Circus Day. Column.

The circus came into the town

From the time 1t begun
Till at night when the tents were all down,
Forepaugh-Sells Bros. show in
town lately was an lS.elephsnt show.
Everybody sizes up a circus by the
number Of elephants. The show
came in on three trains from Beloit
and early that morning crowd
watched the unloading. The tents
were pitched on the old fair grounds
and the crowds that thronged the
grounds showed how anxious the peo.
pie were tc see circus.
Charlie Parker had big days bus.
mess with his merry-go-round and a
street piano. Then there were many
cane.stands, lemonade stands etc.
G. c. Sterl won the hearts OF the PEG.
pie by putting out barrel Of ice
water in front Of his store. Every.
body patronized it.
The press agent Of the show is Bert
Davis, one Of the best known news
paper men in the country. He made
things pleasant for the paper men.
All shows have manager Of this de-
partment but Mr.. Davis is one Of the
most accommodating ever in the city.
The parade was beauty. 1t had
four bands and was SO long that it
got tangled up in a knot and went
double file over part Of the course.
A we'll dressed and large crowd came
in to attend the show-one Of the
largest in a decade.
Even the elephants have q nice
McKinley-prosperity look.
The circus crowd came to town in
buggies and Surveys. In the good old
Democratic times they came in
springless lumber wagons.
Funnier than anything the circus
clown could say is the prediction that
Bryan will be elected.
The circuses know where prosper d

Archbishop chapelle In the PHILIPPINES.

Archbishop Chappelle, who is in the
Philippines to investigate the condition
of the Roman Catholic church and it's
relation to the rebellion in those is
lands, reports that leniency Is wasted
upon the islanders. They must be gov
erned with a strong hand. Leniency at
this stage Of affairs would be inter-
preted as weakness, and would make
the rebels insolent and intolerable. 1t
would make the restoration of peace in
the islands much more difficult If the
American authorities were to
to temporize with the Tagals. Uncondi-
tional surrender alone should be the
terms for peace. After the United
States has restored order, and without
r~elinquishing it's iron grasp on the is
lands, it can establish a government as
free and Independent as the circum-
stances and the temper of the natives
will allow. This impartial position of
Archbishop Chappelle is identical with
the policy of the Republican admins
tration in dealing with the Philippines,
and is strongly opposed to the plan out
lined by Colonel Bryan and other Dem
ocratic leaders.

The Democratic leaders have given
up hope of electing their national tick
ct, but they will concentrate all their
energy and campaign funds or a score
of congressional districts which are
doubtful, and thus hope to get control
of the mex house of representatives. A
Democratic house would be of no bene-
fit to the Democrats as far as legisla-
ton Of their own is concerned, but it
would seriously embarrass the admin
istration. 1t would tie up congress and
prevent legislation when action on new
questions is extremely important. 1t
would put off statehood for New Mexi-
co another two years. The president
will have work and cares enough with
out a divided congress to contend with.
1t is not likely that the house will be
lost to the Republicans, but it will take
harder work to maintain a majority in
congress than it will to elect Mckinley
and Roosevelt.

ANOTHER TESTIMONIAL.

albuquerque Journal-D emocrat.)
A distinguished Boston physician has
recently promulgated the theory that
human beings need a little san In their
digestive business, just as chickens
need gravel. That's why we are all so
healthy out here. Who ever heard Of a
citizen of New Mexico having dyspep-
STA? You can't get it. You may see
symptoms of it in the newcomer. but in
the old-timer eve We have COM
monty attributed this immunity to the
altitude, but the new philosophy pro-
mulgated by this Boston doctor shows
that the altitude has nothing to do with
it, and that the whole credit belongs
to the sand storm, which compounds
and combines the essential silica with
the exilir of the atmosphere in such a
scientific name thai even those who
are most careless of their health are
obliged to take it-and that's why the
people of New Mexico have such appe-
tites hat they can't raise enough to
feed themselves, but have to import a
large part of their provisions from
Kansas and Missouri, and other dys-
peptic localities. The fact that sand
is a valuable ally Of the human animal
in his struggle against the world and
the flesh and the other party, has long
been recognized in a figurative sense,
and now it has demonstrated its right
to be also taken literally. Great Is the
sane storm of New Mexico. Great Is the
wise doctor of Boston.

A pottery company will establish a
factory at Golden, Colo, for the manu-
facture of porcelain ware, white ware,
stone ware, flower pots, and even imita-
ton Indian pottery. The capitalists in
terested are confident that they can
manufacture cheaper in Colorado for
the western market than can the pot
teries in Ohio and New Jersey. This is
a hint to some enterprising men in New
Mexico, where the finest potters' clays
and other material for the manufacture
of porcelain are abundant.

Conditions for Growth.

Climate alone will not build a town.
Some of the largest cities in the world
have the nastiest weather imaginable
the veal around. Natural resources
will not create cities, for Chicago and
Berlin were built upon sandy deserts,
with no mines, no scenic beauty, no
natural attractions around them, while
ome of the most beautiful spots in the
world do not give sustenance to half a
dozen people. Push and energy, the de-
velopment of natural resources and the
encouragement Of manufactures and
trade bring population, wealth and
prosperity to cities. The people of New
Mexico towns should take this to heart.
They must be up and doing if they
want real estate in their towns to in
in value, If they want to get
trade and employment, If they want to
see their towns grow. Santa Fe, for in
climate in the United States, and yet
with climate alone it would not be more
than a small pueblo. Within a radius
of 100 miles there Is mineral wealth
that if 1t were developed would be suf-
f1cient to buy out the whole of New
Mexico and Colorado put together. At
Santa Fe, wherever water touches the
soil, fruit trees can be made to grow
that put California orchards to shame.
Health-giving springs are within a
days drive of the city, and the scenery
round about is magnificent. Yet, Santa
Fe, although 1t Is older than any other
town in the United States, on census
day cannot muster 10, 900 inhabitants.
This could be changed in very short
time. A few ~c-spirited citizens,
making use of the enormous resources,
the magnificent natural advantages.
could make Santa Fe the metropolis Of
the southwest. The work needs only to |
be started; a live board Of trade would
need only to get down to earnest work,
Ind Santa Fe, instead of standing still, |
would soon outstrip all other towns and
cities in the southwest. The resources
ire here, the potential energy exists, |
md all that Is needed Is harmony, CO.

lie Of the capital. !

A COUNTY POOR FARM.
/Ctl,,a, C;tu Tndonondont

. 49,
1t is nothing derogatory to Grant
county to say that a poor house is one
of the most needed of local institutions,
and we warrant that the same condi-
tons exist in every other county In the
territory. While not many, there are
always a few INDECENT persons, who,
when old age or sickness overtakes
them, have been unsuccessful in their
efforts to make provision for them
selves, and become charges upon the
county. 1t then becomes necessary to
make certain monthly allowances or
else provide for them by admission to
the local hospitals, which are very linn
tied in facilities. How much better 1t
would be to have a poor farm, say along
the ella or Mimbres rivers, where the
inmates could make the institution
practically self-supporting by light out
of door work, which would be extreme
ly beneficial to themselves as we'll? An
other reason. There are now, as at al
most all the time, inmates of the
ty Jail, committed because Of slight
trouble, which are not sufficient
ly severe to warrant their ncarceret ton
In the Las Vegas asylum, and yet rem
der the unfortunates incapable Of earn
ing their own ~livelihoods or caring for
themselves. These, too, could find a
pleasant home in a county poor house.

1t isn't China that bothers the powers
so much as it is the intentions of Rus
STA toward China. The belief grows
daily that Russia is at the bottom of
the trouble in the Celestial kingdom,
and that Russia's ambition is to absorb
China. After it has accomplished that
gigantic task it will be ready to take
Constantinople, and then. with a vast
empire solidly knit together, and every
part contiguous, an army of 100, 000, 900
men and boundless it can
tackle Great Britain, take India from
it, and after that absorb the rest Of the
world. 1t is a splendid dream of m
pire. such as Alexander the Great had,
but it's possibility and probability are
very remote.
