Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1900-04-16
A TIMELY
(Roswell Record.)


Roswell has become a great health re-
sort, especially for those afflicted with
different throat and lung diseases.
Many come with limited means; others
with only enough to get them here. They
all hope to get some light employment
while they are regaining their health.
In both respects they are sometimes
disappointed. The light employments
are all full and running over. An en-
ployer would naturally prefer a strong,
healthy person. The customer would
rather trade with those above suspicion
Of communicating disease. We know
what our climate Is, and would be glad
to see thousands try its health-giving
atmosphere; but at the same time would
advise against any one coming without
some means Of support. Rents are high
and SO are provisions. 1t is not right for
Roswell to take care Of unfortunate
ones who are not its citizens till they
coma as invalids. The different churches
have their hands full now, and IL the
number of invalids multiply as they
have in the past year 1t will be an i'm
possibility for the churches to respond

1t is not lyddite nor any other new
tangled engine Of destruction that is
making the most trouble in modern
wars, but ordinary, unassuming barbed
wire, which the American farmers for
the past generation have been using to
fence in their fields. The Americans
had some nasty experiences with 1t be-
fore Santiago, and later in the Philip
pines, and the British find in the Trans
vaal that it is Of the greatest assistance
in making Boer positions impregnable.
The Beers not only stretch 1t across the
veldt and in the underbrush, but also
in streams where they have to be ford
ed, and many a poor Tommy Atkins was
drowned the past few months while try
ing to disentangle himself from a piece
of barbed wire in the middle of a
stream. A very simple device is often
more effective than a complicated ma
chine to achieve certain and quick re-
suits.

There has been within the past few
months a decided improvement in the
appearance of a number of New Mexi-
co weeklies that is very noticeable, and
that rebounds to the credit Of the terri
tory. A dozen newspapers are published
in the territory that are models typo
graphically, as well as from a literary
and journalistic standpoint. Advertisers
too are becoming more liberal. Last
week there appeared in a Silver City
paper the advertisement of a, local mer-
chant that covered a whole eight-col-
umn page 1t is manifestations of this
kind that help the outsider to pick out
the prosperous and growing towns ir
New Mexico from the fossil and retro.

Theodore Roosevelt has for the hun
dredth consecutive time declined the
honor of being the vice presidential can
didate on the Republican ticket. BY
present indications Roosevelt will be
the most available candidate Of the Re
publican party for president in 1904, and
he believes he is acting wisely therefore
by keeping out of the presidential cam
paign this year. He is taking the risk,
however, of being defeated for governor
of New York, in which case his candida
for the presidency in 1904 would be
out of question. There is no law or rea-
son, apparently, why a vice president
cannot be elected president during the
campaign succeeding his tenure of of
flee. It is merely an old prejudice or SUI
perstition which men like Roosevelt
should not heed.
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1900-04-16

The Chicago Record evidently has a
grudge against New Mexico. Every
once in awhile it takes a fling at the ter
ritory and makes assertions which be-
tray ignorance as we'll as malice. It's
latest libel Is that New Mexico is inhab-
tied by poems, 80 per cen of whom a n
not speak English. 1t Is useless to re-
flute statements of that sort, for the
facts themselves are apparent to every
one who lives or has been in New Mex
leo. But there is this much: There are
more people who cannot read and write
English in Chicago than there are in all
of New Mexico, and there is more crime
and low living in Chicago than there is
in New Mexico and Arizona taken to-
gether. This is not the fault of Chicago;
it Is the natural result of conditions in
a crowded city, but the Chicago Rec
ord has plenty to do looking up the
dungheaps in its own city without ex-
a%ggerating the shortcomings of the peo-
pie in New Mexico.

The Dona Ana County Republican
calls attention to the fact that the ag-
ricultural college is worth more to Las
Cruces than would be a gold mine pro-
ducing 5000, 900 a year. 1t urges the peo-
pie Of Las Cruces to advance, not to
give. to the board Of regents sufficient
funds to cover the deficit that must be
paid by June, because the people of Las
Cruces are most directly concerned in
the further existence Of the institution.
The Dona Ana County Republican is
right. There ought to be no difficulty to
raise a paltry IS $500, especially when the
money Is not to be a gift. but merely a
loan. Although Las Cruces Is most d.
rect1y interested, yet the agricultural
college is of great benefit to the whole
territory, and while Las Cruces itself
will undoubtedly make up the deficit,
there should be offers Of money from
other sections simply to demonstrate
that there are people in New Mexico
who take an interest in the welfare Of
Its educational institutions.
