A MISSISSIPPI editor perpentrates
the following: s'Fish down into your
pockets and dig up the dust, the edi-
tor Is hungry and the papers about to
bust. We've trusted you for several
months and did it with smile, SO
just return the compliment and trust
us awhile. Our wife she needs some
stockings and our baby needs dress;
Jimmie needs some britches and so
does Kate and Bess. Pud is on the
hog train and Peggy sick with grief,
and good gosh almighty can't yougive
a man relief. Shell out the nickels,
and turn loose the dimes, turn 'em
loose and whistle and we'll all have
better times; there will be fewer
patches on the bosom of our pants,
and we'll make the paper better If we
get half a chance. Don't give us
that old story, long gone to seed bout
taking more family papers than the
family want to read, but help to feed
the printer, and he'll help your town
to grow, and thus escape the sulphur
in the regions down below.

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE
Sent TO the House of Delegates
Yesterday Morning.

This Oisposes of the Talk of a Ramp
House, and Shows that the Republic

ing in Session to Receive House Com

Grafton to Investigate the Dent Bro
hard Case.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, Jan. 20
Republicans are beginning to realize
that no unfalrness is contemplated in
the Democratic programme with refer
ence to the determination of contests
for seats in the House of Delegates.
The committee on privileges and
elections reported this morning and
recommended that subcommittee be
sent to Grafton. The minority side
endeavored to attach amendments,
which would have embarrassed the
committee in arriving at a just con-
clusion as to whether Brohard or Dent
is entitled to the seat from Taylor
county, but the committee recon-
mendation prevailed.
Ignoring the Senate's discourtesy,
and without awaiting action of that
body on the joint resolution, the COM
mittee left for Taylor county yester-
day afternoon.
The committee consists of Messrs.
Jake Fisher and w. L. Mansfield,
Democrats, and II. 2. Malcolm, Re
publican The committee will pro-
coed with all possible dispatch in or
der to reach a conclusion before the
balloting for United States Senator
commences on Tuesday next.
The disputed ballots will be in
spected and recounted, but Democrats
express themselves as unfavorable to
Prosecuting Attorney Ira Robinson's
scheme.
Mr.. Robinson proposes to introduce
affidavits of all Republican voters in
certain precincts, to establish the fact
that the original count was correct.
The Senate adjourns from day to
day and the Senate committee on
privileges and elections stubbornly re-
fuse to take up the Kidd, Marcum
and Ashby cases until the determine
tion of the House to ascertained.
The Senate committee adjourned I'M
til Saturday.
Speaker Mckinney announced his
committees yesterday morning and
they are already at work upon matters
referred to them. The committee
clerks will be announced to-day and
the anxiety Of many aspirants will be
relieved.

House yesterday.

The New Board Of Equalization.

The appointments made by Gov. Otero
Yesterday of the members of the board
of equalization were as follos:-
For the first district, Nenceslao Jara-
milo; for the second district, Alexandra
Sandoval: for the third district, Numa
Ravmond; for the fourth district. J. S.
Duncan; for the fifth district, j. w.
Poe.
These nominations were Immediately
confirmed by the council by unanimous
vote. There is no question but what
the governors selection for these inn
portant positions are among the best
citizens of the territory. Better selec-
tons, indeed could not have been made.
Mr.. Raymond has been a resident of
New Mexico for nearly forty years. Mr..
Poe for thirty. Mr.. Duncan for twenty
years. Messrs. Sandoval and Jaramillo
are natives. whose families came to the
territory hundreds of years ago, and
who are from families that have been
noted for centuries for their public
spirit, patriotism, and influence. They
are all men of property and have the
best interests of the people as a COM
monwealth at heart; at the same time
they are intimately acquainted with the
conditions Of the territory, and will see
to it that in matters of taxation, even
handed and strict justice shall be done
to all; the poor and the rich, corpor-
ations and private individuals, land
owners and merchants, and indeed, all
classes of our citizens.
The New Mexican congratulates Gov
ernor Otero upon these nominations. If
the remainder of the territorial appoint
ments, that he will send in this session,
are in the same line, and there is every
reason to believe that they will be, the
territory will, for the coming two years,
have the best set of officials and mem
bers of boards to govern territorial in
situations, within its history.

entirely uncalled for, and again bespeaks
the enyious mind. When that building
is completed, and every one knows full
well such IA structure is not only re-
quired, but will prove a matter of
economy, New Mexico will have n of
the most convenient and most handsome
capitol buildings in the whole country,
and that at a cost of only $l35, 900.
There are no scandals connected with
its building, every dollar has been hon
estlv spent and accounted for. In fact
the entire article is nothing but Il tame
attempt to cover up some of the quest
lonable dealings of Colorado's statesmen
at the expense of Il poorer territory.
The Western Christian Advocate
would fulfill its purposes to a much bet
ter advantage if it would contine its
columns to matters on which it has at
least partial information. All the peo-
pie of New Mexico ask from religious
or other papers is that the truth be TOLD
about the territory and the acts of the
governor and other officials. If thai
were done there would be no trouble
arising from official acts or from the
| onduct of public business

San Luis Valley" of which the literary
departments Of the local railroads were
wont to sing in such high praise as Il
most delightful winter season resort, has
become almost another Chilkoot Pass in
the severity of its winter climate, with
snow storms and bowling blasts raging
continually. and with the mercury dane
ing between 20 and 80 below zero, Up
in the mountains IT is tcnfold worse. as
the latest dispatches show, and not a
few mountain towns are in danger of
starvation. The last cold spell, which
has not been equalled III many years,
and in some localities never even APP
proXimated, has extended clear to CEN
traI Florida, so that the farmers
of that state are congratulating
themselves on having given up
trying to grow oranges in their now
steadily deteriorating climate. and have
taken to raising Havana tobacco. for
which Florida soil has been found par
ticularly well adapted. Snow fell this
season in southern Arizona, ever PhOe-
nix not escaping, and sleighing was in
dulged in at Globe and other sultry
points, and there was sleighing and skat-
ing at Ell Paso.
Of course in the nature of things, New
Mexico has not entirely escaped the in
Fiction of severe weather, but consid-
ering what the rest of the country has
suffered and is still suffering, New Mex
leo people may consider themselves very
fortunate. The mercury earlier in this
week fell down to : degrees below in
this city, while at Las Vegas it recorded
25 below. and in the mountain settle.

But the severity was brief. and in Santa
Fe the cold is now not at all opppres'

of snow, and the mercury registered fol
one day . degrees above the cipher a

The speculation now is, are the winter

A Study In Cold Weather.

The remarkable freaks of the weather
clerk for the winter of 1S9S-'99 are sure
to occasion inquiry and speculation as
to the causes Of the immense amount of
snowfall and continuous cold, the latter
having been practically unbroken since
the middle or latter part of October.
Parts of the west that in years past have
been noted for an equable climate and
much sunshine, and on account of which
have built up regulations as desirable
winter resorts for eastern invalids, have
experienced climatic changes that have
well nigh reversed such regulations.
Colorado is Il special sufferer in this
respect. Twelve to Is years ago, that
state, according to old timers, was en-
ioying winter seasons brief and not at
~ severe. Now, Colorado winters have
become u terror, and even the Sunny

There are in Minnesota nearly 3, 000,-
600 acres Of waste land, from which the
trees have been cut, and on which no
taxes will ever be paid. These lands are
reverting to the state for nonpayment
Of taxes as fast as the lumbermen can
get rid of them. Active steps are being
taken by members of the coming state
legislature and others interested toward
the outlining of plan by which the
state shall gradually reforest these mil
lions of acres and hold the lands as a
public property to be numbered as occa-
sion may require and the state may di-
rect. 1t is claimed that millions of dol
lars can be earned by this course, and
that the numbering industry in Mime
sofa can be continued indefinitely and
Almost uninterruptedly.
These new lands, if forested at once,
will be ready for the ak by the time
the present forests are gone, if the
young trees on the present timbered
lands are preserved and not ruined by
the process of cutting those now large
enough to make board. In Europe
the forested acres earn from 81 cents to
several dollars per acre per year.

Christmas trees cut down and put on

by a wanton waste and extravaganza
which jeopardize the welfare of mil
lions Of human beings yet unborn is OBJ
vious to every thinking man. ="

ArbOr Day Notes.

Wood, and not gold, is the basis Of
national wealth.
Trees shelter animals and homes from
the winds of winter
Trees furnish material for great va
riety of useful things.
"The tree is the father Of the rain
and the mother of the fountain. -
Trees improve the climate by shelter
ing the ground so that it is warmer in
winter and cooler in summer.
Children can inspire the tree and
shrub adornment of churchyards and
public squares.
Children should plant trees along the
highways if such work is not done by
older people.
1.-THE wealth, beauty, fertility and
healthfulness of the country largely de-
pend upon the conservation Of our for
ests and the planting of trees
GAS the leaves of trees are said to
absorb all noxious qualities of the air
and to breathe forth purer atmosphere,
so it seems as if they drew from us all
sordid and angry passions and breathed
forth peace and philanthropy"
When it is desirable to SOW seeds
rather than to transplant, they should
be placed in fertile and well drained
land, in places sheltered from cold or
hot winds and drought Seeds of trees
should be gathered as soon as fallen. If
the season is dry, they must be watered
and tended after being planted.
