THE SILVER ISSUE.
washington Times


The most recent utterance of former
Governor Altgeld on the subject of sill
ver's place in the next presidential
struggle will rank among the small DO
litical surprises of the day. Altgeld as
serts that silver at 16 to / is not to be a
paramount Democratic issue. 1t will be
an issue, however, because no one in the
party of Bryan would for a moment
think of eliminating silver from the
platform or RELOCATING it to a subordin-
ate place. Ii will not command the in
terest it did in 1896 for obvious reasons.
The country has become to some extent
a creditor nation, and the result, which
may be temporary or otherwise, is that
there is a much larger volume of cur
rency circulating through the arteries
OF trade than was the case a few years
ago.

Three per cent of the Pennsylvania
regiment that went to the Philippines
did not return. That is not IA very large
loss of men who spend a year in war in
the tropics, especially when it is remem-
bered that the most of the regiment had
never endured any greater hardship than
sleeping upon a spring bed before going
to the islands, and had lived upon the
best that PENNSYLVANIA affords.

cry OF unwilling Victims.

1t took the Democrats just 4s6 ballots
to decide who should be beaten for con.
gress in Silver Dick BANDS old district
at the convention a few days ago. The
district was always a close n for Mr..
Bland but once, and his successor in the
nomination is apt to find several stun.
bling blocks placed in his way by the
people who voted 4s6 times against him.
A Republican congressman from that
district may reasonably be expected.

Woe! Woe! The prophet Of Boston
has broken out again and in the delor-
Gus tones of a jeremiah proclaims that
unless the war in the Philippines is
stopped at once the country will go to

Atkinson. Don't you see Mckinley
is doing all in his power to stop the war
in the shortest time possible? Go and

One thing must be said of the frisky
Filipinos. No sooner have they been
licked and scattered to the winds, ac-
cording to cable reports, than another
squad of 5000 or 10000 stands up and
makes it hot for Uncle Sans soldiers.
In n sense there must be more pa.
triotism among the FiIipinos than there
is in Boston. The Filipinos may after
all make good and patriotic citizens OF
the United States after they have been
corraled and brought to their senses.

MINERAL WIDELY DISTRIBUTED
Mineral Record. Albunueruue.0


That the whole mountain region of
New Mexico presents a sure prospecting
field is a safe assertion. To say that a
few favored spots at which development
has taken ~place-merely points on the
vast area of known minerallzed terrific
ry-show even a small part of the great
resources of our mountains, is false. In
the heart of the best developed camps
is still much virgin ground, and much
OF the mineral bearing area has scarcely
been scratched by the prospector's pick.
The chances in this territory today are
equal to those presented by the Cripple
Creek or Leadville districts.
New Mexico has upwards of 80 mining
districts, which are widely distributed,
proving that the mineral wealth Is not
confined to one section.

The Mining Record is the name of a
publication established at Albuquerque
BY Messrs. Curran & Stubs, which pro-
poses to become a weekly as business
warrants. The first number is certainly
an excellent sheet for distribution to
make the mineral resources of New
Mexico known,

FORAGE CROPS OF TAOS.

The native hay crop of the valley is
now being harvested. While not up to
the standard on account of unusually
light rainfall the output of the native
grass meadows of the valley will be
many tons. The crop of timothy and
tame grasses, while not abundant, is
very liberal. The second cutting of
alfalfa has commenced and on account
of recent rains will prove much more
satisfactory that the first clip.

If present advices are correct another
important industry, that of date grow
ing, will shortly be inaugurated in this
country. Through the efforts of our
agricultural department the date tree of
Algiers has been successfully trans
planted and successfully acclimated in
Arizona, and the beginning of another
profitable industry has thus been made.
1t is predicted that in a few years
American orchards will supply the en-
tire home demand for dates. 1t would
seem that not only Arizona, but New
Mexico, the "staked plain" region of
Texas, and considerable patches in Cali
fornia and the Indian Territory afford
the peculiar conditions of soil and eli
mate necessary for the date. 1t does
not appear to thrive in regions where
the humidity is so great as in our gulf
states. A single tree yields from 100 to
400 pounds of dates per annum.

FACTS ABOUT HEALTH

1t is Easy to Keep Well if We Know
How Some of the Conditions Neces-
sary to Perfect Health.
The Importance of maintaining good
health is easily understood, and it is
really a simple matter if we take a cor
rect view OF the conditions required.
In perfect health the stomach promptly
digests food. The blood is employed to
carry nourishment to the organs, nerves,
muscles and tissues which need it.
The first great essential for good health,
therefore, is pure, rich blood. No medi-
cine has such a record of cures as Hoods
Sarsaparilla and it is because it is the one
true blood purifier. Hundreds of people
are alive and well today who would have
been in their graves had they not taken
Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t is depended upon
as a family medicine by thousands.

MORE LIGHT,

Judge Advocate General Jewett, just
returned from Manila, while favoring
the Presidents policy of brute force
and slaughter, nevertheless admits that
Aguinaldo did not turn against the
United States until he had lost all
faith in good intentions toward his
people. Speaking of the Filipino COM
mander, Gen. Jewett says:
He used to come to see me nearly every
day, just as he went to visit General
Merritt. He'd ask: What is your gov
going to do with us?' We
couldn't tell him.. He naturally believed
US liars and cheats. He couldn't conceive
of a powerful nation without a fixed
policy"
This comes as nea to giving a cor
rect view OF the Philippine situation and
the causes leading to and responsible
for it as anything published. Here we
have fully displayed the timid, hating.
double-dealing policy of the admins

vance upon the original cost. The
profits go to the credit of the organiza-
tons at the post. This money is ex-
pended by the company commanders
in the purchase of Injuries, like butter,
milk, eggs, game, cheese, etc., not
found on the regular bill of fare. Every
canteen is a sort of club whereat the
men may resort to read, to sing, to
play games that are not gambling
games, to regale themselves between
meals with light ~luncheons. The regu-
lations prohibit the sale of anything of
an alcoholic nature, except beer. In
t"oxication is not permitted and neither
is the sale of beer to any one who
might be intoxicated. Such is the can
teen as it is described, semi-oficially
and authoritatively, by the Army and
Navy Journal.
1t is not such a heinous institution.
On the contrary, there is abundant evil
0ence, in the army records, that the
canteen is a factor in sustaining the
morale of the force. 1t keeps the men
at the post out of vile whisky dives
and houses of iH-repute near the post.
