With the Kalihi Guards.

The ghost walked yesterday. Some
Of the guards attempted to perform
similar feat last night-unsuccess
fully.
The days duties are being carried
out as Systematically and precisely
as in military camp.
The guards received back pay up
to midnight of the Sd inst, leaving
eleven days in arrear The paymas-
ter on being questioned as to the
thisness of the thusness, merely
whistled "there are things that can
not be explained"
On account OF indisposition among
the guards, caused by too much sit
ting down, Colonel Hemenway plan
ned and executed successful flank
movement against the offending fur
niture. His timely action occasioned
universal rejoicing among the suf-
ferers.
The Stars and Stripes were raised
with much eclat yesterday and when
Professor Anderson tootled "The
Star Spangled Banner" on his asth-
matte cornet, strong men we're over
come with emotion.
The utmost goodwill prevails
among the amateur custodians of the
peace. Natives and haoles commin-
gle in the best of goodfellowship,
and Ned Doyle is fanatical believer
in the motto that "a full stomach
maketh glad the heart of man."

Gold in Siberia.

The Cape Nome gold boom started by
interested transportation companies is
not proving the drawing card it had
been expected it would, although 10000
miners will go there this year. Several
steamship lines are therefore a%ssiduous-
ly spreading reports that very rich gold
deposits exist along the coast of Sibe-
ria, opposite Alaska. 1t is not impossi-
BILE that gold may be found in the region
mentioned, but the Siberian coast is
even more difficult to access and the
climate is much severer than that of the
Alaskan coast region. The Russian
government imposes very strict regula-
tons on prospecting and mining fol
gold in it's territory, and Russian off
Gals have very summary methods of
treating those who have not complied
with the requirements of the law.
Transportation into the interior is the
lightest penalty which the prospectol
who undertakes to land and work with
out proper authority is liable to receive
Once in the interior of Siberia escape OF
rescue is practically impossible. Pros
pecting and mining in New Mexico is
not hedged in by these climatic and le-
gal difficulties, and when all of the story
Is told New Mexico will be found to be
as rich in gold as either the Alaskan OF
the Siberian coast.

MUTUAL INTERESTS
Mining Conditions In New Mexico,
Arizona, Colorado and Utah Are
Much the Same.
A BIG INCREASE OF CAPITAL
There Is Plenty Of Room for Investment
In New Mexico-The Press Is
Doing Much.
DAILY Mining Record

1t is with pleasure that the Record
notes that the papers of New Mexico
are devoting considerable space to the
exploitation of the mining interests OF
that great state. Colorado has mining
interests of it's own, and the possible
ties of its score or more OF leading
camps are by no means exhausted; but
no Colorado mining man of any breadth
of mind will b~egrudge New Mexico the
boom which appears to be attending
mining in that section of the country. 1t
is not a struggle between Colorado and
New Mexico, to see which state can di-
vert the most of eastern money to it's
mining districts. The question is for
the states of the great southwest to
demonstrate that eastern money, in
vested in western mines, will earn prof
it's and handsome ones, too, with a fine
degree of surety.
There is now enough money in the
east being stored away by its holders
in places of security, ranging from a
United States treasury vault down to
an old stocking in a chimney corner,
which could be profitably invested in
western mines. Colorado is receiving at
his time more eastern capital than it
ever has in the past, but the per cent
is small when taken in comparison with
the vast boards of idle capital in the
east now awaiting an avenue of invest
ment. The amount invested annually in
Colorado mining could be increased a
thousand fold, and yet it would not Sc
riously draw upon eastern
The steady increase in the amount of
capital being put into western mines
from year to year points to one fact
that the east is coming to believe in
western mining and is willing to put it's
money here. This point is therefore the
center of the argument. Colorado, New
Mexico, Arizona, Wyoming and Utah
and in fact every mining state of the
great west has one problem before it
which is, in effect, to demonstrate to the
east that mining is legitimate and the
possibilities Of profit are many times
as large as in almost any line of invest
ment securities in the east-barring
perhaps, Standard Oil bonds.
1t is the place of the press of the west
and especially the mining press, of both
Colorado and New Mexico to address it.
self to the task of exploiting the posi-
bilities of it's particular section. Let the
information be first of all honest and of
a character which the most exhaustive
investigation by the eastern capitalist
will do nothing but to c~orroborate.
Booming and puff information will not
stand twenty-four hours. Let the in
formation be unbiased and fair to all
sections; for it is not necessary for the
papers of Colorado to tear down the
mining interests of New Mexico in or
der to build up some home industry.
And right here there is a need of a
word of caution. 1t would appear from
reading the papers of certain mining To-
calities of Colorado, New Mexico and
Utah, certain papers are imbued with

True Charity.

An Italian philanthropist has built a
palace for consumptives at Palermo, in
Sicily. There is hone of the ~barrenness
and bleakness of the hospitals about
the sanitarium, nothing that would sug-
gest suffering, disease or death. 1t is
built in a spot on the ocean where there
is no chill, no frost, no storm; where
there is perpetual sunshine, and the eli
mate is uniform in it's mildness; in fact,
such a climate as New Mexico possesses
except that the Palermo climate is
moist, while that of New Mexico is dry.
Patients are encouraged to spend as
much time as possible in the open air.
A beautiful yacht is at their disposal
and magnificent gardens surround the
sanitarium. The building is equipped
with every luxury not injurious to the
patients, and night is made brilliant by
myriads of lamps and torches in the
tainty that the Italian philanthropist
who built this sanitarium will be bless
ed %oftener, will alleviate more suffering
and Is doing more good than do most
millionaires who endow large UNIVERSE
ties or misapply their charity. His ex-
ample should be an incentive to Amer
can philanthropists to build such san
itariums in New Mexico. The untold
good they would do would be a rich re-
ward for any amount of money spent on
them.

Under DRAINAGE.

The agricultural college substation at
Roswell is doing good work for the Pc
cos valley. Experiments are at present
carried on in under-drainage at that
station, which promise to solve the al
kali question, which is a bugbear to ag-
ricultC:a in the Pecos valley, which is
so greatly blessed with a good water
supply, perpetual sunshine and a fertile
soil. Open drains are at the best but an
unsatisfactory means for draining the
land, and are a continual source of an
noyance and expense. On the other hand
an under drain of tiles once in place,
it's work goes on perpetually, and every
foot of the benefited territory can be
used, which, with the open ditch, is I'm
possible. 1t will also prevent the effects
of oVer-irrigation, and will eventually
rid the land of the surface percentages
of lime and other deleterious sub
stances. This question of under-drain-
age is an important one to every farm
er in New Mexico, for the agricultural
of the territory will not be
fully developed until all irrigation is
done by under-drainage, and thus both
an economy in the use of water and the
greatest amount of f~ruitfulness be Sc
cured.

The Administration Of Justice.

The fact that New Mexico is as law
abiding as any of the commonwealth
Of the Union is because the administra-
above %reproach. There is, for instance,
no ADLER jurist and no more upright
Judge on the bench in any of the other
territories or western states than Judge
majesty of the law, and who believes in
enforcing the laws as they are upon the
statute books. This may not always be
the popular course, for no doubt such
laws as the Sunday-closing law are
very unpopular in many instances. Yet
Judge McFie believes that the proper
remedy is not the ignoring of an unpop-
ular law by the administration of JUS
tice, but it's repeal by the legislature.
That a great majority of the people
of the territory themselves believe in
enforcing the letter and the spirit of the
law is manifested by the report of the
territorial grand jury, which met at
Santa Fe, and which report was pub
lished yesterday. The jury worked hard
and faithfully, and Is a result a large
number of indictments were found,
most of them for offenses which the
average grand jury is apt to condone,
but which a faithful jury will not ig-
more.
OF course, the ability and work of
District Attorney r. c. GOrtner has
much to do with the successful work Of
the grand jury. In many instances it Is
the information he gives the jury and
the evidence he has carefully gathered
that leads to an indictment and the
punishment of crime. District Attor-
ney Gortner brings youthful enthusiasm
and ambition to his work, and he has
a bright future before him.
One feature of the grand jury report
is especially gratifying, and that is the
satisfaction expressed with the county
officials and a testimony to the good or
der and good shape in which the rec
ords and accounts of the county are
kept, as well as the able and economic
in which its affairs are admin
istered.
Though a large number of indictments
were returned by the grand jury, nom
of the indictments were for a crime of
a grave nature. Such crimes have be-
come the exception rather than the rule
in Santa Fe county, due to the earnest
work of Judge McFie, District Attorney
Gortner and the high character Of the
grand juries, whose duty it is to take
the first effectual step toward the pun
ishment of crime.

one, for whatever upbuilds New Mexi-
