Big Deposit of Vanadium.

In view of the present wide interest in rare metals in scientific and mining circles it is interesting to note that
 there exists in New Mexico a deposit
 of one of the rarest of metals, known as Vanadinm, says the Albuquerque Morning Journal, metal which when
 refined has a commercial value of 90S to the pound. This deposit of vanadium exists three miles east of Hills boro, Sierra county, lying in the lime belt of that district. The discov. cry was made nun Der of years ago, but it is only recently that it has been developed and the true extent and value of the find made known. Wm. Buschanan of New York, and J. s. Big elow, of Hillsboro, have recently SC. cured large interest in the vanadium m mine and are making arrangements to work the deposit on large scale. The uses of vanadium, although it's discov. cry is mparatively recent, are many. It is used very extensively for edged tools and has been found best alloy for armor plate, is used by dentists in col bring teeth, and from it is made an imitation gold leaf which is said to be equal for nearly all purposes as the genuine. The ore thus far has been found only in small chunks and is rarer than gold. Advertisements of New York and other chemists in the mining journals place its commercial value at 3S drachm, or 90S pound
 In the Hills boror mine, fully one thou. sand pounds of the ore, fifteen per cent pure are in sight. While the mine is yet far from developed, large ship
 ments have recently been made to Philadelphia manufacturers of van
 adium salts, while more than 2,000s

People in this section of Arizona have experienced what they called droughts before, but conditions have never been so serious since the first settlement in this county as at pres- ent. The editor of the Journal Miner visited the Bradshaw mountain sec. ton recently, and found the oak trees dying on account of the continued dry weather. The brush on the mountain sides, which, during this season of the year should be fresh and green in 6 D. pearance, are as brown and parched as after heavy freeze in the middle of winter. In Crazy Basin and around Cordes station even the cactus is with, ering and dying. As to grass, the plains and mountain sides are as de. vcid of it as a we'll travelled road. The outlook is certainly anything but en- couraging. Not only is vegetation suf, fering from the protracted drought, but the water supply all over the conn- try is reported to be failing, and in some places it is beginning to affect mining quite seriously. - Prescott Journal Miner.

Pueblo Indians and Citizenship.

It is not surprising, says the Denver Repu blican, that the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico are much exercised over a recent decision of the supreme court of that territory declaring that their property is subject to taxation. This is equivalent to chasing them as citi zens, but citizenship accom- panied by taxation presents to them no attrac tion.
 An inquiry into the decisions affect ing Indian citizenship will present the situation respecting these Indians in d clear light. Some twenty years ago the supreme court of the United States held in the case of an Indian who had sought to exercise the right to vote, that an Indian born within tribe and subject to it's jurisdiction was not born a citizen of the United States, although native of this country. It took this position because Indian tribes were deemed semi,independent nations, hay ing their own laws and institutions. Hence person born subject to the jurisdiction of a tribe was not born subject to the jurisdiction of the United States in the meaning of that part of the constitution winch declares that all persons born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of this country.
 This decis ion does not, however, ap ply to the Pueblo Indians, who live in villages. These village communitie, were previously held by judicial decis ion not to be tribes in the sense that the Sioux. Cheyenne, Navajo and other such com munities are tribes. The vii lages of the Pueblos not being tribes. native of such village can not be said to have been born outside the jurisdiction of the United States Born subject to the jurisdiction of thi- country, such person is, therefore, d citizen.
 The Pneblos attach no value to cit izenship, because they prefer to live according to their ancient customs. They have absorbed more or less civ ilization in addition to what they pos sessed prior to white occupation of the country; but they have lived to them selves, and they wish to continue to live in that way. Left alone they would remain in practically the con dition they are in now, semi civilized but in many respects barbarians, if no, savages.
 For the good of these Indians, and especially for the sake of their de scendants, civilization should be forced upon them. Que of the most efectual ways to do this is to subject them to taxation and see that they receive at the hands of the public full return for all they may surrender in the form of taxes paid into the treasury.-Al- buquerque Citizen.
