Town Improvement Societies,

In New England town and village i'm
provement societies are doing much to
improve the appearance of vii ages,
towns and cities. The societies work
somewhat on the plan of the Woman's
Board Of Trade in Santa Fe. They have,
however, branch societies in every pre-
cinct. in every ward and in every dis
trict. Each member, in many of the
branch societies, pledges himself to
beautify the surroundings of his own
home and to assist in a general way in
identifying the town or village in
which he lives. The school children are
interested in the movement, and con-
tribute considerable toward planting
shade trees, keeping the streets clean
and in encouraging a public spirit that
takes a pride in the appearance of the
hamlet or the town. Wonders have been
performed by these societies in trans
garden of beauty. In the large cities
like Boston many great public improve
mentS have been accomplished directly
and indirectly through those societies.
New Mexico stands in need of an or
ganized movement of that kind. Many
towns and villages in the territory are
quaint, but far from beautiful. Yet,
there is here all the material to make
beautiful cities and hamlets, and it
takes but comparatively little work and
little expense to transform places that
are at present %unlovely into beautiful
spots that would be a delight to the
stranger as we'll as to the resident.

A Certain and the Only Cure.

The public announcement is made
that the cures effected at the s%anitari-
UNI for the army at Fort Bayard are
marvellous. In less than a year twelve
cases of incipient tuberculosis have
been cured, and in all cases that had
not advanced too far there are such
hopeful signs of recovery that it has
been established beyond doubt that
New Mexico climate offers a GER
tain cure for consumption If too much
of the lung tissue has not been eaten
away. This should be glad tidings to
the thousands and hundreds of thou
sands who have just come under the
spell Of those great destroyers, the tu-
berculosis bacilli. 1t would not be amiss
for the government to publish the fact
broadcast over the world that in New
Mexico, under government supervision,
1t has been proven that this climate
offers q sure cure, and for the present
the only cure, for consumption. The
fact should be taught In every school,
and be proclaimed in every hamlet,
town and city, so that every person
who is attacked by consumption can
choose between a residence in New
and certain death.

Proqressiyeness In the Southwest.

Albuquerque has voted SIS, 900 worth
of bonds for the building of a viaduct
in order to secure a new depot and a
new hotel, and has given 5000 and a
site for a new hospital. Prescott has
raised $4,0 900 in order to make available
a gift of Andrew Carnegie for a public
library. FL Paso intends to raise $50, 900
to secure the extension If the New
Mexico and Arizona railroad. Las Cru
ces raised over $4,000 to liquidate an in
.debtedness of the New Mexico College
of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts.
Tucson intends to spend $3.50, 900 for
public water works. Las Vegas will
spend $780, 900 for a new school house.
Ration has just completed a $40, 900
school house, and Roswell is building a
similar school edifice, and is at the
same time putting in a system of sewer
age. Who can say, therefore. that the
towns of the southwest are not progress
sive? A community in the southwest
must be wide awake and very liberal in
order to keep up with the procession.

The International Mining Congress.

The mining congress which convenes
at Milwaukee next Tuesday will be the
most important gathering of mining
men ever held in this country. The con
gress Is international in it's scope, but
will pay most if not all Of it's attention
to the condition Of the mining industry
in the United States. The two most i'm
portant discussions will be "The De-
partment of Mining" by ex-Gov. L. B.
Prince, of Santa Fe, and Revision of
Mining Laws" by Charles J. Moore, of
Cripple Creek. Ex-Governor Prince will
discuss in his paper the proposition that
the government should establish a de-
partment Of mining co-equal with the
department of agriculture and other de-
partments. Such a department would
be presided over by a secretary of min
ing, and one of it's functions would be
to establish a number of experiment
stations in various sections of the coun-
try, where tests will be made Upon the
character and the grade of ores pro-
duced and relative information con-
corning the possibilities of each section
collated and distributed at large. The
last session of congress had a bill for
the establishment of such a depart
ment before it, and some two months
prior to the adjournment the commit
tee reported favorably upon it, but as
the document was pigeon-holed nothing
was done. 1t is proposed to see that at
the next session of the national cor
gress the bill shall receive proper at
tention and be pushed to passage If pos
sible.
Mr.. Moore, in speaking of necessary
revisions of mining laws. will point to
the fact that as the law now stands in
the United States, the man who owns
the apex Of the vein, which is that por-
ton which %outcrops on the surface, has
a right to follow the vein downward to
the center of the earth, no matter into
whose property it may dip after leav-
ing the confines Of his claim. Hundreds
lions have been expended in fighting
out this question between various min
ing companies, and it Is proposed to
find out at the Milwaukee congress
whether it would not be more just to
give each man that portion of the vein
contained within planes extended YER
tically down the boundaries of his
claim, rather than to let the owner of
the apex follow the vein on all dips.
The former position will be vigorously
advocated by many adherents Of this
plan, which prevails in British Column
'bia and Australia with great satisfac-
ton.
AS the congress will outline many
measures that will probably become
national legislation in the future, New
Mexico should be well represented, and
every one of its delegates should make
1t a point to attend all the sessions Of
the congress. New Mexico Is the future
mining center of the west, and its mines
are bound to become the most famous
in the world.

SENATOR ANDREWS TALKS.
He Says That the Stephens Bill Is d Most
UBIQUITOUS Measure.
(Dona Ana County Republican.)

Dona Ana County Republican,
Senator w. H. Andrews, of Pennsyl-
vania, arrived in Las Cruces yesterday
morning, accompanied by e. ]. Murray.
Senator Andrews came here on BUSH
ness, and in the course of the day he
called at this office. Speaking of New
Mexico, he said:
II feel as much at home in New Mex
leo as l do in Pennsylvania. My inter-
ests and the many pleasant associa-
tons formed here cause me to have the
welfare Of the territory as much at
heart as I have hat of my native
state"
In the course of the conversation the
Stephens bill was referred to, about
which the senator said:
This is a most Ubiquitous measure.
When it vas brought to my attention,
with the request that I assist in defeat
ing it, / Immediately wrote to my
friends in the house and senate, and
their responses so far received lead me
to believe that any bill Of this charac-
ter cannot have favorable considera-
ton, even in committee. 1t would inflict
a great hardship on New Mexicans, and
would be a grievous wrong.
Eastern capitalists are giving this
territory far more attention than it's
residents realize, and if they r e fairly
treated and it's resources properly
placed before them, New Mexico will
soon boom. 1t has a great future, and
it would be a cause of great satisfac-
ton to me to have my hopes for it's
prosperity realized"
Senator Andrews plant at Andrews,
N. M, is running every day, treating
fifty tons of ore daily. 1t ave the
values so closely that the tailings do
not exceed $1.20, and run as low as 40
cents. He deserves great credit for his
courage in sticking to it and bringing
out successfully what at first threat
ened to be a failure.

Some of the eastern papers do not like
it that congress appropriated S. 900, 900
for an exposition at st. Louis. The
Springfield, Mass, Republican even as
serts that the appropriation was made
merely to help along a st. Louis real
estate boom. These papers do not know
evidently that the task undertaken by
St. Louis is an enormous one and will
be of more benefit to other states and
territories than it will be to Missouri it.
self. 1t may do St. Louis more harm
than good. Chicago suffered for a long
time after the Worlds fair, although in
ternational expositions were more popu-
lar in 1898 than they are likely to be in
1903. The people of st. Louis will have
to raise $40, 900, 900 before the congress
sional appropriation becomes available.
Those who contribute may never get
their money back even indirectly in i'm
proved trade conditions. The great
TransmississIppi region, however, will
be benefited by the exposition, but st.
Louis will have to bear the burden.

Ell Paso is advertising it's advantages
as a summer resort. One of it's papers
coyly acknowledges hat the thermom-
eter, at least as far as records go, is not
likely to indicate more than 1913 in the
shade, although if placed in the sun it
is sure to run owe at the top. Under
ordinary circumstances the tempera-
ture does not range above 102, and to-
gether with the delightful sand storms,
an every day afternoon diversion, the
climate of Ell Paso is not much worse
than that of Hades.

The New York newspapers express
establishment at the fact that the census
enumerators all over the country report
that they had less trouble in enumerat-
ing the foreign population whose
alleged ignorance might have been ex-
pected to cause annoyance, than they
had in taking the census in fashionable
parts of cities and towns. 1t is evident
that the ignorant foreigner has less to
hide than have the better to do people
who resent to.have strangers look at the
skeletons they have in their closets.
The people who live closer to nature are
not as sensitive about their personal af-
fairs as are the people whose life is con-
siderable of sham and hypocrisy.

A few months ago the Santa Fe Rail
road company decided to enlarge its
shops at Topeka but the owners of the
land needed for that purpose doubled
the price of their land when the com-

the land could not be bought for that
amount the contemplated improvements
