"The carriage rolled over several
times before reaching the bottom Of

daU ghters were in the pack seat, and
although the carriage was damaged,
they escaped uninjured, and attribute
their escape to falling on their large

A Good Appetite

Always accompanies good health, and
an absence of appetite is an indication
of something wrong. The loss OF a
rational desire for food is soon follow
ed by lack of strength, for when the
supply of fuel is cut off the fire burns
low. The system gets into low state,
and is liable to severe attacks of disease
The universal testimony given by
those who have used Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla, as to its great merits in restoring
aud sharpening the appetite, in pro
noting healthy action OF the digestive
organs, and as a purifier of the blood
constitutes the strongest recommends
tion that can be urged Tor any medi
cine. Those who have never used
Hoods Sarsaparllla should surely do SC

My School.

Published by request,

The Master was teaching there,
But my eyes were dim with weeping
And my heart oppressed with care.
Instead oflooking upwards
And seeing his face divine,
So full of tender compassion
For weary hearts like mine,
only thought of the burden,
The cross that before me lay,
The clouds that hung thick above me
Darkening the light of day.
And could not learn my lesson
And say "Thy will be done"
And the Master came not near me
AS the leaden hours went on.
At last indespair lifted

And saw the Master watching
With a look ofpitying love.
To the cross before me he pointed,

That I, The Master, am teaching
And permit thee all thy woe.

For one look Of his face divine
Had givcd ME strength to bear it
And say THY will, not mine"
And so learned my lesson
And through the weary years
His helping hand sustained me
And wiped away my tears.

GOOD TIMES COMING.
Idle Mills and Manufactures RGSumiRg
Operations.
The Wages of 100000 Artisans
Have Been Voluntarily Ad-
vanced Since April l.

New YORK June 9.-The last two
months have shown the greatest i'm.
provement in industrials and more
advance OF wages than for many years
heretofore. Good times are coming
again and the trades are booming.
Some weeks ago leading mercantile
agency stated that the wages of
$4,000 industrial employees had been
advanced. A canvass OF seventy.fve
cities east of the Rocky Mountains
shows that the wages of 100000 have
been voluntarily increased since April
l. Results of canvass of Boston and
other leading manufacturing centerS
in Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Vermont and Maine, from Providence
and Bristol, New Haven and Hartford
in New England; from New York
City, Albany, Syracuse, Utica, Roch-
ester, Binghampton, Buffalo, Pittsburg
Allegheny, Philadelphia and other
important Pennsylvania manufactur-
ing centers, as well as from Paterson
and Newark, in New Jersey, and from
Baltimore, covering the heart of the
manufacturing section OF the country,
make the striking showing that more
than eighty important industrial un-
dertakiuga, which had been idle have
started up since April l, giving EN-.
ployment to $4,000 operatives and
workmen. Some of these have al
Ieady enjoyed advances in wages,
voluntarily offered in most instances.
The reports show that at the points
covered no fewer than 100000 indus
trial employees are receiving higher
wages than they were getting two
months ago, an average improvement
of nearly 10 per cent. During the like
period only $1,000 industrial employees
in the region specified had struck for
any reason, and OF this total only q, )
600 for higher wages.
The manufacturing district of next
Importance is that covered by advice

and neighboring cities, which report

ing establishments have started their

since April l, giving employment tc
$1,000 employees. But in the region
covered fully 28,0C0 operatives have
had their wages advanced about IL
per cent. during the period under die
cussiou. The total number striking
there for all causes within sixty days
is given at only 5000 OF whom only
1900 struck for higher wages, singular

A LESSON FROM COLORADO.

Statistics just published as to the min
eral and agricultural output of Colorado
for the year 1894 are full of interest, es-
pecially to the people of this section Of
the west. By these it ia shown that the
gold mined in Colorado aggregates SILL
100000; silver, 26,3O0,O0O ounces; lead,
l3l, 1894, 900 pounds, and copper, S,34S,44l
pounds. In the line of agricultural prod
ucts the output is estimated to be valued
at $500 900, derived in the main from
fruit, alfalfa, potatoes and similar yields
While these figures contain valuable
exhibit of the resources of Colorado, they
are equally important in showing the
orally conceded that in natural resources
this territory is in no respect inferior to
our neighbor to the north and that in
many very important particulars she is
greatly in the lead.
Iu fact the only advantage which Colo
RADIO has over New Mexico is in the great
er opportunity she possesses for the
proper development of her wealth, which
is, in short, her existence as state. On
the other hand the wealth of New Mexico
is of untold quantity and only the expert
ence of development can properly show
what its extent is. The magnitude of our
mining interests are but on the borders
of appreciation with only an intimation
of their extent to proclaim the possibili-
ties fer capital and labor invested in
them. With New Mexico's geographical
latitude the opportunities for working
these mines are in many instances twice
as great as in Colorado; so that with min
eral resources, calculated as equal to
those of Colorado, instead of superior to
them, as all Indications show them to be,
our output with equal capital invested
should be twice as great, in view of the
com parat,ve abseuce of deterring SHOWS
or cold. Then again in the line of agri-
cultural products, it can not be denied
that New Mexico is better equipped for
success with the soil than Colorado.
Products that beneath our sunny skies
terminate, grow and ripen are chilled
into imperfecton by the winter blasts Of
! Colorado. Our fruit natures and delights
| perforce the climate aud soil, while that
of Colorado is necessarily, to large ex-
tent, an artificial growth.
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1895-01-09

Another advantage we possess is the
fact that onr water interests are greatly
superior to those of Colorado. Thou
sands invested here where hundreds of
thousands have been placed north of Us
would produce equal results for the sim
pie reason that nature has dealt more
kindly with us in providing her reser-
voirs and her rain services. These lines
are written in no disparagement of Col
orado, for her people have by dint of
of hard work, erected for themselves a
commonwealth whose foundations ere
the broadcast in the Rocky mountain re-
gion. The results her people have at
tanned are quoted, however, as an object
lesson for New Mexico's encouragement
and emulation. What Colorado has done
New Mexico should do; and with state
hood We believe she will in a manner that
will open the eyes of America.

A MOST suspicious year 1895 promises
to be for all New Mexico, but particularly
felicitous is the outlook for the southern
portion of the territory. The several
projects for water storage reservoirs in
the central and lower Rio Grande region
are gradually assuming that shape that
renders them more than possibilities, and
the assurance of the early commencement
of work on the new railroad between
White Oaks and Ell Paso and Roswell and
the Texas Panhandle makes the south
eastern quarter of the territory a more
than ordinarily inviting field for immi-
grafton and the investment of capital.

The sentiment in legislative circles
seems to be in the line of laws to secure
fairer elections. Among those suggested
is one in favor of the personal appear
ance of voters for registration and an
other putting our elections under a

There is no law which more peratively

required to show the crying necessity for
