The Engineering and Mining
Journal this week published tho
following figures on the silver pro-
ductlon OF Now Mexico the past
few years: 1896, 100000 troy
ounces, valued at $4G0, ZOO; 1897.
$50, 600 ounces, 5000, ,265; 1893,
10000 ounces, S2G2,l70; 1899,
425 900 ounces, $253,2l5. In 1899
it stood 9th among tho silver pro-
ducing commonwealth but Of tho
i50 900 ounces credited to Texas,
considerable part should bs
credited to New Mexico AZ the III
paeo smelter receives much Of ile
ore from New Mexico. The same
way Colorado is credited with tho
silver from New Mexico ores treat
ed at the Pueblo, Denver, and
other ameltcrs. The total prodno.
ton OF tho United State last year
was 57.100,000 ounces, not quite
ono third Of the total production
OF silver in the world.
The Engineering and Mining
journal also gives figures on gold
production which does not do JUS
tice to New Mexico, owing to New
Mexico ores being treated at the
Pueblo, lei Paso and other smelt-
ers outside OF tho territory. New
Mexico 10 il credited with tho fol

gold worth $475.S0o; 1897, 22.73s
ounces, $4,000; 1893, 23,222
ounces, Si90,000; 1899, 2i,l90
ounces S500,000. This makes
Nav Mexico 18th among gold pro
ducing commemorative. The total
gold production OF the United
States WAS 4,8l4.000 ounces, which
is over one fourth OF the gold pro-
duced IN the world.
The figures Of coal production
are also given. La 1898. New
Mexico is credited with S63,5S3
tons valued at Sl.416.S90, and in
1899 with 1,0f9, 1872 tons valued at

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
Whereas, the General Assembly OF
Virginia has submitted TO a vote of the
people, the question the calling of a
Constitutional Convention and whereas
il is the evident desire of the white peo-
pie of Virginia TO amend and revise the

ginia TO vote on the Fourth Thursday in
May for calling constitutional cOnven-
tiOn.
Resolved, That ii is the sense of
this convention that is framing a new
constitution, no effort should be made TO
disfranchise any citizen of Virginia who
had right TO vote prior 10 1861, nor the
descendant of any such person, and that
when such constitution shall have been
framed il shall be submitted to vote of

The Nicaragua Canal bill passed
the House last week, after a stormy
debate, during which the lie was
passed by Heburn, the author of the
bill, in clearing himself of a state
ment made by Cannon. The bill will
now go before the Senate. The Pres
ident recommended the construction
of the canal in his message last De-
cember. The bill calls for an appro-
pristion of $40, 100000 to construct
the canal. 1t is thought probable
that Nicaragua, through which coun-
try the canal will run, will ask not
less than $5,OOO,OOO and perpetual
percentage of the profits of the pro-
posed Hepburn bill. The Maritime
Canal Company in their contract
agreed to give 100000 and share
of the receipts, and the Cragin- Eyre
concession called for $S,OOO,OOO in
stock and one-half of the net receipts
after the payment of per cent. div
idend upon the stock. Congress
might consider it advisable to ensure
Nicaragna's favor in the future by
giving it share in the prosperity of
the canal.

The Committee on Resolutions re
ported Immediately after the an
nouncement of the election of dele
gates at large had been made.
Chairman Eugene Withers read the
report. The delegates applauded
every section. The report was as
follows.
I'VE hereby endorse the principles of
Democracy as enunciated in the nation
al platform of the party adopted at
Chicago in 1896.
We heartily endorse William Jennings
Bryan as the logical Democratic candi
date for the presidency of the United
States, and we instruct our delegates TO
the National Democratic Convention to
be held at Kansas City to vote accord
ingly.
I'VE denounce the Republican policy
of Imperialism as un-democratic, un-
American, and unconstitutional.
Virginia has ever been foremost in
battling for the republic against the EN-
pire, and it is with an unfaltering conf
dence in the patriotism of her sons that
we call upon them to again stand
against the empire and for the repub-
lie. We declare that there can be no
government by the republic of our fore
fathers except that which is dominated
by the Constitution of the United States
aud that neither in the promotion of our
welfare nor in accordance with the Con
stitution can the United States acquire
and govern any territory whatsoever as
a subject province nor deny to the people
of any territory to be retained under our
control the blessings of constitutional
liberty, nor can we hope to raise the
level of American citizenship by pour
ing into il a horde of Asiatics.
Therefore, in the interest of the
American people and American institu-
tions, and in harmony with the teachings
of our wisest statesman of all parties
as a plain duty we demand that the
Philippine islands be turned over as soon
as practicable to their own inhabitants;
that the people of Porto Rico be given a
just territorial government before their
substance is stolen by carpet baggers
and that we promptly and honorably
make good our solemn declarations con
corning Cuba. We Democrats of Vir-
ginia are opposed to militaryism and
great standing armies as the worst eni-
mics of the republic.
1--WE declare unalterable opposition to
criminal trusts and TO every other illegal
combination of capital. We denounce
such trusts "a serious menace TO the
public welfare, restricting the opportu-
mites and absorbing the substance of the

A good deal of interest has been
aroused in Congress by the publica-
ton by the State Department of q
report from Consul General Guen-
Their, at Frankfort, Germany, in
which he states positively that the
alleged secret process for armor-
making, owned by the Krupps, is
neither secret nor patented and can
be used by any ohs who wishes. AS
the huge price of $545 per ton, de-
manded by the Bethlehem and Car
negie iron makers was based on asser-
tons that they were obliged to pay a
royalty of $l45 ton for using their
process, the disclosure of the fact
that they could pocket the royalty
themselves, thus adding to the $21,
100000 annual profit of one of them
has created something of sensation.
Consul General Guenther says: "It
is an error to say that Krupp alone
can furnish nickel plates for the
navy. The process of manufacture
is no secret, but is known by every
intelligent manufacturer. If there
were competition, the nickel plates
could be obtained at half price paid
to Krupp. The navy department,
however, prescribes conditions which
makes competition impossible. Tes-
ting grounds are required of the same
dimensions as those of Krupp, which
belong to the Government and have
been rented to him" The Senate
Committee on Naval Affairs, even be-
fore this report was received, had in
serted a provision in the appropriation
bill providing that If srmor could
not be bought at $445 a ton, al ar
NOR plate factory should be made by
the Government and as a similar
provision was narrowly defeated in
the House when the bill was up there
1t seems probable that at last the
project of cutting off the enormous
profits to the steel companies, resis-
ted so strenously and so successfully
by their representatives in Congress,
is about TO succeed.
