Gage Against oIeo Bill.


Washington, jan 14.-Secretary
Gage was before the senate commit
tee on agriculture today to answer in
quiries concerning the oleomargine
bill. He said the bill as a revenue
producer was useless and not needed.
If it was not for the revenue the bill
is misnomer and Objectionable on that
ground. He said the revenue under
the present law was well collected,
-altho there were some losses.
Gage spoke on the Wadsworth bill
in the house as offering an almost ef-
fective method of stopping the sale of
oleomargarine fraudulently. He said
the evasion under the present law is
much easier than it would be if the
package were stamped with the word
.oleomargarine."

Editor Citizen.
Your paper last evening contained
the following item:
WIN. Ruby is preparing to fire q
kiln of brick south OF the city that
contains 300, 900 Of hand made brick"
And after reading 1t the thought &C.
Cured to me that such enterprises
receive but little announcement In
Albuquerque. when we are building all
Of our sidewalks Of cement and lum-
Der, both imported materials. There
are several brick manufacturing
plants within a mile or so Of the city
and every dollar expended In making
these brick is expended among our
business men in the city. while II our
walks are made Of cement every dol
lar expended therefor goes east
abroad never to return. II we expect
to make a city Of albuquerque we
must encourage home Industries. II
We send abroad for everything we
will Dol %pauperize ourselves.
Now, We are importing nearly ev-
e%rything. We export raw wool and
poor cattle and import manufactured
wool and fat dressed cattle. In all
such transactions are we not getting
decidedly the worst of the bargain?
All our blankets and coarser wooden
goods should be manufactured here
and we should raise alfalfa and fat
ten our cattle at home, sufficient for
our home market.
1t may be asserted that wool can be
manufactured into blankets, etc, and
cattle fattened cheaper in the east
than here, but when the high freights
are paid both ways 1t is not true.
There Is, however, no excuse for i'm.
porting articles to build our walks
when we have the finest materials
for that purpose within our city lin.
its. Is 1t any surprise u city is
drained of money when we pursue
such r ruinous policy?
Let us encourage every manufacture.
ing establishment, however small II
may be, bearing In mind that by such
a course only a we expect to build
up a prosperous city.
