Statehood Opposition.

1t cannot be expected, in the course
OF m events, that every citizen OF
New Mexico will be in favor of the nd.
mission of the territory into the sister,
hood of states. There are some people
of the territory who oppose this admis-
sion. Some Of them are honestly mis-
taken: others oppose the movement for
personal or POLITICAL interests; again,
others are Ignorant of the benefits
statehood would confer; some do not
care, and some are opposed for vicious
reasons. But as all movements for the
betterment of society and the conditions
of political subdivisions In this as well
as every other country have at times
been opposed, New Mexico cannot ex-
pect to go free. There Is no doubt in
the minds Of well-informed observers
that the great majority of the good peo-
pie of the territory, the taxpayers and
land owners, favor speedy admission to
statehood. That this will come during
the life Of the present congress Is cry
likely. That 1t ought to come, and in all
right and Justice should come, Is too
patent to be very much discussed.

such phenomenal rapidity, that lum-
Der tracts which seemed a store of in
~eXhaustible wealth We're RACED to the
ground. The result has been dried-up
streams, lack of irrigation. and in some
places actual and d~isagreeable change
of climate. But now that the federal
government has established forest re-
serves, and the uses for wood are grow
ing less, there is hope that many vast
areas in the United States not useful for
any other purpose will be covered again
with forests that will not be cut down
by spectators with reckless greed.

A Unique Character.

Andrew Carnegie is a living example
that a mar can accumulate wealth
without robbing others. 1t Is an estab.
lished fact that under his management
the wages of mien in his works We're
more than doubled, and the price of the
products they turned out not only bet
tered in quality, but also lowered in
price. Carnegie is a unique character,
who somehow Is not liked by the
wealthy, for he said a mans life is a
failure if he dies and leaves one dollar
of his fortune unspent; nor has the av-
erage poor man any love for him, for
they look upon him as they do upon all
men of wealth, as an enemy. The Re
publican party has no further use for
him on account of his political vagaries,
and the Democratic party can have nc
sympathy with him whatever. Even
the tramp has reason to hate him, for
Carnegie is the strongest advocate Of
the doctrine that charity is not for the
lazy man, and that no one should be
given food or clothes unless he is will
ing to work for them. Some of Mr.. Car
negie's books advocate the rankest kind
Of socialism, and yet he lives like "a king.
Contemporaneous history finds no place
for him, but after his death history may
acknowledge him one of the great men
of this age.

The convention held by the National
Live Stock Association at Fort Worth,
Texas, did the proper thing by petition
Ing congress to admit New Mexico, Ari-
IONA n Oklahoma to statehood. The
stockmen are we'll acquainted with con-
ditions in the territories, and know that
statehood is necessary for the growth
and development of the southwest. 1t Is
to be hoped that congress will spare
enough time from the Roberts and
Clark debates to consider statehood for
the territories, for the conviction is ripe
that if congress one gives the question
proper consideration statehood will no
longer be- denied New Mexico.

apostles of clear water might as we'll
spare themselves the trouble and ex-
pense as far as their chances of success
in the next national election are CON
cerned. Prohibition is making much
less Of a stir to-day than 1t did ten
years ago. People in general have come
to the conclusion hat to drink or not
to drink is a question for the individual
to decide, and that the drink evil must
be abated not by legislation, but by
moral persuasion and by lifting men
and women to a higher plane of moral
ity, things which cannot be done by en-
acting laws on the statute books.

Rome had reached it's lowest point of
degradation when it's crown was sold on
the street to the highest bidder. The
darkest blot on the history of the United
States will be the fact that seats in
congress We're bought for money. For
that aso the crime of which Senator
Clark of Montana is accused is a helm
GUS one, and those who sold their votes
to him are still greater criminals than
he. All honor to the United States sem
ate that it will not allow such a blot
to rest upon it, and that it is carefully
and diligently Investigating the charge.

Some senators and Representatives ac-
quire notoriety, or fame, as they deem
it, offering all sorts of fool resolutions
n making all manner of crank mo-
tons to embarrass the administration.
Some of the national legislators are so
little imbued with the dignity of the
office intrusted to them that they make
the floors of the senate and of the house
the scene of political campaigns and
chicanery rather than a place where
laws for the good of the nation are de-
Dated n passed. Some men never get
beyond the bar-room stage of politics
and manhood.

The sum of 1894. "a turned into the ter
ritorial treasury yesterday by Governor
Otero for the public school fund is not
a fortune, but it is a good beginning OF
the flow of money for the public schools
which will come from the judicious
leasing of the school lands of the terri
tory. If New Mexico schools had had a
source of income from the lease OF
school sections for the past twenty
years the great progress made in edu-
cational lines the last two decades
would have been still greater.

as the sugar beet farmers are needed

The Duke of Marlborough has at last
left for the seat Of war in South Africa.
He took with him two Wallets, and will
spend a month at Cape Town to prepare
himself to go to the front. By that time
probably the "blawsted war" will be in
its last throes, and the duke will return
home as one of the victors of the fray.

COST OF PRINTING INCREASED.
There Is Great Advance In Cost of Many
Supplies.

At a meeting Of the Typothetae (mas-
ter printers association, held Decem-
ber Is, a discussion upon the increased
cost Of printing took place, and a COM
lnittee was appointed to draw up a list
of actual increases in printing and bind
ing supplies Within the past five months,
the report to be a candid statement, to
be shown to the sum of printed
matter, blank books, stationery, etc.
The following is the list, which Is guar
anteed absolutely correct:
INCREASED COST OF PRINTING
AND BINDING SUPPLIES.

These advances are authentic, and
represent the actual condition to-day.
This condition OF the market may
seem at first glance to be due to the
operations of trusts or trade combina-
tions, but this is only true to a limited
extent. Unprecedented demand for the
past year, scarcity of bleaching mate
used in the manipulation of wood
pulp and rags, the denuding of young
spruce trees Within reach of pulp mills,
low water in New England during the
greater part OF the year, all go to ac-
counting for this extraordinary scarcity
in the paper market. The limit 10 prob
ably MOI yet reached, and prices will 80
somewhat higher in the near future.
