Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1899-07-03
Fnfrrte FSifc

One who reads newspapers from the
big eastern cities notices the absence of
sneers at the native citizens, the polit-
ical affairs and the financial condition
of the territory. Of late there have been
many favorable comments from news
papers of both political parties, espe-
cially during the period in which the
Roosevelt reunion has been under dis
cussion. The organization of the Roose-
welt regiment and its good work: the
loyalty of a territory that is kept in
leading strings. and hat might have
been expected to decline to enthuse ,or
behalf of a government that has failed
to give the people the full rights tr
which they are entitled. and which have
been extended to some less worthy Sec
lions: the unanimitv with which thf
citizens supported the financial iudg-
| 'nent of the Republican party as t.
finances when it was expected that 'ora
interests MIGHT lead in a different direc'
| ton; the ability shown by the terrific
| rial administration and the Legislature
in getting the territory on a bette
| financial basis, have all had their infu
| ence. These are some of the reasons
why to-day, instead Of there being com
ments Of a deprecatory character, Their
are many of a tone gratifying to thos'
who desire to see New Mexico advance
The territory, by good works, is re
deeming herself from all the evil in
pressions that have existed, in mos
cases unjustly.
The reunion at Las Vegas did no
cause the high esteem in which New
Mexico is now held, though undoubted
ly adding to that kind regard. But tn
occasion set the editors and public mel
to thinking and talking of the territory
and out of the abundance of their heart
their mouths have spoken.

AGAINST DIsINCORPoRATIoN

(RosWell Live Stock Champion.)
Now great things have been done in
and around Roswell. Its first master
mind was a great man-great in it's true
sense; great in the control Of men, yet
greater far in his utilization of natures
wealth. Others followed in his steps,
and a village, then a town, and now a
city, has been built up. Now that there
is a city and the enterprising intelli-
gence of many countries has located
here and improved and beautitied the
spot, transforming the desert into a rose
plat. The coming of 1000 souls has
caused a demand for good roads and
sidewalks and modern co%nveniences
Many of the owners of the very land
which was a few years ago freely given
to them by the government, want to
have the value of their property ad-
vanced without giving anything in re-
turn to the men who bought lots, erect
ed houses and made town property val
liable. We have seen cities, which, to
all appearances, had just as many nat
ural advantages as Roswell, crucified
by the same spirit of picayunish greed
To disincorporate Roswell on the
himsy question of sidewalks would be a
burning disgrace.

Responsibility for Trusts.

The Democrats had despaired OF the
utility of attacking tariff protection in
the mex campaign, because the present
law is working so admirably thai the
country has no desire to listen to a dis
cussion of it's minor faults. But the as
sertion by one of the great trust mana
gers that protection fosters trusts has
given the Democrats a cue that if they
can make the public believe the COM
binations are due to this cause, pro-
tective tariff will be given a body blow.
The particular trust that voiced the
declaration upon which the Democracy
bases it's hopes happens to be one that
the Republicans interfered with by
passing the present law taxing foreign
| sugar. The sugar trust thrived best I'M
| der the Democratic tariff law, when the
raw sugar which it purchased in Europe
/ was taxed only according to a schedule
| written by the trusts attorneys, and in
| a manne to assist in maintaining a
monopoly.
The trusts are independent Of protec-
| ton as a rule, and the greatest OF them
has paid no attention to tariff. There
is no tariff on oil. yet the oil monopoly

regardless of facts.
The principal cause for the great fu

abundance of money into circulation
and the trusts are formed to take ad
vantage of the desire to invest in pros

the public pays the cost under the belle
that the monopolies will be able to Civ

combinations could not have sold stock
because the people had no money an
no confidence in Industrial investments
The Republican party and protectiv

so far as they have brought such pros

Volunteer Officers.

There was CONSERVATION In many
quarters the other day when a Wash
Ington telegram announced that Gener-
al Otis would choose all of the 470 Off
GERS needed for the 10000 troops to be
sem to him. AS a matter of fact, the
president probably never contemplated
any such arrangement, because there Is
plenty of material in this country from
which to select tried officers eager to go
the islands. The latest definite state
ment of the pl esident's intentions indi-
Gates that first choice Of places will go
to volunteer officers who have rendered
valuable service in Cuba and Porto
Rico; next to available officers Of the
regular army, Of which there are few;
third to volunteer officers who were not
on active duty but who showed merit in
camps, where they were quartered in
readiness for a call to the firing line. In
the past the charge has not Deer made
that any discrimination has been prac-
ticed by the war department in favor Of
Republicans in selecting officers. and 1t
Is not expected that there will be any in
the present instance, so long as Demo-
Gratis equally DESTROYS Of Joining In the
work offer themselves.

WAGES Of Women.

No arbitrary distinction should be
made in the wages of men and of wom-
en-; there should be no discount on the
teacher, the telegraph operator, the fac
tory operative, because she is a woman;
the same amount and quality of labor
should receive as much pay when done
by a as by a man. 1t Is an
inequity, to be Indignantly shamed by
all men, that because she is a woman,
a teacher in the common schools,
shall be offered one-half the salary of
her fellow-teacher, no more gifted. nc
more faithful, but who happens to be a
man.
Multitudes of women are obliged to
provide for their own support-poor
girls before marriage, women who never
marry, and have no relatives able to
care for them, wives whose husbands
can not earn enough to support their
families, widows left with children tc
rear, a vast host beyond the dream OF
those who have not looked into this sub
ject. There Is palpable need for an
open door to disappearing work and
for ability to enter and wrest a liveli-
