BUREAU OF IMMIGRATION.
Articles for a Permanent Exhibit Are
Solicited from All Sections.
To the Press of New Mexico:

To the Press of New Mexico:
Santa Fee, N M, May "a, 1S99.-The
first action taken by the new bureau of
immigration, after it's organization, vas
the adoption of a resolution stating the
Importance to the development of the
territory of a permanent mineral, horti-
culture and agricultural exhibit, and
providing that such an exhibit be kept
at the Office of it's secretary.
We believe that this project will COM
mend itself to all friends of progress.
When completed, the exhibition will
give a far better idea of the resources,
products and capabilities of the differ
ent parts of the territory than n
amount of printed description. The in
quirer can ascertain by actual observa-
ton which section is particularly adapt
ed to the business in which he desires
to engage; and the exhibit as a whole
will show a range of industrial products
scarcely paralleled in any state of the
Union.
To form this collection, contributions

every locality, and the resolution of the
bureau assures the contributors that
they will be permanently preserved and
exhibited, and so labeled that proper in
dividual and local credit shall be ac-
corded in every case.
The new office of the bureau, conspic-
uously situated on the plaza in Santa
Fe, is now ready for the reception of ar
ticles for exhibition; and we appeal to
the press of New Mexico, which has al
ways been ready to forward any good
work for the public benefit, to urge the
people to send choice specimens of all
classes of products, in order that the
exhibit may speedily become of interest
and Importance. They should be adj
dressed to Colonel Max Frost, secretary,

In speaking of the report to a Star
reporter a prominent member of the
commission said: THE report does not
whitewash. 1t criticiSes, but not per-
sons or things not warranted by the
evidence before us. We started out
with the assumption that the conduct
of the war was all right, and then we
went ahead to hear and call witnesses
who said it was not. The report rep
resents the honest opinion of every
member of the commission. We We're
unanimous in adopting it. 1 say this,
and am of the opposite political faith
and don't expect and don't want any
thing from the administration.
There was no suppression or conceal
ment and no point brought out in the
evidence was evaded or CLOSED over
We never met before hearing a witness
and agreed not to examine him or to
touch upon certain matters that might
turn out unfavorably. The president
never saw a line of our report before he
received it officially; not single word
Nor. indeed, has he ever talked with
any of the committee about it,. He has
never in any way by word or action OF
messenger evinced a wish to have us
develop anything but the truth or even
touched upon the matter of our work
We have questioned more than 500
witnesses. and the majority of them
had some complaint that they wanted
TO relate In no instance can it be
proved that we have omitted to call any
witness who has been brought to our
attention as having important facts to
disclose. But had we desired to white
wash the administration we could have
had 5000 witnesses who could truthfulIy
testify that the conduct Of the war was
all right OF course there were some
evils. but they were to be expected The
soldiers in the civil war never had hos
pitfalls or medical attendance as good
as was given them in the war with
Spain. And their army ration then was
not as eatable as il is now.
The men who complained the most
of the food we found We're very general
ly the militiamen from the interiors of
states. and who had been allowed 81
per head for subsistence stores while
they were in state camps. When they
went into the active fighting they ex-
pected the same sort of thing. In queS-
tioning these men nearly all confessed
to US that they had always received the
army ration. They had no right to ex-
pect any more. 1 could tell some very
funny stories to illustrate this. There
were many complaints brought TO US
that on their face were foolish ard
false. but we went to every trouble and
expense to inquire into every genuine
charge"
