superb number. The handsome, colored
cover has beneath the flags Of the
United States and Cuba the portraits
of Washington and Jose Marti the
father of the present revolution, whose
untimely death was an irretrievable
loss to Cubans. Extracts from the

In McCzatre's Magazine for March is
brought to light a speech OF 1881 oy
Abraham Lincoln, which the biogra-
pliers until now, seemingly, have known
nothing of, though it contains passages
still of the highest interest. For ex-
ample, of politicians, Lincoln says: "a
set of men who have interests aside
from the interests of the people, and
who, to say the most of them, are, taken
as a mass. at least one long step re-
moved from honest men. l say this
with the greater freedom, because, be-
ing politician myself, none can regard
if as personal" There are also an
amusingly judicious love proposal OF
Lincoln's, and some lively reminls-
cences of him as the leader in sue
cessful manpuvre to establish the State
capital at Springfield, and as young
lawyer in that smart new town. Inc
pictures are numerous, and include
four portraits of Lincoln.

SHELTER AT CERRILLOS.
Capt. Baiuc Will Break Ground for a
Modern Smelter at Little Pitts
burg In January

Capt. Marion Balue, president and
superintendent of the Mary Mining &
Smelling company, will leave for the
mines of his company at Kelly, Socorro
county, tonight
Before leaving for the south Capt.
Balue assured representative of the New
MEXICAN that he would certainly break
ground at Cerrillos for the long pro-
jected smelter of his company IN the
early part of the coming January. The
delay was originally caused by the in
ability of Capt. Balue to secure title to
the lands he wanted for his smelter site at
Cerrillos, and, when the gentleman went
east to complete his arrangements for the
erection of the smelter, he found his wife
80 critically ill that he was obliged to re-
main at her bedside for weeks.
Capt Balue says that he intends at once
to put up an entirely new smelter of six.
ty-five tons capacity with power sufficient
to run one of double that capacity. It is
possible that he may conclude to buy the
Sandia smelling plant and add it as an
annex to the new smelling plant he has
contracted for in Chicago.

MANY EAGER INQUIRIES.
New Mexican's Recent Immigration
Edition Has Stirred Up Nj UGH Fresh .
Interest in the Coming sun
shine state.

Letters asking for copies of the New
MEx1oAN's special edition are coming in
from many sections of the west by every
mail. This morning there was one from
a man at Horton, Brown county, Kansas,
and another from Sioux City, Iowa. Both
of these parties write that they have made
up their minds to locate in New Mexico
and desire all the literature they can get
on the territorys resources in order that
they may induce their friends and neigh
bors to come also.
Appended area few more comments
by the territorial press on the subj ect
of this enterprise:
The special immigration edition of the
NEW MEXICAN is indeed creditable piece
of work, and is we'll worth the small price
asked as something better than any letter
you can write to eastern friends. The
to literally assist the publishers of this
special edition by using almost the entire
edition.--Socorro Advertiser.
Ky
The special immigration edition of the
Santa Fe New MEXICAN is at hand; it
fully comes up to the expectations of
everyone. Every section in the territory
is fully represented, and with the gem
eral distribution that will be granted the
edition, it will prove strong immigra-
tion document for New Mexico. In 60
ing to the time, trouble and expense of
getting out such paper the New Mexi-
can Printing company is entitled to great
credit.-Roswell Record.
x**
The immigration edition of the Santa
Fe New MEXICAN, which has been looked
for for some time, has made its appear
ance. 1t is the result of commendable
effort on the part of it's publishers to ma
terially advance the interests of New
Mexico, and no doubt it's influence in
promoting the prosperity Of the territory
will be far reaching. 1t gives CON-
plete report of the industries of the ter
ritory and brief history of its officials
and leading business men. It is adorned
with numerous illustrations of prominent
men ana leading institutions, which add
greatly to its appearance. The edition
contains brief sketches of number of
prominent men Of this county. We I'M
derstand that $4,000 copies were printed
and we bespeak for the issue a very lib
eral patronage. II should be largely cir
culated in the states.-San Juan Index.

THE BORREGO CASE.
Opinion of the 4. =. supreme Court
Received This MOrning-Th I'M
pOrtRnt Points Decided.

Solicitor-General John p. Victory re-
ceived from Washington this morning a
copy of the opinion of the U. s. supreme
court in the case of the Borrego gang of
assassins. The opinion was prepared by
Chief Justice M. W. Fuller and is the
unanimous expression of the court. 1t
is quite lengthy but the New MEXICAN
will print it in full in day or two. Snf-
flee for the present to say that it deals
exhaustvely with all the technicalities
raised in the trial of these murderers by
their attorney, I. B. Catron, and in every
instance rules in favor of the regularity
of their hearing in the New Mexico
courts. Three points are thus decided in
behalf of the people and of Justice.
First, as TO the right of appeal to the
U. 5. supreme court by habeas corpus, it
is decided that there is none.
Second, the right of district Judge to
hold court in districts other than his own,
is declared legal and fully authorized by
law; and
IhIu, uhdt phe special terul OF Jne us
trict court at Santa Fe wherein these
criminals were tried in nowise conflicted
with the terms of court in San Juan and
Taos counties, and was perfectly regular
-"jurisdiction did not depend on the
stroke of the clock"
The status of this celebrated case now
is such that, upon receipt of the U. S.
supreme courts mandate, following tine
opinion above referred to, and which
under the rule should reach Santa Fe
about the 26th of next month. an ad-
journed session of the territorial gu
preme court will be called to fix day at
least twenty days hence for the execution
of the murderers.

A dispatch from Albuquerque says
that since the election the territory has
been over-run with wool buyers from Bos-
ton and st. Louis, and the competition
has stimulated prices to an extent before
unheard of. A St. Louis firm has taken
at top prices seventeen tons that had
lain for year at Albuquerque awaiting
a buyer. The demand from sheep feeders
of Nebraska and Colorado has absorbed
nearly all the sheep fit for feeding, Colo
RADIO buyers taking 100000 head in one

contracted for. Local buyers will be
sent to all sheep ranches, where it is be-
lieved vast amount have been carried
