The Same Old Platform.

From the Silver City Enterprise.
Brother Williams has been posing
again, and made a living picture Of
himself by writing a silly letter about
silver to the New York Dispatch.t The
Las Cruces Independent Democrat and
the Santa Fe New Merican come back
at THE Optic and Enterprise and tell
US to draw in our horns on the silver
question. Both Of these papers know
full we'll that Brother Williams is not
the authorized mouthpiece OF the sill
ver republican press Of the
Territory. They also know
that THE OPTIC and Enter.
prise are as true to the silver cause as
they were before the st. Louis conven-
ton. But how about the Albuquerque
Democrat and other papers Of that fix,
who we're on the, gold-bug side but
Topped, to get q stool at the pie coun-
ter, Immediately after the Chicago con-
vention. The OPTIC and Ente,pyise
stand their ground just where they
have stood for years past, for protec-
ton and free silver. Even II we must
wait for an International agreement,
waiting will be a lesser evil than &C.
cepting free coinage with the free trade

THE Clayton Enterprise comes out
this week in an editorial favoring the
adoption by the Territory of the Boil
ton newspaper law, which requires that
a newspaper shall be at least one year
old before il shall be considered a
legitimate paper IN which to insert legal
notices. The proposition is probably
all right, but it looks from this distance,
as il the Enterprise wastes entirely too
much space on its s.hobo. contempor-
aries'' as it calls them, and utterly
fails to give any news OF its neighbor-
hood. Perhaps that accounts for its
lack of patronage.

The London Hospital Journal re-
ports a notable decrease IN consump-
ton in Great Britain. Forty years
ago the mortality from this disease
was 1884 to 1000. 900 inhabitants. In
1890 it was only 1882. The conclusion
is that the disease yields readily to
treatment 10 the incipient stages, and
improved sc initiation has also contribut-
ed to its decline. Our own belief is
that the decline is due to the better
food which the people eat than they
did forty years ago, and better oppor-
tunlties for bathing Plenty of good
food and cleanliness will come nearer
arresting the earlier symptoms of con-
sumption than all else combined.

The shaft, 2S0 feet northeast from the original location, has been sunk to a depth of 125 feet.

 The following interesting mining news pertaining to the Globe district is supplied by the Silver Belt:
 Hugh Higdon and H. c. Haverly have a good copper claim in the Joyce, in Webster gulch, adjacent to the Black Warrior property, and upon the same ledge. They have sunk thirty or forty feet on the ledge, and have ore of a very good grade, and apparently there is an abundance of it. Work on the claim, suspended for several weeks, will be resumed within a few days.
 An English syndicate has become interested with N. L. Amster in the bond on the Continental group, eleven miles west of Globe, and the develop ment of the property will be com menced within a few days. The first work contemplated is to drive cross cut tunnel 800 feet and continue the present shaft down 150 feet to connect with the tunnel. E. D.

"X" RAYS From Heat.

There seems to be but little doubt now
that the *" rays discovered by Roentgen
find their origin in heat, for investigators
claim that negatives may be made from
ordinary heat. Photographs ought to be
very plentiful all the year around in the

summer would suffice, and in the summer
people are too busy enjoying themselves at
the summer resorts along the Saint Paul
& Duluth Railroad to daily with science.
This line, popularity known as the Duluth
Short Line, is studded with the finest in
land summer resorts to be found in the
country, which are sought annually by
people all over the United States. It is
also the peoples popular route between st.
Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, West Superior,
Saltwater, Taylor's Falls and other points
in the Northwest, where close connections
are made with trains and boats running in
all directions. It's trains are always fitted
with the latest and best equipment and nd
pains are spared to insure the convenience

story:

in Seattle, l convinced a man in a most
emphatic way that it paid to advertise,
said an old Journalist Gle was fairly
prosperous merchant, and Iehad tried TO,
a long time to get him to insert an ad-
vertisenent in my paper. .
g oh, it's no use he would say. .
never read the advertisements in a pa

vertising, but in way that will force
itself on the public. Then it pays. But

that people do read the advertising pages
of my paper, will you advertise?
s''Of course will. I advertise wher-
ever think it will do any good

in the lightest-faced agate in the office
and stuck it in the most obscure corner
Of the paper between couple of patent
medicine ads:
What is Cohen going to do about it?'
sfThe next day so many people annoyed
him by asking what that line meant
