CONCLUSION.

desire to impress upon tho mem
hcrs Of the General Assembly tho ne.
cessity for the strctcst economy in
the appropriation of public moneys
While unnecessary and excessive up.
preparations of public money should
be avoided at all times, and tho
strctcst economy consistent with
good administration in every branch
of the public service should bo at all
times enforced, there is at thus time
a special reason why this principlc
should be carefully applied. The
people have endured long period OF
business depression, but tho present
low prico of cotton, our principal
money crop, has caused still groatcr

.,PKINLEY on CONFEDERATE
GRAVES.

In his speech at Atlanta Presi-
dent Mckinley said Every SOL
dier's grave made during the civil
war is tribute TO American valor
And while when those graves were
made We differed widely about the
future Of this government, those
differences were long ago settled
by the arbitrament Of arms, and
the time has now come in the eyo-
luton Of sentiment and feeling,
under the providence ofGod, when
in the spirit Of fraternity we should
share with you in the care OF the
graves Of the Confederate soldiers"
These words were spoken before
typical southern audience and
their effect was electrical. The
dispatches say that "A "lId eCh"hg
and re-echoing cheer went up from
every throat and old men who
fought for the south rose from
their seats and waved their hats.
The sentiment il a beautiful one
and worthy Of the executive Of a
great united commonwealth in
whose defense the sons and grand
sons Of those who wore the gray
and those who wore the blue, az
well as many Of the grizrled yeter'
ans themselves, lately met and
mingled in the yanquishment Of a
common foe.

Mecca Of the Farmer and Fruit Grower.

That New Mexico offers superior in
ducements to fruit growers is past gain
saying. There are thousands of acres
of land lying idle that is susceptible of
being utilized for fruit growing pur-
poses that is now considered arid and
valueless. This land can be irrigated
for much less than it costs to place a
good fruit growing section in proper
condition in Colorado, and the element
of chance is much less.
Near Grand junction, the banner
fruit growing region of Colorado, frosts
recently killed the crops. In California,
frost, hail drouths. effected similar re-
suits.
Reports throughout New Mexico show
that peaches, pears. plums, grapes, etc,
will show a fine crop, while apples and
late fruit will give greater results than
the fruit grower anticipated.
The same conditions apply to other
products of earth. In the San Joaquin
and Sacramento valleys, California,
drouths have killed the wheat crop and
it is doubtful If there will be enough
wheat for seed. Complaints Of similar
character come from various sections of
| the west.
New Mexico is exceedingly fortunate
in this respect, and farmers from all
sections report a greater acreage and
better crop conditions than cver before.
Sufficient rain has fallen to give supe-
rior results. and ranchmen in general
are jubilant over the prospects.
There is no place in the world where
a man can get q start quicker-if he is
not too lazy to ~work-than in New Mex
leo; and the doors are open to home.
seekers looking for opportunities for adj
vancement. Verify, this is the mecca

The Pecos River Reserve.

The extension of the Pecos river re-
serve in Santa Fc, San Miguel and Mora
counties recently by executive order
will prove a great, good thing. 1t will
protect the water flow of a vast area of
country and will increase and equalize
the water supply in the many streams of
that region. There is still a good deal
of fine timber in the area embraced by
the reserve which will be saved from the
hands Of the vandals and spectators who
cut timber on government lands without
rhyme or reason and without the least
regard or shame. During his visit in
Washington last. December, Governor
Otero laid the matter of the necessity of
an increase of this reserve before the
department of the interior and the presi-
dent and upon his recommendation the
extension of the Pecos river reserve was
made from about 300, 600 acres to 45O, 900.
But one necessary thing remains to be
done and that is the appointment of an
agent to take charge Of the reservation,
to keep trespassers and timber thieves
of, prosecute such, look after the pre-
vention or extlnguishment of forest fires
and have charge of all matters connect
cd with the reserve and to carry out the
purposes for which It was created.
