Expansion Helps the South.

Senator McLaurtn of South Carolina
Is another southern man who sees the
great possibilities of commerce with
Asia through annexation If the Phil
ippine islands and the opening of trade
with China. He declared in a recent
speech hat any representative of the
south in congress who opposes expan-
sion across the Pacific is blinded to the
true interests of his section, and welded
to a mere political sentiment. Cotton
from the southern states will in a few
years furnish the supply for the mills
of China and all the Orient if territorial
and commercial expansion be not check
ed. Then the southern states can de-
pend upon an enlarged market and fair
prices. The south will go forward more
rapidly than eve in her history when
the Asiatic market is opened.

Porto Rico Trade.

President Mckinley thinks that there
should be no import duty upon any Of
the products Of Porto Rico. If it Is tt
be truly American territory, then the
men who farm there should be allowed
to ship their crops and the goods made
therefrom into this country without
having to pay duty. Porto Rico Is near
err to New York by travel than New
Mexico was in the days when the terri.
tory was created, and yet no one
thought then of objecting to the prod
ucts Of New Mexico entering the states
without paying duty. OF course, had
selfish producers foreseen the many va
rieties Of products which are now sent
eastward from New Mexico, and the ar
ticles which are Ito be made here in the
future, there might have been schemes
to impose a tariff for the purpose of
holding New Mexico back, Just as there
now are in regard to Porto Rico. The
American people car stand the free in

island of Porto, which has a population

Santa Fe is called the Ancient be-
cause it is the oldest city in the United
States from the standpoint Of modern
history. This name has a double signifi-
canoe, now that it is known hal round
about Santa Fee are the ruins of a multi
tudinous but extinct people, q people
against whose age that of Egypt, of
China, of Rome, seems but yesterday.
The government should set these cliff
dwellings apart as a national park and
preserve them for future generations.
is no hope of ever finding a Ro-
setta stone to decipher the inscriptions
which abound in the caves of the cliff
dWellers, but, nevertheless, the ruins
will ever be of intense interest to scien-
lists and tourists.

Epidemics Can Be Prevented,

The plague appears to be a serious
menace to Honolulu, but science and
sanitation will conquer in the end, and
the city be put into a condition where
no epidemic can prevail. While disease
cannot be wholly prevented, devastat-
ing epidemics may be. No ell-regulat-
ed American city is ever greatly depop-
ulated from such a cause. The yellow
fever has been the foe that has deci-
mated southern cities, but Memphis
finally made herself safe by sanitary
measures and a eve system; New Or
leans, by a plan to secure good water,
furnish 1T free in unlimited quantities,
compel all houses to have service from
the city pipes and connection with sew
ers, is showing an intention to prevent
any epidemic hereafter. Those who
would preserve the public health can do
SO by being always on guard and in
trenched with the sanitary improve
ments within the reach of most munich
palities.

Helping Many Counties.

When Hon. H. o. Bursum introduced
y bill in the thirty-third legislative as
sembly giving counties the right to re-
fund their bonded debts, he probably
had especially in mind his home county
OF Socorro. But the law Is a good N
and many counties nay receive sub
stantial benefit If they act under its
provisions. The socorro Chieftain says
that the commissioners Of that county,
who are advertising for buyers for $780,
900 worth Of 4 per cent refunding bonds,
have received an offer TO take the whole
issue at par. There will probably be
better offers, but even on this basis the
annual interest will be cut down 5 5000.
That is a substantial saving which re-
suited from sending a good man to the
legislature to look out for the interests
Of the public. For many a year the
work Of the last legislative assembly
will be gratefully remembered by the
taxpayers.

The legislature Of MiSsissinni

The legislature Of Mississippi has en-
acted a law to allow relatives of any
person lynched to recover SO, 900 dam
ages from a county where the deed is
committed, and declaring that a sheriff
who permits lynching cannot remain in
office. 1t is now up to the sheriffs, and
the chances are that such officials will
find ways and means in most cases t.
keep mobs form getting hold of prison
ers. And the penalty will have a tend
ency to make taxpayers prevent ire
sponsible persons from causing the
county to be mulcted. The law may
possibly not be sustained by the courts,
but its passage is evidence of good In
tentions upon the part of the Legislature
and an awakened public sentiment
against riotous executions.

SPRINGER FOR STATEHOOD.
springer Stockman.)

(Springer Stockman.)
1t has been the business this week OF
several of our citizens ito sound the com
munity On the question, and only one
man asked as to his views reported his
opposition as a taxpayer opposed tc
statehood. The feeling of the county is
from reports found to be about the
same. There is no state in the Union
that did not prosper when 1t emerged
from a territory to a state. Take Colo
RADIO, for an example, prior to 1876 and
since. Eastern capital Is loathe to in
vest In u territory; as a state 1t would
be different, and our yet infant indus
tries would be developed by outside
capital as we'll as home that is lying
Idle. Signatures of taxpayers regard
less of political affiliations prove the
sentiment of this community in the
matter in the face of arguments to the
contrary. BY the published list of tax
payers signing in favor of statehood it
is seen that the letter to congress by
W gentlemen is not the feeling of the
taxpayers Can impression formed
throughout the territory, but a state
ment that has misled many to believe
the situation is other than it really is
in fact.

No Cause for III Health.

In the pure mountain air of New
Mexico, with it's dry, aseptic qualities,
no malarial fevers nor epidemics COM
mon to moist countries can even prevail.
Typhoid fever, from the use of polluted
water, may prevail anywhere, or small
pox rage where people huddle together
in houses and breathe impure air, or
where filth accumulates. But in New
Mexico people who live in a cleanly
manner, use plenty of good water inter
nally and externally, and follow natural
laws, have little to fear from diseases
other than those inherited. Even these
are to be modified in severity by local
influences in most S Here the peo-
pie escape the miasma of wooded and
swampy lands, stagnant water and de-
caying vegetation, caused from excess
sive rains and soggy earth.

One person in New Mexico who had
pers with mention as an available man
for United States senator has declined
the honor with thanks, and an admis-
sion that he would not give up his law
practice for the office, and could not Sc
cure it did he wish to do so. There are
doubtless other citizens of New Mexico
who have no desire to be elected sena-
tor, but there are not a few who would
like to have the honor. Their ambition
is laudable, and when the time comes
it will be no trouble to find candidates
worthy of the place.

The census completed in Cuba anG
Porto Rico shows that the yellow jour.
mails, as usual, prevaricated when, be-
fore the war with Spain, they stated
that one out of every two Cubans hat
been starved to death by Weyler. The
decrease in the population of Cuba car
be more than accounted for by the
withdrawal Of 200, 900 Spanish troops
and 100, 900 Spanish residents who re-
turned to Spain after the a began. AS
the population decreased only 10000
since the last census, the island really
shows an increase of 250, 900 in popula-
ton, which Is a greater per cent Of
growth than the Philippines will prob
ably show after the val there is ended.

Unless there is a decided increase in
precipitation in northeli, New Mexico
during the mex few months water may
be worth its weight in gold in the sum-
mer. With this knowledge it seems an
awful waste of natures bounty to see
the water trickle away in numberless
streams without doing any good, while
if it were stored it would result in green
fields and abundant crops. The prehis-
toric cliff jewellers were more economic
with natures bounties than is man to-
day, who would rather sink 81, 600, 900
digging for gold where there is none
than build a reservoir which in a year
like this is sure to be worth a goodly
pile of the glittering metal.

Evil doors from other states no long
err find New Mexico a haven Of refuge.
The governor of the territory, perhaps,
signs more requisition papers than any
lance of the officers has made a law
abiding commonwealth despite the fact
that a thinly settled, rough frontier
country is generally a law-breaker's
paradise. New Mexico, too, is much
more successful in capturing it's GRIM
mails who escape into other states than
is Colorado, for instance. Self-govern-
ment would be more of a success in New
Mexico than 1T is in Kentucky, or even
in Colorado.
