WEDNESDAY,, DECEMBER IA.

The attitude of the Republican party
of New Mexico has always been con-
sistent on the question of the admission
of the territory as a state. We favored
the admission of the territory when the
Democratic party was united in their
opposition against it. We still favor
it's admission, believing that there is no
good and substantial reason for keeping
us out of the Union as a state and be-
lieve that this can best be accomplished
by the election of a delegate to congress
who is in harmony with Republican
politics and principles.-Republican
Platform, New Mexico, 1898.

Flushing, N. Y, Dec. 5, 1898.
Editor New York Press:
My attention has just been drawn to
an article in your issue of November 80,
relative to turquois mines in New Mex
leo, and the death of Mr.. DeMules,
headed Fell victim to Mexican hate"
which is so unjust that it seems proper
to make some correction.
The whole article relative to the
mines is a kind of fairy tale with little
historic foundation; but that is not the
point in question. According to the ar
ticle the mining of %turquois has always
peer "bathed in blood and its record is
a bloody history for ages" There is
nothing to warrant this statement. The
%turquois of New Mexico We're first
heard of by Cabeza DeVaca in 1886, and
their size and quantity form a leading
feature in Marcos DeNiza's exaggera-
ted report in 1889. They were found in
use at all events in all of the Pueblo
towns by Coronado in 1540-41, and they
continue in that use by that interesting,
unchanging people down to this day.
During the period from 1900 to 1850, the
Spaniards opened a multitude of silver
mines and a few of %turquois. and these

Carnegie, the Scotch-American steel
manufacturer, of more or less renoWn,
objects to the annexation of the Philip
pines for fear that the United States
will be ruined by the embarrassment of
riches. Nine-tenths of the people of the
country would enjoy the sensation of
being embarrassed by wealth, and for
that reason Mr.. Carnegie and his fell
low fearsomes will find that all their
weeping and shouting over something
which has not happened has been for
naught. The Americans cannot be
frightened by visions of wealth; they
are generally able to care for all of that
commodity that comes their way.

Statehood and lakes.

In less than five weeks time the 33d

greatest concern to the people and the
prosperity of the territory at the pres
ent time are those of statehood and tax

APPEAL FOR POOR STUDENTS.

Fifteen Southern Young Men Who Want to
Study at Union College, Schenectady.
This appeal has been received from DR.. A. V.
v. Raymond. President Of Union College.
Schenectady:
Fifteen young men. all descendants Of old
Southern families impoverished by the war.
have. through much sacrifice. completed their
preparatory studies and now desire TO enter
Union College. Schenectady. N. Y. but lack the
money necessary for a college course. The
college has already promised help to so many
for next year that it can do no more, and these
young men will probably be denied the adj
vantages of higher education unless some I'M
known friends come to their aid.
Both before and since the. war an unusually
large proportion of the students OF Union Col
leRe have come from the South. and especially
from the section to which these young men be-
long. which doubtless accounts for their choice
Of Union rather than OF some other Northern
college. Moreover. the cost Of an education at
Union Is less than Mt many other colleges.
No one will question tho desirabilIty OF
bringing together young mon from different
parts Of the country. since thereby sectional
prejudices arc removed and mutual under
standing and respect cultivated with direct
gain to our national life. Especially is this
Fellowship desirable between the North and
the South. This is one consideration which
come to me on behalf Of these southern-stu
dents and l shall be glad to give more definite
information concerning them IL desired by any
one who Ia inclined to help them.
The sum Of $3.50 is sufficient to meet the
needs Of one student for q year.

has over fifty acres in t~easels this year. and will
handle tho output OF forty acres raised by

machin es for trimming and sorting them and
preparing them for market. which requires
much skill and knowledge of tho require
ments ofthe manufacturers who use them, Any
one can raise ~teasels; in fact. they will grow
themselves. but very few can market them.
Mr.. saytelle says he T. going out of the busi-

them lis likely to come to an end,
The crop OF teasels is being harvested now.
They are cut as soon as the blossoms begin to
