ON AN OLD WOMAN SINGING.

Sweet are the songs that have heard
From green boughs and the building bird:
From children bubbling DER with tune
While sleep still held me half In swoon;
And surly bees hummed everywhere
Tbeir drowsy bass along the air;
From hunters aud the hunting horn
before the day star woke the morn;
From boatmen in ambrosial dusk.
Where, richer than a puff of musk,
The blossom breath they drifted through
Eell ont of branches drenched with dew.
And sweet tho strains that come to me
when in great memories see
An that full throated quiring throng
20 streaming on the winds Of song;
Her who afar in upper sky
Bounded the wild Valkyrie's cry,
with golden clash Of shield and spear,
singing for only gods to hear;
And her who on the trumpels blare
Sang "Angels Ever Bright and Fair"
Her voice, her presence, where she stood,
Already part Of angelhood.
But never have heard in song
|gweetness and sorrow SO prolong
Their being-as hushed music rings
Along vibrating silver strings
Az when, with all her eighty years,
with all her fires long quenched in tears,
A little woman, with look
Like some flower folded in a book,
Lifted thin and piping tone,
And like the sparrow made her moan,
Forgetful that another heard,
And sang till all her soul was stirred.
And listening, oh, what Joy and grief
Trembled there like a trembling leafl
The strain where first love thrilled the bars
Beneath the priesthood of the stars;
|The murmur Of soft lullabys
Above dear, unconsenting eyes;
The hymns where once her pure soul trod
The heights above the hills Of Cod
All on the quavering note awoke,
And In q silent passion broke,
And made that tender tune and word
The sweetest song ever heard.

Cleveland as candidates would reduce the
disturbance to business to the lowest pos
sible amount, in fact, practically prevent
any serious disturbance whatever"
The idea of joining the canvass OF that
rip-roaring free trader, Grover Cleveland,
with the hope of business repose is to
show the infinite variety OF Mugwump
unacy. 1t is also an unmistakable flag
of distress.
The aforesaid Mugwump business candi-
date against Benjamin Harrison is the
gentleman who lately engaged in per-
sonal campaign in Rhode Island with this
mosaic rhapsody to the virtue Of his own
hobby:
"The Ten Commandments are thou
sands of years old, but they and the doc
trine of tariff reform will be taught and
preached until mankind and the Repub.
lcan party shall heed the INDUCTION, Thou
shalt not steal
The principle against which this sane
timonious iguoramous smote with the
maxim, Thou shalt not steal" was firm.
y and clearly proclaimed in the platform
on which he was carried into the White
house. He gave his unreserved approval
not only to the house but to the platform.

THERE CAN BE But ONE VERDICT.

In day or two more We shall have an
opportunity to make some comparison of
the two national platforms At the pres
ent time the people OF the west have a
very general understanding OF just where
the Republican party can be found when
it comes to the interests Of the producer
the wool grower, the silver and lead
miner, the fruit grower, the farmer and
the western home seeker in search of a
home in the arid regions. We know also
where the Republican party stands on the
subject of protection for the American
laborer, wage workers and the manufac-
turer, and how it has successfully
labored not only to protect home interests
but to extend our trade territory by a
we'll balanced policy Of reciprocity. Bear
ing these things in mind, the platform
which the Democratic party will launch
at Chicago ought to make mighty
interesting reading in particular for
the average western man. The Re-
publicans challenge an honest comparl-
son, having no fears of the verdict to
follow Vat the hands of an intelligent
people.

NO TIME TO BE LOST.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat is bit,
terly opposed to the admission Of New
Mexico as state the opposition Of this
journal is based upon wrong premises
and upon good deal of msinformation
and assumption Of the existence Of con-
dition out in this territory, that does not
exist IN fact. However, it will be pre-.
sumably simply effort and time lost to
fight the Globe Democrat and other pa.
pers east on this question; there is but
one thing to do and that is to make q
strong, united and energetic effort to
push the bill for an enabling act through
congress this present year.
1t must be acknowledged that the defeat
Of the excellent, liberal and fair constitu.
ton, submitted to the people three years
ago, is being brought up against the ter
rltory and that justly; it must be born in
mind, that the White Cap outrages, White
Cap doings and corruption and lawess-
ness brought about by the Democratic
White Cap combination, that has existed
in certain portions of New Mexico, have
been fully communicated to the SEN
ate committee on territories and are
strong points against admission.
But the New MEXICAN Believes and
hopes, that with united effort these can
be overcome and the passage Of the enab
ling act secured. Therefore, get together
and work together; now is the time, and
certainly no time should be lost.

SOME BIG RESERVOIRS.

Some colossal water storage enterprises
have been completed in the west during
the past year. The promotion of horti,
culture and agriculture By means of irriga
ton canals supplied with water from
great reservoirs is now no longer an ex-
pertinent. Well managed, as such under.
takings must be, from the very ground
plans, in order to attract the attention OF
capital, every enterprise of the kind has
proved remarkably profitable. The sub
iect is not a complicated one; it is readily
understood by the average man, just as
the early Aztec was capable of COM
pretending the advantage of crooked
ditch over straight one. A simple
mathematical calculation shows at a glance
the utility and profits of storing water in
natural depressions for making the adj
jacent valley land blossom and become
productive. The following are the dimen-
sions of four of the largest enterprises Of
this kind that have been completed dur.
ing the past year: /. The Walnut Grove
dam near Prescott, A. T., ITO feet high,
inclosing $50 acres, with a capacity of
100000 900 gallons. 2. The MERGED
dam, central California, one mile long, 60
feet high, $50 acres, capacity &, 900, 100000
gallons. 8. Sweet-water river dam, near
San Diego, Cal, 80 feet high, 725 acres,
capacity 6,OOO,OOO,OOO gallons. 4. The
Bear valley dam, in San Bernardino
county, CAL, is 60 feet high, enclosing
$3.50 acres, and will hold 100000, 900
gallons OF water.

A Lesson In History,

The Mugwump organs are vociferously
proclaimlng that the nomination of Presi.
dent Harrison makes Grover Cleveland
the inevitable choice of the Chicago con-
vention. A good many OF the straightout
Democratic newspapers are apparently oil
the same opinion.
The arguments with which the admir-.
ers of the chronic candidate urge his
availability as the antagonist of the presi
dent contain many gorgeous flowers oil
rhetoric, but Woefully scanty array Of
facts.
For instance, the free trade shouters
appear to have forgotten that, whereas in
1884 Grover Cleveland defeated James G
Blaine in the "pivotal state" of New York
by ,047 votes, in 1883 Benjamin Harri-
son defeated Grover Cleveland in the
same state by 1873 votes.
Another fact that seems to have slipped
their memory is that Indiana, which
Cleveland carried against Blaine by 6,512
votes, was carried by Harrison against
Cleveland by 2,34S votes.
There are many other facts which pos
sess the same significance. We will men
ton only these three. a
III MassaCuuSettS tne plurality against
Cleveland in 1854 was "a 1872. In 1888 the
plurality for Harrison and against Cleve-
land was 32,037.
In 1884 West Virginia's plurality for
Cleveland was 4,2l1. In 1888 it was only
552. In 1888 Connecticut's plurality for
Cleveland was 1884. In 1883 it was
1856.
Cleveland and free trade are excellent
vote makers-for the Republican party.
Yet the poor old Democracy is saddled
with both and apparently neither can be
unseated.
This is Republican country and Re-
publican year. The Press believes that
the Democratic candidate, whoever he is,
will be decisively beaten. Appearances
indicate that the candidate will be the
apostle OF platitudes and British free
trade. The suggestive facts we have
given show the comparative strength of
Benjamin Harrison and Grover Cleve-
land with the people Of the United States.
