WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.


1t was an extraordinary event for Con-
gress to adjourn Immediately after assemb-
ling ON the first day of the session. but the
cause was also extraordinary. In the deaths
within a few months of Senator Davis oil
Minnesota, and Senator Greer of Iowa,
Congress and the country met with an en-
traordinary loss, and it was fitting that Con-
gress, representing the country, should take
advantage of the first opportunity to public
ly honor their memory.
Senator Platt, of New York. said of the
probable legislation of the session: Il
think the ship subsidy bill, the army reor-
contamination BILL the war revenue reduc-
ton measure, and the Isthmian canal bill
will all pass. Personally, favor the Mica
ragua canal bill. | consider the Nicaragua
route the only practical one, and | believe it
will be adopted" One of the obstacles in
the way of Nicaragua canal legislation, was
removed when Secretary Hay and the Mica
ragua Minister signed treaty for their
respective governments, which comedies to
the United States all necessary rights and
privileges for the construction of the Nicara-
qua canal, and negotiations for a similar
treaty with Costa Rica are now under way.
Senator Elkins thus briefed his ideas of
what he hoped congress would do: ''The
first bill | want to see passed is the Isthmian
canal bill. | want to see the canal built by
American capital and controlled by the
United States. | am not in favor of any
treaty that will obstruct its passage The
canal is necessary for our protection. Con
gress, | believe, will pass the ship subsidy
BILL The country needs more ships, and
understand that it has been impossible foi
American shippers to secure vessels to carry
abroad the goods actually engaged to ''fi
orders"
! Representative Dick of Ohio, said of the
the future of the republican party: "The
republican party has but to follow a conserv-
atve, steady, business-like course, and il
will remain in power for years. What the
people want, | believe, is to see the material
welfare of the country advanced on safe
lines, and | think the policy of the republi-
can party will keep that in view. do not
think more partisan politics will enter into
the policy, but that the efforts of the party
will be directed toward the material improve
ment of the country in way to benefit the
whole people, and that we shall have sup
port, not alone from republicans, but from
democrats. have noticed since the cleo
ton that the campaign has left little bitter.

vail to degree unusual after a vigorously
'condncted campaign.

The Cliff Dwellers,

Under the auspices Of the EpWorth
League of the Methodist church, Rev.
George l.. Cole, D. D., archaeologist,
win deliver a lecture on the cliff dwell
ers Tuesday evening, July "a, which
will be illustrated with about $50 superb
~stereopticon views, showing Montezu-
ma Castle, Castles of the Verde, the
Pyramids of Taos, the Palaces of the
Mancos, Photograph Rocks, the En-
chanted Mesa, the modern cliff cities,
and numerous pictures of the wonderful
ruins in Arizona, New Mexico and
southwestern Colorado. DR.. Coles dis
coveries and researches have thrown
new light upon a subject of which but
little has been known, and his field
work has attracted the attention of stu
dents and scientific men throughout the
country. The lecture is intensely inter-
esting from a scientific standpoint, be-
ing relieved by laughable incidents of
travel by pack train and adventures in
making perilous ascents and descents
into those wonderful palaces built in
the cliffs more than 1000 feet from the
bottom of the canon. The people of
Santa Fe should not miss this %opportu-
nifty to learn something more about the
wonderful historic points of their sec
ton of the country. The low admission
price of Is cents is small enough to fill
the house to overlooking.

ORE FINDS.
The Mineral Wealth of the Santa Fe
Mountains.

Andres Sena has brought in from the
Santa Fe mountains some very good
looking ore from a new find he has
made fourteen miles southwest of town.
The ore will be assayed for gold, silver
and lead. as it seems to carry all three
of these metals. He say the vein Is
8 feet wide, and has been opened to a
dpth thus far of about 4 feet.
Gus Hunter has men still at work on
his copper-silver claims north of Can
oncito, from which his first assay
showed $S6 per ton, chiefly copper. He
has located three claims. Samples of
the ore. richly impregnated with pea
coock copper are on exhibition at j. e.
Lacome's, and doubling Thomases will
be cheerfully shown it if they call.
The latest sensational find is reported
to-day from neal Galisteo, where it Is
alleged a large deposit Of mother-of-
pearl has been found. If seeing is be-
lieving, the find is certainly a bona fide
one. Col. r. B. Wilson exhibited SAM
Piles at the New Mexican office to-day,
which he states were taken from a spot
near the oA pueblo of Galisteo by a cit
izen of Galisteo. The samples glisten in
the sunlight like richly colored opals.
The rock in which 1t Is incased is black,
very hard and full of curious shaped
shells that have turned to lime. Colonel
| Wilson has filed at the county clerks
| office a location on the ground in be-
half of the d~iscoverer.
w. Atchison is in town from Dolores
today, and states that the Edison ex-

A WORD FOR THE DOGS.
Some Rights That Even Minions of the Law
Should Respect.

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
Santa Fe, July 19.-Now that the city
police and other officers qualified to act
under the mayors proclamation have
so ~gleefully executed their duty and
shot 80 per cent of the dogs in town,
would it not be the part of wisdom to
call off these "Old Sleuths'' of the law?
A cessation of hostilities for a time at
least might prudently be resorted to. 1t
was doubtless the original intention of
the edict to have dispatched all the
loafer dogs about town, VIGOROUSLY vi
streets and strays from the country.
These three classes have been practical
ly done for. SO far so well; but there
are other dogs in this community that
have some rights that even a Santa Fe
policeman should be made to respect as
long as they remain well behaved un-
der the immediate eye of their owners.
The watch dog in the home yard, the
hunting dog that Tolls lazily about the
front stoop, and the small house dog,
the pet and joy of the ome and chill
dren-why authorize a policeman to
brutally shoot down such in the very
presence of the women and children
who are so fond of them? 1t is said
that private rights of citizens have sew
eral times been infringed during the
past few days by officers of the law
pretending to act under the mayors
dog-killing order. People who have paid
the city dog tax must keep their pet
animals securely chained in their dwell
~ings-mind you, in their dwellings, not
in their yards, for in the yards they
are not safe from the eagle-eyed police
men with a gun that they delight to use
on a dog. And good that is to come of
this campaign of determination has, in
all probability, been accomplished,
hence this suggestion to call a halt.
