Recommends Forest Reserve.

s. J. Holsinger, special agent of the interior department, general land office, with headquarters in Tucson, returned to Fl Paso from months Investigating tour of the Sacramentos, Capitan and White mountains of southeastern New Mexico, says the Times. He was ordered to look into the advisability of creat- ing forest reserve on the mountains named, and in few days will report favOrably upon White and Captan. The reserve as he recommends it, will embrace d quarter of million acres of forest. His report should be heard from by October.
 In addition to the reserve report, Mr. Holsinger recommends the establish ment of a national park of four town ships, or 5000 acres, enclosing part of White mountain and the adjacent val ley. Holsinger states that the valley was natural park site. which could be greatly improved upon by the expendi- ture of little money. This feature of the report will have to be taken up in the shape of an act before congress.

 The foregoing was received from the German consul at Shanghai and was given out by the Berlin foreign office at lp. m.
 The collapse of the Chinese resist ance is explained in the dispatches from Shanghai as due to the failure of the Chinese to flood the country below Tung Chow. The earthworks con- nected with the dam at Pei Ho were unfinished and the canal at Tung Chow was full of water, facilitating boat transportation when the allies arrived there. Signals between the allies and the legationers holding part of the wall of Picking were exchanged on the morning of August l5, Wednesday, Troops are still arriving at Tuku.

Having bolted almost the en- tire democratic ticket, the Bull letin, in it's last issue, seeks to misrepresent Hon. c. M., Shan non, the candidate for council man, and sneeringly refers to him as the "editor" of this pa per, solely because MT. Shan non is a democrat and is main taining his honor by supporting the nominees of the convention of which he was a member. MT. Shannon declines, himself, to take any notice whatever of the article in the Bulletin, so, in justice to him, we take this oc- CasiOn to say that he is not the editor of the ERA; is not even a contributor to it, and is in no way, financially or otherwise, interested in it.
 The Bulletin, whose policy the ERA long ago cited as that of "rule or ruin, is certainly hard up for an excuse to bolt MT. Shannon's nomination when it resorts to such untruthful meth ods. The BRAS advice to the Bulletin is, if it wants to oppose MT. Shannon, to show up his past record, personal and politi- cal. This, no doubt, MT. Shan non would be glad to have it do,

What have those to say now who predicted that Hon. Wiley B. Jones would not prosecute the Ward case to the extent of securing a conviction? Ward was convicted of murder in the second degree after a most stub bornly contested fight which was participated in by some of the Territory's ablest lawyers for the defence. Yet, to the credit of Jones, though he had heavy odds against him, he se- cured a conviction in the degree above mentioned and it now rests with the court to say how long Ward is to be imprisoned. From those returning from Solo, knoxville the ERA learns that Jones handled the case in a mas terly way, and had it not been for his alertness at all times the prisoner would have secured an acquittal. Those who were using the Ward case as a pre- text to vote against Jones will now have to hunt up some other excuse or vote for Jones as they should do.

SAVED FROM THE GALLONS.
Ward Found Guilty of Murder in Sec Ond Degree for the Killing
 of c. c. Jackson.

Ward was indicted by the grand jury at the April term of court for the murder of Jackson but his case
 was continued to the present term. The case was commenced last Mon day and the jury retired yesterday evening and this morning brought in verdict of murder in the second de- gree, the penalty for which is not less than ten years imprisonment in the penitentiary. It is the opinion of the public that he is extremely fortu- nate in not receiving the death pen alty.
 On the 24th day of March, last, c. c. Jackson, an ex-Rough Rider, went into John R. Wards saloon in East Clifton and there played at game of monte which Ward was dealing. Jackson soon discovered that he was playing against ''brace" game and remon- strated with the dealer for cheating him, whereupon the dealer slapped Jackson in the face. ThenWard's em- ployees in the saloon went for their guns and Jackson left the place. From Wards saloon Jackson went to the Blue Goose and then to the Richelieu. At the latter place Jackson was re- lating his experience at Wards saloon when Ward came in and called Jack son liar and struck him at the same time. Jackson returned the blow. when Ward quickly drew his revolver and shot him, the ball entering Jack sons body in the left side just below the nipple. Jackson lived only a few minutes.
 Previous to entering the Richelieu Ward went to the Blue Goose and in- quired if Jackson had borrowed a gun there, and was informed that he had not. Had Jackson been armed he would probably have never met death at the hands of Ward.
 Jackson was Rough Rider and sar- gent in Company A, commanded by Captain Buckley O'Neil, who was kill ed at the battle of San Juan, and Jackson was commander of the guard of honor who officiated at the burial of their valiant comrade and captain. and received quite reputation in the army for his bravery and patri- otic spirit, and was well thought of by his companions.
 Ward is well known in Clifton, and several years ago served a term in the territorial penitentiary for cattle stealing.

The Republics Menace.

The republican party with it's imperialistic tendencies is as much committed to a large standing army as it is to the other monarchial features and consistently seeks to enlarge the army. The limit of the army to 25, ,OOO has, under the Mckinley administration, been increased until now it is 100000 and this will be still further increased should Mckinley be reelected. There are strong indications also if not positive evidence that aggregated capital, not satisfied with the strides the administra- tion is making toward militar- ism, is scheming to secure con- tro1 of the militia that it may be made SubSerVant to the inter est of capital. This is sought to be attained by securing the ap pointment of trusted minions as commanding officers in the mil itia as was recently revealed in the testimony given in New York in the proceedings of At torney General Smyth against the Standard Oil trust. Here it was positively stated by a for mer oil magnate that the Stand ard Oil trust was engaged in such a scheme, and had succeed ed in getting one of it's stock holders brigadier general over the heads of those justly enti- tied to the office as a recogni- tion of their merit.
 A little sober reflection will show how slight a tenure the people have upon liberty and a free country where a large standing army exists, and how easily our boasted security can be swept away through militar- ism, World Herald.

The building in which was located the large distillate engine, at the new well near concentrator No. 1, was de- stroyed by fire yesterday evening at 6 o'clock. The tank in the building which supplied the engine with oil was being filled and in some unaC- countable manner the float, indicating the amount of oil in the tank, became fastened and when the tank became full the oil spirited out of the tank and came in contact with lighted torch in the hands of one of the men. In few seconds the building was mass of flames. The engine was only slightly damaged as the heat was not very intense on account of the struc- ture being constructed of 2x4 timbers and covered with corrugated iron.

CLOSE OF THE CENTURY.
Pontifical Mass at Midnight in
Every Catholic Cathedral in
the Country.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 15.-It is
learned at the papal legation that coinci-
dent with the close of the Nineteenth
century, every archbishop and bishop in
the United States. as we'll as elsewhere,
is expected by Pope Leo to pontiicate
publicly at a midnight service in his ca
thedral provided there are no impedi-
ments to interfere with the programme.
AS some of the American sees have two
prelates laboring in conjunction, it is eX-
pected that while the archbishop of the
diocese officiates at his cathedral in per-
son on this solemn occasion, the coadjutOr
prelate or assistant will conduct a similar
service at the church which he governs
as pastor. There are a number of these,
located at Baltimore, New York, Phila-
delphia Boston, New Orleans,r Chicago,
Indianapolis and other places, where the
spectacle of two bishops officiating con-
currently at midnight mass" will thus
be witnessed.
ut is understood that the century's
close will be marked by extreme acts Of
devotion ON the part of Catholic clergy
everywhere by reason of the Pope's de-
sire that they especially signalize the
event. At Baltimore Cardinal Gibbons
will conduct the commemorative rites,
while his coadjutor, Bishop Alfred Cur
tbs, presides at one of the other city
churches. In Washington Archbishop
Martinelli. the papal delegate, has prom
ised to Officiate as celebrant of midnight
mass at st. Patrick's church.

DUE TO ALCOHOLISM.
in Chicago Hotel-An
Eccentric Character.

Chicago, Ill.,, Dec. 14.-William E.
Healey, a prominent attorney and for
merly associated with Assistant Secre-
.ary Of War Meiklejohn as assistant in
he United States court in Omaha, was
found dead in a dingy room at the Stat
ford hotel yesterday afternoon. Death,
it is said, was due to alcoholism.
Healey, who was of an eccentric ma
ture, registered at the hotel November
%, and was scarcely seen about the of
fee or corridors. Weekly since that time
he had been visited by a stranger, who
before departing from the hotel appeared
at the office and paid his weekly rent in
advance.
Yesterday Healey failed to make his
appearance and Manager Grindstaff Of
the hotel sent boy to summon him. The
lad knocked repeatedly at the door with
out securing any response, and later
when the manager gained entrance 10
the room he found the guest lying on the
bed lifeless.
From card given out by the Chicago
Law institute emitting the deceased to
the privileges of the institute the identi-
hcation of the former well-known attor-
ney was made positive. Healey came to
Chicago four years ago from Omaha, and
since then has been the representative
here Of the Globe Mutual Fire Insurance
company, with Offices in the Manhattan
building. In Omaha he gained reputa-
ton as lawyer in the United States
courts. Mr.. Healey was born in Osh-

BY SINGER COMPANY.
Stockholders to be Given Agree
able Surprise-Better than
Standard Oil Stock.

New York, Dec. 15.-The Singer Sew
ing Machine Manufacturing company is
to pay a dividend four times as big as
the Standard Oil company paid this year.
Mr.. ROckefeller's company only paid IS
per cent. The Singer company is going
to award n 200 per cent. dividend to it's
stockholders as a Christmas present.
Next Monday the stockholders of the
company will meet in Elizabeth, n. j., to
ratify the action of the directors in in
creasing the stock of the company to $780,,
100000. This stock represents solid earn
ing capacity and business assets. Not
one dollar of the stock is to be offered to
the public. 1t is simply to be divided
among the stockholders as a bonus.
The Singer Manufacturing company
distributed among it's stockholders in 1899
dividends representing 100 per cent, or
S10.O0O,O0O, as the capital stock is only
that amount. During 1900 it has thus
far paid only 5 per cent, which caused
some of the stockholders to grumble.
They didn't know, of course, what great
surprise the directors had in store for
them.
But the most interesting part of the
new stock issue is that it is Immediately
to go on 60 per cent. dividend basis
In other words, the company is going to
pay in 1901 60 per cent. on $4,000, 900,
or about $1S,000,00O.
