The Liberal party in England is pass
ing through the same inner revolution
that the Democratic party in the Unit
ed States is experiencing. The majority
of the Liberals are opposed to the wal
with the Beers, they are against expan-
sion, they are, despite their name, the
least progressive of the parties. They
are out of touch with the majority of
the people, and follow the lead of dem
agogues whose names We're unknown a
few years ago. Since G%ladstone's day
the party has lost in prestige, and its
strength and position in Great Britain
to-day are much the same as that of
the Democratic party in the United
States since the days of Grover Cleve-
land.

What Would Boom the Capital City.

There are several things which would
porous city. One of these is the estab-
lishment of a strong commercial club
Such an organization could bring to the
city new industries, could invite capt.
tai to furnish more extended hotel IA
%cilities, could negotiate for the estab-
lishment of new enterprises, and could
advertise the city more effectively as a
health resort, aiding the New Mexican
in it's work of bringing the advantages
of Santa Fe to the attention of the
world.
The development of the mining indus
try in the immediate vicinity of the
capital would unquestionably bring a
great and permanent boom to it. Coal,
iron. copper, mica. gold exist in paying
quantity and quality within easy reach
of Santa Fee, but thus far capital has
not been interested to a large extent,
and individuals of small mean cannot
attain the quick and certain results
that organized capital Is obtaining in
other mining camps.
A third step that would be of vast
benefit to the city would be the extern
sive development of water on the mesa
stretching to the mountains to the
south and beyond the foothills to the
Rio Grande. There are indications that
artesian water can be obtained if the
drills are sent down deep enough.
There are many sites for large storage
reservoirs in which flood waters could
be stored. Water on a small scale has
been developed by windmills, and there
seems to be a future for the immediate
surroundings of Santa Fe as an agricul-
tural. horticultural and stock country,
but capital Is needed to make a start.
A beet sugar factory would probably
follow the development of more water,
as would many other enterprises. The
Santa Fee valley and the Tesuque valley
demonstrate what water will do and
can do in the immediate vicinity OF
Santa Fee.
1t is the possibility, yea, the proba-
bility. that these things will be brought
to pass sooner or later that inspires
hope and confidence in the future of the
capital. And what Is said of
Santa Fe in this respect applies to near
y every city and town in the territory. |

The first session of the fifty-sixth
congress, which has just adjourned, ap-
p%ropriated $71O, 900, 900, of which $780,
900. 900 represents the ordinary expenses
Of the nation. This Is a vast sum-, al
most $40 for every man, and
child in the United States, and gives a
hint of the vast activities of the govern
ment. There Is no doubt in the mind of
any fair-minded person that the money
has been or will be expended honestly,
with the greatest economy, and mainly
for the good Of the people, who directly
or indirectly furnish the mean for car
rying on the government, and whose
representatives appropriate the money
with as much care as If they were ex-
pending their W private income.

The Beers evidently believe that he
who fights and runs away may live to
fight another day. To be shut il at Pre-
toria and be besieged by an overwha,m-
ing force without any prospect of relief
might nave delayed the end of the war
another month or two, but would have
bnen a mighty unpleasant experience
for the Beers. Their wisdom in aban-
dcning both Johannesburg and Preto-
ria cannot be questioned, and If thew
surrender now before they are actually
compelled to do so they will rather Gain
than lose in the estimation of the
world.

1t is time for the Atkinsonites to
who are fighting, or rather numbering,
for the right of self-government and in
dependence. 1t is a pity that congress
has adjourned, for a resolution or two
nave been introduced by Senators
Hoar, Pettigrew or Mason. The Tagals
and the Boxers" stand about on the
same level. and it is real cruel on the
part of foreigners not Ito allow them
selves to be murdered for the sake of
the independence and the liberty of the
Boxer empire.

That the great coal measures within
the limits Of New Mexico will some day
prove of immense value is shown by
the fact that German firms are at pres
ent negotiating with the leading coal
companies of the United States for the
delivery of coal. One of the chemical
factories of Frankfort alone is asking
for biIs to supply 800, 900 tons of coal to
be delivered within the next twelve
months. The production of coal in Ger
many this year will be 1000, 900 tons
short Of the demand, and similar con-
ditions prevail in. the other coal pro-
ducing countries of Europe.

MANILA, March 1, 5:55 p. m..-[By
Manila Cable.] A hundred insurgents
seven miles from San Fernando, La
Union, ambushed ten men Of the Third
Cavalry, who were escorting provis-
ion train. The Americans scattered,
and while returning to camp one man
was killed. The insurgents captured
four horses and quantity Of provis-
ions. A subsequent reconnaissance Of
the locality developed the fact that
there were intrenchments there and a
force of Filipinos, estimated to number
500 men. The Third Cavalry Is prepar-
ing to drive the insurgents out.
Gen. Otis IS expected to return to the
United States on leave Of absence soon
after the arrival Of the Philippine COM
mission. 1t Is desirable that he should
meet the commission and and give it
the benefit of his knowledge of affairs
in the Philippines. Gen. Macarthur
will assume temporary command of the
forces n the islands when Gen.

rope. Practically all this traffic, and
an additional amount from Lakes Mich
igan and Huron, pass through Lake
Erie. Erie is the shallowest of all the
lakes, and the fact Is apparent that it's
level Is lower than it was formerly.
The possibility of it's falling stiH more,
as result Of the diversion of some Of
the water Of Lake Michigan through
the great drainage canal from Chicago
to the basin of the Mississippi, leads to
an apprehension that sooner or later
the effect will be harmful. Now pro-
ject has been devised, and bill intro
duced in Congress to carry it into eff
feet, to meet the diminution Of the wa.
ter of Lake Erie by constructing dam
in the Niagara River near Buffalo, and,
raising the level Of Lake Erie by about
three feet. Such dam would deepen
the water Of the Detroit and st. Clair
Rivers, and would render more secure
and easy the navigation of this great,
waterway along which so important Al
part of the food supply Of the nations
is borne. But to raise the level of Lake
Erie means to flood lands along it's
shores. It means to flood certain Cana
dian lands, as we'll as American; and.
this would necessitate international ar
rangement and costly compensation
For this reason, as well as for the rea-;
son that great public enterprises always
move slowly, the conversion of Lake
Erie into vast mill-pond will proba-,
bly, be deferred for long period.

Dewey Loses Prize Money Case.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE United
States Court Of Claims today rendered
an opinion on the claim of Admiral
Dewey, his officers and men. for naval
bounty under section 4635 Of the revised
statutes for the destruction Of the
Spanish fleet in Manila bay, May /,
$685. the court holding that the claim
ant has right to recover for each
person on board the enemy's ships the
sum Of 800. This decision is upon the
basis that the admiraPs fleet was SUI
perior to the Spanish fleet. excluding
the shore batteries, the torpedoes and
the mines in Manila Bay. Admiral
Dewey's claim fol $200 for each man
belonging to the enemy's fleet including
the supporting shore batteries, mines
and torpedos. The principal question
involved in the case was whether in
determining the enemy's force the sup
porting batteries, mines and torpedoes
should be included. The government
insisted that the statute failed to pro-
vide for the contingency Of cooperation
of the land batteries with the fleet de-
stroyed, and the court Is powerless to
supply the omission. It Is understood
that counsel for Admiral Dewey will
take an appeal to the Supreme Court
of the United States. Under todays
decision admiral Dewey Is personally
entitled to $3.50.

The folly Of cheap and hasty rait-
ted in the result Of the hurried and
economical building of the great Sibe
rian railroad. The Siberian railroad,
let it be understood, is to develop the
trade between China and Russia and to
reduce the time and expense of travel
ing from London, Paris, Berlin and
Russia to the ports Of the far East. The
general cost Of the road was $3.50, ,250,-
600 and, while part of the construction
was by joint stock company, most OF
the shares are in the Russian Govern
ments possession and the greater part
OF the money came from the Govern
ment treasury, as will that needed for
the reconstruction deemed absolutely
necessary. Light rails and wooden
bridgeo were used in the original con-
sruction and, under the conditions re-
sulting from the haste and economy CO.
served, quick and safe travel Is impoA-
sible. Twenty miles an hour is the
maximum speed attained and this at
great risk to the patrons and property
OF the road. The heavy locomotives
necessary to climb the steep gradeJ
have spread the light rails and dis
turbed the foundations of the poorly
ballasted tracks until the committee
has concluded that complete reconstruc-
tion must be had. 1t is estimated that
this will cost not less than $25, 100000,
and the Russian Government will be
asked to make this appropriation. Had
the work been properly done at the out
set the development that the road
would have accomplished would have
been accelerated and not impeded.
