BUSINESS INTERESTS BOOMING.
Secretary Gibson, of a Prominent Cleveland
Concern, Gives Promising Assurances
Of Good Times Throughout
the Union

uU6 Uuluui
John Rock and A. r. Gibson, promi-
nent business men of Cleveland, O., are
registered at the Palace for a few days
while on mining business in this city.
Mr.. Gibson is a Democrat, but he says
the Bryan movement is dying out in
Ohio, and that what Thomas Mast carl
catured as "The Ohio Idea" no longer
obtains. At the last Democratic con-
~vention the silver element had the up
per hand, but they cannot do it again.
MI. Gibson says that while Carnegie
may have been in thepast a good enough
Republican, and has given a great deal
of money to the Republican cause, he is
now hand-in-glove with Bryan, and
would not be surprised to see the great
iron man give $10,0 600 towards pushing
Mr.. Bryan and his following to the
front.
All through the country where Mr..
Gibson has gone, he has noted a Won
derful revival of trade. He was in New
York not long ago, and noticed that the
idle hordes of men that in years past
have been so prominent there, are no
longer idle. They are all at work.
There is now no excuse for any man in
this country to remain idle, for there is
work for every one to do. The iron trade
in particular is experiencing a wonder
full boom. All the mills of the country
| hD va 111nIa pJ1pIs than thnU aor banda
and are not only working over time, but
many are working all night as well as
all day. There is a call for rails every
where, both for steam and for street
growing demand for copper, and the
business interests dependent upon cop
per supplies are giving the mining peo-
pie plenty to do.
In Mr.. Gibson's belief, a large and i'm
portant factor in this commercial
growth throughout the country is the
expansion of American territory. He
believes in holding on to the new pos
sessions, and says that is the prevailing
| sentiment in his part of the country.
Mr.. Gibson is secretary Of the .Cleve-
land, Medina & Southern Electric Rail
way Company, and his business inter-
ests are SO extensive in the Buckeye
state that he is pretty apt to size up
the commercial situation correctly. He
and Mr.. Rock may be a month in the
territory looking Over the different min
ing properties, and their influence is
such at home that favorable reports
will be apt to bring considerable Ohio
men of this territory should give them
every attention and facility for getting
information relative to the wonderful
natural of New Mexico.

this next spring by cutting a new chan
mel for the river a mile below the city
through a go%ose-neck of land in Mexico,
which will let out the flood waters be.
