MCKINLEY MEMORIAL.

A tablet in memory of the late Pres
ident Mckinley was recently unveiled
In the Metropolitan church at Wash
ington-the church OF which the late
president was member. II was the
gift Of Justice Thomas II. Anderson,
who was a lifelong personal friend OF
the well beloved president. Senator G.
orrator of the occasion, paid glowing
and heartfelt tribute to the memory of
the deceased statesman, soldier and
patriot, closing as follows:
Those who read in a large way the
purposes of an All-Wise Ruler see in
what has transpired a far-reaching and
benehcent providence. The transcend
ent beauties OF noble life have been
accumulated. We have been taught as
never before the nobility of right liv.
ing and the suhlimity Of right dying.
1.-The multitude will come and look
upon yonder tablet and In time II win
crumble away. Monuments will arise
throughout the land and disappear,
Canvas will seek to perpetuate and be
forgotten, but the name of our friend
will live. His enduring tribute will be
found In the hearts of the people SO
long as this great republic endures.
Long after we have lived our brief hour
aud the physical monuments we have
raised have been resolved into the
dust. the pure, patriotic and holy infiu'
ence OF William Mckinley will con-
tinue to be an inspiration and benedic-
ton among men," 4.

NEEDS ONE VOTE.

The territories need but one vote in
the senate committee to enable tn m
to get the omnibus statehood bill re.
ported favorably without changing a
word or line in 1t as it left the house.
That vote could be given to the bill by
either Senator Bard. Burnham. Dill.
lingham. Kean, Nelson or Beveridge.
II would be pleasant. of course, II the
report could be unanimous and favor
able. but even If 1t should turn out to
be adverse a minority report will be
made and the measure has friends
enough on the floor Of the senate to
adopt the minority report.

RANGES VERY DRY.
Cattle In Southern New Mexico Suffer.
inQ-Failure Of Crops Threatened.


The protracted drouth which has
prevailed In this part OF New Mexico
throughout the summer months still
remains unbroken, says a correspond
ent writing from Captain. Otero coun-
ty. As n result cattlemen and farmers
are beginning to suffer perceptibly.
The little grass which was started by
the showers In the early spring has
dried up and IL valueless for grazing
purposes and cattle are beginning to
show the effects Of poor range. The

opening OF the Mescalero Indian reser.
