Missouri and Iowa will require double
the number taken during 1897. The New
England demand has not been as great
as was expected earlier in the year, but
that falling off has not been sufficient to
affect the market, because of the reluc-
lance of sheep raisers to sell.
The prospects for good range and feed
the coming winter in New Mexico were
never better. This fact makes sheep
men less anxious to sell, and the greater
number will hold their lambs until next
spring. With a fair winter the flock
masters can cut from so to rs cents
worth Of wool from each lamb in the
spring and still get as much or more for
the animal as this fall, with very little
additional expense for carrying them
through. All through the territory the
tendency is toward high prices, but eff
forts to further advance are invariably
followed by a dropping off in sales,
which is evidently what the owners de-
sire, in order to increase the flocks in
size next year. Stock men are in good
shape financially and nearly all sections
report the utmost confidence In the sit
uation and the ability to meet the WIN
ter without fear, no matter how severe
it may be.

~triously at work trying to prove that the
American working people "are the poor
est paid of any commercial nation in the
world" In order to do this the mislead-
ing percentage dodge is resorted to, and
from figures furnished by statisticians
it is shown hat the Americans carr the
smallest per cent of the amount of their
output, while the Austrians carr the
largest.
So far as the percentage dodge goes the
figures, perhaps, are correct, but the
facts are perverted and the wrong i'm
pressions are given. The American
workman on an average produces $3.50
worth of marketable goods and earns
s347; the Austrian workman produces
S4OO in goods and earns $50 per year.
Those are the two extremes of produc-
ton and wages, and the free trader ar

Bile of producing more than four times
as many goods for the market and earns
more than twice as much as the Aus
trian, hal the former is not as well
paid as the latter. The figures given to
prove this assertion are: Per cent of
earnings Of the American. 1874; per cent
of the earnings Of the Austrian. 1866. All

achieved such a remarkable showing In
reducing the Americans to the ranks OF
the lowest paid workman in all the COM
mercial nations, failed to note several
very important factors entering into the
question. The Austrian workman labors
from IL to IA hours a day to produce his
average of $400 worth of merchandise in
a year, and earns $3.50. The American
workman spends from eight to ten hours
a day at his bench or machine and con-
trives to produce 81, $50 in salable goods
and earns $347 a year. The American
works less hours, produces more goods
and earns more money than the Aus

Austrian would gladly change places.
The ability of the American workman,

out a larger amount of finished product,
while he may not make as large a per-
centage showing, enables him to earn
more money, live better, dress better
and give his children better. educations

that the tariff is lowered and the mar

lands which are made by men only earn

American must be reduced to meet a
condition for which there is neither
place nor need In the United States.

Among some of the results of the
.Anerican-Spanish war are the fol-
lowing: First, sectionalism has been
destroyed: second, our relations with
Great Britain have been improved;
third. it has been demonstrated
that the peace this country has enjoyed
for 30 years has not destroyed devotion
to the flag or patriotism or soldierly
spirit; fourth, this country has been
placed among the foremost nations Of
the earth. Great country this, to be
sure, and what a fortunate occurrence
it was that William Mckinley was
elected president of the United States
in November, 1896!

Senator Hanna is undoubtedly the
most wicked man in the United States,
to hear the Democrats tell the tale. The
latest charge of iniquity comes from
Washington in the shape of a cock and
bull story that Chairman Babcock, of
the Republican congressional commit
tee, had informed President Mckinley
and Mr.. Hanna that the battle was lost
before the first gun was ready to shoot,
and that the next house of representa-
tives would be Democratic. On receiv-
ing this information ~ Mr.. Hanna at
once said the only way to prevent de-
feat was to raise a ''slush fund of ST.
900, 000' and elect Republican members
Of congress anyway. With that state
ment in view, the public may expect to
hear the old cry Of stop thief" raised
on every hand through the campaign.

The Course. Of the New Mexican in San Miguel
County Matters.

Some of our Democratic contempora-
ries are just a 'leetel bit" mistaken
about the position of the New Mexican
in San Miguel county matters. This
journal has no fight on the paper pub
lished in Las Vegas. 1t has more i'm
a continental red cent about the men
who hold county office in that county.
What it is doing, however, can plainly
be read and understood by those who
so to do. This paper is making a
fight on official corruption and malfea-
sance existing in official circles and in
county government in that county. 1t is
making a fight for the honest and fair
collection of taxes and a proper ac-
counting for the same. 1t could publish
some truths about the defenders of the
San Miguel county officials and ex-of1i-
Gals that would make peoples hair
stand on end like quilts upon the fretful
porcupine. But 1t has nothing to dc
with the gang as far as that Is concern
u L. 1t" 'ktA otihNAoi AiAioiitetio5N
ment and official law breaking in San
Miguel county. 1t proposes to deal with
that phase of the question and that
phase only. The charges made are sus-
tanned by the records of the county. 1t
will be shown whether or not there is
any law in New Mexico that can reach
offending or derelict or dishonest and
defaulting county officials and collect
ors. If the law is not strong enough in
that direction 1t will be made so very
soon; but this paper will make this
good fight and will win. regardless of
yelps, abuse and SANDER by men or pa
pers who are political or personal
friends OF the officials charged with
malfeasance in Office in that county.

The Union party gang in San Miguel
county is none too we'll pleased with the
political outlook this election. There is
an able, upright and fearless Judge on
the bench in that district and they have
no hope of help from the bench, such as
they received under the late unlamented
Cleveland administration. They appre-
bend that there is danger in playing at
their usual game Of committing election
frauds this time hence they are I'M
happy.
