The situation in the industrial
world is more serious than most
people are aware of. and the out
look for business conditions for
the remainder of the year are full
of forebodings.
The different railroads of the
country have laid off from work
1900 of their employees, without
any promise of the time when they
may be re.employed. This move
has been rendered necessary by
the largely decreased earnings of
the roads, a falling off in business
which necessitates the adoption of
economies, and of course all re-
trenchmsnts fall first upon the
working people. AS their earnings
have at best been none too large it
is improbable that they have any
surplus laid by for the proverbial
rainy day, which is sure to come
at some time OF other.
Then on the other hand there
are many more than 100000 men
out of employment because of
strikes. All the larger lines of
freight vessels on the lakes are
tied up by reason of a strike of
the masters and pilots, which has
to great degree suspended the
Shipment of coal westward and the
moving of ores and grains east
ward. This strike which is only
by one association affects neverthe
less all the other auxiliary employees
and forces them into idleness-
The big railroad strike in New
York is affecting many thousands
of employees. 1t is computed on q
conservative basis that there are
now approximately two hundred
thousand workers in idleness
some voluntarily as in the case Of
the strikes and some involuntarily
as in the of the reduction of work
ing forces because of dull business
It is probably that the total
weekly wage account of these men
idle now for the reasons stated
will reach the enormous sum of
nearly two and a half millions of
dollars, or ten millions q month of
business money Withdrawn and
looked up. 1t is the situation we
speak of. not the causes bringing
it about But surely the outlook
is not bright with promise nor
overly Notwithstanding

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY


By the fiow OF the inland river,
Whence the fleets of Iron have fed,
Where the blades of the graye-grass quiyel
Asleep are the ranks of the deadA-
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
Under the one, the Blue;
Under the other, the Gray.
These, in the robings of glory,
Those, in the gloom OF defeat,
All, with the battle blood CORY,
In the dusk of Eternity meet
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
Under the laurel, the Blue;
Under the willow, the Gray.
From the silence OF sorrowfuI hours
The desolate mourners go,
Lovingly laden with flowers,
Alike for the friend and the foe
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
Under the roses, the Blue;
Under the lillies, the Gray.
So, with an equal splendor,
The morning sun rays fall,
with a touch impartiaily tender,
On the blossoms blooming for all
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
B-oidered with gold, the Blue;
Meliowed with gold, the Gray.
So, VIII n the summer calleth
On forest and field of grain.
With an equal murmur falleth
The cooling drip of the rain
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
Wet with the rain, the Blue;
Wet with the rain, the Gray.
Sadly. but not with upbraiding,
The generous deed was done;
In the storms of the years that are fading
No Drawer battle wac won
Under the sod and the due,
Waiting the Judgment day
Under the blossoms, the Blue;
Under the garlands the Gray.
No more shall the war-cry sever,
Or the winding rivers be red;
They Danish onr anger forever
When they laurel the graves of our deadt
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
Love and tears for the Blue;
Tears and love for the Gray.

AN ADDITION
OF POTTERY
From Navajo Country Just Made to ColIec
tions Of Historical Society,

The New Mexico Historical Society
has recently obtained very excellent
and valuable collection of eAcavated pot.
terv from the Navajo country, a curio-
sity of about thirty specimens. 1t is
not only of the we'll known types of the
prehistoric pottery of that region but
includes some vessels of rare and curious
shapes and one which contains a rattle
made by leaving hollow in the wall Of
the vessel and putting small stone in
it during the process of manufacture.
This collection is valuable addition to
the archaeological department of the
Society and especially interesting when
compared with the large collection prr-
chased some years ago by private subs
cription from the graves in the vicinity
of Frisco. When these can be properly
exhibited, they will be of much interest
to antiquarians and tourists.

DISPLAY FROM
ESTANCIA VALLEY
At albuquerque Pair is Very Creditable and Z
Good Advertisement for That
Section,

One of the surprising features of the
Territorial Fair at Albuquerque is the
display of garden products from the
Estancia Valley in the new county of
Torrance. Turnips weighing ten pounds
on first year sod during the driest sea-
son in the history of New Mexico is
pretty good even for that favored section
Along some time last March, while
the wind was blowing gale and the
dust from the plains hid the Manzano
mountains behind cloud that seemed
to foreshadow only evil for the pioneer
settlers in that valley, a few of the
women folks who knew and appreciated
the value of a good garden began to
talk about farming to their husbands.
but met with little encouragement. The
ground was dry as bone and getting
drier, with no prospects of rain, ami
the outlook for successful gardening
was anything but promising, but with
the faith that moves mountains they
persisted, until finally one at time
the "men folks" consented to do little
plowing, and that was the beginning of
the Development of what now promis-
es to be one of the garden spots Of the
some-day-to- be sunshine state.
Like many of the other exhibits this
display was unfortunately delayed in
transit and reached Albuquerque after
having been on the road almost q week,
in bad condition, but 1t shows what the
county will produce and that is all that
ii was intended to do. Most of it was
planted late and planted so thick that it
Lad but little room to grow. The sod
when powed was too dry to pulverize,
making cultivation practically impossible
In other words, the products exhibited
are the result of water on this unex.
ceiled soil without the aid of cultivation,
and revelation to all, but to no one
more surprising than to those who pro.
duced it,
In spite of the unfavorable season just
closing and the unfavorabie conditions
in its wake, new settlers ara
going into the Estancia valley and
those who are going now are taking
some money with them! The most OF
them have money enough to build COM
Portable homes and improve the land,
which now promises good returns for
he labor expended in its development.
