their places to women in the spirit OF chiv-
airy there might be some hope but the
reason for the change is that women do
not get as large salaries as men.
II Is question OF money and
as the men give wav the women
fiji their places and the lamentable
fact remains that our teachers are not
chosen for more merit. but for less money.
Women only stay in the school room tenn
pOrariy until marriage gives them n
happy release" lie spoke of the life OF
teachers in other countries aud the man
ner in which they were provided, and in
conclusion said: Looking toward the
future I can see our schools filed with
teachers who will be permanent and who
can work with minds easy as To their
tenure of Office and who will receive fair
compensation as compared with other
professions. Knowing that their PROBES
sIon is most honorable and gives chances
for brilliant future they will help and

ton was adopted

In the afternoon J. r. Starkey, superin-
tendent OF the schools at Martinsville,
read a paper on "Should We Have Free
Text BOoks?" He said text books were
used in theological law, medical and com
mercial schools, and in all departments of
primary. intermediate and high school
work, in the college and university
courses, az we'll as by thousands of
students in homes. but free text books
properly referred to the tree use OF such
books as were required in the free schools
of the state. "As the law provides sys-
tens of free schools" be said. Including
all grades, from the lowest primary to the
highest grade of university work. the ques-
ton is shall free books be furnished to all
these classes? To that. the answer must
be, No. If we are to have free books they
must come in one or two ways. The state
should furnish them for al the children
of the state, or each community or district
should furnish them for its children.
The question is one of policy, and must
be settled by the conditions existing

books nor money with which 10 purchase

what comes to il through the process OF
taxation, and it ought to be an accepted

text books would advance the educational
interests OF the state as he said tine

we're but means by which the teacher
accomplished his purpose. 1.-The books

age OF the school text book law seem to
have etood the test of efficiency. Beyond
a doubt the law has secured cheaper
books and in that particular has accom-
plished its purpose Complaints come
from various sources of the state against
certain books now In use. These COM

and judgment who are beyond the reach

NEW MEXICO MINES.

Facts Wantcd-GOOd Ore from

The Albuquerque Democrat asserts
that rich gold strike has been made in
the Manzano mountains, and the Albu-
querque Times declares the gold which a
new dry washer patented by a Mr..
Schwartz, Of that city, has been able to
save in 'the placer fields east of Berna-
lill' is something startling" Facts,
however, are what the dear people and the
mining fraternity that read newspapers
would no doubt like to have. Particu-
larly is this the case with the so-called
dry washers. If dry washer has been
invented at Albuquerque or anywhere else
that can really be operated without water
it is worth, at conservative estimate
about $10O,O0O,000 to New Mexico. 1t is
therefore incumbent upon the Times, as
all other newspapers in this territory, to
deal in cold facts and figures and not
glittering generallties when speaking oi

There is prospect that large smelte1
will be erected at Deming in the near fu

at as high a figure as it is now, there
would be no difficulty in getting ore
enough to keep large smelter in opera
ton there. The coal and coke would be
supplied by Cerrillos.
STONE FIND.
Louis Osmer the other day brought il
from the Red river country some fine
specimens of alum and building stone
which promises to be of great value. The
stone is variety of lime formation, rather
of milk white tint; and when first quar-
ried can be whitfield with knife into any
shape. On exposure to air for few days
it hardens and takes good polish
