"Richard Croker, jr., who has entered

possession of Forest Home, q fine old
country estate mile north of the uni
versity grounds, and there he will make
his home for the three years he says he
will spend here to complete his course.

from many of the fraternities to join

the second Of his kind in value in the
world. The total value of the other
three is $4,000.
"These dogs have complete kitchen
of their own, and they get..the..best of
sirloin steaks. Mr.. Croker will send for
his tandem of horses. Boxes of supplies
for the dogs and four large trunks of
clothing have also arrived. The groom
said that the trunks contained forty

Tammany gave it's boisterous and re-
splendent reception to Colonel Bryan,
the picture of Croker and the Colonel
sitting hand in hand, side by side, dur
ing the long, triumphant march through
the streets Of the great metropolis, was
pathetic and touching to the utmost
degree. Colonel Bryan did not forget
in his speech to compliment Croker and
his Christian custom as to raising reven-
ues from the vices of New York, when
he said: "Great is Tammany and
Croker is it's prophet" This merited
tribute from one reformer to another

memories of all goody-goody people
who love Mr.. Bryan because of his utter
horror and intense repugnance to every

ADMONITION.

- Gold standard
democrats should
occasionally re- read the utterances of
the peerless prophet made when he was
posing as an interpreter of the future in
1896:
"If there is any one who believes the
gold standard is good thing, or that it
must be maintained, warn him not to
cast his vote for me, because promise
him it will not be maintained in this
country longer than I am able to get rid
of it. ."-William Jennings Bryan, Knox
vile, Tenn, September 16, 1896.
"The party stands where it did in
1896 on the money question. ."-William
Jennings Bryan, GAINESVILLE, Ohio, Sep
tember 4, 1900.

down" on the "same" where it did in
1896 also.

FOR MOTHERS.

. After his sojourn
in New York City,
after being wined and dined by his
friend Mr.. Croker, and enjoying the
luxury Of $1,000 per plate banquet, Mr..
Bryan went up into the country and
made talk to mothers. AS he looked
into the "careworn faces" of mothers,
whose sons Mr.. Croker said were being
shut out by the trusts Of all opportuni-
ties for business success and advancement
his heart ached that so few of them
were permitted the luxury of a visit to
some pleasant watering place" or the
privilege of Croker's bounteous hospital
ity. With his own oratorical paunch
well filled with Tammany delicacies and
with tears streaming down his enameled
cheeks, he said:
Mothers, what would you have your
sons do? Would you have your boys go
to the farms? Are you going to have
your boy go among the laboring men?
Are you willing to let your son 60 into
the anthracite coal region? Are you
satisfied to have your boy there? Do
you want him to 60 into store?"
Think of it mothers What will the
poor boy dop The peerless one says,
"you would not have your boy 60 on the
farm" The farm, the birthplace Of q
majority of our presidents, the training
school of our most successful business
and professional men, will never do for
your boy. Mothers, your boy must not
"go among the laboring men," For it is
''undignified" to labor. Mothers, do
not "let your boy go into the coal
regions" It is labor to mine coal and
your boy must not learn to labor.
Mothers, you must not let your Absalom
''go into store" For storekeeping is no
longer respectable. Thus saith the pa.
tron of Croker and the gourmand of $12
per plate banquets. Mothers, if you
would have your boy become great
and good man you must let him run for
Office or enlist in the honorable and
dignified service of Croker.

formed knew there was little ground for
the assertions Of the press seeking to
foment trouble, and now that every
county which has held its convention
has without d%issension Endorsed the ter
ritorial administration, and every con-
vention has been held without contest
ing delegations. the whole people know
that there was no reason for expecting
party contention. The Democratic pa
pers have therefore let up on the proph
ecy of a row at the Socorro convention
and taken to declaring that while there
nay be only peace at the coming gath
ering of Republicans, the war cloud will
come down upon the party when a con-
vention meets to name a candidate for
delegate to congress. But that Ia an

Big Battle Expected.

The indications are that the Beers
have withdrawn their forces from va
rious positions only that they may be
concentrated to give a grand battle to
General Roberts. When he advances he
will probably be confronted by 10000
Beers, and a conflict will take place
such as has not yet occurred. The Beers
may possibly see some advantage to be
gained by such a stand, but outsiders
who watch the spectacle of war can see
that ever should the Beers not be cut
to pieces they will only be prolonging
the agony. The advantage Is too strong
ly upon the side of the British, now that
they have set all their machinery in
motion for overpowering the enemy at
whatever cost. The n the Beers
cease obstruction and accept the inevi-
table the more of them will there be to
enjoy the fruits Of a greater civiliza-
ton than they have been able to devel-
op themselves. They are a stubborn
race. however, and will 90 on in their
determination until crushed. They have
no more chance Of winning this war
than the Spanish had Of defeating the
United States. though they may not
make such an early discovery of the
fact as did the Spanish.

New Mexico Left Out in Cold.

Twenty-Five years ago, March 5, the
president signed the Colorado statehood
bill. New Mexico certainly was treated
bailey when she was not permitted to
go along in the same class as Colorado.
The of the territory are as
great as those Of the state to the north
and had New Mexico been made a state
at the same time she would probably
have received fully as much stimulus in
the way of immigrants and investment
of capital as Colorado received as the
result of admission during a period
when there was a lively movement
westward. At that time there was a
tide of immigration In full flow. and, of
course, it was turned to Colorado most
ly by the creation of a state. In turn,
other territories We're benefited by be-
ing made states, while New Mexico,
through prejudice against the Latin an
cestry Of the majority of the people,
was left alone out in the cold, pointed
to as unfit for statehood, and, Of course,
received but a minimum share Of the
moving throng Of people.

NEW MEXICO WANTS STATEHOOD.
Judge MoFie's Views On the Important
Question,

Under date Of March 4, in a dispatch
from Washington to the Globe Demo-
crat of st. Louis, the following ap-
peared: Considerable quiet work Is be-
ing done to secure action at this session
upon the bill to admit New Mexico into
the Union. A formidable array of resi-
dents of that territory have reached
Washington, including Judge John r.
McFie, United States judge at Santa
Fee, who, until his health became i'm
paired, resided in Randolph county, ILL.,,
and who was for a time a member of
the Illinois legislature.
Judge McFie is on a vacation be-
tween the sittings of his court, but dur
ing his stay here is exercising his infiu-
ence to get statehood for New Mexico.
He says gold mining has become an ex-
tremely profitable industry in New
| Mexico.
I'VE have more than 200, 900 people in
the territory" remarked Judge McFie,
and we possess all the material ele-
ments that entitle us to statehood.
There is a general impression, especial
ly among capitalists, that a territorial
form of government is not sufficiently
| strong to warrant investments. We
need capital from the outside to devel-
| op our resources, which are very great.
Our sheep and cattle industry is very
extensive, the territory having now be-
tween 5000, 900 and 1900, 900 sheep. Sew
| eral congressman, including Senators
Shoup of Idaho and Clark of Wyoming,
have visited the territory recently for
| the purpose of informing themselves by
personal observation Of the conditions
existing there, and from conversation
| with them I am confident that they all
left warm friends and advocates of
statehood. 1t is true that an unusually
large number Of important measures
are before congress-, and pressure to dis
pose of them may postpone action upon
our statehood bill, but I do not antici-
pate tedious delay. I believe we will be
admitted within a year or two, at the
least"

LIVE STOCK CENSUS.
Some of the Benefits That Will Accru,
Therefrom.

xuoE6lIUuls
The matter of compiling statistics of
the next ensus is being undertaken In
no one department more thoroughly than
in that devoted to live stock interests.
The census bureau has given the super
vision of the live stock ensus into the
hands of the national live stock associa-
tion. The cooperation of all stock
owners is urgently requested and it Is
plainly to their interests to lend every
aid.
the census may be mentioned as follows:
First-The census will show the exact
number of live stock in the country. ages
sex, breed and location by states and
territories. This information alone Is
of the utmost value to stockmen as 1t
enables them to estimate closely by COM
parsons, approximate conditions that
affect the commercial value of their
holding.
Second-The census will provide a
basis for estimating close the value of
all kinds of live stock and the approxi-
mate cost of growing the same in various
sections. This information will be of
value to every man in the live stock bu-
siness, all Of whom are affected by such
economic problems.
Third-This census will furnish the
basis for future operations in keeping
track of the visible supply Of cattle Of
commerce for the guidance anb infor-
nation Of all stockmen. 1t is not the
intention of the National Live Stock
association to take this census and stop
there. To gain the best results, steps
will be taken to continue the work,
either by the association or through
governmental aid. This will provide
constant and reliable information upon
which to base commercial transactions
n the markets.
