TWO SIDES OF WEATHER STORY.
An Injury to One Community Sends Bles
sings To Others.

The report that the severe storms of
1899 had been of great benefit after all
to the ranges of New Mexico has been
spread to the weather office at Wash
ington, an official of which says:
I'VE notice that one of the severest
storms, most disastrous in the eastern
| states, is said to have been of untold
benefit to the ranges of New Mexico
and Colorado. The large amount of
! snow hat falls in the mountains may
| avert a water famine during the coming
| summer. Again, we often notice that
the winds which bring heavy rains to
the Pacific coast bring drouths to the
interior, and the winds that destroy
i vessels on the Atlantic coast bring rains
to the interior of the Atlantic states.
The cold waves that injure the vegeta-
ton of the Gulf states dissipate the yell
low fever. No matter how mucn man
| complains of the weather, it would seem
| after all to be very satisfactory to the
human race in general: it would seem
to be a case where man grumbles at the
blessings that are showered upon him,
1 and we believe that a careful review of
every aspect of the question would tend
to make us better content with existing
arrangements. Every newspaper para
graph enumerating the injury done by
a storm should be paralleled by one
enumerating it's blessings.
"a certain snow storm is said to have
cost the Chicago & Alton Railway
Company over $25, 900; the wages paid
to the snow shovelers, the diminut!on of
freight and passenger business, the ex-
ira cost of handling traffic, the spelling
of delicate snow plows, are all counted
as a loss to the railroad; but the farm
err welcomes the snow for the good it
does to the crops in the ground, and the
| railroad will doubtless find it's losses in
| the winter more than balanced by its
gain in business during the summer"

Headed for New Mexico,

The movement of settlers from the
east which in past years was directed
to the Dakotas, Iowa, Kansas and Ne
braska by the railroad companies, is
now turning toward Colorado and WyO-
ming. Inquiries are being received in
large numbers from farmers in Mime
sofa, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri and the
other middle. states, who desire to settle
in Colorado. This tide will Don be
turned toward New Mexico, for this
territory offers climatic advantages SUI
perior even to those of Colorado. in ad-
dition to soil, which is better in every
respect to that of the other states, the
territory possesses such an equablc and
eXhilarating climate that farming of
any kind under it's influence becomes
bination is one that is hard to resist,
and if the question of water storage is
solved successfully New Mexico will be-
come a great agricultural state. The
bureau of immigration is daily sending
out twenty to thirty letters in answer
to inquiries of prospective settlers,
which shows that the bureau is doing
good work in turning the stream of de-
sirable settlers to New Mexico. The
next decade or two will see a wonder
full growth in the population and wealth
of New Mexico, which is now beginning
to rear the results of the advertising
and work done for it by the bureau of
immigration.

The millionaire Scare.

The Democrats, especially Million
aire Thomas Patterson of Colorado, are
worrying a good deal because Colorado
Republicans have chosen three million
aires to represent them at the national
convention. But that the Democrats
are not averse to ~millionaires, especial
ly when they contribute to the Demo
cratic campaign fund, is shown by the
fact that they cheerfully took the 800,
600 offered by Millionaire Coogan, OF
New York. In Democratic eyes he is
a worthy gentleman, even though he
is a millionaire, whose heart beats with
the plain people. But Colorado has mil

The Lot Of School Teachers.

Public school teachers should be paid
good wages, but there is no valid reason
for paying them more than other edu.
Gated men receive for their services.
Every once in a while, especially in the
large cities where teachers receive all
the way up to $1,000 a year, the cry
goes up that teachers are underpaid and
receive less than do other men in similar
lines of work. Yet, when it comes to
actual figures, the average pay of teach
ers is not so very low in the large cities
when compared with that of other edu-
Gated and cultivated men in the profess
sions. The clergyman is often no better
off and the average physician has cause
to envy the high school principal his
fixed and certain income. OF course,
there are lawyers, clergymen and physi-
clans who earn large sums of money,
but so there are educators who graduate
into the ranks of college professors and
presidents of fashionable schools that
pay high salaries. The teachers three
months vacation and Saturday holiday
give him always q certain advantage
over the journalist or physician who
get no holiday with pay. Why should
a man expect to be paid more for nine
months work, five hours a day, with a
holiday extra thrown in each week or
1000 hours in all, as a man who must
be equally as well equipped mentally
and physically who works IL months a
year, IL hours a day, Sundays and holt
days included, or over 1000 hours a year?
And that is the amount of work, for
instance, that most newspaper report
ers in the land do cheerfully every year
OF their life, for wages which make the
income Of the high school principal look
large.

A prohibiiive tax upon oleomargarin

A prohibiiive tax upon oleomargarine
seems to be an unnecessary measure OF
protection for farmers. Good farmers
or creamery butter will always find a
good market at good prices. There is
undoubtedly demand for oleomargarine
and as 1t has proved to be not inimical
to health there is no eason why its
manufacture and sale should be prohibit
ed. Farmers should receive protection
and encouragement whenever it is pos
sible to give them without infringing
upon the rights of other people within
the United States, but when they can
be aided only at the expense of the de-
struction Of a prosperous industry then
the cost is too high. Farmers have been
getting along without laws prohibiting
any competition with their products and
there seems to be no overwhelming de-
mand at present by the farmer for
that kind of protection.

Canning Factories.

The great fruit crop which is promised
in New Mexico this year should be an
incentive to the establishment of can
| ming factories. There will be a large
surplus of fruit that should be canned
and placed on the market as canned
fruit. The fruit grown in New Mexico
has no superior in the country. New
Mexico soil and New Mexico air give a
peculiarly fine flavor to fruits and vege-
tables and the size and perfect appear
ance they attain give them a good mar
ket wherever they appear. In nearly
every part of the territory the crop is
greater than the home demand. Ship
ping is well enough in it's way but there
is a limit to the home amount that can
be shipped. If canneries were establish
ed the surplus could be taken care OF
and next year a greater acreage would
be put out in orchards and truck farms
Theirs is a good home market for canned
goods and a good export trade to eastern
states could be worked up. A cannery
does not take a large Investment nor
does it take great capital to run it.
Associations of fruit growers could con-
tribute and erect canneries owned by
themselves. A good plant need not cost
more than $3.50 and the experiment is
worth while trying. Santa Fe has a
cannery which has been idle sometime
but which under right management
could be made profitable by not only
drawing upon the Santa Fe and Tesu.
que valleys for surplus fruit to be can
ned but by reaching out for the fruit OF
the Rio Grande valley and of San Juan
county a. well.

A Correct Census for New Mexico.

New Mexico should and must have u
correct census taken of its people and
its wealth. The enemies of the terri
tory are already boasting that the cen
sus will show that New Mexico has gone
backward instead of forward during the
past decade. These men must be given
the lie by facts. Census supervisor
Pedro Sanchez and his force of almost
200 census enumerators should see to it
that a careful and accurate count is
made. Not a man, woman or child
should be missed. This is important tc
every community as well as to the ter.
ritory at large. Each county must
have its share of political rights and
each town and city wants to be credited
with its largest population. The people
can assist the census emu nerators in
more than n way to give their com
munity a fair count. People Temperate
ly away from home should be report
ed by their neighbors or friends. The
census begins today, and if New Mexico
is given an accurate count it will show
that it has kept its own and made ma
terial progress besides, emitting it on
the point of population and wealth alone
to the rights of statehood.
