The Eloquent Senator Sounds the
Keynote for Wisconsin Democracy.
Senator Villas was made temporary
chairman and spoke substantially as fol-
lows:
Senator Villas. in his speech, referred to
the difficulties that had been imposed
upon those in charge Of national affairs
during the past eighteen months. and
the still greater strain placed upon the
public at large While they had been
anxiOusly labOring to effect relief the.
air was being rent and public temper
irritated by the false clamor of partisan
adversaries seeking to cover up their
responsibility for their affecting acts. 1t
had happened more than once in the
old days of power and splendor that the
democratic party had suffered temporary
reverses through some fever of irrita-
ton, slxillfully engendered in the ''Off
year" between presidential elections only

succeeding contest The adVerSdrieS of
democracy, in the hope of plucking sim
liar advantage from the hckleness of Do
liticdl fortune, had already cackled over
their prospects, as if the mischief were
already done. and the public interests
were again their prey. Finding the good
sense Of the people not so easily over
turned. the fervOr of their expectancy
had cooled and their ardor abated. Con-
ditiOns had changed within the last half
or "a century; means Tor quick popular
understanding were far superior to those
OF the early days, and people kept pace
with events as never before in history.
1t was to this intelligence and sober
judgment that democracy made its APP
peal.
FOrebOdings Of the present disastrous
conditions were apparent in 1884, when
President Arthur sought the help OF
Hugh Mccullough, soliciting him to take
charge Of the treasury Mr. McCullough
replied that the most he could do was 10
postpone the evil day until after the
close Of the Arthur administration. This
he did and handed over his portfolio 10
his successor with freely confessed re-
lief. Daniel Manning earned the graft
tude Of the whole country and had sac
rihced his life under the burden that he
assumed. Almost from the first hour the
measures he adopted were strengthening
the treasury and reducing expenses, and
the happiest period Of business prosper
ity and development and success IN all
directions marked the closing years OF
the Cleveland administration. This pros
perity had carried over in its good ef-
fects into the succeeding administration
of President Harrison. The latter had

most horrible railroad disaster known IN
this vicinity took place on the Fitchours
road last evening in the Hoosac tunnel,
a short distance east of the central shaft.
The accident was caused by a rear END
collision between east-bound freight
trains. and, as near as can be ascertained,
happened about 1880 o'clock. A freight
train had stopped to repair an engine
which had broken down and at about the
same time a west-bound express train
passed through the tunnel, filling it with
smoke. y second east-bound train was
allowed to enter the tunnel contrary to
the rules of the road and the engineer,
being unable, on account of the dense
smoke left by the passenger train, TO
distinguish the lights from the train
from the lights on the walls of the tulnei,
went into it with a crash.

trains being badly wrecked. The tunnel
was blockaded. Two men were killed

Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1894-01-24

Santa Fe, the CITY of the Holy Faith of
ST. Francis, is situated on the site of an
ancientIndian Pueblo called O-ga- p-ho-ge.
1t is probably the Oldest civilized COM
lnunity in the United States and the most
ancient of American capitals. This Spanish
town was founded in 1905. Authorities
disagree as to whether this city or San Au-
gustin, Fla, we're first founded. Santa
Fe was first visited by American traders
in 1904, and from that time dated a
wonderful era of prosperity. The thrill
ing incidents of the old Santa Fe trail,
starting from Westport, Mo-, gave it a
world wide fame.
THE WORLDS ONLY sANlrARIUM.
Prof. Mark Harrington, chief of the U.
). weather bureau, says: ''Santa Fe is in
the driest habitable part of the United
States. This region is extensive, and
changes in form from season to season,
but Santa Fe is always in it,"
1t is situated in charming nook of the
Santa Fe range, and its climate is domi-
mated by the influence of mountain peaks
that tower nearly $4,000 feet high. To-
gether with this it lies at an altitude of
7,O16 feet, and latitude, about the Seth
degree north, that gives it peculiar adj
vantage as a sanitarium. The elevation
tempcrs the summer heats, which natural
~ should be about that of Memphis,
Tenn, or Bakersfield, Cal, and its south
ern situation reduces the rigors of winter,
As an illustration, during the winter of
1892, the daily public concerts in the
plaza were only stopped three times by
weather, and last winter the omissions did
not exceed half a dozen.
The altitude compels the lungs to work,
and no one in Santa Fe can be accused of
being "too lazy to BREATHE" as a great
physician expressed it. The rare, ozon-
ated air permeates every cell of the lungs,
and thus prevents hemorrhage. Drs.
Symington and Harroun, who have prac-
ticed in Santa Fe for over twenty years,
report that they have only found two
,ases among the native people of con-
sumption.
NORMAL TEMPERATURE.
The U. s. weather observation office
aas been stationed here for twenty years,
md the following statistical data tells
better than words how even and mild is
The climate of Santa Fe. Taking the
summer heat and the winter cold the fol-
lowing tables show most equable and
delightful temperature:
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1894-01-24

There is no other locality, even the
boosted climate of southern France, that
can show such stable and equable
range of heat and cold. The health seek
| err need fear no sudden changes. A little
attention to clothing and he can bid colds
and inhammations defiance. In cases of
death from tubercular disease the New
Mexico rate is only 3 in 1000.
This il the lowest known record, and it
must be remembered that the local con-
tingent of consumptives is daily aug
mented by the immigration of those who
seek respite from that dreaded scourge.
The record of deaths at Santa Fe is
much lower than the territorial average.
In New England the consumptive death
rate is IS out of every 1000 of the COM
munity; in Minnesota it is IA, and
throughout the southern states six per
1000. This city enjoys the spring eli
mate of northern Illinois and Indiana;
the summer climate of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, and the winter
temperature of southern Illinois, Indiana
and Tennessee. This, however, is only as
shown by the thermometer. The dry
tonic air of the mountain altitude fills one
with vivacity and health, and SO strong is
the influence of the ozone and electricity
on the nerves and system that acclimation
is wonderfully rapid. This of itself is
creuse In the chest measure of immi-
grants here of from four to seven inches.
NATURAL ATTRACTIONS.
Besides this Santa Fe lies in most
picturesque valley. 1t is at the entrance
of splendid canon, Astounding in natural
curiosities. 1t is also the gateway of the
Pecos National park, where fsh anl game
abound. Within easy riding or driving
distances there are over forty places of pic
turesque and OF historic interest. Among
| which may be mentioned the old adobe pal
ace, first erected shortly after 1905, from
which the Spanish yiceroys ruled this
great province. The present structure
| iates from about 1716; but it ia full of
interest, rs every room is consecrated by
he memory of thrilling events. In this
building Gen. Lew Wallace wrote his
famous Ben Hur.

but the rest of the structure II of more
modern date. Within convenient dis
tances are the Indian pueblos of Tesuque
and Nambe; in side canon of The Santa
Fe are the delightful Aztec springs, while
about nine miles up the main water
course is Monument rock. The road
thither is one of SURPRISING loveliness.
To the south of town is Aqua Fria, and
the famous turquoise mines pronounced
by Tiffany the finest In the world; and
beyond the Rio Grande are the San Ilde-
fonso Pueblo and the curious cliff dwell
lings.
Other points of interest to the tourists
are: The Historical society's rooms; the
"Garita," the military quarters, chapel
! and cemetery Of Our Lady Of the Rosary;
