"a Breezy Time" is a musical

Beware OF the Greeks.

Having succeeded by injunction meth
DDS in destroying the enterprise by
which Mesilla valley farmers would
have had a successful irrigation system
in operation ere this with good crops
this year, instead of a failure, the editor
Of the Ell Paso Times o says:
eel Paso can enlist the aid of the
Texas delegation in congress and be of
service to our New Mexico friends"
Having at last realized that Texas
can not deprive New Mexico of her wa
ter, and Ell Paso secure it, the schemers
wish to come in with New Mexico to get
a share of the benefits the government
seems likely to bestow on the territory.
The offer to help instead of continuing
to hurt, rather late. FL Paso has
lever been friendly to New Mexico. If
the injunction sought against the Ele-
plant Butte dam could be made perma-
nent and the dam asked at Ell Paso be
built, every ditch on the Rio Grande in
New Mexico would be treated in the
same way. The action of the dam syn
dictate at Ell Paso, for which the Times
has always been spokesman, should
cause New Mexico to remember the adj
vice to beware of the Greeks bearing
gifts New Mexico should be careful
of committing herself to any proposition
which Ell Paso might wish to spring in
a joint conference.

Fish Propagation.

The government is doing much to
stock the streams of the entire country
with fish for a food supply. The great
bulk of the work has been in the %collec.-
ton and distribution of the eggs and fry
and commercial food fish, and this year
more cod, white fish, pike, perch, bass,
fiat fish and lobster have been planted
than ever before. So successful was the
experiment made several years ago for
the introduction of shad and striped
bass on the Pacific coast that the plant
ing of those two food fishes on that
coast has been suspended. The shad
catch on the Pacific now ranges between
1000, 900 and 1000, 900 annually. The
total cost of introducing the shad into
Pacific waters was only $4,000.
In the Rocky mountain region there
are stations in Montana, Colorado and
South Dakota for the propagation OF
eastern brook trout, grayling mountain
or black spotted trout. From these sta
tons 5000, 900 fry We're distributed in the
streams of Colorado, Washington, Ida
no, Montana, South Dakota, New Mex
leo, Arizona and Indian Territory. From
the middle states stations in Iowa, Hi
nois, Missouri and Texas for the propa-
CATION of brook and rainbow trout,
black bass and crappie, 1000, 900 fry OF
all kinds We're distributed in stocking

o THE WEST.


Roosevelt differs from most public
men of the east in that he has lived in
the west, and is in sympathy with west
arn sentiment. He knows what it is to
be a cowboy and ride the range He
knows what kind of men make up the
west, and he "a sympathize with them
IN their efforts to build up their part Of
the Union and reclaim it from it's will
1erness character.
A mar of this kind, possessed of more
than ordinary intellectual vigor, could
hardly fail to make an impression upon
h., time and the men Of his FRA. WhAr.
ever he goes Governor Roosevelt will
make friends, and they will be enthusi-
tic for him. AS his troopers of the rough
riders We're willing to die for him, so in
other fields he will secure followers If
that kind. This was shown by the re-
ception given him in Las Vegas and he
impression made by him upon the pop
ulation of that part of New Mexico.
Roosevelt can not be ignored. He has =
future, and whether they want to or
not. the politicians will have to take
him into account.
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1899-06-30

The opposition of the wal department
to accepting state military organiza-
lions for service is doubtless due to the
desire to select regular officers for COM
mand of the troops. If existing organi-
cations be accepted, there will be great
to have the officers chosen by
the men retained in their position, and
as great pressure to secure the places
for those without military experience
or qualifications. If the army can be in
creased by recruiting, then the officers
will mostly be promoted or appointed
from the regular army. Naturally, there
is great influence brought to bear
through army channels to have this
course pursued.

Why does not Ell Paso try to connu-
biate with Colorado on the water ques-
ton? Colorado has the water. Maybe
Colorado would join Ell Paso in getting
the government to regulate the water
supply so Texas could have a portion of
the Rio Grande flow, and maybe not.
At any rate, there is scope for Ell Paso
energy in talking Colorado into a divi-
sion. She can better afford to divide
with Texas than can New Mexico. Still,
If Ell Paso would only refrain from en-
joining the building of reservoirs across
the line, she would be welcome to the
surplus accumulated by the enterprise
of her neighbors.

THE PASSING OF THE HORSE

| drove my old horse Dobhin fun slowly
toward the town
One beautiful spring morning. The rising
sun looked down
And saw us slowly jogging and drinking
In the balm
OF honeyed breath Of clover fields. We
lissed, in natures calm,
To chirping squirrel and wh1stling BIRD,
the robin and the wren
The sound of life and love and peace came
Ger the fields again.
Way back behind the wagon there came
a tandem bike,
Appealing long to beat the wind! l never
saw the like!
They started blythe road was wide, old
Dobbin feeling good,
The quiet calmness of the morn had liv-
ened up his mood,
And, stretching out adown the road, he
chased those cyclers two,
And Dobbin, in his younger days, wal
distanced by but few.
We sped along about a mile; it was a mer-
ry chase,
But Dobbin gave it up at last, and, drop
ping from the race,
He ooked at me, as If to say: "Old man,
I'm in disgrace!
The horse is surely passing blythe bike
has got his place"
And all tina day, while in the town, old
Dobbin's spirits fell.
His stout old pride was broker sure; the
reason I could tell.
But when, that night, we trotted back
from town, below the hill
We met two weary cyclers who waved at
us a bill
That had a big V on it and said 1t would
be mine
If I would let them ride with us and put
their bike behind.
And so whistled softly. and Dobbin
Winked at me.
'I guess the horse will stay. old man. He's
puncture proof, you see!'

Getting ~ExtraYngRnt.

A man went into an Auburn store
the other day and said that he wanted
a whip. 81 want a better whip than
them I've got lately" said he. "I've
been buying 10 cent whips, but now l
want a good one. a more expensive
one"
"All right said the %storekeeper.
'sHow will this one do for 80 cents?'
"Well; l dunno replied the GUS
toner. 81 guess I'd better have one a
little cheaper than that" Then the
storekeeper showed him one for 90 cents.
"Now if you'll show me one about hall
between this and a ten center l guess
it'll be just what l want, said the Gus
toner. The storekeeper did so, and the
customer bought it. He went off well
pleased with his ''more expensive
whip.-Lewistcn Sun.
