HOME INSTITUTIONS.

On another page of this issue of the
NEW MEXICAN will be found review of
the sixth annual catalogue of the Univer-
sity of New Mexico for l897-189S.
From this review may be gathered
some idea of what is being accomplished
by this institution, and what 1t has to Of
fer to the people of the territory. few
days since the New MEXICAN presented to
it's readers brief article on the advant-
ages of home education, or rather the duty
of patronizing home institutions. It was
pointed out in this article that the schools
of New Mexico we're nearly it not quite
up to the eastern standard, and that they
were deserving of the patronage of the
people of the territory. The catalogue
above referred to brings this argument
home with telling force. When we say
that the schools OF the territory approach
the eastern standard we do not mean, of
course, that the University of New Mex

a nhSTARnIY CRIME

The killing of young Harold Morley by
unknown persons near Earlham, small
town south of Las Cruces, few days
since, was one of the most dastardly
crimes in the history Of the territory.
The foreman of the dead boys fathers
ranch is suspected of the foul deed but
up to date, as far as can be learned, no
arrests have been made for lack Of def.
mite information. The authorities of
Dona Ana county should exert every pos
sible effort to bring to justice the perpe-
traitors of this foul crime. Such crimes
should not 60 unpublished. The only
possible motive for the deed, Is found in
the fact that certain Mexicans of the
neighborhood had disagreement with
the boys father regarding land titles.
The evidence shows that he left his home
on horseback. He was undoubtedly
lassoed from his horse and then dragged
to the tree from which his body was
found suspended, Morley was only Is
years old, and is described as being q
bright and handsome lad who made
friends wherever he went

THE plan of the city fathers of Chicago,
to reap large harvest of shekels by tax
ing bicycles has met with an impeachment.
The Circuit court has decided that the
license ordinance recently passed is I'M
constitutional, but this decision will be
appealed from, and final conclusion will
not probably be reached for some time to
come. There seems to be a Willingness on
the part of wheelmen to pay reasonable
tax, provided the proceeds are used for
the improvement of roads, because they
we'll know that if there is continuous
effort made to supply modern payements
they will save in repairs to wheels much
more than the amount of the tax.

IT is said that German has succeeded in
making at a low cost an acceptable syrup
from sugar beets which has not hitherto
been found possible. The product is
said 10 be very agreeable and to contain
no injurious substances whatever. Raw
beet sugar is asingularly disagreeable COM
pound which no one would think of eating,
and there has been hitherto no way known
of eliminating the impurities except by
completely refining into crystalized
sugar. The new discovery, if con.
frmed, will increase the market for sugar

THlRIY-TWO MILLIONS LOST.

During the pendenoy of the Dlngley bill
in congress the NEW MEXICAN repeatedly
insisted that every days delay would cost
this country millions of dollars. That
this was the literal truth is amply proven
by these official figures: "a statement
prepared by Worthington @. Ford, chief
of the bureau of statistics, shows that the
rush of importations during March, April,
May and June, in anticipation of the en-
actment of the new tariff lew, will result
in an estimated loss to the government Of
$32 ,666,427. The loss on wool duties is
the largest, amounting to $24,027,9D.
Mr.. Ford gives the opinion that about 10
per cent of this increased importation is
properly due to the improvement In bust
ness conditions generally. The total loss
is estimated at 36,296,0 30, and with the
10 per cent deducted, the estimated net
loss is $32,666,427."
Democratic wool growers will find
small comfort in the fact that the loss on
wool duties amounts to $24,O00,000, or
more than two-thirds of the whole loss.
If the senate had been as Republican
as the house said bill would have been a
law in April and most of this immense
sum would have been paid into the treas
ury in duties on importations. But bad
rs this is it is only small part of the
injury Inflicted on the country by the
Democratic and populist obstructionlsts.
The immense quantity of wool which has
been rushed into the country and which ia
on the market, must keep the price of our
own product down until the foreign stock
is exhausted. In the mean time Demo-
cratic newspapers and politicians and
congressman will not fail to mislead the
wool growers by 81 eoious arguments that
the price of wool is not advancing al
though the Dingley bill is in force.
But there is one thing that all their
lying cannot wipe out and that is the
prostration of every branch of industry
during the entire life of the infamous
Wilson law. How will they account for
the undeniable fact that while the new
tariff was being discussed for four months
in congress and by the people not single
speaker nor writer had the hardhood to
defend the last Dem cratic tariff? At it's
birth there was no rejoicing, and at its
death there was no mourning. 1t has gone
down
ITO that vile dust from whence it sprung
Unwept, unhonored and unsung."

above is one of those simple CONNECTIONS
that are of undenlable good style. The
fabric is grey canvas; the trimming
consists of bands of white braid, out
lined by black braid, and tipped with
steel buttons. The skirt is made with
five CORES, the front gore being rather
wide, 80 that the seam runs a little back
of the front edges of the trimming. The
four lower bands are 20 inches long. The
upper ones extsnd almost to the pleats

seamless, and like the front, has a yoke
effect in trimming. The front of the
blouse is cut to hang very full over the
belt, and fastens at the left shoulder and
under-arm seams. The standing collar
and the belt are of black taffetas, both
fastening at the left side. A ruche of
lace is set all around the collar. There
