Something Wrong in China.

The Denver Rocky Mountain News,

of the administration in China, says:

the administration has backbone

to strain every means to right that
wrong and to establish conditions of

1t is a pipe dream that Senator Jones
is dreaming when he imagines that
Andrew Carnegie will go on the stump
for Colonel Bryan. Carnegie may be a
free trader and have peculiar notions
about Imperialism. but he is not a fool
by any means. His immense steel
works have been built and his wealth
has been accumulated under the Re-
publican policy of protection. Under
Democratic administrations his indus
tries had to close down, while under Re-
publican administrations he had more
work than he could turn out, he could
pay his thousands of employees better
wages than they received in the Cleve-
land years. Theoretically he may hold
some Democratic doctrines, but prac-
tically he is a business man who does
not want to see this nation try any Bry-
an experiments.

BERRY F. TAYLOR.
A. Rough Rider Under Major Fred Muller
Died at Washington.

A Washington dispatch says that
Buck Taylor" the king of the cow
boys" sergeant in the Rough Riders
and devoted friend and admirer of
Governor Roosevelt Of New. York, died
of consumption in Providence hospital,
at Washington.
Since he returned from Cuba with the
Rough Riders his health has been poor,
and for many months he has been a
mere shadow of the stalwart athlete,
whose feats of horsemanship We're once
n of the chief attractions of Buffalo
Bills Wild West. He became a clerk in
the census Office, having been appoint
ed by Director Merriam on the recon-
mendation of Gov. Roosevelt and Sen
ator Morgan Of Alabama. His health
had been so poor, however, that he had
not been able to do much work, and
was constantly under physicians care.
He went to Cabin Johns Bridge, a
suburban resort, a few miles from
Washington. He was taken i'll and lay
on the porch Of the hotel, gasping,
when he was recognized. He was at
tended by DR.. J. Preston Miller, who
sent him to the hospital. He sank dur
ing the night and succumbed in the
morning.
Taylor, whose real name was Berry
F. Tatum, was born in Montgomery,
Ala, where his family is prominent.
The Buck" Taylor mentioned in the
dispatch is not the celebrated Buck
who travelled with Buffalo Bill for years
and who was with him during the war
in Cuba, but an actor, once a member
Of the Edna Page company, who was
left at Las Vegas for some reason or
other. when that company showed
there over two years ago. This was the
first ever known of him in New Mexico.
After severing his connection with the
theatrical company he made a living

Vegas and by reading the lines in

the regiment as such until mustered
out. At San Antonio, where the Rough
Riders did their preliminary work, |
contracted a severe cold, and

MEAD ON IRRIGATION,
He Refers to Prehistoric Irrigation Systems
in New Mexico.
(Rockv Maintain NawsA

\lkoSny NCNosJ
The Year Book of the department of
agriculture for 1899 contains an elab-
| crate article on The Rise and Future
of Irrigation in the United States,' by
| Professor Elwood Mead. 1t has been
reprinted in bulletin form by the de-
partment for general circulation. 1t
comprises twenty-five pages and is ac-
companied by several illustrations of
irrigation works. Two contrasting pic
lures which show the banks of a ditch
just completed, and ten years later
with the growth of trees and foliage,
are very suggestive of what water ac-
complishes on the arid plains.
MI. Mead's article is a vigorous and
graphic sketch of the history of irri-
cation in this country from the prim-
tive bitches constructed by the Spani-
ards along the banks of the Rio Grande
300 years ago to the great canals which
now afford water for agriculture in Col
orado, Wyoming, California, Utah and
the other Transmissouri states and
territories. But the Spaniards were not
the original irrigators in this country,
as Mr.. Mead points out. for in Arizona
and New Mexico there are the remnants
of great irrigating canals used by some
prehistoric people, and from them the
Pueblo Indians had undoubtedly learn
ed the practice and were using it when
the system was first introduced there by
the old Spanish missions. The first ir-
rigation by Americans was by the Nor
mons in Utah.
After this historic sketch, Mr.. Mead
passes to a consideration of the practi-
cal problems involved in the irrigation
system of the Transmissouri west,
problems which are scientific, legal,
economic and social in their bearing.
To their consideration he brings a
wealth of practical experience that no
other man in the west possesses, and
his statement of facts as they exist,
and of complications existing and fore
Swallowed, are given with a fairness
and an accuracy that commands ap-
probation. No recent production con-
.tains so much of fact and so many sug-
gestiOns as does this one. It should be
read with care by all seeking informa-
ton on the subject.

that the streams have been fished out
and that game is scarce and wild. Steps
should be taken to restock the streams
by the legislature for the protection of
game. Fish and game should not be
allowed to become scarce in a country
as thinly settled as New Mexico; and
only indiscriminate slaughter can ac-
count for its scarcity at this time.
