Spanish q Necessity.

The United States will help to make
Spanish a world language. Most of the
public schools in the larger cities of this
country are now making the STUDY of
Spanish compulsory. The responsible
ties assumed by this government over
TO- 900, 900 to 10. 900, 900 Of Spanish-speak-
ing people makes the acquisition of that
language by the American officials in
those countries almost a necessity to
the solution of the many problems that
confront the republic, and the tactful
and diplomatic treatment of the people
who have been freed from oppression
and misrule. The recent development of
Mexico and the great future in store
for Central America and South Ameri-
ca. where Spanish Is spoken altogether,
will also make the acquisition of Span
ish by the coming generation IN the
United States a matter that will pay
in dollars and cents. There is every rea-
son why the educated American, like
the educated European, should BIZ able
to speak three or four languages. Span
ish is a beautiful and a musical Ian
guage, which has a treasure house of
literature, and aside from commercial
purposes the knowledge of that tongue
will give pleasure and satisfaction. The
day will come when the American who
does no speak and write fluently Eng
fish, German and Spanish, with perhaps
a knowledge Of French, will not be con-
a person whose education has
the high standard that Is being
set by the nations universities ard col
leges.

The Decrease OF Crime.

The assertions of LombroSo and other
| preachers of ~-degeneracy to the con-
trary, crime is decreasing in the United
lieved hat material progress is made at
the expense of the moral standards OBJ
served by the nation. A recent issue of
the Forum, however, gives statistics
Most assertions as to the increase of
crime rest upon the census figures OF
the prison population. These show an
increase greater than the Increase OF
population, but this increase is caused
by the moral standard of the nation
having been raised to a higher plane
Many tranSgressions of the law at the
present day were not considered trans
gressions thirty or fifty years ago. Ir
Massachusetts, for instance, whose jail
population showed a most alarming in
crease in late years, this is due to the
doubling Of the penalty for drunken
ness. Crimes of violence against the
person decreased in Massachusetts in
the same time from "a per l 1000 to So per
1 900. The same decrease is noticeable
in Ohio, Michigan-in fact, in nearly
all of the other states and territories.
Even in New Mexico this is apparent,
for while the number of convictions for
crime is undoubtedly greater at the
present day than it was thirty or forty
years ago, yet crimes are steadily or
the decrease. The growth of cities has
increased the number of offenses which
must be punished, and has put under
the ban Of the law deeds formerly
deemed harmless, such as throwing
rubbish in the streets, riding bicycles
without lamps Or bells, and breaches of
sanitary regulations. Taken altogeth-
er, the world Is getting better and at a
rapid rate at that.

A Problem OF Metallurqy.

Second only in Importance to the
problems of irrigation in the west are
the problems of metallurgy to recover
the values from low-grade ores. Every
once in awhile a new process is herald
ed to the world as having solved the
problem, but. time generally proves
most of them failures. Yet, new proc
esses have been put to the test that un-
der certain conditions and upon certain
ores are a success, and many a low
grade mine and many a dump by those
meant have turned out to be a source
Of wealth. If there was a successful
and cheap process to treat the countless
tons of zinc-bearing ore which are
thrown away because the presence of
zinc increases the cost of treatment to
a degree which renders production un-
profitable; II there was a profitable
method to saw the fine gold in the low
grade gravel and concrete found in i'm
mense masses In New Mexico, then
thousands Of more miners would be CIV
en- employment in New Mexico and Col
and the present production of the
precious metals in the Rocky noun
tain states would be doubled.

A Rush for Public Office.

The rush for jobs in the census bu-
reau at Washington is tremendous. The
placard at the door of the bureau that
no more clerks are needed has abso-
lutely no effect. The thirst of the aver
age American for public office is some
thing remarkable. 1t is a standing joke
that if wide-awake parents see that
their son would be a failure in any
calling or profession they educate him
for the ministry, but at the present day
a man who cannot earn his living in
any other way imagines that he is the
man who should be in the employ of
Uncle Sam. The old adage of the office
seeking the man has gone out Of bust
ness, and the energy and means ex-
| pended by the average office-seeker to
get a little 5000 a a clerkship would
make most of them wealthy and indie
| pendent in any other occupation OF
business. Fortunately, Uncle Sam gen
orally picks out competent men to dc
| his work.

After many intricate experiments,
scientists have discovered METHODS for
obtaining all the natural digestants.
These have been combined in the pro-
portion found in the human body and
united with substances that build up
the digestive organs, making a COM
pound called Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. 1t
digests what you eat and allows all dys-
peptics to eat plenty of no%urishing food
while the stomach troubles are being
radically cured by the medicinal agents
it contains. 1t is pleasant to take, and

Col. w. J. Bryan has advised the
Democratic leaders not to go rainbow
which will probably be strong for Nc
Kinley and Roosevelt, but to concen-
trate their work upon the middle west,
for by carrying Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Indiana and Illinois, the Democratic
presidential ticket may have a chance
of being elected. OF course, this Is rain
bow chasing, too, and Colonel Bryan
and his followers will realize that before
the dawn of another year. Unless all
indications fail the Republican MAORI
ties in the middle west will be tremen-
dous, and will not be far from the mil
lion mark.

WASTE IN LARGER RIVERS.

THAT, as both land and water become
more valuable their use requires better
methods and the growth of higher
priced products. In the region under
discussion irrigation is chiefly from
small streams, and nearly all the water
supply which can be diverted is appro-
priated, but large volumes of water still
run to waste in the larger rivers. 1t is
along these we must look for future de-
velopment, but the utilization of this
supply involves questions outside the
scope of this investigation. These large
rivers, as a rule. drain the mountain
SUBMITS, and have a more uniform flow
than the small streams, as the snow
which feeds them melts slowly. The
small streams, on the contrary, fiuctu-
ate so widely in volume that 1t usually
happens hat more water runs to waste
before irrigation of cultivated crops be-
gins than is available for use in July,
when the need for such crops is great
est.
1.-The distinction between the abun-
dant and hence cheap water supply of
the first half of the irrigating eason
and the scanty and valuable supply in
the latter half Is made in appropria-
lions and water rights contracts in the
irrigated districts of Europe, but as yet
have not been considered in this
try. We are not likely to ignore this
much longer. A second-foo Of water
for the month of August is worth ten or
twenty times as much as the same vol
ume for May, because it will make pos
sible the irrigation of larger areas and
the growing of higher-priced products.
1t is this consideration which gives to
water storage its significance, and
which will ultimately govern the num-
Der and cost Of the works to provide for

A GOOD COUGH MEDICINE.

Many thousands have been restored
to health and happiness by the 8 OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. If at
f1icted with any throat or lung trouble,
give it a trial, for 1t Is certain to prove
beneficial. Coughs that have resisted
all other treatment for years have
yielded to this remedy and perfect
health been restored. Cases that seemed
hopeless, that the climate Of famous
health resorts failed to benefit, have
been permanently cured by it's use. For

That much is still to be learned in re-
gard to the quantity of water requisite
for the development of particular crops
is evident from a bulletin recently pub
lished by the department of agriculture.
But this is evident hat generally too
much water is used, and that if there
was an economical distribution of water
the area under irrigation could be dou-
bled. Water is also of much more value
later in the season han in May and
June. Early in the year much water
flows to waste which should be stored
for use later in the season., during
| drouths, and to extend the area under
irrigation. The study of scientific irri-
! cation, it's relations to plant life and
| growth, are of great Importance 10 the
arid west, and the reclamation of the
arid west is as great an economic prob
lem as was ever faced by a nation.

Joseph Weldon Bailey, who posed as a
Democratic leader in the house, has
purchased a big farm neal Dallas, Tex,
and paid $3.50, 900 for it, the money being
advanced by Ex-Governor Francis of

worthy of notice We're it not that Sena-

Seth Low, president of Columbia col
lege, who is also a political leader, is an
advocate of the eight-hour system of
labor. He made the discovery last week
that the men employed in the engine
roomsa and other departments connected
with the power-generating plant were
working twelve hours a day. Although
it involved an increased item of expense
he changed the number of hours of la
Dor from twelve to eight, giving each
employe four additional hours to HIM
self and the same rate of pay as when
he worked twelve hours. The change
went into effect on July /.
Unlike many others, Low practices
what he breaches. Still, the cost of the
innovation at Columbia college does no
come out of his pocket, and that makes
his consistency a good deal easier.
