There is nothing new to be said by
Colonel Bryan on the money question,
In the last campaign enough was said
to last for a few decades. The logic Of
events has proved that much then said
was u~nWarranted, and based upon false
ideas as to what would occur if his
doctrine We're not adopted by the Amer
lean people. The people who had time
to listen to his speeches then are now
busy, and care little for the financial
views of any one SO long as want has
vanished and prosperity come. Colonel
Bryan is evidently going to prevent the
IL to | issue being ignored by the Dem
ocratic convention. but he will subse-
quently find that the people will have
lone of it, and his sonorous voice will
be heard de%nouncing trusts and Repub-
leans rather than talking on silver,
when the campaign opens He will find
it harder to persuade the people that
they will pet relief by unseating the
Republican party than he did to con-
vince them that the Democratic party
was the one to bring financial relief.

Cattle Feeding Industry.

The expected has happened. The
great alfalfa farms of the Pecos valley
have been bought, leased, or the prod
uct thereof purchased by cattlemen for
%fattening cattle for market. Sheep feed
ers are also in the market there for al
falfa. The feeding industry has been
increasing on the Pecos for several
years, and now in the first season since
the building Of a direct railway to the
Kansas City market, the plainsmen
from Texas are lively competitors for
the forage of the Pecos farms. If every
irrigated acre in the valley were COW
cred with alfalfa there would be cattle
to consume the product. The same
might be said Of the Rio Grande valley,
for no intelligent cattleman now mar
kets his cattle FOR beef until they are

Protecting New Mexico Sherifts.

The present territorial administration
believes in protecting the sheritfs of
New Mexico and helping them to secure
the rewards which they earn from
states and other territories by arrest
ing fugitive criminals. The sheriff of
One of the men whom he recently pur-
sued and captured in Otero county, aft
er a lively battle, proved to be Jim
Nite,' a bank robber and murderer,
ing him in Texas for various offenses.
He had escaped from Jail after convic-
ton, and in crossing New Mexico stole
horses, for which offense he was pur-
sued by Sheriff Stewart. After his ar
rest the state of Texas made requisi-
ton for the prisoner. The administra-
ton very wisely concluded to let Texas
have the future guardianship of the
man, instead of allowing Eddy county
to incur the expense of prosecution and
the territory the cost of maintaining
the prisoner. Sheriff Stewart, however.
found that the state that furnished the
criminal had offered a reward of 5000
for the arrest of the man, and that If
he delivered the prisoner to the agent
Of Texas without securing the reward
Texas officers would secure it, and he
would get but a small share, if any.
Sheriff Stewart is a Democrat, and
some of his friends assured him that d
Republican governor of New Mexico
would do nothing to protect him. But
New Mexico has not a narrow execu-
tive, and the sheriff was made secure
when he put the facts before the gov
ernor. The result was that the author
ity for the delivery of the prisoner was,
issued and mailed to the New Mexico
sheriff to retain until the Texas officers
arranged for payment of the reward.
Having found that there is no method
of securing the fugitive without paying
the $500, the Texas authorities have as
sured the New Mexico sheriff that he
VIII be paid c. o. d. But the action of
the executive was all that saved the
sheriff from being buncoed out of the
Well-earned reward of his bravery and
energy.

There is n thing comforting about

The Philippines have cost the United
States fully $50, 900, 900 up to the pres
ent time, including the $40, 900, 900 paid
to Spain for her quit claim. That
amount of money would probably pro-
vide primary irrigation plants for a dis
trict larger than the area of the Philip

main delivery arteries are to be ex-
pected from the government. The rest

A fact has developed With regard to

all eastern men, who had lately learned
how to irrigate, or who We're only be-
ginning to learn. Their energy and per-
severance have brought success, how
ever. There We're no natives of New
Mexico farming in that section until
last year, when some of them engaged
in beet growing on leased lands, or as
employees for farm owners, and they
produced the best beets sen to the fac
tory. The success of these natives, who
may be considered as ''irrigators from
away back was 50 marked that the
sugar company made a special effort
to get that class of farmers to engage
in beet growing this year, and succeed
ed to a considerable extent. The natives
Of the country around Santa Fe, who
know nothing of farming by any other
method than irrigation, would easily
succeed with the sugar beet.

COTTON A BY-PRODUCT.

1t is estimated that during the mast
year over 100000 tons of cotton seeds
were crushed, and that from them pro-
ducts valued at more than $12O 900 were
marketed Only few years ago the seed
of the cotton plant was practically a waste
product, and often source of annoyance.
If not of actual expense, to the planter.
The growth of the cotton oil industry has
been hardly short of marvellous. Last
year there were shipped nearly 4OOO0OOO
gallons Of the oil TO Europe, a large in
crease over all previous years, and II is
confidently expected that the exports of
oil for the present year Will be very much
greater. And while the field for the oil is
being extended, new uses for ii are being
constantly found. The market. therefore.
is far from being fully developed.
In view of these facts, 1t is not beyond
the range of possibilities that in the course
of time-and 1t may not be such a long
time, either-the lint of the cotton plant
will become the by-product and the seed
the chief staple. There Is at present a
pretty wide margin between the total
value of the lint crop and of the seed CROP;
but it must be borne in mind that while
all of the lint is harvested and marketed
only a portion of the seed crop is utilized
Should the price of the lint go much lower
than it is at present, and should the de-
velopment of the oil industry and its col
laterals go on with anything like the same
rate of progress that has been noted dur
ing the past ten years, the seed crop might
easily become the most valuable product
of the cotton plant. Reversals in Industry
equally as remarkable as this would be
have heretofore occurred. Five or six
years ago the principal mines in Colorado
were known as silver mines, though they
also contained gold. The extraction of
the silver was the moTe profitable, hence
the main product of the mines was that
metal. When the price of silver fell to a
low figure the owners of the mines de-
voted their attention to gold as the main
product and silver as the by-product. Col
orado is. now producing more gold than
ever before in her history. The great
copper mines on Lake Michigan were at
first known as silver mines, until il was
discovered that they could be made to pro-
duce copper al better profit than silver.
They are sun, as a matter of fact, pro-
ducing both of the metals. but silver is
the by-product and is depended upon the
pay the expenses of extracting the copper
And thus it may be in the matter of cot
Ton. We may discover that the seed is
the most valuable part of the product. and
raise the lint to pay the cost of growing
the seed.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Baltimore Sun (Dem.) says: lone
of the most hopeful signs in the South Is
the reported building of Touring mills in
many states. This is a movement which
when once begun, is sure to increase. If
the mills are running the people will raise
wheat to keep them going, and what the
South has needed for many a year is the
home production of bread and meat. 1t
Is the poorest sort of economy for farm
ers to ship wheat away from home and
then ship flour back again, paying freight
both ways 1t is also poor economy, even
when there is a surplus of wheat raised
in any community, to ship il away in the
form of wheat. 1t should be ground at
home and shipped away as flour, provided
of course, the market for flour and the
market for wheat are equally practicable"
The Birmingham News (Dem.) says: IF
Pennsylvania, Delaware and California
elect, two new senators will certainly be
Republicans and one from Delaware prob
ably viii be- This will make the new
Senate stand: Republicans, 81 and per-
haps So; Democrats, q, or possibly 2S; Pop
ulists, S. The Republican majority over
all will be eighteen certainly and proba-
bly, twenty. This will be the largest Re
puDuCdH HldJoElty IN tilS SENATE since the
reconstruction period"
1t seems very difficult for the admins
traton to please the Chicago Tribune
CRep) That paper is far from delighted
with the new director Of the census. Gov.
Merriam" II says. lis an excellent man
in his way, but his appointment can be
defended only on the ground that there
must be a political as well as a statistical
chief of the bureau. There would be no
need of two chiefs il Congress did not
have such a dislike for the merit system"
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
Qnd) says: I'VE trust that Secretary
Cages confidence IN the ability Of the
treasury TO meet all demands upon It
through the next fiscal year without fur
Their borrowing is better founded than his
last December estimate of this fiscal
years deficit That is being prov,d to
