SANTA FE COUNTY, .PLACERS
Recent Discoveries in South Santa Fc

Golden, N. NJ, July 30, 1897.-The dis
coveries made recently in south Santa F
county will be the means of bringin,
about great revival in the mining busi
ness, in the rich but as yet almost IN
known new placer mining district, ais,
known as the Golden and San Pedrt
country.
For years it has been the prevailing be
lief here that gold of this district was tc
be found only in the immense croppings
and lodges of iron and copper stained rock
and quartz 80 common in the Ortiz and
Tuerto mountains. These enormous lodges
and blowouts, with few exceptions, carry
gold in paying quantities, the majority
of the ore being low grade and somewhat
| refractory. In some cases, small seams
of high grade ores cut through these
great bodies of mineral in every con,
ceivable direction, and in others pockets
of rich grade ore, varying in size, are
| found, increasing the general average of
the gold value of the ore and making
these properties desirable and valuable
low grade propositions.
With the present improved and ap-
proved processes of treatment all this
ore can be handled at good profit, while
heretofore it was considered of little
value on account of it's rebellious char
acter.
The discoveries of the rich white quartz
in the Gold Standard, the Miriam, the
Good Enough and the Agnes demonstrate
the fact that in addition to the many
large ore bodies referred to above there
are numerous blind lodes-that is, lodes
that do not show on the surface--of an
entirely different character. Should in
telligent exploiting prove that this net
work of blind leads is as extensive as we
have good reason to believe it ia, this
part OF Santa Fe county will become
regular El Dorado.

or anyone to go to "Alaska to freeze to

A B0UNTIFUL HARVEST.
Hon. j. Il. HinhIe of Lower PenascO,
Brings Pleasing News of His Sec
tiOn of the Territory.

Hon. j. f. Hinkle of Lower Penasco,
member of the territorial cattle sanitary
board, was in the city yesterday, and
brought cheering tidings from the south
eastern part of the territory.
In Lincoln county, which, with the ex-
ception of small section of country
around Nogal and White Oaks, is q graz
ing and agricultural section, everything is
promising bountiful harvest. When
"The frost is on the pumpkin
And the folders in the shock"
the people of Lincoln county will realize
that prosperity is once more smiling
upon New Mexico, and that
"Hard times have gone,
To come no more"
Crops of all kinds are growing like
Jacks bean stalk, while fruit ia as com
mon as tan shoes on race track. Water
for irrigation is abundant and rains have
been frequent aud copious. The range
is in fine condition, and cattle are in
splendid shape. Prices for all kinds of
cattle are 100 per cent better than one
year ago, and this will bring large
amount of ready cash into the country.
Around Nogal and White Oaks there is
considerable stir in the mines and work
of considerable Importance in the line of
development is being pushed in number
of good claims.
In Chaves and Eddy counties the same
favorable conditions obtain, and fruits,
grains and grasses are looking we'll and
promise all that any reasonable farmer
could desire. The sugar beets are doing
better this season than ever before, and
will be an exceptionally large yield.
In fact Mr.. Hinkle seemed to be of the
opinion that New Mexico, particularly
the southeastern part, will break all
former records N crops, mining output
and general prosperity this fall.

M'kINLEY INAUGURAL.

President Mckinley's inaugu-
raj address, which is given in full
in another column, il the sound,
patriotic and conservative dOcu-
nlent which the people Of the
United States had reason 10 eX-
pect. One Of the most noticeable
features IL the care with which
he has avoided any reference to
the mistakes of the past as the
result of the shortcomings of any
particular political party. He
upbraids no one. but recognizes
the failures of the previous adj
ministratiOn as existing, and calls
upon the citizens of the United
States. irrespective of party lines
and party prejudices, To set to
work to better the present cOndi-
ton. In this particular feature he
has put to shame some of his
predecessors and set good eX-
ample for those who will come
after him.
President Mckinley touches
lightly upon the monetary ques-
ton. endorses international bi-
metallism, suggests changes re-
garding paper currency and pro
poses a non partisan investigation
of the monetary system OF the
country, in order TO take the
question out of politics. The ref
erence 10 the depression in bust
ness and the depleted treasury
shows beyond question that
President Mckinley holds TO his
old principle that the taxation of

the farmer should have better re
turns for his labor, and argues
that assistance given the manu-
facturer is direct assistance to the
farmer. The lesson drawn from
the election * that the farmer

alton of markets for their prod
ucts, rather than Legislation that
deals directly with the size of the
dollar they receive. In carrying
out this principle the President
advocates IL return To the reel
procity policy of 1890, which will
gain for the American producer
special favors in foreign lands.
This, from the American stand
point. is sound doctrine.
The question of foreign rela-
tons is handled very gingerly.

The foes of Hawaiian annexation
will probably seek To interpret
this sentence as blow 10 this
