Reed Relois is hard to please indeed He tried to commit suicide because his sweetheart would not marry him. Friends labored with him and brought him back to life. Then, in order to keep him from doing it over again, his girl said sho would wed him and did so without de. lay. But before tho honeymoon was over the un3rateful fellow told friend that matrimony twas not what it was cracked up to be" and took dose of poison on that account. Once more he was pumped out and set upon his feet What he will next try to kill himself for is uncertain. His last reason was most frivolous one. Suppose everybody who discovers that matrimony is mot what it is cracked up to be" should commit suicide?

Some technical pur!sts are calling the turn on people who say "tAo United States is q nation" alleging that it is bad Sra;nmar, and that we should say "thc United States are nation" Well, we won't do it. The United States is one country-oHo anl indissoluble-and it is altogether proper to use the singu- l:r verb after tho nominative United States" Yon can think of 1t as a col lectivc roan, if you wish. and case your grammatical conscience in that way, but the United States is our country. These purists would like to have us say those molasscs" probably.

GOycrnnlcnt Land Sill Left.

Why do people starve in cities, asks q correspondent of the New York Sun, when within easy reach by rail ia both Arkansas and Missouri are yet thousands of acres of government land to be had for the settling on them? They are not the richest lands, the correspondent ad- mits. yet they arc rich enough to raise milk, butter, vegetables, fruit, chick ems, pigs and corn" Fuel grows upon the land. The climate of the hill lands of Arkansas, where these government lands are, is one of the most hcalthful in the world The correspondent tells us also that if settlers do not wish to take up the wild lands and subdue them there is still left between Springfield. Mo-, and St. Louis an abundance of deeded land which can be bot ght at from $2.5o to g the acre.
 Much of the government land i2 with; in 100 miles of St. Louis. AS to the fer tility of the soil, one nay recall whlt the Trench Sardci4crj say-that the farmer makes his own soil, and that they colld raise rich crop upon a city pavement in short time. At Harrison, Ark, is government land office where entries can be made.
 Colonies might be formed from the re. srcctable laboring classes of cities and the unemployed everywhere who would welcome this opportunity for homes and independence. If our American poor had somebody who would do for them what Baron Hirsch's managers are do ing for the Russian Hebrew immigrants in New Jersey, many such colonies would soon Do aourishiag, and tho pie thora of unemployed workingmen would be relieved

There is ono point that ought to wcigl

There is ono point that ought to weigh very seriously in all considerations of anncxing or not annexing Hawaii. That is, that if these islands should pass into the hands of any other nation, as they certainly will do if the provisional gov Crnmcnt now established there loo3cns its grip, then tho United States would havo no naval or coaling station at all in that part of the Pacific over which the great lines of traffic pass.

Schools of Eorcs.y In Europe.

In nothing can tho old world teach the new Joorc cfrcc lively than in the care of forests. Before it was too late Europe learned that if her woods were all cut away the rivers and streams would dry up and the earth would become barren waste unfit to raise even saSebrush. So in time tho governments took action. In Italy the laws arc so strict that man cannot cut down tree upon his own farm without permission from tho gov ernment inspector.
 Forestry laws of some kind we must come to in America. We must in par ticular save untouched the wooded heights around the sources of streams. Certainly, too, in time wo shall have something which resembles the schools of forestry in Europe. It is . matter for either tho state governments, the United States government, or both, to take in hand.
 Austria Hungary has well perfected system of forest preservation and of training in tho science of forestry Thanks to these, go per cent of her area is still in woodland, though this region has been settled since tho beginning of modern history, Forest supervision. in the empire is nnder control of the min, ister of agriculture. A whole army of forestcrs, professors, guards and in spectors is under him. They must be regularly trained for their places, and when once they arc admitted to the serv- ice promotions follow as in the army.

GOLD IN COLORADO.
Probability of the State Becoming a
Great Producer.

Great things are predicted for Colo
RADIO as gold producing state by Capt
d. j. Hutchinson, who knows something
about mining. "It requires" says Mr.
Hutchinson, "a better class of miners to
mine gold, as they have to be more care
full in handling the ore. There are
great many inquiries for gold, properties
now and mining men are going back to
old prospects, opening up properties that
have not been worked for years. They
have struck gold in the Amethyst at
Creede and it is doing as well as it ever
did. They have pay roll of over $780,
900 month on the Clear Creek. Every
man has his little pan making from So to
IS a day, and this winter they are going
to prepare for systematic placer work
from the forks clear up to Georgetown.
"The San Juan country will also have
gold boom. With Otto Mears' railroad
they can mine there now SO per cent
cheaper that they could six or seven years
ago, and there will bea great develop
ment in gold properties. The output Of
Colorado gold for this year in my opinion
will be nearly double what it was last
year, and it will be 300 per cent higher in
1894. Denver Times.

A DAFT" SUGGESTION AS TO STATEHOOD

The compromise that is being proposed
on the territorial admission question is
entitled to some consideration. This
proposition is to annex Utah to Nevada
and to unite Arizona to New Mexico, and
to admit them as one state. Under this
arrangement Nevada would have about
100000 instead of 10000 as now, and the
Now Mexico Arizona combination would
have 100000. If these territories are to
be admitted to statehood in the next ten
years they will have to come in under
some such conditions as the these
Globe-D Democrat.
The above suggestion as to a combi-
nation of Nevada and Utah concerns US
not. The people up there can do as they
see fit. But as far as the New MEXICAN
is concerned, the Globe-Democrat's sug.
gestlon strikes no responsive chord either
in New Mexico or Arizona. The people
of New Mexico want statehood and are
entitled to it, by every consideration of
justice and fairness. They want it for
the present political boundaries of this
territory, and that or nothing.
Since the Globe-Dem ocrat has gone
daft on the silver question, it goes daft
quite frequently on other matters of
public concern also; and even on rhetoric
rs shown by the above clipping.

Of IMPORTANCE TO the WEST,

The United States supreme court meets
next Monday in the city of Washington
and at that term some, to the people of
the west, very important cases will come
up.
Among these are the appeals by All
Sing and four other Chinese from the
Judgment of the United States court for
the northern district of California, which
again will bring up for review the Geary
anti-Chinese law, the Ross decision that n
private citizen can institute proceedings
for the deportation of Chinaman being
in issue.
The Mormon church case also will be
argued. 1t involves question as to the
disposition to be made of 100000 es-
cheated funds of the Mormon church. The
church won below, it being held lawful for
1t to apply the fund to poor and distressed
Mormons and to the aid of struggling
Mormon churches.
Three railroad cases will attract gen.
eral attention. One of them is the appeal
OF Lennon, the Lake Shore railroad en-
gineer who refused to haul his train be-
cause 1t contained some cars from the
Ann Arbor railroad, upon which strike
was in progress, and was fined and i'm.
prisoned by Judge Kicks for contempt of
court.
The other two present questions as to
how far the states may 60 in the matter
OF assessing railroad property and fixing
freight rates. The Pennsylvania and
big Four" lines appeal, Indiana suits, at
lacking the constitutionality of q tax law
that was passed by the Indiana legisla-
'ure, under the operations of which, the
abroad companies claim, an undue as
essment of corporate property was per-
nltted. The other comes from Texas, and
an appeal by the state board of railroad
commissioners from Judge McCormick's
lecision that certain schedule of freipht
ates promulgated by ex-senator Reagan
nd his associates on the board is confs-
atory in its application.

"A Kick in Disguise

Some of the ardent Democrats are COM
planning because the United States mar
shal has seen fit to employ Ysidro Sando-
val and Epitacio Lobato bailiffs for the
United States court. OF course both of
these men are uncompromising Republi-
cans who voted for and supported the en-
tire Republican ticket last fall. One
thing is certain, however, that nobody is
responsible for deputies under the United
States marshal but L. L. Hall, and he
surely has right to appoint whom he

disappointed may have an inclination to
do as they please as to the support of
candidates to office in New Mexlco.--Al-

ENEMIES OF THE SOUTH"
The ScOundreis who Are Burning
the Mississippi Cotton Gins.

All the thousands of cotton gins in
the state of Mississippi have been closed
because the White Caps threaten to burn
every one of them which gins any cotton
before its price reaches 10 cents pound
They began to carry out the threat fort
night ago, and have burned SO many gins
that the owners of the others are fright
ened.
These White Caps are mad caps. Thew
are fools and criminals. They are dis
grace to the state. They will ruin it if
they are allowed to have their way. The
governor ought to see to it that they are
hunted down, arrested, brought to trial
and punished according to law.
There is not any prospect that the
price of cotton will rise to 10 cents
pound at any time in the future. The
White Caps are serving the interests of
the foreign rivals of the cotton planters
in the state of Mississippi. They are
enemies of the south. We can not believe
that their existence will be tolerated any
York Sun.

Already the rigors of early winter are
upon the east, and existence for the next
SIX months will be made up of shivers,

for the rich, and suffering, even unto
death, for the poor. No matter how

money man possesses, he can not shut

home may be palace, but outdoors will
laugh at his silken garments, his furs, his
soft woods, close carriages and foot

piped registers, fecked with diamonds, if
has fancy takes to that form of extrava-
gance; he can have old-fashioned cavern
Gus fire. places that will burn up a cord of
wood a day, and have coal and every
other appliance that the ingenious brain
of man has evolved and money can buy;
but outside his-or her-nose will get
blue, and mayhap frozen, fingers cold and
the whole internal machinery stiffened
with wind full of icicles and malicious
ness. And out here in New Mexico the
autumn rains are over, the air is soft,
balmy and resinous, and every mote dane
ing in the sunshine seems the incarnation
of buoyant health. Farmers are watching
the green grass springing up in the broad
vegas and hauling ton upon ton of rich
gramma from the pennant studded plains
The granarics of the people are fat with
corn, ricks are grooming with their gold
en- loads, and the wheels of the mills are
whirling night and day as they grind to
flour the harvested wheat. New Mexico is
entering upon six months of perfect
weather. How the folks "back in the
states" are to be pitied!-Albuquerque
