every consideration consistent with
their rank. While relieving the pris-

will be no disposition to bestow such
effusive courtesy upon them as to
place them in the light of hero martyrs.

Out
For Cancer

Few people are born entirely free from
blood faint. This is often very slight or
remote, and sometimes may not develop
at all in one generation, but breaks out
in a serious disease later.
Cancer, the most dreadful of all dis
eases, is often the result of some blood
faint inherited from generations back.
1t often appears as a mere mole or III
significant pimple, which later develops
into All alarming condition. No one
know but that he may be subject to an
inherited i1npurity i'll the blood, nor can
he tell whether or not this may some
day crop ont in the form of destructive
cancer 1t is, therefore, important that
any little sore or scratch, which does
not readily heal, be given prompt atten-
ton, or a serious condition may result.
Mr.. Robert Smedley, of Ocala, Fla,
was the victim of a malignant cancer,
which first appeared in the manner
above described. He writes:
sat first 1 paid no attention to the
little blotches or my face, thinkingthey
would soon pass away. Before long,
however, they became sore, and soon
began to enlarge. l fp. lied ordinary

quartz at Amizctt, La Belle, Red River,
| Elizabethtown. Cochiti, Dolores, Golden,
| San Pedro, Hillsboro, Pinos Altos, Mo-
COLON. White Oaks and numerous other
promising mining districts in New Mex
leo. and the results of this diligent work
are certain to add immensely to the flu
ture gold output of this territory. In
several of the districts named the sur
face indications of yellow riches are
much more marked and inviting than
were the graSs-root indications ut Grip
pie Creek, and. since most OF the land
grant clouds have been dissipated by the
courts and perfect titles can be secured,
capital is eagerly seeking investment in
the mines of the territory and there are
substantial reasons for confidence that
among the fruits thereof will be the
early disclosure of several rivals of the
great Colorado gold camp in New Mex
leo. All that is required to accomplish
this is money for development purposes
and the erection of adequate reduction
plants, and this desideratum is being
rapidly and plentifully provided by men
possessing the requisite nerve, energy,
experience and sagacity to employ it to
the best possible advantage. During the
past zeal the New MEXICAN has pub.
lished columns of cheering details con
corning operations in the numerous
mining districts of this territory and
hence need not here enter into a specific
statement of the reasons why it has UNI
bounded faith that a golden era is about
to dawn upon the magnificent territorial
empire known on the map as New
Mexico.

Dasher was a college football player who

He was swift us a deer, quick as thought,
strong as u giant.
The ground trembled beneath his tread,
and foes turned pale ut his very look.
No cline could battle his power of pen

or the Anabasis.
He could pass the ball with marvellous
celebrity and precision. In fact, he could
pass anything in the great college race ex-
cept AN exam"
And yet, stupid as he was in his studies,
he had a nimble wit and a cool, unwaver-
ing assurance that often served him well.
When he left college, he was wooed and
won by tho daughter of Peregrine p.
Buckingham, the Chicagoan who had,
Midasliko, turned every porcine product
he touched to gold. Mr.. Buckingham was
not entirely pleased with his prospective
son-in-law.

An EXAMPLE 10 be Followed.

GOVERNOR M. II. McCoRD is making
an earnest and strong attempt to bring
about a better state of affairs in the as
sessment of taxable property in Arizona
and a better, more honest and moro
thorough collection of axe He has
issued a call for Il convention of assessors,
collectors. boards of supervisors and
members of the board of equalization to
meet in Phoenix at an early date, will
lay the matter before this convention
and urge concerted action to enforce the
tax laws by all officials charged by
law with the assessment. equalization
and collection of taxes.
This is what the governor means to
bring to the attention and action of the
convention:
THE furtherance of economy in the
management of territorial and county
affairs, and the possibility for raising
revenue from territorial industries now
practically exempt from taxation. Ari-
zona is generally considered primarily a
mining region; yet her mines Dear an
almost inconsiderable portion of the bur
densof government. The agriculturists,
stockmen and railroads pay nearly all.
The total assessment of the territory is
$40. 900. 900. Yet one mine alone within
Arizona. the United Verde at Jerome, is
commercially rated as worth $50, 900, 900.
1t pays taxes in Yavapai county on about
$500, 900 in improvements and machinery.
Other large mines, the main ones only
considered, would bring the territorial
wealth up to fully $3.50, 600, 900, could
they be assessed. 1t is believed the only
way to secure revenue from the mines
is by a tax on the bullion output, for the
value of ore in place could not be esti-
mated.
ITO aid in the work to be done. the
governor has asked that meetings be
called for the same date in Phoenix of
the Arizona Live Stock association and
the Territorial Agricultural society. A
special call has also been issued from the
executive Office asking for a general
gathering in Phoenix, January rs, of the
miners of Arizona for the purpose of
forming a miners association"

Jumping on Delegate Fergus

Delegate Ferguson is not slow him
self when it comes to bidding for votes
in future campaigns. The bill for the
permanent location of the capital AT
Santa Fee is a valueless bid for the vote
of Santa Fe county next fall. 1t is
worth nothing to the people of Santa Fe
county. because the capitol is already
assured to that city for many years to
come. The appropriation for the re-
building of the capitol voted by the last
legislature, made the capitol a fixture.
The people of the territory would not
allow another appropriation to be made
for the building of a capitol at another
place. In the event of the territory
being admitted to statehood, Mr.. Fer
gusson's bill for the permanent loca-
ton of the capitol would lose its
force and the people of the state would
locate the capitol Just where they
pleased. So much for that bid. But
now to even matters up and make peace
with his Bernalillo county constituency,
he proposes to consolidate the govern
ment posts, to make one large military
post at Albuquerque. Very kind and
~magnanimous toward Bernalillo county
which gave a majority against him. But
oh! how ungrateful to Grant county
which gave such a generous majority
for him. He would abandon Fort Bay
ard as well as Fort Wingate. This fort
is a necessity on this southwestern from
tier. as well as a benefit to business in
dustries by reason of the money put in
circulation by the soldiers. Perhaps
Mr.. Ferguson believes he has the vote
of Grant county corraled and he can
now use one Of Grant county's business
resources to bid for Bernalillo county
votes. Perhaps? - Silver City Enter
