BIG DEMOCRATIC MEETING.
Stirring Speeches Made by E. B. Nc
Clanahan and Others.

The Democrats held.a meeting at
Kakaako last night, large crowd be-
ing present. ]. ]. Mccarthy presided.
E. B. McClanahan made a stirring
speech in which he discussed the ques-
ton of Imperialism. The Republican
orators were afraid, he declared, to go
upon the platform and discuss that is
sue with him. The speaker then pro-
ceeded to pay his respects to T. Nc
Giants Stewart saying that Stewart
came from the slave race which was
one of the most illiterate on the earth.
Mr.. McClanahan refuted the argument
that the Hawaiians would be treated
like ex-slaves if the Democrats were
elected
E. c. Macfarlane contracted the poll
cies of the Democratic and Republican
parties toward the Hawaiian Islands
and showed how annexation had been
aided and abetted by the Republicans
while it was a Democratic president,
Grover Cleveland. who had withdrawn
the treaty soon after coming into office.
If the Hawaiians were to allow the Re-
publicans to be victorious this year 1t
would put the stamp of approval upon
the policy of that party toward them.
Speeches were also made by John r.
Bush, S. w. Spencer John H. Wise, s.
K. Kali, Samuel Kaloa, d. l.. Kalawaia
and J. o. Carter.

A Unique River.

Unique in its kind is no doubt the
M0conn waterfall in the South Ameri-
can republic of Uruguay, situated
about two miles below the mouth of
the Pipcri Assn river into the Uru-
quay. A great rock divides the river
Into two separate streams In such a
manner that the right arm continues
its flow on til" original level, while
the second arm falls gradually, so that
1t finally lies % feet below the level
of the other arm. The bed of the up
per part of the river is not very deep,
and the water flows partly in right
angle to the river thus forming wa
terfall of more than two miles in
length.
This unique view presents itself to
the traveller, however, only during the
winter, for in the summer. and espe-
cially during the rainy season, the
Uruguay contains such immense guam
titles of water that both arms form
one single stream, navigable even for
the largest freight steamers. The fall
has been known for centuries, and q
description of it wns published rs early
as 1861 by the Rev. Antonlus Scpp, q
missionary from TyrOl, who spent over
90 years among the Indians of Uru-
quay.

Couldn't See the Joke.

Once Offenbnch graciously accepted
the invitation of some friends to visit
them in Etrctat. AS his hosts were
waiting for him at the hotel, one Of
them, who was very intimate with the
composer, suggested:
Let us give him a rousing wei
come"
The idea was taken up and dcvcl-
opcd. One of the party possessed a
collection OF old weapons. This was
rnnsackod, and some two dozen young
fellows were soon equipped as halberd-
icrs. Another mounted donkey and
waved the flag of the club.
When Offenbachs carriage came
in sight, a drum beat, the halberdicrs
presented arms and fireworks were
set off from the balcony ut o'clock
In the afternoon.
AS the composer stepped to the
ground venerable old man approach
cd and presented to him the key of the
hotel on n silver platter.
Offenbach, vain as peacock and
accustomed to all sorts of queer re-
ceptions, entirely failed to see the joke,
though it was as broad rs anything
In "The Grand Duchess" or In Belle
Helene" He took it all seriously as
a tribute to his genius, and, with tears
In his eyes and in voice that shook
with emotion, he murmured
"Gcntlcmcn, this Is too much, too
much"

While the leasing proposition is defend
ed by many specious reaso ms, and by
one or two which may be considered
meritorious, its practical operation, no
matter What form may be given it, is
certain Ito RESULT in Hardship to all who
have small f1ocks or herds, and Ito farm
ers Who utilize vacant land adjacent to
their homesteads for the grazing of
dlairy stock. The inc itable RESULT of a
isasing law will be the grabbing up of
practically all of the public domain by
land and caJttDe syndicates which have
a pull With the officials, ITO the detri-
ment of all other CLASSES. The expert
encel of THE past twenty five years is
ample dem onst1ation of this fact. Re
cabling what HAS been done with rail
road grant ands and state lands, and
lanltls along flowing STREAMS and all wa
tering places, no other conclusion can
be arrived at THAN if the entire public
domain be opened to a system of LEAFS
ing, monopolies of THE MOST Gigantic
character WOULD be created in all of the
public land states. The real question to
be- first determined is whether There
should be amy leasing system alt all, NOT
yeti ais between different SYSTEMS of
leasing. Thus far lit is an undoubted
fact THAT popular sentiment in Colorado
and Wyoming is against amy form OF
grazing laws.

On the Wronu Trail.

The New Mexican p~rophesied that
Democratic weekly papers which pub
lish political LETTERS from SANTA Fe
would have slushy stories about the
meeting of the Republican territorial

made no false prophecy. There are three
papers i'm the territory THAT Use theil
space in printing the stories of the Sam
ia Fe correspondence bureau, which are
mainly tine product of a suspicious mino
that fancies it's own thoughts to be
facts. The political gossip amid incor-
rect assertions in THESE letters amount
to nothing, not stating the REAL existing
conditions Within the Republican par
ty, but they probably deceive owners
of newspapers who print them and
make readers rthink There anSe only a
few indt Wild lhalts in Santa Fee mott losing
sleep while engaged in plots and coun.
ter PILOTS over trifling malttehs. Oh
course, the capital of The iterritory Is
the political center now, but There is nt
more Indulgence in political conspiracy
than can be found alt nanny other places
in the territory when a campaign is ap'
preaching. The Republicans are pre-
pairing to- roll up a majority NEXT fal
that will SETTLE the question as tt
whether the territory Intends Ito remain
Republican. The Democratic paper!

Cheap Wool Production.
New York Post

Very cheap wool production is prom
Used in mississippi, where THERE is an
abundance of wild food for THE sheep,
and where THE climate permits the ami :
malls to run alt large all the year. That
Climatic advantage may be offset, how
ever, by THE disadvantage tthbait the
sheep in a warm climate may Mot clothe
themselves with so good on SO heavy a
fleece as THAT which is needed in the
rig,ors of northern latDtudes. This lat
ter point remains To be determined.
Thus far THE industry lis being followed
primarily for wool. A herb, native to
THE stalte, and eaten with avidity by the
sheep, lis said to give a fine flavor to the
mutton, but only the animalbs, unde-
sirable for good growing ahe killed. In
Jackson county There are 300, 900 head
of sheep, and one town I'M THE county
wias THE market Hast year for loo, 900
pounds OF wool. which solid alt II CENTS

tricts There 10 "a desire to make up the
product alt home, and the town of Ocean
Springs HAS offered a large tract OF land

Miners 10 Look at New Mexico.

From various sources comes informa-
tion THAT the excursion raltes arranged
by the Santa Fe railway from Colorado
points for PERSONS desiring to visit the
mineral districts of New Mexico will re-
suit i'm MANY coming. Never before
have SO nanny Colorado people owned
interests i'm New Mexico. In the Han
over district in Grant county several
Denver men have mines, and their sue
cess has led to THE district being widely
known in Colorado. Grant county offers
opportunities for leasers TO make MON
ey, and many Colorado men with limit
ed capital who FOLLOW the leasing plan
at Cripple Creek are looking to the
southern end of New Mexico ais a field
for the industry. The Cochiti proner-
ties are largely owned by Denver peo-
Pile, as are those of the Mogollon coun-
try, in Socorro county, while mining in
Taos, Colfax and Rio Arriba counties
is conducted TO some extent with Colo
RADIO capital. No district, however, has
dome so much TO advertise New Mexico
in Colorado since copper became king
as Hanover and SANTA Rita combined.
1t is Ito be expected THAT MOST of the
excursionists will go to Grant county
and the Cochiti districts. The Santa Fe
could NOT have taken a more beneficial
course THAN TO stimulate investigation
of THE mineral resources OF New Next
co by THE miners OF Colorado. There
are MANY men of experience and capital
who are now unable to find THE sort of
property THEY desire, in that state, for
the price they are willing Ito pay, while
in New Mexico they can find localities
and p~ropeIties of the sort desired where
prices are still withHn reason.

Hunqer AT Kimberly.

The imprisoned British In the gar1i-
son at Kimberley are said to be living
upon horse meat. By and by the Mis-
souri, mules sent to Africa for military
purposes MAY be considered as excel
lent menu. The canned beef which SOL
diers who went to the tropics made so
much ado over would doubtless delight
the beleaguered troops ait Kimberley.
Everything is good or bad only by conn
parison, and CANNED beef is doubtless
pretty good food Ito men who have long
been in a campaign, especially when
there is NO other sort Ito be had. The
Beers, according to all accounts, are
feeding prisoners taken in combat in a
proper MANNER, and if hunger compels
troops and the non-combatants now be-
sieged to surrender they will be better
off than ait present. But as the galri-
SON numbers 5000 soldiers, surrender,
from a military standpoint, would be a
serious thing, SO long ais there is hope
of relief, permitting the force to get in
to the field against the enemy.

New Mexico Company Making Money.

The FL Paso & Northeastern railway
and it's subsidiary coal company cannot
be clearing less than 81, 900 daily now
upon the coal hauled to Ell Paso. and
the mines have but begun to produce.
That is "a showing not to be beaten in
any country. The output of the best
opening will, within TWO months, ac-
cording to Coal Mine Inspector Flem-
ing, soon be twenty car loads per day,
while all tine openings now give but
sixteen cars per day, because no effort
has been made to make chambers from
which to take the coal until during the
present month, the output coming from
inclinea and several ~crosscuts. The
management believes that Within six
months the mines will yield fifty cars
of coal daily, which will sell for 81, 800.
When this condition in development
shall be reached the profit to the COM
pany and the railway should be, at a
rough estimate, from $4,000 to $4,000
daily. One opening in a mountain shows
a 6-foot vein of coal, without fault or
variation for the distance of $50 feet,
and the breast of the incline is still in
the coal. This deposit is supposed to be
through the whole mountain, and will
furnish work for miners for MANY years.

Quarterly dividend might be Increased

give the company $50, 900, 900 per annum
TO divide among the Stockholders. The
market price of THE stock OF this COM
pany has BEEN boosted Ito $547, 900, 900
because of THE enormous profits wrung
from the consumers. The dividends are

But two newspapers i'm this territory
have Endorsed the proposition for the
ONE in Colorado so far as known. While
a few Of the calttlemen of the territory
MAY have expressed themselves in ia
vor OF leasing because they desire to be

THAT a lease law would be Ito the detri-

have taken any steps to support the
proposition, with the exception of one
from %Illinois, who has in the Peeos wall
ley a breeding and feeding farm, and
would like to secure a monopoly of the
range close to his alfalfa ranch.
