civil service, while on The other hand
many of the influential members Of con-
grees have become thoroughly disgusted
with it. This state of affairs renders the
situation somewhat interesting, since any
act passed by congress looking to the
modification of the present law, or its re-
peal would probably be met with an ex-
ecutlve veto.
To carry out the provisions of the act
money is req quired, and should no appro~
priations be made for that purpose, the
civil service commission would be out of
job and the act necessarily imperative.
The house subcommittee on the legis-
lative, Judicial, and executive approprie
tion bill is now at work, and there will
be contest over the appropriation for
the civil service commission. Congress
man Hemenway, from Indiana, says that
if it were left to him not dollar should
be appropriated for that purpose. In

at present administered, and would in
dorse any steps congress might take to
bring that service back to where it was
originally intended or repeal the law al
together. There will be stubborn fight
in congress over the question before we
are done with it,"
The gentleman could have added that
the people of New Mexico are also over
whelmingly against the civil service
law and will be highly pleased when it is
relegated to the list of has beens.

EUROPEAN TROUBLES.

A glance at the political troubles of the
countries of the old world, particularly
those of Europe, will easily convince any
one that sweet peace is suffering to the
straining point over there.
Germany has seized upon one of the
most important ports of China on mere
prete1t and is apparently settling down
ON the Chaow Kiow bay for keeps; France
is jealous of her old time enemy and has
ordered war vessels to the scene of the trou-
BILE, while China has appealed TO Russia
for fair play. Russia will hardly remain
neutral in the matter, as that country has
vast interests In the orient, and just what
will come of Emperor Williams little
effort to secure footing upon the east
ern shores of Asia is yet to be deter
mined. England, of course, will come in
at the proper time and the concert of
Europe will hardly be harmonious, to say
the least.
Greece, not content with the humilia-
tion of the results of the recent war with
Turkey, is on the war path again and
things are warming up on the frontier OF
these countries. Should the powers in
terfere again the sultan may feel called
upon to proceed to Seragio point and
unfurl the banner Of the prophet; then
the fur will fly.

RELATIVE VALUE OF GOLD AND SILVER.

The steady advance in the price of
silver the past two months, while not
rapid, has brought the market value up
beyond the 60 cent mark, and there are
commercial prophets who predict that
81 an ounce will be paid for that metal
before another twelvemonth passes. The
steadiness with which the price has ad-
vanced would indicate that the increase
in value has come to stay, and the day is
apparently not far distant when the many
valuable silver properties in New Mexico
can sgein be worked with profit.
That the decline of the price of silver
has worked hardship and loss npon this
territory, anyone who has knowledge of
former conditions, knows full well, but
there is "no great loss without some
small gain, and in regard to the mining
situation the gain has been greater than
the loss. The fall in the price of silver
turned the attention of hundreds of miu-
ers to the search for gold properties, and
in the seeming misfortune the devslop-
ment of the gold bearing lodges of the
territory has been brought about. With
the opening of the abandoned silver mines
will come double measure of prosperi-
ty Both the white and yellow metals
will add their wealth to that of the re-
sources of the miners and in that meas
ure will the entire people of New Mexico
be benefited.
The relative output of gold and silver
offers some interesting figures. In 1892
the silver product of the United States
reached the high water mark; in 1897 the
gold output was the greatest ever known.
In September the director of the mint
gave out an estimate of the output of
gold for the year at $6o,o0o,OoO as against
S53,OOO,000 for last year. The value of
crease that amount to $65,0OO000. The
value of the silver mined the past year,
calculated at 60 cents, amounts to $67,-
100000. Taking the wonderful discov-
cries of COLA made in the past six months
into consideration, it is not difficult to
see that the mining of the two metals will
soon reach point where the supply of
both will restore the relative values of
the metals to something near what it has
been in the past.
In six years the gold output of the
able figure, as is shown by the following

Fat and Lean-How to Remedy Tend

There are always women eager to be-
come thin and others eager to become fat
but it is admitted among physicians that
it is easier to reduce flesh thai to increase

sweated off, starved off if the victim has
resolution enough to submit to a continu-
Gus course of such treatment, but there are

1t is, Of course, easier to undertake to cor
rect emaciation when the cause of it Is
known. Where it is constitutional, the
case is well nigh hopeless, but where it
arises from dyspepsia, insufficient nutri
ton or nervous worry there is a better
chance Of combating it. Anxiety is po-
tent source of evil in this respect, as it de-
stroys the appetite, weakens digestion and
induces sleeplessness.
Anybody who wishes to grow plump
should eat as much nourishing, easily di-
gested food as possible, drink milk, cream
and beer exercise only enough to keep in
health, avoid all mental cxertion and
