Buying Less In Canada.

The highest point reached in pur-
chases from Canada by the United
States was in 1882 when the amount was
$42, 700, 900. They have been decreas-
ing steadily since and in 1898 amounted
to but 1874, 400, 900. There is little need
for a country of such vast and varied
as the United States buying
across the line and it has been the poll
cy Of the Republican party to exclude
residents of Canada from competing
with the farmers of this country who
pay taxes and share the duties of citi-
zens. One need only know the sums
spent annually by this country for
Canadian goods in the 81 years past, de-
spite tariffs to see what a vast amount
Of money would 60 to Canada were there
no protection for producers on this side
of the line. The statistician of Canada, in
q report just issued, says that since 1868
the United States has imported from its
northern neighbor $955 900, 900, which
is only $3O5, 900, 900 less than the United
Kingdom bought from its colony. The
quantity taken by the United Kingdom
is Increasing, while the United States is
enabled to buy less and less every year.

CattIemen Progressive.

The stockmen of New Mexico have
bought more fine cattle and sheep this
year for breeding up their herds and
flocks than in any other year. They
have had the money with which to do
this and have learned that there is more
money in graded beef cattle than in the
common stock which used to comprise
the most of the herds, and that the i'm
proved sheep bring better prices than
the smaller varieties. There has been
q large influx of cattlemen into the Pc
cos valley in the past year and they are
buying alfalfa ranches for breeding
farms, from which to improve their
plains herds. Many of the sheep own
ers are using alfalfa to fatten their
lambs for the eastern market. They
have found out that this method Of
handling live stock pays as we'll in New
Mexico as it does elsewhere.

1t is stated that the cotton growers Of
the United States will this year receive
$3.50, 600, 900 for their crops, at the pres

OPPOSITION TO FRIARS.
fWashinuton Timps

1t has been sometimes enormously re-
ported In this country that the Philippine
rebellion against Spain, of which Agui-
naldo's insurrection is a revival was
directed not against Spanish colonial
government as such, but in its capacity
Of protector to the Spanish priesthood.
This is not a true statement of the case.
The natives always venerated the secular
priests and were inimical only to the
orders of friars. The latter have been
regarded by the Tagals as their enemies
and oppressors for a century. The
expulsion of the friars from Guam by
Governor Leary will serve to bring the
whole subject to the front. His action
may have been unjustifable, but whether
it was or not it is right that his full
reasons for such a drastic curse should
be given to the public. At the same
time it would be interesting to learn the
truth concerning the anne religious ele-
ment in the Otis jurisdiction. Why
there should be general hatred of one
kind of Catholic priests and affection for
another in Luzon is a matter that
deserves the investigation it is under
stood the Congress will give it.

Disqraceful Railway Mail Service.

The New Mexican has no means of
knowing at present whose fault it is
that for the past two days the capital OF
the territory, and presumably the north
ern towns along the main line of the
Santa Fe railway have had no letter
mail from Albuquerque and southern
points until over Is hours after the ar
rivals of trains that might bring such
mail. 1t wishes it did know, so that it
might lay the matter before the proper
authorities of the railway company and
the railway mail service, and also let the
people know where the blame lies. The
papers leaving Ell Paso Sunday night
were received here in the following
morning. As none was printed at AL
buquerque that day, none could have
been received here. No letters came
from Ell Paso, indicating that a paper
sack was made up beyond Albuquerque
for this place, but letter mail was held
at Albuquerque until a late night train,
that should have been forwarded here
Monday morning. Tuesday the same
disgraceful mail service occurred and
the citizens of Santa Fe received letters
this morning that should have arrived
yesterday forenoon, from Albuquerque
and the south. Although the Ell Paso
papers mailed Monday evening were re-
ceived yesterday the Albuquerque pa
pers of yesterday morning were not
brought, because there was no local
mail service, and came struggling in next
morning, 80 hours after being printed,
with Ell Paso papers printed Is hours
later.
Formerly the postal car coming from
Ell Paso was cut out at Albuquerque be-
cause the train coming from California
a little later could pick up the mail from
the south at Albuquerque and serve
this end of the territory. But with thu
change of timecard this arrangement
should not have been continued, caus
ing the mail to be held Is hours at AL
buquerque and making it impossible tt
deliver letters on the day they are mail
ed, at a point but about 60 miles distant
and between the important towns of AL
buquerque and Santa Fe. Presumably
Las Vegas is in the same fix as Santa FL
with reference to southern mail. There
was ample time for a better arrange.
ments to have been made and if the
fault lies with the Denver s%uperinten'
dent of the mail service, with the rail
way officials, or both, then one and all tt
blame should go somewhere and lear1
their business, for such a wretched ser
vice for two days, and for aught known
here intended for a longer period, is dis
graceful.

A A NECESSITY.
fPhiladeIphia TimeS,)

To those who realize that the people
of the United States have been for near
ly 800 years devoting their attention to
the destruction of forests with results
that are not entirely pleasant to con-
template at this time the wonder will be
that schools of forestry were not estab-
lished long ago. 1t would probably be
difficult to find a dozen men in the en-
tire country competent to act as in
structors in the science of forestry, and
the few that can be named secured their
own education abroad or with a natural
taste for this branch of education, are
self-instructed. No civilized country
with anything like the forest area of the
United States is so poorly equipped with
men educated in the science and prac-
tice of forestry, and there should have
been schools Of forestry established half
a century ago.

Cochiti's Growing Greatness.

Nobody who has inspected the Cochiti
district this year has failed to be i'm
pressed with the belief that the
mining operations there will in time
be greater than are carried on at any
point in New Mexico at present. The
district proper is but 4 by 6 miles in
area, or about the size of the Cripple
Creek district, but it is very clear from
surface discoveries and development
that gold is more or less abundant all
the way from the Rio Grande to the
Chama. The veins found in the various
canons and ridges of the Cochiti country
from Medic Dia to Peralta are wide and
rich, a number of them being so feet
in thickness from wall to wall. I'm
mense plants are necessary to handle
the ore economically. Several large
mills are in operation and n more has
been ordered and will soon be in opera
ton.
The Cochiti Gold Mining Company is
now expanding $3.50, 600, in doubling the
size of its mill and in constructing an
electric plant to operate the mill and
hoists, by power transmitted owe its
own wire from the coal mines at Ma
drid, rs miles distant.
The ore of the Cochiti district neces-
sarily has to be treated by the cyanide
process after depth is attained and
therefore the mines are not shippers,
although the Crown Point did formerly
send 80, 900 tons to Ell Paso for smelling.
The greatest disadvantage which the
camp has to labor under is the scarcity of
water for extensive operations, but this
can be overcome by the establishment
of mills on the Rio Grande 20 miles dis
tant and the operation of eiectrict
plants. Naturally a railway operated
by electricity will result II this plan be
adopted and the ores of the district will
be hauled to the river. In fact one of
the mining companies is already con-
sidering this proposition and capitalists
have under consideration the erection
of q big custom mill at the river, larger
than any in the country. Cochiti dis
trict is a big proposition and will de-
velop some big industrial operations.
The companies operating there are
making money and when the owners of
prospects finally realize that buyers can
not be secured at the high prices asked
for u~ndeveloped properties which the
q not work for lack of capital
to establish milling plants, then the
many capitalists who are now going to
the camp and leaving without acquiring
because of unreasonable prices
asked, will buy and open up producing
mines.

A 1T WAS RIGHT.
kansas City Starr

The United States took possession of
the Philippines because it was right for
it to do so. Any other course would
have been an absurd violation of the
rules of warfare and an injustice to the
American people and the Filipinos. The
Philippine commissioners dwell with un-
necessary emphasis on the point that
the United States have held the islands
because it could do nothing else. There
is nothing due in the way of apology for
the policy Of the government in the &C.
QUESTION of the Philippines. 1t was not,
in any sense, a make-shift or q case of
Hobson's choice. 1t was indicated by
the precedents of civilization, by the
requirements of national honor and by
justice, and it will stand, without ex-
PLANTATION, supported by these condi-
tions.

pie of the south will give credit where it

The cotton goods manufacturers OF
South Carolina are preparing to petition
congress for an active policy in the far
east. The cotton mill owners state that
there are now mills enough to use up
every pound of cotton grown in the
state in three years and they want the
east for a direct market for their goods.
The mill owners do not care anything
about politics compared with their desire
for a broad market.

PATRIOTISM.
New York Tribune.)


"My country, right or wrong" is a
toast which had a meaning once for
those who were able to read anything
below the surface, and for such people
has one still. No time need be wasted
in pointing out the foolish things it does
not mean. But this it always means,
that no man can find the f~aintest ex-
cuse, in any sincerity or eccentricity of
individual belief, for giving aid and COM
fort to armed enemies of his country,
whether by speech or printed words or
votes. The crime of treason Is one for
which a man can never find justification,
no matter what his individual belief, be-
cause the blessing of personal freedom
comes only with the condition, accepted
with the solemn oath of allegiance, that
it shall be never so exercised as to aid
the armed foes of the nation.

MAKING THE SOUTH RICH.
louisville Courier-Journal.)


A private letter received here the
other day from a Louisiana cotton
planter said that he was selling all his
cotton at 7 to ~ cents a pound and moth
ing under Z cents. A gentleman who
has just returned from Huntsville says
he saw cotton selling there from the
wagons of the negro planters at 6.25
cents a pound. Such prices as these
mean a high state of prosperity in the
south, and completely knock out the
force of Senator Jim Jones remark that
he didn't see any great prosperity, and
that cotton hadn't advanced much, any
how. The senator, in common with a
great many others, keeps his eye fixed
upon that time when cotton sold on the
plantation at 2H to 3 cents. That time
has gone by now, and we are living in a
new and better era.

A NEW ANTITRUST DECISION.
kansas City Starr


The Illinois supreme court, with all
the judges c%oncurring, rendered a decis-
ion last week which ought to be a death
blow to all trusts, unless they are invul-
nerable. The court decided not only
that any sort of corporation which has
in view the control and monopolization
of the manufacture or sale of a COM
modify is illegal, but it went still farther
and declared that no corporation organ
lied in Illinois can legally sell its prop
erty to an individual or corporation when
the plain purpose of the purchaser is to
create a monopoly.
There have been numerous decisions
which declared it illegal for corporations
to consolidate for the purpose OF con-
trolling prices and restraining competi-
ton. To evade the antitrust laws as
thus interpreted it has been the custom
of late in organizing trusts to create a
new corporation for the purpose of buy
ing out the separate concerns that are
to be absorbed. This practice will now
have to be given up in Illinois If the law
as interpreted by this latest court decis-
ion is rigidly enforced. OF course the
trusts and combinations now in existence
| will 90 on doing business until specific
suits are brought against each one, to
declare it illegal, but it is not likely that
any new consultations can be effected
in Illinois until the astute corporation
lawyers find some new way to organize
trusts without violating the law.
Trusts formed in that way have been
repeatedly declared by courts to be
against public policy, but the Illinois
supreme court goes to the extreme of
declaring not only that such corpora
tions are illegal, but that no minor cor
poration can transfer its property to a
company which has in view the control
of prices and the limitation Of competi-
ton.

FROM SOLDIER TO CITIZEN,
kansas City Star.)

There was no Imperialism in the scene
on Thursday at Topeka. The people
realized, all at once, and were touched
by the great fact that they saw the pass
ing of today into history. They saw the
same young men who had answered 10
the call to arms, who had departed in
the motley array Of citi%zen-soldiery, re-
turn in war uniforms and hand to the
custody of the state the flags they had
borne in battle on another soil. After
the blaze of welcome, the shout and the
acclaim, the soldier would be again the
citizen.
There was no imperialism in that. 1t
proclaimed the fact that the republic is
not the empire. Citizens had departed
to be soldiers and soldiers returned to be
citizens. In the faces OF the warriors
who returned was no pride Of military
caste. Nothing in the scene suggested
anything but the eternal supremacy of
the people. The young men were sent
by the people and returned to the people.
All who witnessed the spectacle realized
the strength Of the republic, which is
the people. There was no cause for mis-
givings.
These young men, passing from SOL
diers to citizens, were as the sign of the
cross to evil phantoms raised by the
men who doubt their country and doubt
the people. No imperial specter stood
in the sunshine Of the return of the
Twentieth.

NEGRO EDUCATION IN THESOUTH.
Baltimore SUM-

In several southern states movements
have been inaugurated from time to time
to devote the taxes paid by whites ex-
clusively to the education OF white child
rem and to give to the negroes for the
education of their children such sums as
they might pay into the state treasury
in the form Of taxes. If such a plan
had been adopted, the southern negroes
would have had very few schools, while
the educational facilities provided for
the whites would have been materially
increased and improved. Although
there might have been justification for
such a division Of the school funds, the
suggestion was never favored by q ma
jority of the taxpayers In any southern
state, regardless Of the legality Of such
a division. They have continued to
educate the negroes at their own ex.
pense and at the expense Of white child
rem, never stopping to enquire whether
the results justified the expenditure, al
though at times they may have had SO.
rious doubts on the subject.
