than two weeks, and will close, 1t is
said, next Friday. The first week Judge
Leland presided on the bench, and made
a very good impression. Judge Parker
is at present presiding, and is able and
satisfactory. The business Of the courts
amounted to considerable. There were
not as many convictions had In the

hear of transactions in mines involving
money by thousands almost daily. A
railroad from this point to the little

the foot of the mountains, would go
far toward bringing this portion of New

generally wish the road may be built

THE YEARS IMMIGRANTS.
Number Was Increased 80 Per Cent By
Good Times.

Washington, October 26-In his an
nual report to the secretary of the
treasury Commissioner General Pow
derby, of the immigration bureau, gives
the total arrivals for the year ended
June 30 1899, as 311,715 and increase
over the next preceding year of 50, 416, or
36 per cent. The opinion is expressed
that at least $4,000 persons We're not
listed in this number, through defect
in the law as we'll as an indeterminate
number from Canada and Mexico, who
are not, under existing regulations, ac-
counted for. The number Of contract
laborers debarred last year exceeded
the number for the next preceding year
by n per cent. Legislation Is recon-
mended to enable the commissioner
at the centers of labor in this country to
which contract laborers are destined.
The recommendation of last year is re-
peated as to the necessity for trans
ferring the immigration stations at Ca
madam ports to certain designated
points on our boundary, which shall be
the only ports Of entry for aliens COM
ing through the dominion. This recon-
is sustained by figures show
ing that immigration through Canada
has largely increased, and the care ex-
ercised by officials at American ports Is
merely diverting the tide of immigra-
ton through channel offering little
obstruction. With regard to the islands
held under military authority as the
outcome of the war with Spain, the
opinion is expressed that prompt ex-
tension of the immigration laws to them
by order of the secretary Of war will
avoid many embarrassments.

Intervention. Aguinaldo, in recent
speech at Tarlac, characterized the fri

consideration for the friars whose ini-
quities and abuses are doubtless un-
known at the vatican, where only the
friar's own misleading reports are re-
ceived. If this commission has not yet
left Manila the fact is due to the machi-
nation and intrigue Of Bishop Nozaleda
of Manila, who is most efficaciously aid

INSPECTING COAL FIELDS.
New York and Pennsylvania Operators in
Lincoln County.

Commodore Lowrey, of New York
| City, vice president of the New Mexico
Railway and Coal Company, the corpo-
ration that controls and operates the El
Paso & Northeastern railroad and the
Salado coal fields, has just inspected the
property. Talking of the interests in
Lincoln county, he said:
1.-THE coal fields are doing very we'll,
indeed, and we expect to ship car loads
INTO Ell Paso within a few days. The
White Oaks people say our coal is CIV
ing out. The best answer to that will be
our shipments to Ell Paso, that are now
coming. The coal will be of excellent
quality for all purposes, and we will be
able to sell as cheaply as any one. The
talk about the coal fields giving out
comes simply from those who are disap-
pointed because we did not come at
once where they wanted us to. We will
probably build to White Oaks in time.
rhe Rock Island will probably build in
to the country. There is 50 much talk
about it and agitation of the matter
that think it is sure to come soon. OF
course, a through line will benefit El
Paso, but we are not at all anxious for
it. We would rather prefer to remain
local line"
With Commodore LoWrey were John
Wells Hollenbeck and daughter, and
George Bennett of Wilkesbarre, Pa,
and Miss Mary Gibson. of Philadelphia.
Messrs. Bennett and Hollenbeck are
Doth national bank presidents, and are
.arge stockholders in the New Mexico
Railway and Coal Company.
Mr. Bennett said: "As to eastern con-
aections, they are Inevitable, and must
come shortly. We ourselves are so well
content with out investment that we are
making no effort in that line. But it Is
so much to the interest Of the Rock Is
land to come to us from Liberal and
IF the Denver & Rio Grande to seek

"The development of the lumber in
terests Is wonderful. There is an abun-
dance of timber sufficient for Ell Paso's
needs for years. The quality of coal is
excellent, 1 saw samples Of semi-an-
thracite which Is equal in quality to
anything we have in Pennsylvania. OF
course the magnificent views on the
new Cloudcroft mountain line is beyond
anything have ever seen, even in the
mountains Of Switzerland. This place
Is destined to be most popular resort
for all the southwestern country"

M'KlNLEY PROSPERITY.
The President on the Condition of Busi-
neHa

In one Of bis recent speeches Presi-
dent Mckinley very correctly described
the industrial conditions prevailing in
the country at the present, as follows
I'VE have had wonderful industrial
development in the last two years Our
work shops never were 80 busy; our
trade at home was never so large, and
our foreign trade exceeds that of any
ike period in all our history. In the
year 1899 we bought abroad upward OF
$697 200, 900 worth Of goods and In the
same year sold abroad $1,227, ,000, 900. CIV
ing balance OF trade in our favor of
$3.50 200, 900.
This means more labor at home,
more money at home, more earnings at
home. Our products are carried on ev-
cry sea and find a market in all parts
of the world. In 1888 the Japanese gov
ernment took from us $3.50 per cent OF
it's total imports, and in 1898 14.57 per
cent. We are the greatest producers of
pig iron, and our manufactures Of iron
and steel exceed those Of any other
country. We raise three-fourths OF the
cotton Of the world.
"The growth Of the railway system OF
the United States is phenomenal. From
thirty miles in 1880 we have gone to
1872, 600 miles in 1897.
"Our internal commerce has even ex-
ceeded the growth Of our outward com
merce. Our railroad transportation lines
never were so crowded, while our build
ers Of cars and engines are unable to fil
the pressing orders made necessary by
the increased traffic.
1--WE have everything, gentlemen, tc
congratulate ourselves over as to the
present condition Of the country. I an
told by business men everywhere thai
the business of the country now rests
upon substantial basis, and that you
are really only making what there is 9
market for, and as long as you do that
Of course, you are doing safe business
and our markets are going to increase.

ASSETS OF AZTEC.
It Is Well Off In Natural Resources and
Surroundings.

| The town Of Aztec has virtually dou-
bled its size within two years. 1t is in
the center of the valley of the Animas
extending into San Juan county. The
river is banked for thirty miles, from
Cedar Hill to the junction, by ranches
and orchards and meadows.
There Is not an empty house in town,
and many would-be renters await the
construction of additional buildings.
The valleys Of the La Plata and the
upper and lower San Juan are pro-
life In yield, phenomenal in richness Of
SOIL and offer some startling opportuni-
ties for the construction Of profitable ir-
| rigating canals and reservoirs.
There Is a ready market-in, as ex-
ample, this very year of our Lord, A. D!
1S99-for all the grain, hay, fruit, pro-
duce and vegetables our farmers can
haul away. Not q pound Of fruit or
grain or hay need fail of a purchaser.
| The market for wheat is the best and
| largest that could be expected by any
community without railroad facilities.
The great Navajo reservation, lying
partly within and partly south and west
Of this county, contains 10000 people,
whose flour product must be obtained
of outsiders, scarcely an acre Of ground
being successfully cultivated by the In
dians. San Juan county wheat fields are
the nearest to the bulk Of these people,
and our mills must supply them with
flour Lo! tine poor Navajo has no espe-
cially fastidious ideas, but he has an
ever-ready appetite, and the money he
gets from his wool and his blankets is
as good as any.
There is more water unused and yet
available for irrigation in this county
than in any other section Of the south
west. This is a fact that can readily be
demonstrated.
San Juan county has larger coal
measures than almost any other coun-
ty in the Rocky mountain region. Not
cent goes out of the county for fuel.
These and many other facts which we
will not enumerate at this time tend
again to the conclusion that Aztec and
San Juan county have fattering fu-
ture, and that a railroad will create a
condition behind which progress and
prosperity will follow. as Mr.. Dooley
says, like a horse after hay wagon

ARCHBISHOP CHAPELLE'S OPINION.
Thinks It Wise to Take the Islands ant
Base to Surrender.

New York, October Pa special 20
the Times from Washington says:
Archbishop Chapelle Is ready to start
for the Philippines, and will probably go
by the transport Sherman, leaving San
Francisco November 10, with Father
McKimmon, the soldier priest" who is
to accompany him. He visited the state
and war departments Wednesday and
had interviews with Secretaries Hay
and Root. The archbishop said he was
going to the Philippines with an earnest
desire to assist both the church and
state. He was in Paris during the nego-
tiations leading up to the peace treaty,
and said he thought the taking over of
the Philippines was wise act on our
part. IF we had not taken them some
other country would have done so, for
Spain was ready to sell them. The anti
imperialists," declared the archbishop,
