1000, 900 ACRES LAND
FOR NEW MEXICO.
Bill in An Advanced Stage of Legislation
Senate Committee Reports 1t
Favorably.
Denver News

The senate committee on public lands
has decided to make a favorable report
upon the Jones bill, giving New Mexico
900, 900 acres OF public land for her in
situations. This bill is an exact duplicate
of the Ferguson bill as amendediby the
house committee on public lands. 1t
| will be seen, therefore, that the bill has
reached an advanced legislative stage.
Ii it car pass the houses it is practically
assured that the senate will act favorably
upon it. Delegate FERGUSON had inter-
views this week with Speaker Reed, and
%endeavored to secure a promise of recog-
milton of the bill. He reminded the
speaker that this measure was in lieu of
a statehood proposition, and that it
only gave New Mexico what congress
has always cheerfully given the states
upon admission. The speaker said he
was fearful that it. might set a bad
precedent and that the other territories
would follow with a similar demand.
He regarded it as too important legisla-
ton to be disposed of by unanimous
consent, and thought it would be best
to let it come up regularly under the
call of committees. This involves such
delay that the delegate renewed his
appeal for permission to ask unanimous
consent for consideration. The speaker
has not yet given him a final answer.

The Coal Oil Inspection Law.

The Ell Paso Times is still worrying
over the coal oil inspection law in New
Mexico, and insists that it is this law
which makes the price of coal oil so
much higher in New Mexico than it is
in Ell Paso. The Times is anxious to
have the Liberal interview the mer-
chants in Lordsburg to find out if it, the
Times, is not right. The Liberal had
investigated the matter fully before it
commented on the Times original ar
ticle, and for its benefit will say, that for
many years before this law went into
effect the price of coal oil in the terri
tory was much higher than it was in Ell
Paso; that the reason of this was the
freight rates; that the cost of having
coal oil inspected is but / cent a gallon,
and it makes no difference to the con-
sumers whether the inspector tests the
oil in a five gallon can, a so gallon bar
rel, or a tank car, the price per gallon is
the same. 1t will take more than the
say of the Times, ever if it is backed up
by the wisdom of the Roswell Register,
to make a merchant in New Mexico be-
lieve that an inspection fee of 1 cent a
gallon can be used by the Continental
Oil company to double the price of oil.
The oil inspector is required to 60 to
any place in the territory and inspect
any amount of oil.-Lordsburg Liberal.

1t is hardly within the province of a

to extend the glory of America and add

sprung greater things and better con-
ditions. The present will be no excep-

Getting Along Well For a Home Concern.

The Santa Fe Fruit company, which
is the name of the canning and evap-
Grating company, has certainly com
menced its business career in an auspi-
cious manner Looking to its future
operations, the most important point
was to get a permanent location where
the tracks of both railroad systems could
be run into it's grounds and thus save
all expenses of local transportation

pieces of land so situated are very few.
These lots belong to a half dozen men,

property of this kind is that which

new enterprise the most eligible situa-

good business management which is ali
excellent omen of future success.

Far Reaching Results.

While it is true that the eyes of Eu-
ropean nations are fixed upon the war
between this country and Spain with
manifest interest as to the time required
to bring about a result that was known
at the beginning of the struggle, yet
much more interest is taken in the eff
fects it will have upon the United States
as a nation, and the American people as
individuals. And there is some cause
for apprehension on the part of foreign
powers, not that this government will
begin a war of conquest in the east as
a direct outcome of the capture of the
| Philippine islands. but in a commercial
way.
1t would be folly to assume that any
nation can wage a war for any
cause without that war bringing about
| changes in national life and character
istics which could not be foreseen or
which, at the time the war was begun.
seemed almost impossible and highly
improbable. History making is pretty
much the same in every age, and the
past of all countries is filled with either
progression or retrogression as the re-
suit of armed conflicts with neighbor-
ing or foreign countries. After every
trial of strength made by the United
| States has come an era of new ideas
to the people; new enterprises have
been entered into; new lands have been
settled and converted into states, and
the energy Of the citizens expanded in
%conquering a wilderness. The wilds of
the west have been subdued, the 'front.'
Ter pushed into the Pacific and for some
years past the restless, rushing crowds
of investors and homeseekers have
largely contented themselves within the
boundaries of their own land.
The present war will change all this.
The expansion of the in navy to a suffi-
Gent force to protect American interests
in all parts of the world will open up new
avenues for the outlet of trade and the
employment of capital, ideas of other
countries will be brOadened, and there
will be a rush for the markets of the
world by the manufacturers of this
country which will all but %monopolize
them. The indomitable enterprise of
the yankees" will bring on a CONNER
| cial warfare which cannot help carry
ing everything before it. This widen
ing of operations by American business
men has been foreshadowed for two
years past in the efforts made by some
Of the great concerns dealing in railroad
supplies and kindred articles, but the
shadow will become substance so sO0n
as peace has been declared and ocean
travel secured from dangers of confisca-
ton by enemies.
The loss of markets and the rapid
growth of wealth of the United States
which will come with peace is engros-
sing the attention of European nations

No Interference Will Be Tolerated.

Germany has served notice upon the
United States that when the time comes
for disposing of the Philippine islands
that she will have something to say
about the disposition. If William will
remember, it has only been a few weeks
since President Mckinley caused to be
conveyed to the representatives OF the
powers the intimation that no interior
ence would be tolerated in the war with
Spain, and it is not likely that any out
side nation will be permitted to dictate
| the terms of settlement for the islands
in either the Pacific or Atlantic ocean.
The success Germany had in deprivine
Japan of the spoils of the wal with
China, seems to have given the "Fader
land IA wrong impression of the rest OF
the world, and particularly of the Unit.
| ed States.
The American people have on their
wal paint, and when the time comes for
peace negotiations with Spain. Germany,
France or any other country would bet
| ter keep fingers out of the muss. This
government is capable of settling all the
| difficulties it gets into without any help
| and the American congress will dispose
of the Philippines in the manner in
which the interests of all concerned will
be best conserved. If it is thought best
to retain them they will be retained, but
the probabilities are they will be put up
at sale and the country that makes the
best cash bid will get them. If William
wishes to attend the auction and talk
with ''gelt," we'll and good, otherwise he
will find that there is safety in attend
ing to his own business. After suffering
insult and injury for years, the Amer
leans will not submit to any dictation
from any foreign power. Members of
congress and the president thoroughly
understand the temper of the people on
this proposition and they will act ac-
cordingly. .....
No fears are entertained in any quar-
ter over the thinly disguised threat COM
ing from the German throne.

SMALL HOLDINGS.
Delegate Fergusson's Bill Extending Time
for Filing Such Claims Until March s,
1901, Passed House Of Rep
tiOIl.
roS0ntatiVo!

A Washington dispatch says, that on
Thursday afternoon, the bill introduced
by Delegate FaSgusson, amending the
act, creating the court of private land
claims, so as to allow settlers on claims
100 acres or less in extent, who have set
tied upon these small holdings in good
faith and have had possessian of them
for 20 years prior to the passage of act
and prior to the survey of the lands to
file his class of claims in the offices OF
the surveyor general and registers and
| receivers until March 5, 1901, prove uI
and receive patents for the same until
that day.
Under the original act, the time fol
filing this class of small holding claims
had expired three years ago.
The court of private land claims wa
slow in getting into practical operation
and cases were not rapidly adjudicated
Home settlers could not know whether
to file their claims until the validity OF
their claims under private grants had
been passed upon by the court of private
land claims, and even now all of then
have not been SO passed upon. Other
bonafide settlers do not seem to have
understood their rights in season to
avail themselves thereof.
In it's favorable report the committee
says men who have entered on wild and
unsurveyed land in good faith and gen,
orally under what they supposed to be
a valid title and have actually lived
there improving the same, making their
homes and maintaining actual and con-
tinuous occupancy for 20 years and
more ought not to be dispossessed on a
mere technicality, nor should any un-
intentional neglect and delay in filing
their claims deprive them of their
homes.
There will be no difficulty experienced
in the passage of the bill in the senate
as it is a very m%eritorious measure. AS
soon as it becomes law, persons claiming
these small holdings will have until
March, 1901, for fling and completion.

A British View OF the War Situation.

The London Spectator looks at the
present American-Spanish war through
very clear glasses and referring to its
outcome says:
1.-THE Americans will emerge from the
war with new ideas and larger ambitions.
They will have defeated a second-class
European state, and will feel acutely
that, as matters stand, they would have
been defeated by a first-class one. They
could not have fought France, to say
nothing of Great Britain, without suffer
ing grave defeats at sea and enormous
losses on land.
THAT is not the position which suits
American temper and Washington viii
set itself to construct a first-class iror
feet. That once built, the desire for 3
position in the world equal to their posi-
ton among nations will compel them tt
abandon the idea of non-interventior
and change the Monroe doctrine into q
direct and effective protectorate of the
two Americas.
"We hope the Americans will keep the
Philippines, and that they can keep them
there is no doubt whatever. Europe,
to put the truth in its most brutal form,
can not attack them without our per-
mission"
It must be admitted thatthere is much
good, sound, common sense in these re-
marks, but whether or not the people of
this country really desire the annexation
OF the 1000 islands, known as the Philip
pines, containing a very mongrel and
extremely conglomerate population is
open to discussion and, IT may be pre-
sumed, will be discussed to a very great
extent before a permanent conclusion
will be reached.

Idle Fears.

On account of the absence of troops
from this section it is feared by some in
these parts that the Mescalero Apache
Indians may become troublesome. This
is idle fear. but in case they should at
tempt a raid all that is necessary would
be to turn the people here upon them
and the Apache tribe would not last SO
long as the snow upon White mountain.

pie who are off a OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
