New Mexico Volunteers at La Quasina.

Major General Joseph Wheeler, in his
official report of the engagement at La
Quasina. June 23rd last, says as follows
of the eight troops of the list U. 5. d.
unteer cavalry engaged in that action:
"Col. Woods regiment was on the eN-
IRENE left of the city and too lar dislale
from me to be a personal witness OF 1he
individual conduct of the officers ana

Inv the regiment under the lead OF Col.

and the energy and determination OF
his officers. which has been marked
from the moment he reported to me at

| of his brave and good conduct on the

| sideration of the government. l mus
RELY upon his report to do justice to his
| officers and men. | desire personally &c
| add that all that I have said regardlns
Col. Wood applies equally to Lieut.. ooi'
Roosevelt"
II cannot state positively as to the size
of the Spanish force which we engaged
or the extent of their casualties, turthel
than that the force was much create
than ours and the information | a
would Indicate that their killed ant
wounded exceeded those OF our troops
but our estimate on this can only D
verified when we have access to the re
norts of the Spanish commanders. In
engagement inspired III troops an
must have had a bad effect upon tn
spirits of the Spaniards. 1t also CAV
our army the beautiful and we'll wal
cred country in which we have estat
lished our encampments. 1t has ais
!, given us a full view of Santiago n tn
Surrounding country and has enabled u
to %reconnoiter close to the fortlhcatlor
of that place.
The casualties in the ~engagemel
were: ,

Justice for New Mexico Volunteers.

seventy-iive more recruits, IN aool''on
to the 100 men now being recruited, are
wanted for the 1st U. S. volunteer cav
airy, of which eight troops are no" IN
front of Santiago de Cuba. Ii this num-
Der should be furnished the regiment
will have drawn from this territory 500
men. 1t is not apparent that Arizona
Oklahoma or the Indian Territory have
been called upon for more volunteers
| than originally furnished. New Mexico
therefore, it appears, will furnish much
more than its regular quota under the
presidents first call. This is very graft
fying and complimentary indeed, but ~
territory should receive full credit for
this patriotic course. Among other
things, it would be but fair and just that
more commissioned officers be appointed
from New Mexico and in such number
as to keep pace with the ratio OF enlisted
men from the territory. The number
of commissioned officers from New Mex
leo now in the regiment is not in proper
proportion compared with the number
of enlisted men. More commissioned
officers from New Mexico should be
chosen to fill vacancies and what is more
!, they ought to be taken from the ranks
of the men now in active service in Cuba
who are gallantly and bravely lighting
for flag and country and enduring untolt
hardships and privations. These mel
are entitled to recognition and promo
ton and should be accorded such a
soon as vacancies among commissions
officers occur.
q There are many brave and intelllgen
men now among u volunteers in tn
8 field. who are competent and lit for CON
a missions, just as much, if not more, tina
I some of the volunteers from New Yor
: or from Texas who joined the regimen
Y Let justice be done in this matter
that is all that is asked. New Mexic
can and will furnish all the volunteer
h the federal government may call &c
from within it's confines, but this course
j. on behalf of this territory, should be al
preciated and recognized by the admir-
v istration and promotion from the rant

The next thing in order is to recruit
the battalion of the territorial volunteer
infantry regiment to be furnished by
this territory. Governor Otero has
started in energetically to accomplish
this and the captains named for-the sew
cral companies are hard at work re-
cruiting. Tt is believed that within ten
days the companies, to number 424 en-
listed men and ~ commissioned officers
will be sworn and mustered in and
ready to be sent to Whipple Barracks,
the regimental rendezvous. In the com
pany to be recruited here there will be
from 80 to 40 young men, natives OF thl:
county and of Spanish descent. TIT
good work is going on well.

MINING AND MILLS
Last Weeks Production OF Ore in
Excess of Any Previous Week
for 1898.
CHEAP POWER In MOG0LL0NS
Items of General Interest to the Mining
and Investing Public Cleaned
from Various Territorial
Points.

A great many people in New Mexico
are prone to regard the mining industry
of the territory as a secondary con-
sideration, but a glance over the notes
cleaned from the current events OF the
past week in mining circles, Will con-
vince the most skeptical that the min
ing industry is no lone horse" at1alf,
but a substantial, wealth producing
business of the highest order. New
mills are being introduced with success
in various localities and the ''steady'
production is increasing with regularity.
from the developed properties. The
past week has shown a greater output
than any preceding week during 1898.
The successful attempt of the Helen
| Mining company to generate electricity
from water power for general use in the
Moyollons is most important, and theil
operations will be watched with interest
for the system is destined to become
generally adopted ere long, and thus the
cost of operating the mines and re
ducing the ores will be greatly cur
tailed.

A Prosperous Nation.

If will be remembered that at the time
war was declared the financiers of note
in the country were very much distressed
over the financial ruin which threat
cned to overwhelm all business inter-
ests. and that wiseacres p%rophesied that
money would go into such close retire.
ment that the sight of a IS bill would
cause a riot. At first things financially
did assume a doleful aspect, interest
| rates advanced and borrowers were
| compelled to make sacrifices in order to
| protect their credit, but that condition
did not last long.
Bradstreets latest commercial report
throws an entirely new light on the
, situation, and refutes all charges OF
stagnation in business. According 10
the report in the single state of New
York. 1890 new manufacturing con-
Germs started in business during the
first six months of the present year, ana
1850 concerns which had been CLOSED
for lack of contracts, have resumed
operations. Comparing this years re-
port with that of 1897, it is found thai
nearly 40,0 0 more persons are EN-
: ployed in various occupations thar
there were at work last year. These
| conditions, with slight notifications
, apply to practically every industrial
: center in the country with, perhaps
f one exception, that being New Eng
land. where depression is attributed II
n unsatisfactory conditions in the textil
s industry.
81 Undoubtedly the manner in which tn
new government bond issue has bee
taken up is the best indication OF TN
condition of the people generally. Th
is Treasury department reports that $4o
IA 600 900 in subscriptions to the loan l
rs sums of $500 and less have been re
l. ceived and accepted. That enormou
L: amount of money is being invested b
& the very people who have been wei
1t over by the p%essimistic reformers as tn
IL most down-trodden classes in the land
- the farmers. small tradesmen n thru
ty mechanics. The total of the appl
cations for the VAR bonds amounts
Vi $500. 900. 900. From these figures 1t
~ safe to infer that there is an abundant
&c of money in the United States, and al:
he that it is not in the hands OF the re
~ very wealthy individuals.
,is 1t is true that there are many poo
to and many who are abjectly poor, IN u

20 number of those who have for sol
