tie girl whose reason il q blank.
Baby Ruth, the pride of so many
households. suffers from one of baby
hoods weirdest maladies. Her brain
will not develop. At this moment the
famous infant is being reared in what
may be termed practical seclusion. as
all visitors to Washington who have
tried to see the child know but too well.
1t is the reason for this reluctance on
the part of the parents to have the child
seen and spoken to which has been oh
scure to many.
Very naturally the very existence of
young Ruth's affection has given rise
to endless speculation and exaggera-
tion on the part of the few who have
been permitted to learn the truth
And, of course, it is through the serv-
ants that the most important particu-
lars have leaked out. Notwithstanding

in New York. Some of the rumors. for

traordinary backward mind was the
trouble. undue pains have been taken to
Stimulate little Ruth's intellect. and all
to no apparent purpose. Mrs. Cleveland
has interested herself in numberless de-
vices for the training of her babe. and
spent hours in endeavOring to teach it
to articulate. All these curatives have
been effectively concealed by the rep
resentation that Mrs. Cleveland is a
kindergarten enthusiast, when in real
ity she is acting under her physicians
instructions in trying to develop rea-
son in her child. But her efforts seem
to be SO discouraging that heroic
measures may have to be resorted to.

A JOB FOR EDITOR HUGHES.

The political harmony in Bernalillo
county that Editor Hughes was Growing
so loudly about a few weeks ago seems
to have gone glimmering. While on n
rece mt visit to his old homo at Bernalillo
a few days ago Republican Boss M. s.
Otero was accosted by local politician
who had long served him with the sug-
gestion that he and the Hon. Pedro
Perea had better get together and adjust
their political differences. This is what
Republican Boss Otero is reported to
have said in reply: "Pedro Perea ran me
out of Bernalillo and I'll never quit until
l run him out of New Mexico" This
looks very much as if it we're to be a
fight to the finish between these two Re-
publican statesmen in Bernalillo county.
Editor Hughes had best uncork his walls
of oil if he would calm the troubled
waters of Republication.

THE WOOL INDUSTRY,

The New MEXICAN insists that the
Democratic party's policy of dealing
with wool is the proper policy; is for the
best interests of the people and the coun-
try at large; that the robber tariff has
brought dire disaster to the wool grow
ers of New Mexico and plunged them into
a sea of financial troubles from which
only tariff reform as advocated by De-
mocracy can extricate them. In word,
the New MEXICAN again asserts, and sta
tistics prove, that the higher the So
called protection rate of taxation on wool
the lower the price the producer receives,
and it believes with Congressman Frank
Hurd, and the Ohio Democratic conven-
ton that cheered him to the echo for say
ing it, that Stree wool is worth more than
all the other provisions of the new tariff

Had Col. Heman not shown such undue
haste in doing the bidding of the old ring
bosses, and had Mr.. Hawkins, of Eddy,
been less precipitate, the result of the
Socorro convention would have been far
different. Either Otero or Ancheta would
have been nominated. The young Re-
publicans of New Mexico; the better ele-
ment of the party; the anti-button gang;
those opposed to legislative manipula-
ton in the interest of criminals; those
favoring statehood and prosperity; those
who have the courage to speak out
against the methods that have blackened
the character of the Republican party in
New Mexico-surely, this class of citizens
have much to resent in this instance.
Both Otero and Ancheta had made gal
liant contests for the prize and common
decency should have suggested the NOM
nation of one or the other of them.
But the old gang had control of the
machine and willed it otherwise,
