Rio crande & Southwestern.

The Rocky Mountain News speaks
as follows of the proposed Rio Grande
& Southwestern railroad:
"The road is being constructed
chiefly for the purpose of entering a
virgin timber region country The Dem
yer & Rio Grande railroad and the
New Mexican Lumber company are
the hackers. For the last twelve years
or more the New Mexican Lumber
company, with headquarters in Den
yer. has been operating on the Tier
ra Amarillo land grant, and the tim
Der on this grant has been culled SO
closely that a new field Of operations
becomes necessary. In order to get in
to this new country, it is necessary to
pass through the Jicarilla Indian res
ervation. The project is launched
mainly In the interest of the lumber
company, it is said, but should the
country traversed eventually prove as
rich in coal and minerals as is now
anticipated the advent of the railroad
will be the mean Of developing it.
At present it is the intention OF the
company to utilize the road entirely
for hauling freight.

TENDENCY OF THE TIMES.


The tendency of medical science
is toward preventive measures. The
bets thought of the world is being
given to the subject. 1t is easier and
better to prevent than to cure. 1t
has been fully demonstrated that pneu-
monia, one of the most dangerous dis
eases that medical men have to con
tend with, can be prevented by the
use Of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from q cold
or from an attack of Influenza grip),
and it has been observed that this
remedy c~ounteracts any tendency OF
these diseases toward pneumonia.
This has been fully proven in many
thousands of cases in which this ren
edy has been used during the great
prevalence Of colds and grip Ill recent
years, and q be relied upon with
implicit confidence. Pneumonia often
results from q slight cold when no
danger is apprehended until 1t is sud
denly discovered that there Is fever
and difficulty in breathing and pains
In the chest, then 1t is announced that
the patient has pneumonia. Be on the
safe side and take Chamberlatn's
Cough Remedy. It always cures. Fer

was summoned but the body was al
ready cold. On his temple there was
a dark hole, which apparently had
been made by a blow from a blunt
instrument which had caused the
death of the man. There is no doubt
but that he was murdered and the
body placed on the track that death
might seem accidental. The coroner's
jury passed the verdict that he was
killed at the hands of parties un-
known. Constable McGrath will try to
bring the murderers to justice, but
as Romero had been at Lordsburg
only a few days and was unknown, it
will be hard to apprehend the per-
p~etrators Of the foul deed.

Inquiry into the birth rate from
marriages of Yale graduates reveals
the same state of affairs that Presi-
dent Eliot's report exhibited in re-
lation to Harvard. The Yaleinquiry adds
to the interest by showing that the
average Yale graduate who married in
the first quarter of the century had
about twice as many children as the
average graduate in the last quarter.
This tends to prove that rs years g
the so-called highly educated class pro-
duced itself twice, while now it even
fails to make good it's own numbers.
An interesting line Of inquiry might
be started from this point to show
the influence upon families of the
States 100 years ago. In the earlier
time, this country was SO sparsely
settled that labor was very scarce
and the economic demand for men and
women with strong bodies was very
great. Subduing the wilderness was
hard work, and, in the absence Of
much immigration, the average Amer
lean farmer was best OF who had the
most boys to help him in his farm
ing or pioneering. Thus there was an
economic demand for children which
every mar and woman personally ap-
preciated. With the passing Of the from
tier toward the setting sur, and the
great immigration of cheap labor dur
ing the 10Th century, these economic
conditions, as they affected the So
called native population, passed away

Important Water Decision.

From the Citizen.
An important decision was render
ed by the United States supreme
court Monday by which the supreme
court of New Mexico was sustained in
the case of Thomas c. Gutierres ct
al, appellants. vs.. The Albuquerque
Land and Irrigation company, au-
thorizing the latter company t con-
struct a canal and pipe line in Bernil-
lilo county. The decision sustains the
territorial statutes under which I'M
appropriated waters may be acquired
for beneficial use by private individ-
uals or corporations, and overrules
contention that such waters are the
property of the United States and not
of the Territory.
Congress, the decision states, rec
ognized by the act of July rs, 1886, as
far as the United States was concern
ed, the validity of coal customs, laws
and decisions in respect to appropria-
ton of water. Congress also, by it's
act Of March 8, 1891, recognized leg
~islation of the territories as well as
the states with respect to the regula-
ton of use of public waters.
The decision holds that the stat
utes of New Mexico under which the
appellee sought the right to control
it's canal and pipe line, is not consist
ent with federal legislation on the
subject of the Disposal of waters flow
ing over public domain; also that the
trial court was warranted in treating
as immaterial the contention of the
appellants that by virtue of the treaty
of cession Of New Mexico to the Unit
ed States they acquired riparian
rights to the use of all waters of the
Rio Grande river ajacent to their
lands. ..nAx

LICENSING ~osrEoPATHs.

1.-THE legislature ought to enact in

censing osteopaths to practice the
science of ~osteopathy, or the drugless
system Of treatment, says the New
Mexican.
No men or set of men should con-
troll the n of Development

mutton Of suffering. This Territory
certainly cannot afford to be behind
the states in such matters. Where
Kentucky, Louisiana, Colorado, Iowa,
Ohio, and q great many other states
In the union have led. in recognizing
osteopathy. New Mexico can afford to
follow.
There are q great many people who
believe that drugs and the knife have
their proper place in the treatment OF
many ailments, and who firmly believe
that the restoration of wasted limbs,
improper circulation of the blood,
wrought up nerves, misplaced or crook
ed bones, can be and daily are. per-
formed by osteopaths in the great
cities Of the United States, and thous-
ands of suffering people are rescued
from a life OF inactivity and suffering,
or from suicide because of nervous
prostration. and sent rejoicing to a
useful and happy existence. Such
cures Of chronic cases are common,
and they say that nothing succeeds
like success"
So a y the New Mexican, and the
Albuquerque Citizen; let us make it
unanimous, SO say we all.
There should be as much liberty IN
the medical as in the other professions,
The alopaths and homeopathic know
much, but they do o know it all.
II New Mexico has intelligence
enough for statehood, her citizenship
knows enough to select its own system
Of medical treatment.
New men and new systems are daily
coming to the front. Let them come
To exclude men from practicing the
professions for fear of competitors Ii

II an osteopathist can relieve sui
fering and cure disease give him q
chance and set him to work,
Give all the doctors q chance and
give the people q chance to select
whom they perfer.
