score who would gladly sacrifice their
chances OF happiness In the next
world for the possession OF the gleam-
ing baubles. You will find them
that is to say, the well-dressed ones
standing IN the shops OF the fashion
able jewellers lingering and bargain
ing for one or more Of the loose stones.
Outside, Others with pinched faces
and cheap clothes crowd about the
show windows and feast their eyes on
the diamonds displayed behind the
glass. Let one of these drunkards-
for, In their own peculiar way, they
are drunkards-once get possession
OF valuable stone, and you will find
that he will sacrifice almost all Of his
earthly possessions before he will
part with 1t. I've known actors,
athletes and gamblers to positively
suffer for the lack OF food when big
diamond studs adorned their shirt
fronts. The men are as bad IL not
worse than the women In this re-
spect. / know a broken-down actor
of the old school. In his prosperous
days he acquired the diamond habit,
and invested the bulk of his earnings
in diamonds and emeralds. When
the dark days came he was forced to
part with his expensive collection
A year ago all that was left TO him
was one choice solitaire, worth at
lowest estimate close on to 1000.
This had been the pride of his collec-
tion, and he had resolved to hold on
to it, come what would. Ihave seen
times in the last six months when
that man has lived on one cheap
meal a day, but the beautiful stud
still adorns his weather-stained
bosom. Every day he saunters up
Broadway, stopping for twenty min
utes or more before the windows OF
the diamond shops that line the way.
His only amusement is to make a
mental inventory of the stones dis
played and his own. If the result
proves satisfactory, a CLEAN OF tri-
umph kindles in his eye and he moves
on with springy step and a light
heart. II, on the other hand, his
diamond fails to compare favorably
with its rivals he heaves sigh and
shambles off with the air Of thor
oughly broken man. / tell you that
to me there is something very sad
and pathetic in such spectacle.
Although 1 profit by their madness,

Two Very bright Little People.

Two good stories come from Rock
vile, says the Washington Post. The
classic old county seat of Montgomery
County is prolific of bright people,
and the little ones scintillate as well
as their papas and -mammas and un-
cles and aunts. Among the tiny res
idents of the town is demure little
miss just emerged from babyhood.
Recently her devoted mother con-
cluded it was time to begin her re-
ligious instruction and she commenced
telling her the little stories that inn
press themselves so wildly upon ten
der minds, and particularly in
structed her Of the presence of God
everywhere-thath his eye saw every
thing that everybody did; and the
thoughtful way the little one received
the information was very pleasant to
her parent. Shortly afterward the
tot was going out of the house when
the old family dog got up, and, lazily
shaking himself, proceeded to follow
her. Imagine the mothers surprise
and CONSERVATION when she heard
her darling remark with emphasis:
"Doe back, Dash; doe back, thir!
Ith bad enough to have bod follerin'
awoun' after me all e time, much
less you!"
A brother Of the same little one

DO YOU EVER THINK?

II wool, Mexican lead ores and fruit
were admitted free of duty, what would be
the condition Of New Mexico? Our local
free trade theorists would fight such legis
Iaion rs bitterly as they denounce the
Mckinley bill. Fair trade demands that
we should accord to our fellow citizens
engaged in other industries q similar
advantage. This is reciprocity in protec-
ton.
There are but two classes OF COM
modities that should be unprotected, such
as are not produced at home, and such as
have fixed value the world over; for
example, coffee and gold, of the first we
have none, OF the latter an abundance,
but neither facility nor difficulty of pro-
duction can increase or diminish the
money value Of a gain OF gold The
money paid to foreigner for any product
outside of these classes is Improperly
diverted from its duty to the nation. 1t
is lost in the tortuous channels OF foreign
trade and only seeps back to us, il at all,
diminished in value by the long loss OF
its use. Do you ever think Of these facts,

made a practice OF taking from the In

them no value received, and in this way
he has made collections that have brought
him some $4,000. The government, it is
not generally known, long ago positively
prohibited this sort Of thing. No Indian
agent or any employe connected with the
service is allowed to make such collections
for sale, though should such curios by
chance fall into their hands they are re-

LOOKING BRIGHT.

FROM all that can be gathered the ma
tiona campaign is taking on thus early a
right roseate hue for the Republicans.
The logical result of the campaign un-
mistskabIy points to victory. A feature
that will keep up the enthusiasm now
growing daily consists in the state cleo
tons which this month occur in Maine
and Vermont. These will lead the
skirmisil line of the November conflict.
Maine will roll up 10000 to $4,000 for
Henry B. Cleaves, for governor, and
Vermont will return its accustomed Re-
publican figures, while in the former
state Congressman I. b. Reed and three
other Republicans are safe for election
despite the strenuous efforts Of the Demo-
crata to defeat Reed.

CITY AFFAIRS.

The Democratic majority in the city coun.
Gil of Santa Fe RETAINED from attending
the regular council meeting last evening !;
1t was rumored that mandamus would
be served to compel the city council to
call an election to fill the vacancy in the
board, caused by the death of Frank
Chavez. The Democratic gang resorted,
in order TO foil any such proceeding, to
the old scheme of staying away from the
meeting of the city council.
In the meantime important matters in
connection with city affairs, specially the
lighting Of the streets, are not attended to
and the interests of the tax payers and
property owners suffer in order that the
gang may again defy the mandates of the
court and use the tax payers money sim
ply for the purpose Of gal ming votes in
the coming county election.
And that is the same outfit that wants
to be again intrusted with the manage
ment OF county affairs.
