imperialism and Colonialism are nee
essarily hostile 10 the spirit Of modern
democracy. IbI virtues and its vices,
its truths and It's fallacies, would all be
outraged by the setting up Of Repub.
lican Imperialism over the Philippines.
Moreover, as the question Of the kind Of
government 20 be established in our de.
Tendencies comes TO be discussed, new
cause Of difference arises. The Repub-
lican party proposes 10 govern the is.
lands outside of the constitution. The
adoption Of this purpose must shock
every Democrat, whether he voted in
1895 for Mr.. Mckinley or for Mr. Bryan; /;
for the theory that the government Of
the United States possesses any political
power or Jurisdiction, whatever, except
the powers and Jurisdiction bestowed
upon II by the constitution, Is repug-
nant 10 every instructed Democratic
mind and 10 many Republican lawyers.
Congress also offends against Democracy
IN giving exclusive or independent
power 10 the executive AZ IL has done in
providing for the government Of Ha-
waii and as IL is likely 10 do in respect
Of other islands. The issue OF imperial-
ism is likely TO play the most important
part In the debates Of the coming cam.
paign, and various phases Of the ques-
ton and its incidents will be presented
10 the voters by the party newspapers
and stump speakers.

A Busy Corner OF New Mexico.

The people of Otero and Lincoln coun-
ties are still a little nettled because the
senators who came u to see New
Mexico skipped that progressive portion
of the territory and did not see the ev-
licences of industrial development in
those two counties, which are breaking
the record at the close of the century,
and are already far ahead of some old
er sections where less energy is to- be
found. But the visitors saw enough in
older communities to make them salts
fled that New Mexico Is all right, and
the wonderful and rapid growth of the
southwestern counties yet to be made
may remtain to be credited abroad as
one result of statehood. To be sure, the
development is going on under the ter
ritorial government, but the rate of
progress will be accelerated by admis-
sion of the territory to statehood. Many
persons in the east still regard New
Mexico as somewhat like the colonial
possessions Of the United States across
the Pacific, being led to so consider it
by the fact that statehood is withheld.
The reason for this they naturally think
is unfitness of the citizens for self-gov-
eminent, and immigrants do not care to
go where such a supposed condition ex-
lists. OF course, all well-informed peo-
pie know that New Mexicans are able
to conduct a state government, and do
manage territorial affairs intrusted to
them as ably as the people of states
conduct public business. The cloud, or
imputation under which the Inhabitants
rest, and that political PARTIES have al
lowed to prevent disturbing the balance
Of power in the senate, will finally be
removed. Then no part Of the country
will receive more immigrants than Lin
coin and Otero counties.

fks EukeFls elssls,

the butohtt hlakus Appears to haze
a habit Of leaping from one country to
another, skipping intervening territory
and surprising the people of localities
where its appearance is not expected.
The first recorded instance Of its occur
renee H.. ne western hemisphere was at
Santos, Brazil, in October last, The
plague, under various names, is a dis
ease which has ravaged the countries
of Africa, Asia and Europe almost from
time immemorial. Pestilence supposed
to have been the plague prevailed in
Athens from 1872 to APO B. c. One histo-
rian calculates that one-fourth of the
population of Europe, or rs, 900, 900 per-
sons, died in all the epidemics in the
fourteenth century.
In the light of experience In other
parts of the world it seems reasonable
to believe that even were the disease in
PRODUCED in the United States its spread
would be limited in cities where the
sanitary conditions are good, and where
precautions as to the isolation of pa
tients and the segregation of those ex-
posed to infection could and would be
practiced. The death rate varies in diff
ferent epidemics, and is estimated at
from so to 80 per cent. There is a va
ration also according to na~tionalities,
Chinese seemingly being the most sus-
ceptible people.

Over the Territory.

The editors of the territory who sit in
their offices and study upon things polit-
ical should erase from their inner o n
seriousness the idea that the people of
New Mexico are giving much concern to
the question of who shall have this or
that political honor during the coming
campaign. One who gets out among
them occasionally run up against some
attorney, public man or capitalist who
asks concerning political combinations
and alleged rivalries and enmities which
imaginative writer's represent as keep
ing the capital city people awake nights,
but the question is usually asked as a
matter of form, and the public gener-
ally e to have no knowledge that
this is a campaign year, so far as they
show it by their talk. Conversation Of
he average person met anywhere in
New Mexico now turns to topics relat-
ing to mining. live stock, railway build
ing and irrigation enterprises. The pos
sibility of statehood at an early date is
frequently the subject of conversation,
M one rarely hears opposition to it ex-
pressed, yet the subject is so old and so
many disappointments have been expe-
rienced In the past that the people are
not very hopeful Of immediate action by
congress. But regarding industrial de-
velopment, the permanency of prosper
ity in the territory, and the success Of
great mining enterprises now under
way, there are no pessimists i'm evil
dence in the most active portions Of the
territory, and along the railways, al
though there may be people in the back
country who have mot combed the moss
from their backs. But even in the most
secluded communities the people are
better fixed and more prosperous than
ever, and when such a condition pre-
walls r not now prematurely on
cerned about local politics nor disposed
to assist anySoiy who would overthrow
the adminlst..t ion under which satfs-
factory conditions have been created.

Important IRRIGATION Work,

The most important enterprise under
taken in Bernalillo county in the last
decade liz the Irrigation system now be-
ing made through the cooperation Of
certain discerning citizens of Albuquer-
que. The canal, now we'll advanced, will
supply 10000 acres of land, of which
about Il, 900 acres lies above the city and
5000 below. Most of the land belongs
to stockholders or persons VINO will use
the water the canal will supply. Many
small farms a be made profitable by
this enterprise, and the wonder is that
The cost Of construction Is not enor-
nous, because a reservoir Is not neces-
aary, and only an overflow diverting
dam is necessary to turn the water into
the canal, and the canal Is easily exca-
waited. The establishment of stock
farms, alfalfa plantations, truck farms
and orchards will soon follow upon fer
tile lands that are now unused, and a
large population will be maintained and
be directly tributary to Albuquerque.
Vast quantities of supplies viii be
grown for the local market, which must
now buy in the east and pay ~transportas
tion charges. There are many other To-
caftties in New Mexico where capitalists
or combinations of farmers could do
what IL being done near Albuquerque,
and perhaps as cheaply. The work there
IL not Of a temporary character, nor
patterned after the old style ditch. It is
q modern canal, more complete perhaps
than any In the territory, except those
In the -Tscos valley, with a depth of s
fsst and Z width Of 20 feet on the bottom
and Of so feet on the water surface.

The Pioneers Did Great Work.

Alexander Majors, who died at SIT.
Louis a few days ago, was one of the
pioneer freighters of the Santa Fe trail.
The. pony express and the overland
stage lines originated in his active
brain, and they We're the f~orerunners Of
the Santa Fe railroad and other west
ern trunk lines. He crossed the Missis-
sippi in an old sco when st. Louis was
q mere frontier village. He saw civili-
zation advance from the Mississippi to
the Missouri, from the Missouri to the
mountains, and from the mountains to
the Pacific coast; in brief, saw the from
tier wiped out and the continent become
a chain of prosperous states. 1t is to
pioneers like Alexander Majors that the
country owes gratitude for having CIV
en- 1t the vast empire west of the Mis-
sissippi.

Underground Water.

Work upon the low-line canal near
Albuquerque has resulted in a discov-
cry that may be of great Importance to
the valley. In e~xcavating the canal, 60
ing up the grade toward the dam site,
an underground water supply has been
developed which does not come from the
river, where it is parallel with the can
al, for in the excavation water rises to
a height of 2 feet clear across the 90
foot width of the cut, and to a level
higher than that of the Rio Grande near
by. The water has been found in this
quantity for the distance of n mile
along the canal, and has to be sluiced
into h river through a ditch at the
lower end, in order that the excavation
car proceed. Apparently the flow is
from some great depth, though it is
possible that it comes from the river
miles above, and has been damned
through some action of nature, and can
not drop back into the channel. The
soil in which the water is found is not
marshy nor salty, and the moisture is
entirely below an impervious clay. Ex-
periments are being made to determine
whether the water sheet extends east
ward to the hills, and If it does a great
quantity of land which the canal is not
intended to supply can be watered by
pumping. New Mexico has much 70
learn with regard to the underground
water supply which exists in many Sec
tions, and the time will come when
many parts of the territory will find
water below for irrigation. But the
construction of neighborhood canals
like the low-line system should be at
tended to at once wherever possible.
