As 10 the Solicitor General.

Some Of our esteemed contemporaries
are advocating the adjustment of the
office of solicitor general and are ask
ing: What does the solicitor general do
anyhow" This question should not be
answered; in fact it should be ignored.
However, it seems that an Albuquerque
attorney answered it, saying to a repre-
sentative of the Citizen who put the
question: What does the solicitor gen.
eral do? Why he does nothing except
to consult with the governor This is
absolutely, unquestionably, unqualified
ly and unequivocally correct with this
exception, that in addition to being the
legal adviser of the governor, and the
governor consulting him upon points OF
law and receiving his advice on other
matters pertaining to the territory, the
solicitor general also represents the ter
ritory in all cases where the latter is a
party in the supreme court; also upon
request of the governor he tries murder
cases in the district courts.
Were there no solicitor general and
were uIlG SONtIIlOl dllu III
officials compelled to ask legal advice
every time an occasion arises, from
such lawyers as they should employ,
and were the territory to employ an at
torney to represent it in the supreme
court and to try murder cases in the
district courts, the expense would be
Just about twenty times what it Is now.
1t would cost from $4,000 to $50, 900 per
year the way attorneys charge in New
Mexico. At present the solicitor gener-
al receives $4,000 per year.
Every state and territory has an Off
cial who is called the solicitor or attor-
ney general and who is the legal advis-
or of the executive and who is also the
legal advisor of all the state or territor-
ial officials. He represents the state or
territory in legal cases in the supreme
court. The adjustment of the office
would be economy with a vengeance.
No doubt there are some Albuquerque
who would like the office abol-
ished in order to get fat fees, amount
ing to thousands and thousands of dol
lars per annum, but the representatives
of the people in the 34th legislative as
sembly will not be ready to do that, as
their record Upon the adjournment of
the session will prove.

whom to unload. McGrath was a new
conner to the camp, and he was selected
as a victim. He was invited to visit the
ground, and being familiar from long
experience with various classes of rock,
the Denver man at once arrived at the
conclusion that something unusually,
desirable was within reach. Upon the
spot he concluded without delay to sink
a shaft in a part of the ground that had
o been p~rospected.
The former owners laughed, but in a
few days their laughter changed to
chagrin, for a streak Of copper two in
ches wide was encountered, which grad
ually widened, until it is now looked
upon as one of the richest parts of the
camp.
Silver City," said Mr.. McGrath yes
terday, sis surrounded by a mining dis
trict which has many a mines, and is
coming forward rapidly since COLORADO
Springs, Cripple Greek and Pueblo cap
ital became interested. Fully a score
of substantial producing mines could be
named lfdl nave cOIlIIleIlCtu SIlppll5
within the past year.. The old Cooney
mine, owned by Colorado Springs capt.
t~alists, was purchased eight months
ago. Since taking possession the a
agement has sold over $35, 900 worth of
ore and experts recently measured up
$500, 900 worth of ore in the property. 1t
is a copper mine, and has an ore body
seven feet wide running 20 per cent or
upwards. j. r. Mckinney, the we'll
known Colorado Springs mining man, is
~patenting a fine group Of claims, and
John H. Graham of Denver, owner of
the Confidence mine, is shipping regu-
larry to the smelters.

men, and has IS, 900, 900 worth of copper
ore in sight. The Hearst estate has a
valuable mine at Pinos Altos, where ore

Mr.. McGrath will return to Silver
City after spending a few days with
friends in Denver.

Is II a Real Thing?

The dog days are over, but the news
papers are merrily keeping up the war
over the question: rs hydrophobia a
Pigment of the imagination or is it a
reality?" The Chicago Inter-Ocean
contributes the following case as an ar
gument Upon the question:
1.-THE death of John R. Beart Of Wa
bash avenue, illustrates a point that
has been dwelt upon for years by phys
icians and surgeons.
"Mr. Beart in August last had a
struggle with a bulldog and was bitten
in three places. The struggle in itself
was of a character to produce nervous
exhaustion, to say nothing of the lnutil-
alton by the dog. Upon examination 1t
was shown that the dog was not aff'ict-
ed with rabies.
"Mr. Beart recovered from the imme-
date effects of the struggle and re-
turned to his work. But a week ago he
was taken i'll and he grew steadily
worse to the end. Those in attendance
believe that he died of fear of hydro
phobia.
''There is no dispute as to the main
facts in the case. The dog that attack
ed Mr.. Beart did not have any disease.
Mr.. Beart had no symptoms of hydro
phobia, but he lived for months in hor-
ror of the most dreaded of diseases, and
this resulted in conditions that caused
death.
IF the dog that made the attack on
Mr.. Beart had been killed, as is usual
in such cases, the cas- would undoubt-
eddy have been catalogued in the hydro
phobia list. AS the case stands, it gives
strength to the theory that a great
many of the so-called cases of rabies
are produced solely by fear"

A GOOD MINING SECTION.
P. T. McGrath Tells Denver People Of the

Denver Republican,

P. r. McGrath, a well-known mining
man, who has been operating recently
in the region Of Silver City, N. M, reg

this week. Mr.. McGrath brought to
Denver, for the ~edification Of his
friends, the most striking samples Of
copper ore ever shown there. The sam
pies were taken from a big porphyry
dyke, and will run from so to 70 per cent
copper. The pay streak in the bottom
of the shaft, according to the happy
discoveries, Is thirty inches wide and
the large samples which are shown
seem to confirm the claim.

HAGERMAN AND SURROUNDINGS.
A Beautiful and Prosperous Part of The
Pecos Valley.
Rocky Mountain News.)

Hagerman, is a comparatively new
and flourishing town of the Pecos valley
located on the Pecos Valley railroad,
between the rapidly growing cities of
Roswell and Carlsbad, and is named in
honor of j. j. Hagerman, multi-million-
| aire, president of the Pecos Valley rail-
road system, resident of the Pecos val
interests.
Mr.. Hagerman has a palatial resi-
dence with park-like private grounds
on Hagerman Heights overlooking
Carlsbad, and is now preparing to
build a second magnificent family home
in the Roswell vicinity, the property on
Hagerman Heights being very proba-
bly, devoted in the mean future to the
| purposes of a superb Carlsbad sanitar-
ium.
The town of Hagerman less than
three years ago was only a railroad
side track and now is a municipality
replete with commercial activity and
residential beauties. Tributary to the
lOWH are NdSl CdItLc Idhl6CS oIoShSu
with improved beef grades and a wide
agricultural area subject to ample and
active canal irrigation. Alfalfa, grown
in profusion and perfection, re-enforces
the fattening qualities of the nutritious
grasses of the open stock ranges, while
cantaloupes mature thirty days earlier
than i'm adjacent northern latitudes.
From Hagerman have been shipped
SOM of the finest block beeves ever
leaving the Pecos valley, while toma-
toes and other table vegetables are for
warded to eastern and northern points
at fancy prices.
At Carlsbad, r. w. Tansill, the man.
ufacturer of the worldwide known
'"Tansill Punch cigar, has made a
beautiful and permanent family home
and established his personal business
headquarters, being, at the same time,
one of the heaviest investors in Pecos
valley interests and most active promo
ters of Pecos valley progress and pros
perity.
RESOURCES OF PECOS VALLEY.
The Pecos valley itself includes that
portion of New Mexico lying east and
west of the Pecos river for a distance
of 200 miles, the valley width ranging
from twenty to fifty miles on either side
of the river, or ar average aggregate
valley breadth of, perhaps, sixty miles.
The irrigation systems, including both
canal and artesian we'll sources, are al
ready extensive and, owing to the TX
haustless water supply, can be event.
ually developed to the covering and Gull
tivation Of every fertile farming acre
of the valley.
1t Is conservatively estimated that,
including the cost of the construction
of the Pecos Valley railroad, there has
been actually invested in the Pecos val
ley within the last twelve years over
SIS, 900, 900. The valley now has about
-, 900 people and, with its rapidly APP
preaching full development, will event.
display figures approximating a
population of $4,000.
The climate of the Pecos valley ap-
proaches the ideal, the officially record
ed temperature, for instance, for the
period between December Is, 1899, and
April 1890, showing a daily average Of

This looks bad for Turkey, for it seems
to be a tacit admission that affairs at

would not bear investigation. That is
the more reason why the United States

Harpoot, especially since Americans
have erected colleges and schools at
that point in Asia Minor.

THE B0ERS HOPE.
LOOK TO BRYAN's ELECTION
FOR POSSIBLE AID.
Europe Ready for Intervention if Unit.
ed States Will Lead, According
To Enjoys.

New York, May 2S.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Intervention by the United States in
the South African war is still hoped for
by the Boer commissioners and they base
their continuing faith on the possible
ing far ahead, they figure that, while
Lord Roberts may reach Pretoria with
IN III days, the garrison can withstand a
siege until November. If Mckinley is
re elected the collapse of the war will
be precipitated; If Bryan Is elected the
Beers, they think, will take fresh cour-
age and hold out as long as possible In
the hope that he will give them active
support With this idea in view, the Boer
commissioners are expected, after am
other visit to Europe. following a two
weeks tour of the west, to return to the
Unietd States in September to resume
their efforts to create sympathy for their
cause.
According to the ENJOYS theories Eu-
rope stands ready to intervene if the
United States will lead the way. They
say they found, while On the continent.
that some of the powers We're opposed
to taking action by the fear that the
United States would throw Its support to
Great Britain. The Beers brief stay in
this country and the reports received
from friends in the west have convinc-
ed the delegates that the United States
would not actively aid the British gov
eminent in case of the Intervention by
Europe. On the other hand, one of the
United States representatives here stat
ed that the British would be undoubted-
ly be allowed to do what they wished in
South Africa.
"It is true that the sympa thy Of the
continent is with the Boers," he said.
''but 1t would be hazardous in the ex-
treme for any nations to act except to-
gether Europe had been carefully
watching the attitude of the United
States in this matter, and while it un-
derstands that the sympathies of this
country are strongly pro-Boer, it knows
that intervention in the Beers behalf
by this country is out of the question"
