SANTA FE'S GUESTS.

Santa Fe must put her best foot for
ward in entertaining the delegates to the
4th national irrigation congress, who
honor the city with their presence to-
morrow.
They are men of widespread influence
and they should be given an opportunity to
carry away with them the best possible
impression of the Santa Fe valley and the
resourceful nature of its environments.
First impressions are never good in this
country;it is SO in all so-called arid re-
gions. The country is far better than it
looks. The stranger can have but very
imperfect conception of the productive
ness of the soil until he is given ocular
proof OF it's value. This the Santa Fe
valley can certainly do. A visit to the
farms, gardens and orchards should be
planned for these visitors. Here they

ACCORDING to Chauncey M. Depew, who
is just back from Europe, the excitement
in South Africa's gold mines equals the
widest speculations in Colorado or Cali
fornia booming times. Both London
and Paris are crazy. One of the best in
formed bankers in Europe told him that
100 men had pocketed IN cold cash in the
past year $5,OOo,0OO,oOO by the sale of
stock or shares of these companies. The
money has come from tho confding
British and the usually cautious French.
Forty million dollars were won by man
who entered the Cape as juggler in a
circus and is now climbing rapidly the
social ladder. The stocks are constantly
rising in price, and of course capitaliza-
ton, and at no distant day the bubble
will burst, scattering ruin more widely
than has been experienced for genera
ton.

Opening of Una de Cato Grant.

The opening of the Una de Cato grant,
of which 100000 acres lie in Colfax coun-
ty, will be OF great benefit to us in many
ways. Those seeking homes in our pros
porous territory will avail themselves Of
this chance to secure cheap tract of
land, we'll watered for agricultural or
grazing purposes. It will throw more
trade into our towns, make more taxable
property within our borders, and be of
benefit to US in numerous ways, as we'll rs
a public domain for the homeseeker to
choose home from under the United
States laws governing homesteaders.-

Rather Extraordinary.

The Congressional Directory of the latest
issue contains an interesting statement. In
the biography of Senator Quay, of Penn
sylvania, written by himself for that pub
location, are the following words: "Was a
delegate to the Republican national con
vention in 1899, and voted against the re-
nomination of Benjamin Harrison" The
placing on record in government publ
cation of his vote against that nomina-
ton was in itself peculiar circumstance,
and it now serves as note Of warning to
Gen. Harrison to look out for Mr.. Quay
