are certainly no less vested" no less
sacred, and no less "inalienable"
than the rights of capital.
Following these were denunciations
Of the Republican policies in connec-
ton with the labor troubles etc. As
stated above the platform was practi-
cally silent on the money question. In
regard to Irrigation, of the arid lands
Of the west, the Isthman Canal and
statehood for the territories they made
the following declarations;
We favor the admission of the terri
tories of Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory. We also tavor the immedi-
ate admission Of Arizona and New
Mexico as separate states and territor-
ial government for Alaska and Porto
Rico.
We hold that officials appointed TO
administer the government of any
territory, as we'll as in the district IF
Alaska, should he bona fde residents at
the time Of their appointment, of terri
tory or district in which their duties are
TO be performed.
We congratulate our western citizens
upon the passage of the law known as
the Newlands irrigation act for the
irrigation and reclamation of the arid
lands Of the west-a measure framed
by democrat, passed in the senate by
a non-partisan vote and passed in the
house against the opsosition Of almost
all the republican leaders by a vote,
the majority Of which was democratic.
We call attention to this great dem
ocratic measure, broad and comprehen-
sive as 1t is, working automatically
throughout all the time without fur
ther action of congress, until the re-
clamation Of all the lands in the arid
west capable of reclamation is accom-
plished, reserving the lands reclaimed
for homeseekers in small tracts, and
rigidly guarding against land monopoly
as an evidence of the policy of domes-
tic development contemplated by the
democratic party, should it be placed in
power.
The democracy when entrusted with
power will construct the Panama canal
socedily, honestly and economically,
thereby giving to our people what the
democrats have always contended for
a great inter-oceanc canal, furnishing
shorter and cheaper lines of transpor-
tation and broader and less trammeled
trade relations with the other peoples
of the world.

HERE IS A GOOD CHANCE

Col. j, Franco Chavez, territorial
superintendent of public instruction,
writes as follows:
"A letter eceived from the George
Washington University, of Washington,
D, c., dated July ,, 1901, says:
THE president authorizes me to say
that there is vacant law scholarship
for your state in the University of
Washington, and if you know of a
worthy young man or woman, the
authorities will accept same upon your
recommendation. The local newspapers
will gladly aid you in this selection as
matter of news and general interest to
the public"
CSigned) Faithfully Yours,
|. c. Six, l.. l.. b.
Secretary to the President. "
Believing that you will give this
notice as wide publicity as possible, for
the benefit of those interested in obtain
ing an opportunity, to avail themselves
of the advantages of first class insti-
tuition. | ann respectfully yours, etc.
j. FRANCO CHAVES. "
We take pleasure in bringing this
matter TO notice of the young men
and women of New Mexico, and are very
confident that Superintendent Chavez
will not have to wait long for appli-
cants.

LONG DISTANCE 'PONE
Luna County Company Negotiating
With Arizona People For Con-
nectiOn.


G. B. BOsworth, while in Tucson re.
Gently in connection with a sale of his
mine in Arizona, called on Col. Epes
Randolph, who is at the head of the
company that was recently organized
10 do telephone business in Arizona
and surrounding territory. 1t will be
remembered that Mr.. Randolph was for
several years Superintendent Of the
Tucson Division of the Southern Pacific
Co.. and went to Los Angeles to man
age Mr.. Huntington's electric lines.
He returned 10 Arizona within the past
few months to take charge of the cons
truction Of the new lines which the
Hartman syndicate is building in the
territories and other matters.
The new company, which is called,
Consolidated Telephone, Telegraph e.
Electric Co., has been organized TO ac-
quire and build complete system of
telephone lines throughout Arizona,
New Mexico, Mexico, and western
Texas.
They have taken over all the lines
Of the Sunset Telephone and Telegraph
company in Arizona and will commence
the construction at once Of line from
Tucson to California and throughout
Arizona which is to be built of double
copper wire with the best possible
construction so as to give the very best
service.
They have only just begun opera
tions and had not yet cast their eyes in
this direction; but when Mr.. Bosworth
informed them of our flourishing tele-
phone system, and the situation in gen
eral in this part of the country, and the
advantages of Deming as central
point for southern New Mexico, Mr..
Randolph expressed a willingness to
extend their lines to Deming as soon as
a satisfactory arrangement can 0e
made with the Luna County Telephone
and Improvement company This
would place Deming in direct conne,-
tion with Bisbee, Douglas, Nogales,
Tucson, Phoenix Los Angeles and all
of California, and probably with Silver
City and FL Paso in the not distan,
future.
a meeting of the stockholders of the
Luna County Telephone and Improve
ment company, wa, held last Thursday
evening and Messrs Corbett and Bos-
worth appointed as a committee to con.
fer with Mr. Randolph, and report to
the home company as to what terms an
alliance with this long distance com
pany, could be formed.
1t is Mr. Randolph's policy to make
this home company wherever possible
and nothing better could come to Dem
ing than to interest the men who are
behind this company in the town, and
we are pleased to note that the citizens
and the stockholders of the telephone
company are pulling together in this
matter to bring them here.

some time there was no thought of res
toring order and when it was finally
secured there was long and many sid
ed debate in which the conservatives
gained the day and the Bryan faction
made final and complete surrender
We regret that we have not space to
print the platform in full but this is
impossible, SO we will only touch on
those points which are of greatest in
terest to the people of the west and
particularly of New Mexico. The
usual declarations of party principles
were made and in them such passages
as the following were common:
Constitutional guarantees are violat-
ed whenever any citizen is denied the
right to labor acquire and enjoy pro-
perty, or reside where his interest or
inclination may determine. Any denial
thereof by individuals or organizations
or governments should be summarily
rebuked and punished.
We favor the enactment and admin
istration of laws giving labor and cap
ital impartially their just rights. Cap
ital and labor ought not to be enemies.
Each is necessary to the other. Each
has its rights, but the rights of labor

were known to every man in the con-
yention was received with faint APP
plause. He asked Senator Tillman TO
read the message in reply to Judge
Parker, but there was short delay,
owing to the difficulty experienced by
the senator in deciphering the hand
writing of Mr.. Williams.
He then proposed to read, when Mr.
Williams interrupted him with the re-
mark, "here is a typewriter copy"
"t'or which ! thank almighty God, 1"
retorted the senator He then read the
following message to Judge Parker;
"ALTON B. PARKER,
Esopus, N. Y.
THE platform adopted by this con-
venton is silent on the question of the
monetary standard because it is not re-
garded by us as a possible issue in this
campaign, and only campaign issues
were mentioned in the platform.
Therefore there is nothing in the
views expressed by you in the telegram
just received which would preclude
man entertaining them accepting the
nomination on said platform.
At the close Of Mr.. Williams re-
marks pandemonium broke out and for

A former peddler, now a rich insur.
ance man, stood In a sheltered corner
during a big storm and watched the
umbrellas go to pieces as the wind hit
them full force.
Probably all those umbrellas are
wrecks because of the need of a littls
OIL" he said. That's a trick I learned
as q peddler. An umbrella is primari-
ly a thing of joints, and to keep it In
good condition the joints should be
oiled.
Il found that nearly all umbrellas
break in the joints first. and why
shouldn't they? The joints are never
oiled. and yet r expected to respond
easily to sudden opening.
ITO get the best use out Of an um-
brella the joints should be oiled first
with coal oil or kerosene to clean on
the rust. and then with q lubricating
oil to make them work easily. Thus
treated, an umbrellas framework will
