Turquoise Mining In Now MEXICO.


SANTA ~, Jan. aO-Fashion controls tho
market for certain kinda OF jewelry rs 10
does FOR certain textile fabrics. 10 - re-
corded that Montezumu give Cortez four
turquoises that were valued at eco 900 each.
For good many years the turquoise held a
prominent place In the list 81 valuable
stones and mp 10 20 years ago was highly
appreciated when wrought into pieces ~
jewelry. Then the public preference shifted
10 the garnet. the amber and the pearl. and
turquoise ornaments were quoted away
down"
Now the beautiful sky blue stone Is com
ing into favor again, and Il Is perhaps n
strange coincidence that just as thedemand
for turquoise Is increasing new and valu-
able deposits OF the stone have been discov-
cred.
Formerly the most valuable turquoise
found in America came from Los Cerrillos,
an old town near Sante Fe. The mines
. there have been worked for more than two
centuries.
Recently new discoveries have been made
In the Burro mountains, ia the southwest
corner Of New Mexico Excavations have
been found that IL is supposed were made
by ancients, for among the debris around
tho excavations pieces Of broken pottery Of
unique pattern were discovered.
The rock exposed by the excavation has a
close network Of turquoise. The layers
form line an eighth OF an inch In thick
ness, frequently starting in a thick layer
and then forking into several fine ones,
which again subdivide. Specimens have
been afforded by this claim having an inch
or more surface area
In mining turquoise the method pursued
by the Indians is very simple. They heat
the rock with very hot fires and then del
uge Il with cold water. The sudden cool
ing Of the rock causes IL 90 crack, and the
turquoise is secured. This IS an exceeding
ly trying ordeal for the turquoise 10 under
go, and il Of course doesn't improve ito
color. ALLAN MAYNE.

IN CALIFORNIA AND NEVADA

In California there is triangu
lar fight in the political arena.
The Populists. We're first in the
field with a full state ticket. Then
the Republicans put their candi-
dates in nomination. The Repub
lican party and its ticket being SO
barefacedlv controlled by Boss
Burns in the interest Of the rail-
road, the Populist party was
sweeping everything before it and
all admitted that it would carry
t re state This being the case, the
Democrats, in order TO defeat the
Populists, held a convention late
in the campaign and nominated
ticket, not with any expectation
to win, but to keep up the party
organization and to prevent, if
possible, an overwhelming victory
for the Peoples party. In Nevada
the contest is between the Silver
party and the Republicans. Here
the Populists and the Democrats
each put a ticket in the field to aid
the Republicans against the Silver
party. In California the Demo
Gratis are fighting the Populists to
the advantage of the Republicans.
In Nevada the Democrats and
Popuiists unite in fighting the
Silver party in aid of the Repub-
licans. This clearly demonstrates
that the twins in California, as
party organizations, are united in
their purpose against the Popu-
lists as they are everywhere where
there's danger of Populist sue
cess. It also demonstrates in this
State that the Populist party, sc
called, has joined in with its enc
mics. the twins. to defeat the Sill
yer party, the only ally Of the
Peoples party of America in this
State. And it demonstrates Iur-
Their that there are more damphool
politicians in Washoe county who
are trying to elect the Republican
State ticket by the organization OF
the Populist party OF the State,
than are contained on the same
number of acres of land in chris

VIOLATING THE LAW.

c. A. LaGrave, candidate for
State Controller on the Silver
ticket, addressed the citizens of
Carson at the meeting Saturday
evening. The APPEAL says he
called attention to the fact that the
present State officials are violat-
ing the law which prohibits the
purchase of supplies for the State
of Nevada in California. He
pledged himself, il e,ected, to
obey the law, and those who know
him do not doubt his word.
1t is d gross injustice to the
farmers and merchants of this
State to have officials who are
drawing salaries which the peo-
pie are taxed to pay, send to Cal
ifornia to purchase supplies fol
the State. Shortly after the pres
ent took Office they re-
furnished the State Capital and
one or more of their number went
TO San Francisco, mt the expense
of The people of course, to purchase
the necessary supplies. Do the
people who pay the salaries and
expenses of these officials approve
of their method Of doing bust
ness? If they DO, Of course they

THE WAY II WAS LOST.

ado, in speech at Greedy before ten
thousand people, tells how the silver
battle was lost at extra session as fell
lows
''You know how the silver bill was
repealed. Was it by Democratic
votes No, there were 81 per ceut
for silver and 40 against it. Every
PopuIist stood unwaverlngly and
fait hfullv for free coinage. In the
ucuse there were 122 Republicans and
in the Senate 40 Republicans
Ninety per cent stood by Cleveland
and 10 per cent by silver. We were
prepared for disappointment, but We
did not believe that it would be posi- =
BILE to win when his own party was
against him. His only hope, as you
well know, rested solely on RepublI-
can support. A year ago the contest
was on. There stood the Western
Senators, all f the Populists and hal
of the Democrats. saying that TIA y
would die in the last dutch. A few
yielded to patronage, others to the

NATIONAL MILITIA.
General Curtis Introduces a Bill OF
Much Importance in the House.
Rn Tne Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, July 31.-The increasing
Importance of the militia for quelling in
ternal disturbances and its potential
strength in case of threatened war
has led General Curtis of New York,
who is an enthusiast upon mill
tary matters, to embody his plans
for a national militia organization
i'm a bill. The bill has received the sane
ton of the Honse committee on militia,
and although probably it will not secure a
hearing this session., may be called up next
session.
General Curtis proposes that the militia
shall consist OF every able bodied male
citizen between the ages OF Is and 40, the
organization to be known as the National
Guard of the States, and the ~unorganized
as tho reserve militia.
The organization of tho former would
be made 20 conform as closely as possible
to thai of The regular army.
The National Guard, according to the
plan, could be called into action by the
President or by an act of Congress, while
only an act of Congress could call out the
reserve militia, the President having
power to call upon the Governors o.
states for the needed forces Of
the guard in case of invasion OF
danger of invasion from foreign foes
Indian uprisings or rebellion agains,
the authority of the government, specify
ing in his call the period Of service re-
quired, with The limitation Of nine
months. The national guard, or reserv,
militia, when in service would be subject
to the same rules and articles of war al
the regular troops Of the United States
and would be entitled to the same pay anc
allowances.
For the maintenance Of the militia or
ganv lions the plan contemplates an an
nual appropriation of 100000 to be APP
| portioned among the states and terri
| tories and to be disbursed for arms, ord.
