New Mexico Opportunities.

The glowing accounts which have
been given from time to time of the
mineral wealth in the Cochiti or in 9TH
err sections of the territory are not over
drawn, but they are often misinterpre-
ted. People will come from all parts of
the country and expect to pick up gold
nuggets on the streets of Bland or to
cut u copper ore with a cheeseknife
from the mountain side. They expect
to reap golden harvests without exert
ing themselves, and when they find they
cannot do this they go away disap-
pointed and claim that conditions have
been misrepresented. that in New Mex
leo as elsewhere a person without
has to work for a living, and a person
with means has to invest his capital
and wait awhile before he makes any
returns on his money. Now this is true,
but nowhere else in the United States
will intelligent labor be so amply repaid
in the end as in mining in New Mexico;
nowhere else can capital expect such
large legitimate returns as if invested
in properly managed mining enter
prises in this territory. The mineral
wealth exists, there is no doubt about
it. If it were all above surface in a
concentrated form and easy to get every
mar in New Mexico would be a million
aire, but it takes brain, Drawn and cap
ital to find it, to mine it and to trans
form it into dividends and wages.

Statehood for New Mexico.

Hon. L. Bradford Prince, who il I'M
firing in his efforts to further the inter-
ests of New Mexico, yesterday address,
ed the Trans-Mississippi commercial
congress on the question of statehood
for the territories. OF course, a man 50
intimately acquainted with conditions
in New Mexico, yet broad and liberal in
his views. as Ex-Governor Prince, could
not do otherwise but champion the
rights of the territories in this matter,
and he had to come to the inevitable
conclusion that the territories deserve
statehood, and especially in the case OF
New Mexico, not only deserve it but
have a right to demand it. The political
exigencies of a presidential campaign
and the time demanded for the ADJUST
ment of the affairs of the new acquisi-
tons Of the United States have post
poned the action of congress on state
hood for another year, but next year q
Republican congress and a Republican
president will give New Mexico state
hood, and the territory will enter upor
the rights which have been denied it fol
fifty years.

DEMOCRATIC DRAG-NET.

Albuquerque Journal-Democrat.)
Some features of the Democratic drag
net adopted by the territorial conven-
ton last Friday, and denominated by
them a platform of principles" are so
amusing as to be worthy of some slight
notice. They denounce and condemn
everything Republican, and everything
having either a Republican origin or
tendency. No explanation is given as to
why they felt called upon to do this,
and no illustrations are cited to show
that they knew what they We're reso-
luting about. They were apparently in
about the same condition as a certain
little boy sometimes spoken of, and yet
feeling that they must say something,
regardless of it's truth or falsity, they
"grasped at straws," whether in or out
of sight, hoping to hit something that
might be of service in the coming cam
paign. AS an Illustration, everybody
knows that the present territorial adj
ministration is the %cleanest and best
that New Mexico has ever had, and that
no chief executive has ever had a high
err sense of the moral responsibility de-
volved on him Wy virtue of his Office
than has Gov. Miguel A. Otero.

The prosperity prevailing throughout
the country is best reflected by the bust
ness done by the great railroad compa-
MES. For instance, never before in the
history of the Santa Fee system has traf-
fc been so great, the income and profits
so immense, as at present. Millions of
dollars are being spent in improve
ments, while but a few years ago not
a cent seemed available for such pur-
poses. New branches are being built or
old ones absorbed into the general sys-
tenn, and extensions are planned into
new territory. And this is not only the
case with the Santa Fe railroad, but
with every n of the large systems
that span the continent or unite the
east and the west or the north and the
south,

A SANITARlUM NEEDED.
The Need of the Pecos Valley As Well As
of Other Parts Of New Mexico.
(ROsWell Record,)

(ROswell Record.)
That the Pecos valley is a natural
health-giving sanitarium is no longer
a matter of douht. Numbers who have
come here wrecks physically have re-
gained their health, some in an aston
ishingly short time. These people, many
of them, are prominent citizens, and
give conclusive evidence of what our
climate a and does effect. Men and
women are on u streets every day,
apparently well, who looked when they
came that it was too late to do them
any good. True, some come only to die.
Those who have regained their health
write back to their friends and home
papers of their recovery. Those who are
like afflicted long to come to what they
hope would be a restorative to health;
we in turn write of our personal knowl-
edge of those helped by coming here.
Our papers and our business men send
out valley literature telling of wonder
full business chances, of the astonishing
opportunities for live stock raising, veg
etable and fruit culture, bee raising and
other enterprises. This is all right, for
1t is the truth; while we are telling this,
we never fail to tell also of the wonder
full healthfulness of our beautiful val
ley. This is true too. The American
people are a reading people. They are
reading of our valley all over the Unit
ed States. The word has gone out to the
world, and the people are coming. In
the fall hundreds will pour in here to
escape the rigors of another winter.
What are we going to do with those
afflicted with lung disease? We know
now, it is hard for those thus afflicted

Your Uncle May Have To.

The United States may be compelled
to do what all Europe has feared to
bring about. That is to take Turkey by
the nape Of the Bosphorus and to shake
1t until it has paid what it owes the
United States. The American nation is
not to be trifed with in business mat
tiers of that kind, and after waiting six
teen months for the payment of claims
that are due 1t is in order to send a
couple Of Uncle Sans famous w~ar-ships
to the Golden Horn and to collect the
sum which the sultan is we'll able to
pay, for it is not larger than what he
annually spends on his harem. This
would also be an example to Europe,
which has allowed the sick old mar
with headquarters at Constantinople to
do pretty much as he wanted to because
they feared that a var on Turkey would
result in a division of the Turkish en-
pire, over which division of spoils a
general European war would ensue. The
United States Is not hungering for new
territory. however, and simply demands
that the sultan pay hat little bill he
owes.

to rent comfortable rooms, even If they
have abundant means at their disposal.
There are plenty of well persons ready
to AXE the rooms, and they are always
taken in preference to an invalid. Be-
fore the falling of the autumn leaves
invalids will commence pouring in from
the Atlantic to the Pacific; from the
frigid north to the dengue and yellow
fever portions of the south. The ques-
ton is, what are we going to do with
them? Would it not be a blessing to hu-
mainly as well as a paying interest to
some one or a company to build IN one
of our suburban hills a sanitarium?
Charges should be reasonable and the
surroundings pleasant. A sick person
in a strange land is liable to become
homesick and naturally retard recovery
if they long for the more pleasant COM
forts of home. The higher air of the ad-
joining hills would be better for the af-
f1icted and would also be better for the
health interests of the town. 1t is not
fair to the invalids to induce them to
come, and when they get here have no
comfortable place to offer them.

American capital is investing NOR

American capital Is investing more
and more in Mexico. That country has
q wealth of u not surpassed by
any other country in the world. Under
a progressive government the sister re-
public has made immense strides for
ward. New Mexico was at one time a
part Of Mexico, and its wealth and nat
ural products are akin to those of Mex
leo. Under a government even more en-
lightened than that of Mexico it. too,
has made immense strides forward, but
strange to say outside capital is not
flowing so freely into it's enterprises as
1t IL into the enterprises just across the
boundary line. New Mexico offers just
as good chances for investment as does
Mexico, and it seems inexplicable that
capitalists are so slow to learn this.

Government Control OF IRRIGATION.

The policy pursued by the govern
ment in regard to river improvements,
although it has cost millions Upon mil
lions of dollars, has not been much of
a success thus far. The channel of the
Mississippi river, which has been cared
for and improved by the government
for many years, is shoaling more and
more every year, the levees are grow
ing higher and higher, plantations along
it's course are abandoned, and suits are
being filed against the government for
damages. Had all that money been
spent in retaining the arid west far
greater and more satisfactory results
would have been achieved, and where
there are several hundred thousand peo-
pie gaining a living there would now be
several million people earning a liveli-
hood.
There are only 5000, 900 acres of cult
waited land along the river Nile. Tt is all
irrigated. Where there is no irrigation
there is desert. This little patch of
ground, no larger than some of the
larger New Mexico counties, has made
Egypt a landmark in the worlds his
tory. 1t supports v e 5000, 900 people,
and pays the interest on a national debt
half as large as that of the United
States. The possibilities of New Mexi-
co are equally great; in fact, greater,
for the mineral of Egypt are
practically nothing. The flood waters of
the Rio Grande, If stored along the en-
tire course of the river in the territory,
can be made to irrigate more land than
that cultivated along the Nile.
The problem of retaining the arid
lands along New Mexico rivers and in
New Mexico valleys involves the con-
troll and the distribution of the water
supply, since not only the enduring
prosperity, but the very existence of the
homes created will be conditioned upon
the ability to use the stored waters for
irrigation. The diverse interests of in
dividuals and communities and wen of
different states will all be dependent
upon streams flowing from a common
source. To reclaim all the land possible
will involve the spreading of water owe
a surface as large as New England with
New York added. There is but one inev-
liable conclusion to these facts. This
Is, that irrigation, over and above all
human activities, is a matter demand
ing public and government supervision
and control. Every drop of water enter
ing the headgate and every drop escap-
ing at the end of the canal is a matter
Of public concern. The public must de-
termine, through constitutions and
statutes, the nature Of water owner
ship. The public must establish means
for the measurement of streams and
how much water may be taken for each
acre of land under the principle of ben
eficial use. The principle of public con-
troll and ownership in this particular
field Is inseparable from progress and
profits, and the task Is too large, too
delicate a one, to be left to the within Of
private ownership. 1t Is the duty of the
federal government to reclaim these
arid acres and to provide the means
through which they can be transformed
into teeming fields.

Fighting a Phantom.

Senator Hoar is a good speechmaker.
His addresses have deep learning and
beautiful rhetoric. He is a splendid de-
batter on academic questions; he stands
as the modern Demosthenes hurting his
Philippics against the dangers of i'm
perialism. But he lacks the practical
side in his character. 1t is well enough
to set up a theory and then knock it
down with weighty arguments. 1t is a
different matter to deal with facts as
they exist. His speech might as we'll
have been delivered in favor of state
hood for New Mexico or for giving the
franchise to women or to Cinnamon.
He assumes that the Republican party,
or rather that the American govern
ment, has embarked on a policy Of i'm
perialism, or, in other words, that their
object Is to make a federated empire
out of the United States and its COLO
MES. Nothing could be more absurd.
The Republican party is simply dealing
in the fairest and the most patriotic
manner with the questions forced upon
1t for solution by the war with Spain,
for which not only the Republican par
" but the whole country was respon-
sible. There might have been other
ways to deal with those questions, but
they would have been disastrous, I'M
patriotic ways. Senator Hoar can rest
assured that the American people, and
the Republican party in particular, will
deal honestly. fairly and, above all, pa
triotically with Its new possessions;
that II will govern them to the best in
terests Of their inhabitants, and when
the proper time comes will give them all
the liberties they are capable Of pos
sessing without detriment to themselves
or to the people of the United States.
