The bill. passing both houses providing
for two more Supreme court justices is
undoubtedly unconstitutional. 1t has
been SO stated by at least one OF the
members OF the court, according TO infor-
nation given the Democrat. Make the
standing OF the court higher so that
there will be fifty per cent fewer cases
and then the court will be able to attend
to the business. Go ct itright.

WASHINGTON Jan. 9th. 1899.
Senator. Mason fred an unexpected
bomb.shell into the ranks OF the Philip
pine annexationists when he offered his
resolution. starting with quotation
from the Declaration Of Independence
"Whereas, all just powers CT govern
ment are derived from teh consent OF the
governed"-and declaring that the U
s. will not attempt to govern the people
OF any other country without the con-
sent OF the people themselves or subject
them by force t. our dominion against
their will. Unless the attitude OF AQuin.
aldo and his followers changes widely

state it TO be, We have got 10 govern them

Senator Caffrey, of La. aud Repre-
sentative Swanson, OF Va, made speech
es ip.support of Senator Vest's resolutions

Swanson, after pointing out that, in his
opinion, the trade advantages we woul
secure by the annexation of the Philip
pines, would not bsgip TO balance
the expense Of keeping them, stated his
belief that the main support of imperial
istic policy came from those who are
J working to bring about an offensive and
defensive alliance between the U. S. anC

A FRUITFUL VALLEY.
, Plenty of Fruit Now Around Abiquiu-
Shipments Made,

While in nearly every part of the
territory the fruit crop is more or less
injured, in Abiquiu it is more abundant
than ever. The orchard of Henry
Grant, which is the oldest in that vicin-
ity, having been planted nearly twenty
years ago by Alexander Douglass, is
literally breaking down with its burden
of fruit of all kinds. In the little valley
just west of the town is the orchard OF
j. M. c. Chavez, and here the trees are
loaded with apples, pears, peaches,
apricots, nectarines, plums, prunes,
walnuts, mulberries, ard ounces. Some
exceedingly fine japanese plums are
fruiting here for the first time. The
orchard of Ignacio L. Ortiz also looks
well and was not injured by the frosts.
Shipments are being made every day
both to Chama and to Espanola.
The valley of the Chama is exception
ally prosperous, the crops having fully
recovered from the cold and lateness of
the spring, and the recent rains having
especially benefited the alfalfa.

Petroleum in Lincoln County,

Comery Bros, who have been digging
a well near White Oaks for ranch pur-
poses, and at a depth of a little more
than 100 feet, came in contact with a
peculiar formation, which showed evil
dence of the presence of crude petrole-
UNI. Others have struck oil in sinking
wells in that vicinity, but thought moth
ing of it. William Lane, in sinking a
well north of White Oaks several years
ago, found a quantity of oil, but as he
wanted water for hts ranch he aban-
doned the well. Thorough investigation
will be made Of the strata in which the
oil is found, and it is likely that New
Mexico will soon figure as a producer of
coal oil.

Extent of the Cochiti Mining District.

To the Editor of the New Mexican:
Santa Fe, August 16.-In the course of
an interesting and instructive interview
with MI. A. w. Tenant respecting
prominent territorial mining districts,
printed in the New Mexican yesterday,
l notice that the gentleman is quoted
as saying that many people are mis-
taken about the extent of the Cochiti
district that "at most it is all included
in an area four by six miles," and that,
while never having seen elsewhere
such big veins, with so high and uni
form values as in the Cochiti," he
speaks of the district as Comparatively
small" In my recent article descriptive
of the Cochiti, prepared expressly for
your hospitable columns, I gave the ex-
tent of the main mineral belt Of the dis
trict, the same as Mr.. Tenant did to
your reporter, and frankly confess feel
ing at the time that it was compare
lively small" Since her I have been
surprised to learn from the United
States geological report IN the Cripple
Creek district that the world-renowned
gold camp Of Colorado only covers an
area six miles in length by five and
one-half miles in width" or remarkably
close to the extent credited to the Co.
chit, and I have reason to believe that
the prospecting now going on will soon
widen the latter district to the full area
of Cripple Creek, if not more. 1 was
also surprised to discover in the same
report that the surface appearance, al
titude, general trend Of the mineral belt
and pitch of the ore bodies of Cripple
Creek are remarkably like the condi-
tons observed in the Cochiti. Indeed,
the Cochiti formation, so far as dis
closed by development work, in many
respects closely resembles that of Grip
pie Creek. GEORGE MARSH.

Requirement Upon Notaries.

The territorial secretary has been re-
quested by the authorities at Washing
ton to send a record of the notaries pub
lie of the territory for use Of the patent
office. According to a recent decision of
the department, hereafter the seal and
signature Of a notary public will not be
deemed sufficient on applications for a
patent. The practice Of the department
is to require each notary public. to place
on file in the department a certificate to
his official character and the date of the
expiration Of his commission. This APP
plies only to such notaries public as
certify to applications for patents. As
only about six Of the 400 or more nota-
ries public in the territory certify to
patents in the course Of their business,
1t will be unnecessary to send the data
required by the department for every
notary public in the territory, and Sec
rotary Wallace will send the data only
regarding those who request him to do

San PEDRO MINES.
What Is Being Done on Copper Properties
There.

Fe Gold and Copper Mining Company,
was a visitor in this city to-day, accom-
panied by ]. Parke Claiming, Of New

oping the prospects. No ore Is being
shipped as vet, and all of the fifty men
employed are doing development work.

from 2 to so per cent Of copper. At pres
ent some machinery, such as hoists, etc.,

mine, and new machinery Is being
brought in for that mine. A well is be-
ing dug on the San Lazarus property.
otherwise there Is a lull in mining in
