The MlSIhEQRMEp EAST.

The amount of misinformation that is
rife in the east respecting New Mexico
would fill an encyclopedia. Almost every
day eastern papers come to our table
containing arguments against the ad-
mission of New Mexico into the Union
on the ground that majority of our
people are opposed to public schools and
unfriendly to the English language. More
false and misleading representations
could hardly be made. No state in the
country has better public school system
than that created by the legislature of
this territory and no people on earth are
more eager to master the English Ian
guage than those of Spanish descent re
siding here. Nearly all of the younge'
generation express themselves with as
much grace and fuency in English as they
do in the musical language of CASTELAR,,
and those who are descending the western
slope of life are deficient in this respect
solely because they we're deprived of cp-
portunities that are now freely presented
in every school district of the territory.
Why does the eastern press 80 obstinately
refuse to do simple justice to the native
people of New Mexico? The conundrum
is too hard. We give it up.

NEW MExICO'S pENITsNTlARY.

The board of penitentiary commission
ers has named a committee to examine
into certain charges preferred against
the present superintendent, E. b. Berg
mann. The personnel of the committee
is sufficient guarantee that oabsolute
Justice will be done to both sides.
Col. Bergmann's friends believe he will
have no difficulty in refuting what few
specifications there are in the bill of in
dictment that are worthy of notice; many
of them are quite too flimsy in their ma
ture to waste much time over.
In this connection it may be said that
supt. Bergman certainly made splen-
did showing for the institution under his
charge at the recent annual meeting of
the board. With such result there must
be good management. From these fig
ures it appears that the total cost for the
past year of carrying on the penitentiary
was s,S65.5O. Against this stands $751;
1918 earnings by the convicts, and per
manent Improvements amounting to $18,-
331.51, making total credit, which it
would not be unfair to allow, of $685.
"a. Thus it appears that the actual cost
of running the institution during the past
year is about $12,s42.26. The cost OF
maintaining the institution for the past
month was 11.27-1O0 cents per man per
day. Tax payers of New Mexico may
we'll express qualification over such a
showing.

The Governors Report.

The Liberal has received copy of
Gov. Thornton's first annual report to
the secretary of the interior. The gov
ernor reports the territory in a fairly
prosperous condition. The greatest In
crease in population has been in the
neighborhood of the great irrigating
bitches in Eddy and San Juan counties
and on the Maxwell grant. He thinks the
land court is doing valuable work in
settling land titles. He reports stagna-
ton in silver mining, but says great in
terest is being exhibited by the miners of
precious stones. He suggests various
changes in the treatment of the Indians.
He urges congress to confirm the act of
the last legislature providing for the for
nation of county courts, but suggests
change in the law SO that the judges be
appointed by the governor instead of the
county commissioners as provided by the
the territorial legislature. - Lordsburg
Liberal.

GIVE IT ENCOURAGEMENT,

New Mexicos first efforts to hold
poultry show ought to have the earnest
encouragement of all good citizens who
are not here particularly for their health,
but who come to stay and make their
homes. The flavor of that turkey that
we had on Christmas doubtless still
fingers with most of US, but how much
more cheerfully would we have planked
down 20 cents pound for it, and how far
more glad would we have been to linger
in its fragrant company had we felt that
it was New Mexico product. We peo-
pie of New Mexico have got to learn to
hang together in such matters of senti-
ment as this just as do the people of
other sections of the Union. We have
got to learn what it really means to send
thousands of dollars annually into Kan
sas, Iowa and Missouri for those staples
of life that can be produced within our
own borders quite as cheaply for the
consumer and far more profitably for
the producer and the people in gen.
eral.
AS we comprehend it, the main object
of the New Mexico Poultry association is
to stimulate this branch of business and
foster and encourage new home in
dustry by appealing to the eye as well as
to the taste and the common sense of our
people. The exhibit opens at Albu,
querque on the 29d inst. Help it along

The Great Problem OF the Future.

The movement which is transforming
the deserts of the arid west into the
garden spots of the world, and enlisting
millions of money and thousands of set
tiers in the development of new empire,
is sustained by something more than the
spirit of commercial enterprise. There
is the spirit of national achievement and
of human advancement inseperable con-
nected with it. 1t rises to the dignity
of a great cause.
The expansion of national wealth and
greatness is largely involved in the
growth of irrigation. The public do
main is mostly arid. 1t contains nearly
100000 acres of land, and its unused
water resources are enormous. Who can
measure the addition to our national
wealth which will come with the reclama-
ton and settlement of this vast domain.
What visions of conquest, of achieve
ment, of added power and glory it brings
to the patriotic mind! 1t is the great
problem of the future, and the time is
almost here when it must claim its
rightful share of attention.--Deming
Headlight.

Our Republican friends in congress are
very much interested in the welfare OF
the country, and will not, oh, no
not they, do anything to retard the
passage of the Wilson bill. The situa
ton in congress at present shows
how insincere they are. Doubtless they
are gloating over every big failure re
ported while they delay action, but it's {
long lane that has no turn. The Demo
cratic tariff reformers will be on the
ground next week, and they'll be there tt

New Mex,co,s pubfic schools.


The Denver Republican we'll says that
the convention of New Mexico teachers
which has assembled in Albuquerque is
notable because of the large attendance,
and also because it indicates a prosper
Gus condition of the public schools of
that territory. The true friends of New
Mexico are taking a deep interest in its
public school work, because the reproach
of illiteracy which has rested against the
people of that territory for long time
will be removed only through the extern
sion of education by the public schools.
There is good public school law at
present, and many Of the more intelligent
of the inhabitants are giving it cordial
support. Through the labor Of the pub
lie school teachers the percentage of ILL
teracy will be reduced in few years
to a very marked degree.-El Paso

What Il southern Man Thinks
of 1t.

Mr.. Wash Crutcher. Of this
county. sends US the following ex-
tract from a letter written him by
a friend in Memphis. Tennessee,
and asks that it be published. as it
expresses his own sentiments full
ly. The writer, Mr.. D. M. Haw-
kins, was born and raised in the
Ashland District, this State:
DEAR WAsH-Your recent pa
per with election news received.
You know / have long wanted to
see Republicans carry Kentucky
for Kentucky's good. The "Solid
South" is broken and it is the
dawn of better days for the South.
The Democratic party has been
tried and been found wanting. 1t
has been cursed with leaders who
were either traitors or imbeciles,
and Cleveland stands almost alone
the only real statesman in the
patty. The overthrow Of Tam.
many and other corrupt rings
show that the conscience of the
people has been aroused, and
while the Republicans are not
much better they are not such un-
mitigated asses as the Democrats
and have not that large capacity
for doing the wrong thing at che
right time as the Democratic party.
Tennessee has elected a Repub-
lican Governor, just because the
people were tired Of the corrup.
ton and thievery of the Demo
cratic party. Bro. Owens had
close Call in your "deestrick" and
l have an idea that he had just as

stay at home for the Repubs will
no doubt give Denny the seat.

A Gander Bone.

Mr.. w. M. Bristow, Of Switzer,
has sent US in a goose bone from
which to make prediction as to
the weather of the coming
winter, but as it is almost entirely
white, with but one. very slight
discoloration upon it, expert goose
bone prophets pronounce it to be
a gander bone. We have been
shown one, however, by Mr.. u.
Keenon. which he says was taken
from a goose, and from the way
we read it we are to have steadily
cold weather all the winter-no
extreme periods. but cold enough
to satisfy anyone. Cold will begin
shortly after the first Of December
and continue until the end of Feb
ruary, with the ground frozen near
ly all the time. Prof. Hicks. how
ever, predicts cold weather and
storms for December. says God
only knows what's going to hap
pen in January, and that billiards
and tropical storms will occur
in February. So there you
are. You take your choice
and you pays your money.
Prof. Hicks, however, furnishes a
diagram with all his predictions,
but we give those Of Prof. G.
Bone straight-from the breast.

Queenstown Police Fail to Drag OF
q Pavonia Passenger.
(By Associated Press.)

QUEENSTOWN, Feb. 12.-While the
steamship Pavonia, Capt. Watt. bound
for Boston. was here on Saturday, she
was boarded by officers who had in
structions to arrest a man in company
with a lady. who had eluded the police
while the steamer was in the Mersey.
The man refused to accompany the
policemen and clasped tightly the iron
fixtures Of the gangway.
Meanwhile the Pavonia was steamlng
slowly seward. with the tender fast
alongside Of her. Eventually the cap
tain OF the tender insisted upon casting
on. and the police were obliged to leave
the Pavonia without their prisoner. amid
the Jeers of the passengers.
