Has to Import Miners.

The New Mexico Coal Company, op
Grating at Captain, Lincoln county, CON
tinues to import miners from Illinois,
West Virginia, Pennsylvania, or
wherever they can be secured. The rea-
SON for this is that there are no idle
coal miners in the west. The company
has not been paying the regular scale
of wages during development work in
opening the mines, but with the extern
sive production of coal NOW being COM
menced, it is expected that the miners
will receive the same pay as those else
where. An active miner working where
the conditions are fair for getting out
coal makes from S. to- $14 per day,
though at the mines at Madrid, in San
ia Fee county, where the veins are small
and the lei must work lying down,
they have not been able to earn such
large per diem, which is one reason the
output from the district has been ltm-
tied. The claim is made that there are
large veins at Captain, and while coal
mining is not altogether a white shirt
sort Of a job, the industry there may
prove to be so remunerative as to tempt
the sort Of men who want big pay to
become grimy IONS of toll.

Texas has taken from the New Mexi-

last week, and the other may expect a
similar fate. Texas has a few more men
in the New Mexico penitentiary who
could we'll be spared when their terms
end. 1t might be we'll to send an in
ventory Of the prisoners from Texas to
the peace officers of the Lone Star state
and see if they are wanted for old
crimes. They might thus be taken t.
localities from which they would never
return to New Mexico. The territory has
enough bad men of her OWN without
taking recruits from Texas.

Unnecessary Beqqina.

The American women in London who
are appealing to this country to furnish
relief funds for the soldiers in service
in South Africa are probably doing so
to win popularity in England, for GER
tainly Great Britain has no more need
to appeal for charity in caring for her
troops than the United States had to
in this country Thought it necessary to
start relief funds in London, nor did
these American women across the cea
take the trouble to collect money for
their fellow countrymen during the late
wars. Most assuredly, the government
Of Great Britain is not encouraging an
appeal to the outside world, although
the hospital ship Maine, fitted out with
American money, has been taken into
service. Doubtless England would
rather have neutrality observed by the
American people with regard to indi-
vidual donations, for If giving to either
side Of the contest becomes the fad, the
Beers may receive very substantial aid

England can take care of her own
armies, and wishes to Shut out help for
the enemy. America will never pass the
hat IN Europe for aid, and it is decid-
eddy out of place for American women
on the other side to be asking help for
British soldiers when the British gov
eminent is able and willing to care for
her own troops.

Helping New Mexico.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat has
shown it's good will toward New Next
co upon more than one OCCASION The
latest instance was in requesting OF Col.
R. r. TwitchelI a compilation of facts
with regard to the financial condition
and material progress of the people of
the territory, the taxable wealth and
real valuations of property. Colonel
Twitchell has presented, after much
labor in compilation, a very excellent
and complete statement concerning the
number of people who have bank ac-
counts, the amount of money on depos-
it, and the solvency of the territory,
with a correct showing as to the way In
which official business Is conducted.
The article in the Globe-D Democrat of
last Sunday is reprinted on the third
page of the New Mexican to-day, and
should be read by every person in the
territory, to many of whom the facts
given will be somewhat of a surprise,
especially as to bank deposits and the
classes Of people to whom they belong.

The Press OF New Mexico.

The press OF New Mexico, as a. rule,
was never before so uniformly fair and
honest I'M dealing with public meas
ures and i'm referring TO prominent men
of the various parties. While many
newspaper men have long been in serv-
ice, many have passed IN to other local
tiles or found other employment. Some
of the most worthy have passed from
the field of action, and some who did nc
honor to the profession. In general Il
has been a cas- of the survival of this
t1ttest. With the advance Of the mora
standing and regard for the proprdeties
and decency, cantankerous attacks upon
personal character through newspapers
have become less frequent, and do MOI
in any case meet with public approval
Some newspaper men who in thei1
earlier days We're inclined to indulge in
cruel and unfair comments concerning
other men in the profession and of po-
litical opponents, have given up the
fairer with age and experience. It is to
be hoped the political year which has
just been inaugurated will not be dis
graced by articles of d~isgraoeful tone,
in either Democratic or Republican
newspapers. Such publications convey
poor Impressions of the character Of
public men, Of newspaper writer's and OF
the people, when read away from the
territory. They likewise have a tenlden-
cy to lower the general tone of a people
who are thus assured that there is no
honesty in public life. which is not true.
One side making such attacks general
ly provokes the other to maannesss, and
then the impartial, If they believe either
side, believe both. Harm and not bane-
fit results from vindictive attacks
through the press. There are times and
cases wherein a statement of facts CON-
corning the acts Of public officials and
of private individuals is called for from
the press but continual carping and
fault-finding at opponents, just to in
jure, or from force Of habit, are out Of
place. 1t is not the mission Of the de-
cent press to throw dirt to please a few
who wish to see somebody befouled. In
diligence in this pastime as often leaves
those who indulge it as dirty, on more
80, than the n who practices it.

Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult
to get rid Of.
There is but one way to cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe-

the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.
