BLAND NOTES..
A Hint to Santa Fe Businessmen
Special to the New Mexican.

Special to the New Mexican.
Bland, April 25.-The most pressing
need of the camp at the present time is
a custom mill. This will enable the
men who are prospecting to develop
their claims and derive some profit from
the output of ore.
The upper road from Santa Fe to
Bland should receive the attention of
Santa Fe buSinets men. 1t would cost
very little to place the road in condition
for freighting, and a ferry across the
river would enable the trip to be made
in one day. Santa Fe supplies could
then be laid down to Bland from 10 to Ii
cents per hundred cheaper than from
Albuquerque.
The work of %excavating for the new
mill at the Albemarle is completed and
the machinery is being placed in posi-
ton.
Mr.. Posey is expected to arrive at
Bland any day and it is thought that he
will decide to put in Il mill for the Crown
Point.

A Noble War.

The flaming sword of war has de-
scended upon the perpetrators OF bar
barity in Cuba. Humanity will mete
out summary justice to the tiends who
write Spanish history with the blood of
women and children; and a cycle of
rapine and murder will be succeeded by
an epoch of freedom.
The spectre of gaunt misery, which
stalks zeal the border of a Christian
nation, mantled with the horror-reeking
flag of Cuba Libre and crying to heaven
for vengeance, will be stilled and laid
to rest, let it be hoped, forever, as far
as Cuba and the Cubans are concerned.
But while the American eagle rends
the buzzard of cruelty, and the humane
tartan instincts of a sympathetic and
responsive nation are appeased, the cost
should be considered.
As the ashes of devastated homes are
scattered by the powder laden clouds
rolling inland from the battlefield, and
wreaths of smoke from smouldering in
dustries are waited heavenward by the
breath of dying heroes, the stern visage
of war will relax and a beauteous ex-
preston of compassion will bedeck the
countenance of victory.
When the recording angel enters an
other credit to the greatest liberty low
ing nation IN earth and the joyous
shouts of victory resound from hill to
vale, hamlet to metropolis and sea to
sea, as they surely will, the voice of
providence will echo a tone of sadness
as the bcnediction is pronounced: ''Well
done, good and faithful %servants:'' for
40 matter how grand the inspiration, the
path of a is trod by passion, cruelty,
misery, and blood.
Were the stars forming the emblem
of freedom as broad as the blue, silver
studded vault of night, and the stripes
as long as the crystal arches of day,
old glory would be too small to cover
the miseries resulting from wars devas-
tation. Oceans of tears, seas of blood,
CULTS of woe, thousands of lives and
millions of money are the costs of war.
That this country brings distress upon
itself to alleviate the distress of another
country il more than commendablp. 1t
is noble.

Citizens Passed Resolutions Pledging Finan.

Special Correspondence.
Badly, N. NJ, April 21, 1s9s.-At
mass meeting held in Badly, April 20.
the following resolutions were unani
mously adopted:
Whereas, An impending war with 8
foreign powerthreatens the interests o.
our nation, and
Whereas, We, as loyal American citi
zens feel that we owe a duty to oul
country, it is hereby
Resolved, That we pledge our finan.
cial and physical support to the presi-
dent in order to maintain the dignity
and self-respect of our nation, individu-
ally and collectively and to show to oul
executive that he can draw from us both
arms and money in sustaining the sta
ton which this nation rightfully holds.
The above resolutions were adopted
after spirited outbursts of patriotic
speeches by prominent residents of the
city of Badly. Never before in the his.
tory Of our city has there been such a
gathering of people, and the Oldest in
habitants cannot recall from his memory
such patriotic sentiments as were eX-
pressed, and undoubtedly a regiment OF
900 men could be raised on two days
notice. While the mines are all work
ing and the mills running full blast the
men would leave Immediately for the
front if they were called upon. AS an
illustration of how the men feel in this
district, a teamster bringing in some i'm
portant machinery for the Gold Coin
company, left it at the creek and pulled
out for Springer, hearing that the recruit
ing Office there had been opened.
Business is generally suspended in
Badly tonight. Nothing but talk of war.
While the citizens generally hope for
peace they feel that war and war only
can atone for the Maine disaster. The
feeling is extremely bitter here and none
can portend the results.
Hon. John X. Cochran, of New Phila-
delphia, o., arrived in camp today and
is looking over the ground preparatory
to putting in a cyanide plant to treat
rebellious ores from claims in which he
is interested. He is much pleased with
the general outlook of the district. He
is particularly impressed with the ac-
tivity shown by the local investors. He
is accompanied on his trip by Chas. L.
Kellogg, of Salem, Mass. one of the
largest cotton manufacturers in the
world, who is looking for a large, low
grade proposition. From a conversation
held this evening it is learned that he
has made a deal whereby he and his
friends will become interested in Badly
district.
Chas. A. Pillsbury, of Minneapolis,

company has just concluded sinking a 1866
feet in the shaft and that drifting both
ways on the vein from the level has
been started. The Shoshone vein is
eight feet wide, in granite and porphyry
walls, and contains Il 30-inch pay streak
that returns better than 500 values per
ton. The remainder of the vein gives
from $40 to $50 value. Several hundred
feet of drifting has been done on the
first, or 1OO-foot level. and as soon as
working space has been attained on the
second level, stopping will be started and
a shipping output of two cars per week
inaugurated.
Mr.. Gusdorf states that considerable
activity is shown in the district and that
the ensuing year will give astonishing
results.
Steen Il Coble are working four men
OF the Iron Dixie claim, which is located
within a mile of the Shoshone. The
dixie from which the mine derives its
name, is so feet wide and can be traced
a distance of five miles. 1t gives from
81 to ST. per ton average values. Thos.
A. Edison is interested in the project,
and will furnish the facilities for the
reduction of the ores.
Veiner e. Stanley are running a tun-
mel on the Gold Queen claim. They
have attained Assistance of 100 feet. The
tunnel will cross-cut the formation to
the Shoshone vein, and give a depth of
400 feet on the mineral. The breast of
the tunnel shows considerable quartz,
and from all indications it is close to
the vein.
The Rockingham Mining company,
notice of the organization of which APP
peared in the New MEXICAN, Monday,

Tom Bryan as superintendent.
VIM. Frazier has bonded his group of
claims on the Rio Hondo to the Stand
ard Oil company, for $500, 900. 1t is eX-
pected that the bond will be taken up
soon.

WAR preparations cost much money.
Naturally there is a great hurry now
and in a hurry there is much waste.
Millions of money will be spent for
which no adequate return will be had.
This condition of affairs is due wholly to
the foolish policy of congress during the
past few years, which swiftly occurring
events now prove to have been false
economy and in reality extravaganza.
The country is learning the difference
between true and false economy now.

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY acted wisely in
en~deavoring to avoid the horrors of war.
Those who have traced its misery from
the carnage of battle to tear-stained
and desolate hearthstones, know it well.
Old warriors revere the heroic nature
that braved the storm Of popular pro-
test to save the country from misery

The tocsin of war is ~resounding
throughout the width and breadth OF
this land and it has a mighty strong and
courageous sound. Cuba must be free.
the Monroe doctrine must be upheld.
starvation and misery must cease in
Cuba and the honor and dignity Of this
country must be maintained. That's
what the sound of the tocsin means.

The coming war with Spain will, in
the very nature of things, cost this
country men and money. 1t will be a
wal not waged for the acquiring of more
territory, but in the cause of humanity
and to uphold the dignity and honor of
this country. This is progress and
quite astonishing to the great nations of
Europe, who think of nothing else e.
cept land grabbing and of the extension
of their power.
