In Line With the New Mexican.

Unless law is passed restricting the
importation of foreign cattle onto the
ranges of New Mexico serious trouble is
likely to ensue. There is much dissatis-
faction among the cattlemen in this Sec
tion on the subject, ana already measures
have been taken by some to keep outside
cattle off of what they consider ranges
belonging to themselves. There is no
question but that the driving in of for
eign cattle is harmful to our resident
cattlemen, as we'll as unjust. The owners
of these foreign herds neither pay taxes
at the place from which they come nor at
the place where they temporarily locate.
They make it convenient to move from
one section to another, and only do SO
near assessment time, so as to avoid pay
ing taxes. Nobody is benefited by their
holding, but on the other hand resident
cattlemen who are forced to pay taxes on
every head they own are greatly injured,
inasmuch as the range is overstocked and
sometimes utterly ruined. If these for
eign herds must come in, at least make
their owners pay taxes.-Eddy Citizen.

WITH the PEOPLE,

Judge Ross, of the United States court
for the southern district Of California,
recently decided that 1900 settlers in
southern California have no title to the
homesteads for which they have paid the
government in full and for which they
hold patents. 1t seems that years ago the
Southern Pacific Railway company
claimed the ownership of these lands. In
1887 Secretary Lamar decided that the rail.
way company's title had lapsed and threw
the lands open to settlers. Whereupon
the lands in question were taken up by
bona fde Settlers and the government
has since received payment therefor.
Secretary Hoke Smith, who at present
ably presides over the interior depart
ment, is not pleased with the decision of
Judge Ross. He holds that it is the plain
duty of the government to defend the
rights of the settlers, as well as its own,
in the premises, and urges that the attor-
ney general be instructed by congress- Gf
necessary to appeal the cases to the su-
preme court in behalf of the settlers
Secretary Smiths suggestion is timely as
we'll as just. 1t can hardly be too highly
commended.

Grand Canon OF colorado River.

On the Santa Fe route, in northern
Arizona, 1889 miles from Kansas City, is
the town of Flagstaff. A tri-weekly stage
line runs from Flagstaff to the Grand
Canon of the Colorado river. More than
a mile in depth, this is the sublimest of
gorges-a Titan of chasms. Twenty
Yosemites might be hidden unseen below,
and Niagara would look scarcely larger
than brook.
Don't fail to visit this first wonder of
the world. You can tread up" about it by
asking G. T. Nicholson, G. p. & T. A., A..
T. & s. F. R. R. Co., Topeka, Kas., to mail
you free copy of an illustrated book
describing this terra incognita. The book
is no common affair; but is entertainingly
written, beautifully illustrated and gem
of the printers art.

HARD TIMES ABROAD.

Times are hard indeed in England,
France and Italy, much harder than in
this country. This Is the word that Sena-
tor Wolcott brings back with him from
Europe. And now it is in order for the
Republican, high protectionist croakers
to make this statement dove-tail in some
manner with their declaration that the
Wilson tariff reform measure Is respon-
siblo for hard times in those countries.
They'll try it, no doubt, and fail. II is sill
yer, gentlemen, and silver's status alone
that is bringing all this misery to trade
and labor throughout the world, and it
will continue just SO long as the leading
nations refuse to 60 into an international
conference and unitedly move to rsha-

SOME employees of combination of
wealthy men have been caught stealing

doing serious injury to the country in

The southwest is getting to the front.
Even Henry Clews, the Wall street market
patriarch, has taken to recognizing it as
part and parcel of the United States, and
he spells it with a big 49," too. Hear
him: "The feeling is very general that
the depression of business has passed its
climax, and the prevailing symptoms
show that, both in the industries and In
trade, the process of recovery has dis
tinctly set in. This turn of the tide is
most conspicuous in the Northwest and
Southwest"

MERE assertion and contradiction
make no friends for any cause. If our
Republican contemporaries believe that
the lead and wool schedules as fixed in
the Wilson bill are going to damage the
people of New Mexico why don't they rack
out their facts and figures. How do they
account for the fact that both lead and
wool, under the operation of the McKin-
ley bill, are worth only about one-half
what they were prior to the fixing of
the Mckinley duties?

The Law Makers Must Take Notice.
With due regard for the rights of the
Texas sheepmen it seems great injus-
tice to the cattlemen of southern New
Mexico that sheep owners from a neigh
boring state, who pay no taxes in this
territory, are allowed to drive their herds
upon and eat off the ranges OF our stock
men. There should be action taken by
the legislature to either make these tramps
pay taxes, or exclude them from the
ranges of the territory.-Las Vegas Live
