STORMY TIMES IN STORE.

In less than thirty days Grover Cleve-
land will succeed Gen. Harrison as
president. His second term will be very
different from his first. In the past four
years very many knotty questions have
arisen to demand treatment by Presi-
dent Harrison and how ably he has dealt
with them the country we'll knows. In
deed, Harrisons administration has had
to cope with more intricate problems of
state than has any other since Grants
day, and the prospects now are that these
knotty questions will be continually bob
bing up throughout Mr.. Cleveland's sec
ond term, making it rough indeed as
compared with eight years ago. Conflicts
in his own party will not be the least OF
Mr.. Clevelands woes, but by far the
greater difficulties now in sight will grow
out of the tariff and the financial ques'
tions that will not down. Stormy tin Of
are in store for the incoming president.

SlLVER'S DEPRESSION.

Shelters are closing down all over the
west. Until now the miners have been
the chief sufferers from the long continued
low price of silver and lead brought about
by ill-advised national legislation, but
now the depression has grown so as to
roach both the smelter owner and his en-
ploye. At Leadville four smelters have
been closed down. At Denver, Pueblo,
Socorro and Ell Paso only about one-half
the ordinary force is employed at this
time, heavy reductions in the number and
salary of employees having been made
within the past thirty days. This grows
out of the fact that silver, which costs,
according to the U. s. senate reports,
$l.5O an ounce to mine, is now selling at
about IS cents an ounce. 1t is, however,
the beginning of the end, and means that
congress has simply got to do something
for the rehabilitation of silver as money,
despite the kicks of the gold-bugs, or see
one of the greatest of the vests industries
languish and ole.

pray, why not? They are finding here in
New Mexico very profitable field; they
are being protected by the laws OF this
territory; why should they not contribute
toward the support and maintenance of
the territorial government? They are GER

afford to pay just and fair tax.

The location of two normal schools,
one at Silver City and one at Las Vegas
would be wise and proper move; this
territory can not have too many educa-
tional institutions. Besides, the New
MEXICAN fully believes in the policy OF
scattering territorial institutions, sup
ported by the tax payers, about the terri
tory; this is the best policy to pursue, and
the New MEXICAN is gratihed to see it car
ried out by the present assembly.

A Good and Timely Suggestion.

The Worlds fair managers of Arizona
have contracted with the Phoenix Gazette
for 10000 copies Of a general write-up Of
the entire territory for general distribu-
ton during the great exposition. The
idea is good one and Arizona, through
the liberality of her fair managers, will
get big benefit from that source.-Trini-
dad Chronicle.
There is nothing else so powerful as the
press for all purposes of advertising; and
no other part of the press can do place
or part of the country as much good as
the press of that particular part or place.
The Arizona Worlds fair managers are
wise as well as liberal.-Las Vegas Optic.

there was a single house in the town. A
town site has been laid out, the streets
graded, irrigating bitches cut, trees
planted, and contract let for a railway
station, but no building of any kind has
yet been erected there. A four-page
weekly newspaper has, however, made its
appearance. called the Otis Journal. It is
edited by Mr.. E. P. Seward, young
farmer in the neighborhood, who is
nephew of the late William H. Seward.
The paper is likely to grow into an eight
page daily within few years, and its
editor may yet become as famous as his
honored uncle.-Denver News.

Fornfnst The "NIiIitia."

Some of our exchanges are berating
the Legislature for not passing more
liberal appropriation for the militia of
the territory. We may be accused of a
lack of patriotism and martial pride, but,
candidly, we can not see the philosophy,
or the equity, in expanding for dress
parades and brass buttons the money of
the people that is needed for other things.

The auditor reports, that the deficiency
in the appropriations for the present
fiscal year on an average amounts to about

Protect the sheep Interests.

Representatives of the sheep men have
been actively at work IN Santa Fe the
past week. And the result has been the
introduction of a scab law which if passed,
will do much to improve the character Of
the wool produced in New Mexico and
add largely to the revenue of flockmasters,
by insuring them against loss of sheep by
disease and increase in Their production of
wool. If this needed law is passed it
will be to the credit of the Pecos River
Sheep Breeders association, members of
which drafted the law and sent special
representative to work for its passage

Capital Removal Question.

The capital removal question is again
being agitated at Santa Fe. This journal
believes it voices the sentiment of large
majority of New Mexico's citizens in say
ing that the question should not be
agitated at the present time; that the
measure can not be passed, and any effort
made to secure such result will only re-
suit in antagonisms which will be detri-
mental to the passage of much needed
legislation.-Las Vegas Stock Grower.

Farmers Institutes,

No better scheme could be advocated
for the education of our farmers and
which would prove of more benefit. 1t is
a notorious fact that many of those who
purchased land in this section made dis
NAL failures in their first efforts at tarm-
ing under the irrigation system, tn ,ug h
no fault whatever can be found either in
the soil, water or climatic conditions.
These are all that could be asked for. The
fault lies in the inexperience of the
farmers themselves. This has been clear
ly demonstrated by the abundant success
with which these same men have met
since having gained in part, the necessary
knowledge of successfully raising fruit
and agricultural products. An institution
of the kind suggested by the Stock Grower
would be a medium through which the
farmer and fruit raiser could learn of the
best manner in which these products can
be cultivated and would also be the meaIs
of saving him several months of unprofit-
able labor and large sums of money

For Statehood,


Speaking of the action of the Republic
can senatorial caucus, in favoring the
admission to statehood of the four re-
ma ming, terfito1 & the Denver Republi'
Senator PlaR the chairman OF the com
mittee on territories, is understood to be
opposed to the admission of any of the
proposed states. 1t Is TO be hoped that
he will yield to the views of the people of
the west and consent to let the new states
come in. The house has already passed a
bill for the admission of New Mexico and
another in favor of Arizona. It is prob
able, therefore, if the senate passes the
bill for the admission of these four pro-
posed states, the house will also pass it.
There is prospect, therefore, that all
four will be let in by the present congress.
1t is to be hoped that this will be done.
The Optic thinks that the chances of
New Me1ico's admission by the present
congress, and probably that of the other
territories, is so slim that one might
safely bet billions to buttons against it,
The New MEXICAN has long since exposed
the true state of case, when it predicted
that no states will be admitted till aftel
Democratic territorial officials have been
put in power.-Las Vegas Optic.

came very near terms.

from the biggest house In Providence. Let

"Well," said Browne, "you can ship me

and not a muscle of his face moved.

before he revived.

whether be or Browne was crazy, and
made enquiries at all the stores as to how
many trunks Browne sold.

answer.
