Help XOur Home Papprs

New Mexico has daily and weekly news
papers that will compare favorable with
those in any of the eastern states. And
they would be better if the business men
would give all their advertising and
printing to their home papers. With
this view of the situation it is the es-
sence Of gall for an outside publisher to
come into our territory with the PROPOSE
tion that he will publish an immense
number of copies of monthly paper
for outside circulation and ask the bust
ness men and newspapers to assist him.
What we need is better home papers and
we will have them if our people will
give all their patronage to the local
papers and circulate them in the outside
world. That will build up the territory.

The California Democracy.

"Cuckoos" who pipe and coo for Cleve-
land will be interested in the following
editorial from the great Democratic
organ of the Pacific coast--the San Fran
cisco Examiner:
Mr.. Cleveland understands now how
tho American masses view his insolent at
tempt to play tho role of a dictator who
would mako both congress and the ST.
preme court creatures of his will. Eight
months of Cesarism have done their
work. Congress has been taught that it
is better policy to follow the Democratic
platform than obey the orders of the
gentleman whose egotism closes his eyes
to facts and his ears to advice.
The California Democracy is in a bad
way to enter upon its great state, con-
gressional and legislative campaign. The
Populists have splendid field before
them with the Examiner pouring hot shot
into the corrupt old Democratic machine.

Free Wool and Free Lead.

Free wool and free lead have been prac-
tically agreed upon by the Democratic
members of the ways and means commit
tee of the house. Both of these are death
to New Mexico industries. One destroys
the wool industry, aud the other destroys
the wages of the New Mexico miner, by
bringing him in competition with the
cheap labor of Mexico. OF course there
will be bitter fight in congress against
the adoption of the provision, by the Re-
publicans and some of the Democrats,
but the majority is SO large, they are like
ly to be Adopted Grande Repub-

WHY THE NEW MEXICAN is POPULAR.

THE San Marcial Bee, bright and
newsy paper pays the New MEXICAN the
following compliment:
"The New MEXICAN has correspondent
in Socorro county writing up its "magni-
1icent agricultural, mineral and stock
raising resources The New MEXICAN
has habit of doing this for the different
localities throughout the territory which
may partially account for its being SO
universally popular.
In this connection it might just as well
be stated that in an issue of this journal
at very early date an article descriptive
of Socorro county will appear and the
article will do the county of Socorro
great deal of good.

THE Democratic free traders in the Sc
congress will, in all probability, put WOO
and soft coal on the free list; if they do, @
very large proportion of citizens of New
Mexico will be seriously injured, and
many of them will be completely ruined

any free list business on those articles
Tho New Mexico wool growers, having
no one to fight for them, have nothing to
say; were this commonwealth state and
had it two senators to represent it IN the

its wishes and interests; as it is, New
Mexico has no rights, that any one in con-
gress need respect

They will Come In Time.

To observe the sheep pets coming
into the stores, says the Taos Herald,
and to see them in piles to be freighted
out to the railway; then to recollect
that down at Deming is the canaigre
tannin, made from the root, grown on
the desert! Why would not Taos be an
excellent place to establish a morocco
factory and wool-combing and baling
emporium? Besides, Taos has tannin
at home. These industries are pursued
at the Atlantic coast cities, and are very
remunerative. The Optic would add
that there are actually hundreds of enter
prises which would do well in New Mex
lco, did only the people, having the
requisite practical knowledge, have also
the pecuniary ability. But those things
will como in time More farmers are
what is needed most and first. When we
get them, other things will naturally
follow.--Las Vegas Optic.

The Pecos Irrigation & Improvement
company have transferred their Worlds
fair exhibit to the general Offices of the
Rock Island Railway company in Chica-
go, and will keep it on exhibition there
permanently. This is a capital idea as
the exhibit is bound to cause great
deal of inquiry, and will probably result
in securing many new settlers for this
section. Now let the company send a
good exhibit to the mid-winter exposi-
tion and we shall catch the immigration

SIOUX CITY, Ia, July 19.-It is an
nounced that the changes that had been
expected a long time in the ownership
Of roads built by local capitalists, will
take effect soon. President Hill of the
Great Northern is here 1t is said his
line is to take the management of the
Sioux City and Northern, while the
Illinois Central will take the Pacific
Short Line, running into Nebraska.
The Central will also take the unfin-
ished bridge of the Missouri River
Bridge company and complete it. It is
announced that it will
Extend the Short Limo
to the West in one or two years, prob
ably to Denver. This is the first road
owned by the Central west of the Mis-
souri, river. President Fish of the COM
pany was here few days ago and con-
frmed these statements substantially.
His line will make other important i'm
provements here this year, and will run
its trains into the union depot now be-
ing finished. 1t has been expected for
long time the Great Northern would
take the Sioux City and Northern, but
ii did not want the Pacific Short Line,
and there was delay on account OF ne
gotlations to dispose of that road to the
Central.
