silver resources.
We have everything the world wants
from gold to marbles, aud can raise every
thing we need ourselves, from whea. to
Wool. Fruit! just listen; 81 dean to,the
Union depot, and hear the sonorous voice
of the traiumen: "This way to Rocky
Ford.H "Fourth train on the left for
Grand Junction" ITO the right for
Loveland," ETC., etc. Yes, and "Greeley
for potatoes" "All free, ladies and gen
tlemen, help yourselves"
Have forgot New Mexico, have I? Not
much. "Al Aboard" calls the switch
man, to the above departing trains, while
he turns the switch bar to let the train
from "New Mexico to New York, via Den
yer and Chicago" ana loaded down with
fruit of all kinds. Then another, "Bati-
more and Washington, via st. Louis" and
so on, with several more to pass in the
night; all bound to various points in the
east.
Now, do not allow this-let Us set all
our miners to work. Let every merchant,
manufacturer. mlllman and mechanic.
grubstake prospector to hunt up new
mine. Let every mining man and min
ing operator lease, bond or buy every
paying mine or prospect liable to pay,
whose owner is not able to work it. Let
us push things and have little more of
prosperity of our own.
While engaged in doing this I would
like to call your attention to the great
possibility of stumbling on to fortune
a genuine golden one of your own in
dividual self by gold mining in New
Mexico.
There are holes that the old conq Vista
dores, or their employees rather, filled up,
are to be found, or better ones. But it
will take another article to put you on to
the combination by which you can help
yourself to the contents of natures vast
treasure vaults as they are builded in
New Mexico.
Plenty of transportation? The great
Santa Fe route runs through the territory
from north to south near the center;
stage lines, the most accomm odating, run
out on each side from almost every sta
ton. While the bronchos are trained,
and burro riding is good, and the sun
shines every day in the year.

Rendered a Decision.

San Francisco, Sept. 15.-Judge Wal
lace this morning rendered decision in
the suit instituted by G. K Fitch to oust
the members of the board of supervisors
from Office for malfeassnce, ordering a
judgment for the plaintiff as against all
the defendants as prayed for.
Fitch brought his action to oust the
supervisors for not fixing the water rates
in February as the law requires. The
supervisors did not fix the rates until
July, asserting that the Spring Valley
Water company, in spite of repeated re-
quests, had neglected to furnish the board
with data enough to enable it tintelligently
and fairly to fix the rates. 1t is said that
Mayor Phelan bas already selected the
members of the new board. Governor
Budd claims the appointing power and will
probably appoint another board. The
board just removed will not 90 out of

"The forts at the mouth Of the Co.

days when earthworks were used as
four a2.,nns for the guns of those
days. Now the big guns are force

and conorete work is necessary for tn ,
foundations for the big batteries. AT
Scarborough Head there win be bat
teries OF mortars, and think the same
kind of batteries will be placed at
Candy at any rate, extensive improves
ments will soon be commenced there.
Neither place will have large garr;-
sons The main garrison will be at
Fort Stevens, where the big rlfled guns
will be mounted. The work is stupen-
dous. and, like all luxurles, costs large
sums of money. but we must have
them. Our government is just waking
up TO the fact that this Northwest
coast is unprotected, and both the Co.
lumbla and the Sound will soon have
ample protection. Much has been done
and wonderful progress made in the
past five years.

to restrain the manifest intention Of
that erratic stream to resume the
channel abandoned 20 years ago. At
nightfall It looked like the effort might
succeed, but all hope is hedged about

ing their POSSESSIONS behind Houses
are standing in the food, submerged
In water from one 10 FIVE feet deep.
Fields Of grain and fences disappear
beneath the surface of the water. and
trees no longer show any trunks. The
food Is pouring in upon the lowlands
OF the east Omaha bottoms in a
stream that is estimated TO be 20G1

east and pours into Florence lake and
then over the fields into Cutof lake.
In the last "a hours Cutoff lake has
risen almczt two feet. II this rate
continues 1t Is anticipated thai by
morning the lake will overflow III
