is more widely des- siminated, improved methods are adopt ed, and the idea that mining Is a spec ulation abandoned.
 To the eyes of the Eastern stock holder glamour surrounds mining ir- vestments which, to be considered sue cessful, must give immediate returns, far larger than are derived from other pursuits in which, perhaps, two or three times rhe amount of capital is iI- vested. Six or eight per cent is con sidered very good interest on money invested in the Eastern or Middle States, whereas mining enterprises are expect ed to pay twenty-five, fifty or one hun dred per cent. This, certainly, is un- reasonable.
 An important fact generally lost sight of when comparing the financial results of mining with those of other in. dustries is the amount of money dis bursed to employees, and the degree of prosperity enjoyed by the community in which the industry is located It is an undisputed fact that laborers in the mines, mills and smelters in the West are better paid than in any other in- dustry carried on in the United States. While employees in the factories and Boundaries of the East are toiling for from seventy-five cents to dollar and a half per day, the miner Is earning three to four dollars per day, and the greater thrift of the laboring class in mining regions of the West is observa- ble in the prQverbial generosity of the people (which oftimes runs to prodi- gality) and the almost total absence of poverty and want.
 Mining offers to capital a safe and sure investment, when intelligently conducted, and nowhere are the oppor- tunities more plentiful or promising than in Arizona.

'Tis trite saying, 'Tis education forms the common mind; Just as the twig is bent the trees inclined" and with view to having crop of symet- rica trees, the total of S1, ,S42, TO was appropriated last year for the educa- ton of Indian children, and now it is suggested that the appropriation for that purpose, in order to accommodate 10000 additional children, should he increased. The result of training the Indian twig in an upright position, so far as the West is informed, has been signal failure. The result of school bred youths is that as soon as they are returned to their homes they at once become blanketed and breach -clouted Indians, steal and kill with greater relish by reason of their semi-advanced civilization. The latest that We have to record concerning the twigs is that teaching them to write enables them to commit forgery, and as an evidence of that fact two Apaches, Modoc Wind and Seward Mott, are now held in Tue son to answer to grand jury for the commission of forgery upon Wells, Fargo & Co s bank in San Francisco.

In the publication of the Journal of the Assembly decided improvement could be made by prefacing it with a tabular statement giving the number of the bill, it's title and object, the house in which it originated, and might be added, its final disposition. This would obviate much time and labor as well as profanity in searching the records, and give some value to hitherto useless publication.

Buyers may be able to do better IN
prices in California, but consumers pre-
fer the New Mexico grapes at increased
prices. The grapes raised in New Mex
leo are in flavor and taste far superior to
the California grapes; the market for our
grapes is constantly on the increase.
The New Mexico grapes reach this
market clean, bright, fresh and sweet
and of course command higher price
than the California grapes, that have to
travel 900 miles further and over extern

Provided further, that it shall be I'M

any evidence of Indebtedness or require
any service from any juror or witness
when there are no funds appropriated
for such purpose" This proviso means,
that whenever the fund appropriated for
any county for the compensation of ju-
rors or witnesses has been exhausted,
that jurors and witnesses must be dis
charged, and that no service can be re-
quired of them, unless the funds are on
hand wherewith to pay them. When

THE NEW APPORTIONMENT.

In accordance with sections 1920 and
1921, Compiled Laws of New Mexico,
Governor Prince on yesterday made an
apportionment of the territory for legis'
lative purposes under the eleventh CEN
sus. We publish the apportionment and
the governors memorandum in another
column.
An examination Of the apportonment,
as made, discloses the fact that for men,
bers of the upper house the ratio of rep
resentation is nearly the same as at
present. Sierra county is added to So
zorro county, and Grant and Dona Ana
counties will have one member Of the
council, making slight gain for these
two latter counties and corresponding
slight loss for Socorro county.
For members of the house the present
ratio is also nearly observed, however, the
county of Valencia looses one member
and the counties of Dona Ana and Grant
gain one member. Taos county looses
slightly and Socorro county does the
same. A careful study Of the population
figures, as returned by the census bureau
and the geographical location Of the coun-
ties, will disclose the fact that the ap-
portionment is one as fair and equitable
as could possibly be made. The gov
ernor has given the matter much time,
great care and thorough study, and has
made an apportionment that is as nearly
perfect and will be found as nearly salts
factory, as it is possible for any Legislative
apportionment to be.

NEW MEXICO AND CALIFORNIA PRICES FOR
GRAPES.

Recently published statistics in regard
to viticulture show that great progress in
grape growing has Of late been made in
New Mexico. California is the leading
grape and wine state in the union, and
New Mexico's product is very small in
comparison with that of California. But
both the soil and the climate of New
Mexico are favorable for the production
of grapes, and there is excellent reason
to believe that in the course Of few years
that territory will move up to place
close to that occupied by California. The
Mesilla valley is one of the favored locali-
ties; and the Pecos valley, which only
a short time ago was brought under
irrigation, will soon become center
of vitlculture. But the price of wine and
