A SINGULAR War.

The wal with Spain was one of sin
gular and comic situations. Until the
United States troops were set out to in
wade Puerto Rico, presumably no army of
invasion ever went into an enemy's coun-
try bearing letters of introduction to the
principal people of the land to be con-
quered. And it Is not a common occur
renee for the commanding officer of an
invading army to make a requisition
on the home government for a supply
of flags for the conquered to display in
honor of being annexed.
At Santiago the scene has been no less
remarkable. At one wharf in the har-
Dor Spanish ships bearing Spanish
prisoners of war to their homes, gave
place in regular and friendly alterna-
ton to American ships bearing to a
healthier climate the American soldiers
who made the Spaniards prisoners.
And the United States bears the ex-
penses Of both shipments. There is no
doubt that the troops of both nations
quit that pesthole, that scene of brave
lighting, OF triumph and of defeat,
with unaffected and probably tumul.
tuous Joy.
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1898-08-15

At Manila the scenes have been
equally as theatrical. Admiral Dewey's
diplomatic hnstling of German warships
in the Subic bay, the high jinks cut by
Aguinaldo, and the disgust of the Span
ish officers over the failure of the ar
rival of promised re-enforcements, furn-
ish the material for u comic opera of
great drawing powers and side-splltting
qualities.
While the wal has been an expensive
n to this country, and has cost many
lives, the many singular happenings,
such as sinking a powerful fleet with no
other damage to the victorious vessels
than six men slightly wounded, the in
habitants of an invaded island strewing
flowers along the line of march OF the
invaders, and other events of a like
nature will give it a place in the world
as one of the merited triumphs of a civil
lied nation over one that is inhuman
in it's treatment of subjects.

One of the pressing needs of the terri
tory at the present time is the election
of county commissioners and tax col
lectors who will enforce the revenue
laws impartially and honestly. Under
the present system the property owner
who refuses to pay taxes for several
years and then goes before the board Of
county commissioners and secures a re-
bate of from 25 to so per cent has a
great advantage over the taxpayer
who is prompt in paying his obligations
for the support of the commonwealth.
The fact of the matter is, that If there
is any discrimination to be shown the
person who walks into the collect
or's Office and pays his taxes when they
are due, should be favored. The day
for placing a premium on tax lodging
has passed. ,

Roosevelt's Mistake.
ATLANTA Journal

That Colonel Roosevelt made a mis-
take when he wrote to Secretary Alger
to exalt the Rough Riders" at the eX-
pense of all the other volunteers in our
army, does not admit of a doubt.
He might have praised his own regi-
ment in the highest terms and every
body would have endorsed his tribute,
but when he declares they are three
times as good as any other volunteers,
he makes a reckless and utterly I'M
justifiable statement. Colonel Roose-
welt has seen only a small part of our
volunteer troops in action. He has no
means of forming a judgment as to
what they would do. The only fair pre-
sumption is that they would bear them
selves like men.
But in the battle where the ''Rough
Riders" did such gallant fighting Col
onel Roosevelt did see other volunteers
who fought quite as well as his own
regiment. The End Massachusetts, ex-
hibited these soldierly qualities quite as
high as those Of the "Rough Riders"
One of Colonel Roosevelt's own men
has r%epudiated the colonel's invidions
comparison in very emphatic language.
Corporal Hartman Wynkoop, of Santa
Fe, N. M, who was one of the first vol
unteers for the regiment Of Rough
Riders" and vas sworn in by Roose-
welt, says of the latter's letter to Secre-
tary Alger:
That's enough for me. The colonel
and l are quits. The man that says
that those fellows of the end Massachu-
sets could be discounted at fighting by
any other soldiers, Rough Riders or
regulars, don't 60 with me. l don't
know anything over this squabble over
the list and l don't care to know. But
I did see those dead and wounded boys
from Massachusetts, and l saw SOM OF
them fight. II there was any better
fighting done, l didn't see it, and ]
wouldn't a wanted to. 1t would a-been
tco hot for me-"
We submit that Corporal Wynkoop in
this matter has shown more Of the true
soldierly spirit than his colonel. He has
certainly displayed greater liberality Of
opinion and more of that excellent thing
called common sense.
Colonel Roosevelt is all in all an ad
mirable man, and has done so many
good things that his break in this In
stance is all the more deplorable, be
cause 1t was so little to be expected o.
him.

RATHlNG SUIT,

found entirely satisfactory. 1t must be
made without a lining, of course, and
may be prettily shirred and gathered. A
silk underdress is not ut all requisite and
adds much to the heat of the costume, be-
meath which a pretty muslin petticoat and
corset cover will have an equally good Of
feet. OF course such a gown can only be
worn in the house, as transparent COS
TUNES are in the worst taste for the street,
even in the country. These dresses Of cot
ton net are cooler than those of silk, which
require silk beneath and have the add
tional advantage of laundering to perfec-
ton.
The bathing suit illustrated Is OF white
serge. The trousers are plain, and the skirt
is edged with three bands of red braid.
Red braid and anchors decorate the tunic,
which is full and has a girdle of red silk.
The short pulled sleeves are gathered into
a cuff. A white cap and white shoes are
worn. JUDO CHOLLET.

The signing of the protocol was the
signal for a wonderful revival in bust
ness. Capital will now be released from
its strong boxes and business enterprises
which have been tagging for want OF
necessary means to prosecute opera
tions will be enabled to extend their
scope and enter new fields of enterprise.
With the improvement of conditions will
come a greater demand for labor, wages
will advance, consumption of farm prod
ucts will increase, prices of commodities
will rise with the rise of the wage scale
and an era of prosperity will come to the
country never before known. Initiation
based upon sound money will result
from the conclusion of peace, and that
manner of imitation is what the people
have been waiting for.

The Wool Situation.

The future for the American wool
grower is growing brighter and brighter.
Under the action of the Dingley tariff
law the imports of all classes of manu-
featured wooden goods show an enor-
nous decline, so much so in fact that
foreign competition has failed to create
any apprehension in American textile
circles.
During the last year the Wilson tariff
measure was in operation the imports OF
wooden goods reached the sum
of $40, 1862, 992, which drove WOODEN man.
ufacturers to despair and threatened
the decentralization of the industry. The
fiscal year just closed, however, wrought
a great change, the total imports being
less than SIS, 900, 900. This includes, of
course, more than So, 200, 900 worth of
merchandise under this class that was
imported during the earlier part of July,
1897, when the Wilson tariff law was
still in force. This sum is included in
the totals for the year 1898. Deducting
the 3 1000, 900, for which the present
administration cannot be justly held re-
| sponsible, the imports of wooden manu-
facturers for 1898 represent about one
fifth of what they amounted to in the
year preceding. In other words, this
decrease represents a market for APP
proximately $35, 900, 900 worth of wooden
manufactures that was not available
during the year 1896.
The importations of foreign wool have
declined in even a greater degree than
| those of manufactured woolens. For
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1897, the
wool imported amounted to 40o, 900 900
pounds; for the year ending June 80,
1898, the imports were 1875 900, 900
pounds, a decline of 265 900, 900 pounds.
These figures show beyond a doubt that
more American wooden goods and more
American wool will be used during the
coming year, and so long as the present
tariff law is in force, than ever before.
The decrease of i~mportations of wool
and wooden manufactures must result
in greater activity in American fac
tories, a greater demand for American
wool. and a consequent rise in price to
the American fockmaster. To the ter.
ritory of New Mexico this change in the
wool situation means greater prosperity.
Flocks will be multiplied, the amount
of wool shipped to the eastern markets
increased, and the stock of ready money
in every town in the territory will be
largely augmented.
During the wal with Spain there was
little if any sale for wool, but, although
peace is only three days old, a decidedly
stronger tone is to be noticed in the
wool market. Inquiries for western
wool are already being made and the up
ward tendency in prices is unmistakable
New Mexico sheep men, from all indi
cations, are promised better times thar
they have known for many years past.

A JUDGMENT of Solomon.

A story Is told of admiral Sicard when
at Yorktown with his fleet for drills and
maneuvers. A force was to land and cap
ture an inland railroad base against Il de-
Tense force of little more than half its size.
The two commanders Of these forces were
discussing before the admiral the details,
and each contended that the other would
have superior advantages. The admiral,
after puzzling over how the differences
might be adjusted, finally said:
"Gentlemen, it Is evident that the mat.
ter can be reconciled in only IL way.
Suppose you swap forces and fight the 9th.
or way"
The battle was fought on the original
plan.-New York Tribune.
