Mr.. CHIlDERs RECOMMENDATIo-'.

In another column of today's issue of
the NEW MEXICAN will be found letter
written by Aotiag Governor Miller to the
members of the Tennessee Centennial ex-
position delegation, upon recommends
ton of Hon. W. B. Childers chairman of
the delegation. Mr.. Childers writes that
the exhibit from New Mexico is attract
ing widespread attention and very ia
vorable comment. From this condition
of affairs he naturally concludes that the
scope of this exhibit should be extended
so as to embrace fruits, vegetables and
all classes of farm products, wines, and
such other productions as the territory
excels in. Mr.. Childers has visited the
big exposition and knows exactly what
he is talking about. To the end that his
recon mendation may be carried into
effect, he asks, through Mr.. Miller, that
the members of the delegation use their
best efforts to have the several counties
of the territory make appropriations.
This is artimely hint to the territory and
the counties thereof ard should receive
favorable consideration. At the present
time the territory has only mining ex-
hibit on the ground. Certainly this
should be extended to include general
productions. 1t will be money we'll spent,
and the results will be more than COM
mensurate with the sum expended.

IT will be observed that the consollda-
tion of industries and financial institu-
tions goes right on in the face of the eff
forts of legislatures to prevent it, all of
which indicates that it is natural de-
velopment of the industrial conditions of
the times. The fact that such develop
ment is dangerous and menace to free
institutions has nothing to do with the
tendency of the times which is in the d.
rection of consolidation for almost every
thing. just where the thing will end no
one knows. A great mistake of the past
has been in putting the legislative ma
chinery lof the respective states and of
the United States in the hands of those
Whose interests demand this dangerous
consolidation. After this manner very
material aid has been rendered, and the
powers of government have been used to
subserve the very interests which it is
the plain duty of government to oppose.

The talk of war between Germany and
England is probably without any serious
foundation. That the "War Lord" might
offer England provocation in South Afri
ca in the way of extending watlike coun-
sells and the offer of arms and advising
military officers to the Beers is not i'm
possible, but it is doubtful, even in that
extent, if England would consider the
idea of trouble with Germany, which
would be very different thing from
war with the Beers alone, or with the
Kat1irs, or the Zulus, or the Matabeles, or
the Ashantees, or the Cahomeyans. More
over, at the final moment it is not SO GER
tain the "War Lord" would be vehement
in his desire for war with frst-class
power, like Russia, for instance. The
peace of Europe is fairly secured, though
no one can predict when trouble may
break out in the Soudan or Madagascar

Santa Fe road kindly consented to give
free transportation for the same over its
lines as far as Kansas City.
This is the way to make the resources
of the territory known to the outside
world, aud too much attention cannot be
given to advertising of this kind. En-
couraging reports come from Mr.. Lesson,
He writes that the mineral exhibit is at
tracing a great deal of attention, and
that good results will follow as a matter
of course.
The board of immigration is doing
good work in advertising the resources OF
the territory.
The last pamphlet from this body was
q model of its kind-just the sort of g
publication to attract the attention Of
capitalist and homeseeker, upon whom
the territory depends for future develop
ment. The outlook for New Mexico or
the whole was never brighter than today
and those who are making homes in this
land of sunshine certainly have no reason
| to regret their choice of location.

referred to consists of 10000 copies of a
pamphlet recently issued by the board of
immigration together with 10000 copies
of special newspaper immigration edi-

Mexican Printing company.
