The Kickers' Meeting Unnec
essary but Profitable.

While this meeting of the asso-
citation was wholly uncalled for,
as it fortunately terminated, it
was certainly productive of much
good. It convinced the hundreds
of growers of the lurking enemy
which was seeking the disruption
of the association, and the great
and disastrous results should this
hidden foe be allowed to gain an
abiding place in the minds Of the
stockholders.

Horticultural Rivalry.

10 tho Editor OF the Enterprise:
1 see by your paper that Bro.
Badger wants to lay US in the
shade as horticulurist. He bas-
es his ideas on his success with
prunes and peaches. We are not
at all discouraged however. We
might name some fruit in compar-
ison. We think we have several
kinds of prunes that he cannot ex-
cell. The trees are 80 loaded that
we have to aid them in carrying
the fruit by props to save them
from breaking down. We also
have fine plums just as heavily
loaded, and one, Moore's Arctic,
we are certainly enthusiastic over.
Our peach trees are a little Young
yet but he wants to look out if he
carries all the blue ribbons away
from the fair. I wonder how he
would like to compare cherries?
OF course they are picked and the
money blowed in. We had two 4
year old Ostheimer that bore fifty
pounds each and sold for 7. cents
per pound or 81 ~ 49,, w
Nep. --vvonnt Of two elder Early
Rlchmonds. The product we sold
ior s1S. But we like to be in the
shade, aud especially Of some of
the big Wine Sap trees. OF this
kind we are sure we have more
apples on one roH. than Bro. Bad
ger has on all his premises.
Then we can't spend all our
time in fruits-we have to take in
a line of agriculture. l wonder
how Bro. Badger would like to
buck up against 4G bushels of
wheat to the acre? Take us up
one side and down the other we
do not believe that Bro. d. will be
in the lead for some years to come.

SSSAOc VIZ - AVIAN ssASA = oA 49,
We last week referred to the
Field and Farms most unjust and
uncalled for reflection on Rocky
Ford in relation to the proposed
visit of the National Editorial as
sociation, saying that Rocky Ford
had declined to receive and enter
tain the party. In speaking of
this matter the Fowler Tribune
says:
"We speak authoritatively when
we say that nothing of this char
acter could be inferred from any
of the Arkansas valley papers.
Not only would Rocky Ford,
but every citizen of Otero county,
extend to the Editorial association
the liberties of this great valley,
and why the Field and Farm
should take this method of stab
biug our great industries, when SO
many of our farmers in their long
suffering pay - per year for hav-
ing the news which they read each
week in their local county papers
rehashed, as the Arkansas valley
has been for years productive in
keeping the wolf from the Field
and Farm door, and its attitude
in striving to keep the Editorial
excursion out of the valley will be
regarded as m affront by every
individual between Pueblo aud
the Kansas line, and when it
comes to renewing their subscrip-
tions to this scrapbook will not be
slow to forget it, as the Field and
Farm solicitors will in due time
come to understand. If the pub.

IMPORTANT MINING DECISION.

Washington, May 2S.-The United States supreme court, in two instances, this week, decided the question of the right of the owners of a mineral vein to follow the vein outside of the ter ritory covered by the surface arsa of location, the opinion being Dy Justice Brewer. The first of these cases was that of the Del Monte Mining com pany versus the Last Chance Mining company, the property involved being located in the Sunnyside district, in Mineral county, Colorado. The decis ion was not upon the merits of the case, but was in response to questions certified to the court, from the United States circuit court of appeals of the Eighth circuit, where the case is now pending. There were five of these questions, but only three of them were answered. The first was as follows:
 May any of the lines of junior To- cation be laid within, upon or across the surface of a valid senior location for the purpose of defining or secur- ing to such junior location under ground or extra lateral rights not in conflict with any rights of the senior lOcation?"
 This question was answered in the affirmative.
 If the apex of vein crosses one end line and one side line of a lode min ing claim as located. thereon, can the locator of such a vein follow up its dip beyond the vertical side line of his 1ocation?"
 This was also answered affirmative

Atlanta, Ga. May 2S.-Colonel Vim cente Cortijo, who has attained much celebrity as the brother-in-law of Gen eral Weyler, and Surgeon Isidor Jul ian, with two of the privates who have been confined at Fort McPherson are exchanged for the American newspa- per correspondents.
 Colonel Cortijo took advantage be- fore his departure to express himself most forcibly as to the treatment which he received during his incar- ceration He declared that he and his companions should have been paroled immediately on arrival and allowed the freedom of the fort instead of be- ing treated like felons, and that if the authorities thought it necessary to set guard over them while they were eating, white men, at least, should have been chosen.
 He stated that so far as his obser- vations extended the Americans were an unmannerly nation of people. though the officers immediately over him, he admits, treated him with all possible courtesy
 From the manner in which our in generation was managed" said the colonel, ''the authorities must have imagined we were of the same stripe as the renegade Cubans, who are no better than dogs and cut-throats.

A VAST SPINDLE EXPOSED.

The mystery of the famous South Dakota "tin mine' has at last been solved. The mine in question was good deal talked about in the news papers few years ago. It was said to be very rich. Great promises were made of it's assistance in promoting the industrial welfare of the Black Hills when it should begin to pour its wealth to the surface. Tin mills of the first magnitude were projected in the minds of sanguine spectators to consume it's product The mineral was there in great quantities, it was alleged, and all that was needed to develop it and give all this western country a boom was capital. To se- cure the needed capital negotiations were opened with an English syndi- cate. Englishmen bought the propo- sition. Having got it, why was it not worked? That was the mystery. There were various speculations concerning it. The explanation that seemed to secure the most credence was that the Englishmen who had bought the mine were extensively interested in tin properties elsewhere, that it was to their interest not to increase the pro duction of the metal to the extent that it's operation would do, and that they would make more money by keeping its treasure hidden in the bowels of the earth than by bringing it up to the surface to bring down the price of tin, as it's great abundance threatened to do. The subject dropped out of the public mind. It is now revived and the mystery explained by Charles M. Dobson, a mining engineer, who writes a story about Mine Salting" in the current Cosmopolitan Magazine. Of the Black Hills proposition he says:
 A tin mine in South Dakota not far from Harney peak, was for sale, and English capitalists were Investigating
 Many tons of the finest caSSiterite ore werefGug from the claim. It surpassed in richness the better grades of Corn ish ore A carload was taken to the smelter and proved to be all that could be wished. The property was bought and the money was paid down. Sixty tons of cassiterite were mined anG Hot an ounce more, fer the whole sixty tons had been bought, selected Cornish ore, then shipped to the lone ly spot, dumped into the gulch and covered up some five years before"
 This, the expert declares, was the most gigantic case of mine salting on record The English investors appear to have quietly charged their loss up to the account Of experience. The transaction is a very complete expfa- nation of the mystery why the mine was not worked The owners were worked instead.-Sioux City Journal.
