Election Of a Deleqate.

AS the time approaches for the open.
ing of the campaign, the papers of the
territory are paying more and more at
tention to the selection of the territorial
delegate to congress. The subject is be-
ing discussed thoroughly and the con-
sensus of opinion seems to be that the
best interests of New Mexico demand
that a Republican be elected to that
position this fall. The San Marcial Bee,
in discussing the subject, presents rea-
sons for sending a Republican to Wash
ington as a delegate, in the following
sensible way:
No one can doubt the ACCESSIBILITY OF
sending a Republican to the next con.
gress. 1t will be again Republican, the
senate will be Republican, and with Nc.
Kinley as president, how much show
will a Democrat have of doing anything
for the territory? His intentions may
be ever so good, but the ''powers that
be- are against him, and his hands are
tied. Both parties in the past have at
times made the mistake of sending rep
resentatives to congress who were not in
sympathy with the administration, and
the result has invariably been seen in
the failures they have made to procure
the legislation asked for by the constitu-
ents. The territory has been clamoring
for statehood for the past quarter of a
century, and it will clamor for another
quarter If it continues to send men to
congress who represent principles an
%tagonistic to the administration in
power. 1t may be said that Mr.. Fer
gusson succeeded in passing some meas
ures through congress, but show us one
of any political significance that he
passed, and we will take back our
statement. He promised to procure for
us statehood, and introduced a bill for
that purpose on the first day of the ses-
sion, but 1t has not been heard of from
that day to this. So long as Tom Reed
and William Mckinley occupy Their
present respective positions, it will be
folly to send a Democratic representa-,
tive to congress from this territory.

Didn't Want to Be Left.

II understand hat just before Walter
Brown left for the war you promised to
marry him."
"That's true" admitted the beauti-
full girl.
"And that the following day when
Tom Smith was starting with the naval
militia you also became engaged to
him."
"Quite right" admitted the beauti-
full girl.
"And that you accepted an engage
ment ring from Harry Jones just before
he left in answer to the second call for
troops"
"That is correct"
"Id like to know how you reconcile
such actions with your conscience"
"My conscience, exclaimed the beau
tiful girl. "Why, it was my conscience
that drove me to it. Any girl who
wouldn't do what she could to make the
defenders of her country happy isn't a
patriot, and besides
"Well?"
"Don't you suppose I want to have
enough so as to make sure that some one
Of them will come back to marry me?"

Omaha Bee.)
When visitors to the exposition visit
the Mines building and gaze upon the
mineral display made by New Mexico,
some of them have an idea that the ter
ritory is showing nothing but ores and
precious stones. This is where they are
mistaken, for over in the Agricultural
building New Mexico has one of the
finest agricultural exhibits hat is to be
found. While the space is not so great
as that occupied by some of the states,
it is filled with exhibits that attract a
great deal of notice. Most of the prod
ucts displayed come from the Pecos val
ley. New Mexico does not depend upon
rain for crop raising, but instead irri-
gates from the numerous rivers and
streams. This gives them the advan-
tage of having water just when they
need it to mature their crops.
The New Mexican exhibit contains
specimens of all the small and coarse
grains, grasses and feed plants, together
with vegetables of all kinds and fruits
of all varieties. In appearance the
fruit, which is in cans, is equal to that
of California, while the grain and vege-
tables are superior to those raised in
many of the northern states.
One feature of the exhibit from New
Mexico is a pair of cacti that are in pots.
These huge plants stand three feet high
and measure IS inches across.

Old Time IlluminAtiOns.

Lightning of every description, " said
the middle aged man, sis brighter, more
brilliant and more striking now than ever
before, but there was in vogue, say, so
years g a method Of illumination for
purposes of celebration that it seems to me
was more picturesque than any n Of the
methods that have supplanted 1t. I refer
to the illumination Of houses by placing
candles in the windows.
windows in those days were not made
as they are commonly nowadays, with one
or two lights, but they were made with
six or nine lights Of glass to a sash, 30 a
window had usually II Or IS panes of
glass. Candles were placed at the win
dows, one at each pane, In holders special
ly made for the use, a little triangular
piece of tin with a short socket soldered
upon it. This holder was held in place
simply by crowding the sharp corner Of 1t
into the sash below the glass. The candles
were not lighted until the approach Of the
procession.
"A house front with q light twinkling
at every pane of every window vas a pic
turesque sight indeed, and q whole street
of houses thus illuminated made a fairy
spectacle. New York Sun.

The fruit growers and vegetable rails

realize the benefits to be derived from
making displays Of the products of their
orchards and gardens at the Territorial
Horticultural fair held in Santa Fe.

last year, and nothing in the line Of a

both in the territory and abroad, that

The Business Mems Association, of
Pueblo, is arranging for an excursion to
New Mexico in the early part of Sep
TENDER. The object in view is the form
ing of closer business relations between
the Centennial state and the great ter.
ritory which lies to the south, and the
extension of Pueblo's wholesale trade.
1t is thought that rs of the most promi
nent citizens of Pueblo will visit the
different cities and towns, the trip be-
ing made in a special train, thus allow.
ing stops at all business points. The
Pueblo business men will be royalty

will all return home fully determined to

One of the pleasant features of last
years fair was the social part. The
citizens of Santa Fe Wed with one an
other in furnishing entertainment for
the numerous visitors, and the success
of their efforts in that particular added
to the enjoyment of the three days in
which the display was open. 1t is the
intention to exceed last years fair in
every way. Nothing will be left UNI
done by the management and the citi-
zens of the city, that will add to the com
fort and pleasure of visitors, and no
other gathering in the territory will
offer as many attractions to those who
wish to take a pleasure trip.

Unfair Methods OF Germany.

Consul Warner, at Leipsic, has writ
ten to the State department at Wash
ington. giving in detail the methods
adopted by the Germans to create preju-
dice against American pork. Inspec-
ton fees and duties are so heavy that
the dealers find it difficult to handle
hog products imported from the United
States, and the business is hedged
around with such restrictions that the
consumer is made to believe that in
buying American pork he is getting an
inferior article of food, dangerous to
both health and life. These measures
are adopted under the guise of protect
ing the consumer from disease, but the
real reason is to protect the German
farmers from the competition of cheaper
pork brought from this country.
The free trade papers in the United
States from this incident, are pointing
a moral to pro%tectionists of the in
furious effects upon American trade in
foreign lands resulting from a protec-
tive tariff, which is rather far fetched.
In place of arguing against protection,
the attitude of Germany in regard to
American meats and fruits emphasizes
the necessity of protecting American
industries. By reason of cheaper lands
and more prolific crops, the American
farmer is able to produce and market
farm products, including meats, cheaper
than the German agriculturist, and in
order to protect her W people from
outside and cheap competition, r%estric-
tions are placed on those products from
this country. By reason of cheaper
labor, the English, German and French
manufacturers are enabled to place in
the American markets manufactured
articles at less prices than the people of
the United States can make the same
article.
Without a protective tariff the Amer
lean markets would be supplied with
foreign made goods to the exclusion of
home products. Protection is a benefit,
not only to America, but all other
countries which have adopted the prin-
ciple. Germany is doing this country
an injustice, not in protecting her own
people against competition which they
can not meet, but in the manner in
which it is done.
Germany, in her endeavor to retain
the home markets for home products, is
not content with levying a tariff for
that purpose, but seeks to impress the
purchaser with the idea that American
food products are not fit for human con-
sumption. A manner of dealing with
both seller and purchaser which is dis
honest and calculated to prejudice other
countries against American products.
There is where the injustice comes in.
If Germany does not desire to have
American pork and fruit sold in her
markets she has a right to place a tariff
on them so high that it would make it
impossible for either the importer or
exporter to ship to Germany, or if that
fails to accomplish the purpose, forbid
their importation entirely, giving the
true reason for SO doing.
Americans have no reason for feeling
aggrieved at Germany for protecting
her own people. but the manner in
it is done is what calls for a
