GAS STOVES

Are invaluable and should be investi-
gated by careful housekeepers
About /, 200 are in use in this city and
the number would be greatly increased if
their merits were fully understood
As Cookers they are unrivalled and
are far superior to coal or wood stoves in
cooking meats or vegetables
As Water Heaters and "Ironers"
they are most useful, especially when the
weather is too warm to use the ordinary
stove or range
As a heating apparatus that can be
moved from room TO room in few min
utes by the housekeeper they are most
convenient.
AS assistant heaters in rooms where
furnaces or steam heat will not ascend
ON the windward side they have given
great satisfaction.
As permanent heaters in rooms that
cannot be reached by heating fues they
have given much comfort.
As intermittent heaters, where heat is
wanted only an hour or two at a time,
they are economical
For Offices and stores, when the weather
is rather warm for furnace fires, they
may prevent sickness.
For spring and autumn use, when mild
days make furnace fires oppressive, trou-
blesome and expensive, they are comfort
able and economical
As fires that can be started in a min
ute and extinguished in less time, they
are most satisfactory.
As heaters that avoid ASHES COAL
GAS and DUST they are valued by pru-
dent housekeepers.
Modern Gas Stoves are not only useful,
but are ornamental
The gas, the stoves, the fixtures and
the putting in are Inexpensive
Samples and descriptions can be seen
at the Gas Office.

SPRINGER FREE WOOL BILLS

The Springer free wool bill has passed
the Democratic house OF representatives.
by very large vote were the bill to be-
come law, the sheep raisers and wool
growers Of Nav Mexico, instead Of re-
ceiving from Is to IS cents per pound for
the wool raised in this territory, would re-
ceive about 3 cents per pound, That is
practical politics easily understood by the
people Of New Mexico; a Republican SEN
ate and Republican president will pre-
vent the bill from becoming law. The
people Of New Mexico, in order to protect
one 81 their leading industries and one
that gives employment to a large portion
OF their population, should naturally and
strongly support the Republican party,
the party that protects their interests as
against the interests OF the people and
manufacturers of foreign countries.

SILVER ONCE MORE.

Once more the crank has taken turn
and the Boston merchants exchange has
been heard from on the silver question,
all OF which goes to show flat the qIes,
ton is an important one as viewed from
any standpoint and will bob up. Boston
merchants have passed unanimously a
resolution eudori ing Congressman od ,e's
effort tn repeal the present silver Law
and suspend the further purchase OF bnl-
lion until an International treaty shall be
ratified whereby foreign powers will stimuli
taneously with the United States reopen
their minis for the free coinage OF silver"
. This is n rather important demand, COM
ing as it does from Boston. There is no
| likelihood that the Lodge bill will pass
until after such date as some such inter
national agreement has been provided,
but at the same time this demand from
Boston shows how thoroughly the silve,
question is engaging the attention of The
public both cast and west.

at the present session do anything toward
this important matter.

Of Republicans throughout New Mexico.
