CATTLE INFESTED WITH TICKS.

A car load of ticky cattle en-
route to Lordsburg, New Mexico,
were held up few days ago at
Ell Paso. The cattle were ship
ped from Sherman, Texas, and
passed by the inspector at Ft.
Worth. On reaching Ell Paso
they were found to be diseased,
and will be held there until some
time in January before they can
enter New Mexico.
Governor Otero not long since
issued proclamation excluding
Texas cattle, alleging existence
of ticks. New Mexico authorities
have agreed to admit them, how
ever, as soon as the inspector at
Ell Paso releases them from quar-
antine. Stockmen in New Mexico
are continually on the lookout for
importations of diseased cattle
into the territory from Texas.
The ticks cause a fever and re-
suits in the death of the animal
often, and is thought to be con-
tagious.

logical survey, the total value of
all of the mineral products of the
United States for the last calen-
dar year amounted to S976, ,OOS, ,O46,
which was an increase of practi-
cally forty per cent over the pre-
vious year, the most notable in
crease ever recorded in the history
of the country.
1t is undoubtedly true, says the
Las Vegas Optic, that greater
number of large fortunes in COM
parison with the number of men
engaged have been built up in
mining than in any other industry
in the country, and that in a
shorter space of time.
In the the growth and develop
ment of the mining industry of
the country, the territory of New
Mexico has as yet taken little
part. Yet we have known mini
eral resources of greater variety
and it is generally believed in
greater abundance than any state
in the union. And the time is
near at hand when the work of
development of our mineral re-
sources will be taken up on scale
commensurate with their actual
Importance. When this is done
nothing that can be named will
pour a greater stream OF wealth
into the territory than will flow
from the marketing of the prod
ucts of its mines.
cERRiLLAs DISTRICT.
Cerrillos, December 1.-THE
outlook grows brighter every day,
so say old-timers in Cerrillos.
There is much talk of the report
ed purchase of coal lands south of
here. This will insure the con-
struction of the Santa Fee, Albu-
querque & Pacific railroad in the
near future.
1t is reported that the mill of
the Baird Mining Company, as
we'll as the new smelter of the
Santa Fe Gold and Copper Com
pany, will start up next week
with full force of hands.

shortage in the summer caused
the company to close down the
mill temporarily. There is now
plenty of water in the district,
and all owners will do more or
less development, while the large
companies will actively operate
their properties. New Mexican.
SANTA RITA TO BE OPENED.
The Albuquerque Citizen says
Boston company is reopening
one of the historic mines of New
Mexico, the Santa Rita, near
Silver City, property which rec
ords show was worked by the
Spaniards long before American
prospectors entered the territory,
which is now a part of the United
States. In the archives at the
City of Mexico are records that
show that the Santa Rita mine
was abandoned in 1880, after it
had been operated for long term
of years. The cause of abandon
ing the mine, it is stated, was
that great cavern had occurred,
killing a large number of men.
The mine was guarded by a
strong body of soldiers, who sta
toned behind adobe forts, the
ruins of which can be still traced,
stood off the Indians while the
miners worked the rich copper
ores. The ore was raised to the
surface on the backs of the miners,
in leather sacks or baskets. Then
it was carefully sorted and the
richer ores packed to Chihuahua
or the City of Mexico on burros.
The Boston company owns
about one square mile of mineral
land surrounding the old work
ings. The mine is now being
Systematically developed, three
shafts being in course of sinking,
and large area has been given
out to leasers to work. A cotton
concentrator and a teaching plant
is at work on the old dumps, from
which good values are obtained.

THE MINERAL
MoGoLLoN DISTRICT ACTIVE.

The Last Chance mine at Mo-
gollon is being steadily operated
with good results. The large
amalgamation plant of the Last
Chance company is running con-
tinuously, treating large amount
of high grade ore. The results
of the past years operation are
the most gratifying to the COM
pany, and it is planning for larger
and more extensive operations
during the coming year. This
company has done extensive de-
velopment work during the past
year, and by this means keeps a
large body of ore blocked out, so
that there will be no necessity
of closing down the mill for want
of ore. A large force of men are
employed by the company, and
every detail of the management
is carefully looked after.
The Silver Bar Mining Com
pany is working steadily, and
good results are being obtained.
The Silver Bar continues to pro-
duce a large quantity of high
grade ore. Development work
goes on, and new machinery is
installed as required. The mine
is in first-class condition, great
deal of development having been
done during the past year. A
force of twenty-five men is en-
ployed.
The Little Fanny mine is now
being operated, and the results
are splendid. For some time past
the owners of this famous mine
have been engaged in develop
ment work only. AS a result,
mary hundreds of tons of rich
grade ore were blocked out. The
operators of the property are now
taking out this ore and treating
it. The Little Fanny will un-
doubtedly be big paying propo-
sition for many years to come.
The B O B Mining Company is
not operating its property at
present, but it is reliably reported
that operations will begin soon
after the first of the year. The
property gave very satisfactory
results during its operations the
first of this year, but the water

ADMINISTRATIONS FOREIGN POLICY CONDEMNED.

Ex-President Harrison'S lecture
before the students lecture asso-
citation of Michigan University on
the question of the relation of
annexed territories and their civ
ilized inhabitants to the United
States, scores the administrations
policy from alpha to omega. The
St. Louis Republics notice of the
ex-president's arguments, says:
The lecture was, as General
Harrison declared, not intended
to be Il legal argument on ques-
tionS brought into discussion by
the Porto Rican act, but rather
popular discussion of some of
the views that have been express
ed in relation to the inhabitants
of our annexed territories.
The lecturer declared that we
had done something out of line
with our historical prccedcnts-
not in the way of expansion, but
in the character of it. He said
we had taken over peoples, rather
than lands, as heretofore. He
held to the view that the civilized
inhabitants of the territories were
citizens of the United States, and
that the revenue provisions of the
Constitution, relating to taxation
for Federal purposes, applied to
the territories.
The occasion for the recent de-
parture from precedent was found,
he said, especially in the charac-
ter of the inhabitants of the
Philippines. AS to Porto Rico
and Hawaii there would probably
have been no occasion found for
treating them otherwise than
we have usually done.
White Oaks eagle. (White Oaks, N.M.) 189?-190?, 1900-12-27

The competition of our home
products, and especially the free
dom of the Filipinos to settle in
the states, were causes of alarm.
These considerations, he said,
might very appropriately have
had influence when the question
of taking over the Philippines
was before us, but it was now
too late.
He agreed that the provisions
of the Spanish treaty, and of all
treaties, were subject to the COns
stitution, and could not impair it,
and if these islands became part
of the United States, in the sense
of the Constitution their people
became citizens, and the revenue
clause, which was especially un-
der discussion in the Porto Rican
case, applied.
He argued that the limitations
in the Constitution upon the pow
ers of congress, whether expressed
in the affirmative or negative
form, applied to exercise of that
power in all places; that the very
object in the section requiring
duties to be uniform throughout
the United States-which was to
prevent congress from establish
ing anywhere under the jurisdic-
tion of the United States favored
ports would be thwarted, if for
eign goods might be admitted to
Porto Rico free, and thence into
the United States free.
He especially dwelt upon the
liberty clauses of the Constitution
as necessarily applicable to all
civilized peoples owing allegiance
to the United Ssates.

rhe Maine style~of rlen.

Why is it that Maine is in the habit Of
sending men to Washington like Blaine.
Reed, Dinghy, Hale, Frye, Bontelle'
! Burleigh, Allen and Littlefieid? Vastly
greater States, like New York, Pepnsyi-
vania. and Illinois, do not do this. 1t is
| not necessary to search long to ascertain
why it is that the character and capacity
OF the Maine representatives 10 the Senate
and House average So much better than
those of most of the other States
1t is not because Maine is blessed with
SO much superior talent. 1t is because
Maine is not cursed with powerful par
tlsan machine whose boss is able to name
Senators and congressman.
Two men of opposing politics In this
State practically name the majority of
Senators, congressman, and State officers.
Their will, in existing conditions, is more
potential than the wishes of a million
voters. These men are not above sus-
plcion, and they have powerful party ma
chimes at their back to enforce their edicts.
When there are menacing popular pro-
tests, they not infrequently secretly COM
bine their forces to prevent the success of
honest policies and honest candidates
Hence, We ask, where is there an equal
to Littlefield, Names new Congressman,
in New York's whole delegation to the
House of Representatives.? Mr.. Platt and
MIR. Croker have active lieutenants among
them, ready to nimbly do their bidding !;
but the people look in vain to any New
York Congressman for leadership on the
floor when any important issue is pending.
Probably not one out of every tt readers
| could even call by name the "organiza-
ton Republican who represents this dis
trlct, and yet he is serving his second term.
And those who know his name would be
stumped if called upon to designate any
thing he has done beyond the merest rou-
tine duty, which a schoolboy could have
performed as well.
In Maine there is probably not one
voter in hundred who could not readily
name his Representative in Congress.
There are no obscuIities, no ''heelers,'' in
the delegation. All are men of promi-
nence, ability, and stability; of the same
general type that should be elected else
| where, and would be but for the inter
vention of machines to promote compliant
| followers rather than to nominate states
men for Congress.
| Bosses are distrustful and jealous of
men of conspicuous Intellectual qualifi-
| cations. They prefer small men, as they
fear their ability to handle others. Hence
it is that Congress is replete with cheap
politicians who have no fitness for the
discharge of important legislative func-
lions.
If Maine gets along without party ma
chimes, and has statesmen of great ability
to represent its interests. is there any
sound reason why New York, Pennsyl-
vania, or Illinois could not also dispense
! with a corrupt SYSTEM of bossism which
debauches politics and degrades govern
ment? Troy, n. y, Press.
