M0RGAN'S RESOLUTION.

Senator Morgans celebrated resolution
recognizing the belligerency of the in
surgents in Cuba, yesterday passed the
senate by vote of Al to IA. Many and
fierce were the protests against the
passage of this measure during the last
hours of the debate. Senator Hale de-
clared that the supporters of this meas
ure were trying to shape the policy of the
administration regarding Cuba, and that
the adoption of the belligerenoy motion
would involve US in war with Spain.
There were many other protests equally
strong, but in the face of all opposition
the measure passed with a good many
votes to spare.
The United States senate has put itself
on record, ana in no uncertain terms
The majority will BIO surprise to the
country. 1t is probably to be accounted
for to great extent from the fact that
the senate has recently had access to the
information concerning the conditions in
Cuba, forwarded to President Mckinley
by United States consuls in Cuba, as a
basis for his recent special message ask
ing for an appropriation. Many senators
have, no doubt, through the consular re-
ports become acquainted with the situa-
tion in Cuba, and have voted according
ly. The adoption of this resolution will
no doubt lead to important results.

The capitol rebuilding commission

THE capitol rebuilding commission
was in session yesterday and it is be-
lieved that from now on work on the re-
building of the capitol will be prosecut-
ed in earnest. Interest on the bonds sold
must be paid and some good should
come to the territory for this and the
good will come as soon as the capitol
building is finished. For that reason, if
for no other, work should be pushed with
persistency and energy. This the New
MEXICAN hopes will be the case. The
fact that such good and public spirited
citizens as Frank A. Manzansres, Sol.
Luna, W. y. Hopewell and W. Fl. Pope
are members of the commission is a
good and safe guarantee that such will be
done,

gives the street encouragement
A keen observer thinks stocks may be
bought cheaper this week on the passage
of the Cuban resolutions, but says if they
do slump, get right in and load up with
any bargains offered.
The stock market is again dull and ir-
regular, the bulls having little courage and
the bears willing to stand on their present
line until Washington news makes clear
the governments policy regarding Cuba.
Exchange transactions have increased in
daily average volume within the last ten
days, but business is largely that of street
operators. The Gould stocks are stronger,
especially Western Union, Manhattan and
Missouri Pacific. There is some covering
by shorts. Tobacco broke off sharply on
the Illinois court decision which prevents
it from doing business in that state.
There was some buying at the decline and
some caustic criticisms of that kind of
law. Coal roads are doubtless securing
better than the average prices for coal and
the market for coal stocks is better than
recently, in spite of the general opposi-
tion of the bears and the loosing of the
strings in the matter of the restricted
production. Reports claim that the Ar.
buckles are still fighting the sugar trust.
Large importations of coffee indicate that
the sugar trust are also fighting the Ar
buckles. Though Cuba today looks larger
than the sugar schedule in the United
States senate, it is still at least second
best in stock exchange circles. The long
est purses are no doubt on the long side
at every break and we feel sure the bill
will pass with sugar schedule favorable

ACCORDING to the reports of the U. s.
department of agriculture, New Mexico
had in 1896, a little over 100000 sheep.
Deducting losses and sales, calculating
that the remainder of the present year
will be good one for the sheep growing
industry, and taking into consideration
the fact that the increase in young sheep
this spring is unusually large, it may be
asserted that New Mexico by the end Of
1897 will contain 100000 sheep. Score
one for New Mexico this year of grace,

this great cooperative society.
We would hardly be justified in lend

interested in knowing just what the

let this money be squandere d and put

OUR sUFFIRIEGs AND AsPIRA-
TONS.


The colored man has had and is hav-
ing hard time Of it. In politics and
religion law and business, he has to
confront adverse condition the like OF
which would tend TO dishearten any
people.
We must not however be insensible
TO our own weaknesses or blind to our
shortcomings.
We have been the victims of a gall
ing slavery which has taught us to
blunder rather than TO make a sue
cess. We have had the gates which
lead to the garden-spot OF financial
prosperity closed against us, and n
the outside have had to establish in
dustries of our own.
In this we have attempted the task
OF making bricks without straw -
running business without capital, and
hoping for the dawn of a better day in
the future.
White men have deceived us with
visionary schemes, by which to de-
fraud US of our money and the dis
trust in ourselves which came to us
with slavery, has tended to keep us
from trusting each other when there
was really no risk to our finances in
such proceedings.
But the dawn has come at last, and
despite receptions and disappoint-
ments, in the face of wrong-doing and
criminal negligence, we are progress
ing along lines, which seem to indicate
that we are as yet to see the high-tide
of our industrial and financial prosper.
ity, the zenith of our permanent and
transcendent glory.
