IF there was one thing necessary to
Insure Governor Roosevelt's immor-
tality in the historical annals of this
country that one thing has now been
supplied. Teddy has come out for wo-
man suffrage. In his message to the
legislature he advocated gradual ex-
tension OF the suffi age to women. The
women who think and feel strongly
upon this matter, on either side, were
In great perplexity as to what the gov
ernor meant, and they sought inter
views. Governor Roosevelt says that
he is in favor of trying the experiment
to see what legislation can accomplish
in the way of the gradual extension of
the suffrage to the other sex. He has
seen the system in operation in Q small
way in the school district where his
home has been, and he thinks it might
work elsewhere.

A Correspondent Says New Mexico

in saying that there are numerous
buried towns all over New Mexico
These towns and many isolated struct-
ures belonging to the same people can
easily be distinguished from Pueblo

often being of we'll dressed stone, laid
in asher work, with cement joints.
the walls generally plastered with
the same cement. There is . large
town buried at San Mateo in Valencia
county, one of the buildings of which
was partly exhumed by Hon. Amado
Chavez, who discovered it by accident.
Another partly buried At Agujs del
Ojo in Valencia county, and many 9TH
ers known only to cattle and sheep
men in Valencia, Socorro and Sierra
counties. Sheriff A. B. Laird of Sier-
ra county partially exhumed q buried
group of ancient buildings in which he
found perfect ears of petrified corn.
Some of the ancient forests of which
Prof. LonRurmaier speaks have be-
come petriied forests. One of these
in Socorro county undoubtedly fur
nished shelter to an ancient Druidical
place of Worship. This was discover
engaged in surveying the Socorro
grant and when found the altar stone
was still in place, but broken into two
sections, while outer circles OF stand
ing stones were evidences of its ancient
use.
I think Prof. Longurmaier is cor
rect in his hypothesis that at some
time in the past all human life in New
Mexico has been destroyed by a
catastrophe or cataclysm. Those who
were interested few years ago in my
the Southwest Magazine will remem-
Der that gave my reasons for this
belief, but I think Prof. L. will
find some difficulty in establishing

lost race in question, into which lava
flowed so long ago that channels of
erosion have been cut through or into
it forty feet in depth. I have In my
possession lava belonging to this same
lava flow that has run onto corn in the
ear, the corn now imbedded in the
lava.
1t would, I think, require a good deal
to believe that these chan

of these trees and the corn, could have
occurred in 21O years. Or, that if the
occurred SO recently, the
Pueblo Indians, the Navsjos or the
Utes should have no tradition either of
the catastrophe or the people who
builded the now buried cities.

IL may be n question whether the

publicly recommend any or the various
proprietary medicines which food the
market. yet as n preventive OF suffer
ing we feel it duty to say n good
word for Chamberlain's Collie. Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have
known and used this medicine in our
family for twenty years and have al

of suffering while n physician Is await

but we do believe that IL n bottle Of
Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were
kept on hand and administered Mt the

might be avoided and in very many
cases the presence OF n physician
would not be required. At least this
has been our experience during the
