Peace and not warfare harmony
and not dissension, on the part of
the people of El Paso, are pre-requi
site to any successful plan of irriga-
ton. Such is the emphatically ex
pressed opinion of B. M. Hail. super
vising engineer for the Rio Grande
"ecla nation project, who returned to
El Paso Monday from a trip through
the Territory especially affected by
the proposed Elephant Butte dam.
Preparations should be made. says
Mr.. Hall. not for a conflict between
the upholders of different irrigation
schemes, but for love feast, result
ing in unanimous and enthusiastic
support of the project which was rec
commended in report sent to the
chief engineer of the reclamation SER
vice, following the mass meeting held
at Las Cruces to form an irrigation
organization capable of dealing with
the entire Rio Grande question, SO
far as it affects both the Ell Paso and
MeSilla Park valleys.
That Ell Paso would assume a sui
cidal attitude by opposing the Ele-
phant Butte project is shown, Mr..
Hall said, by the expense which the
construction of a dam adequate in
size to furnish commercial irrigation
would involve upon any other plan.
mo one sided development of the
Rio Grande Valley by irrigation
would be effective, even if it were
possible" said Mr.. Hall. The mu1
question alone is a powerful deter
rent. In any dam mud silt will be
deposited in large quantities. If the
dam were of limited capacity il
would catch all of the mud. and would
be SO badly choked up that the water
would be of little effect Such a dam
would do but little good. II the dam
were designed to supply a limited
section of country, say $4,000 acres
below Ell Paso, it would not have suf-
ficient capacity to accommodate the
silt carried in the flood water. The
dam must be of as large an area as
possible Now, when it comes to
putting in a dam large enough to ac-
count for all silt. and still have suf-
ficient storage capacity, no limited
community could think of bearing the
expense consequent upon suchSan un-
dertaking.
"A dam adequate for the needs Of
the Mesilla and Ell Paso valleys would
cost, including diversion and such
smaller dams as would be necessary
to complete the system, at least seven
million dollars. In order to justify
such an expenditure it would be nee
essary TO reach at least 10000 acres
of land Divided among 10000 acres
the cost per acre would amount to
$40. payable in 20 years by land own
ers If such dam were to supply
only half of that area. the per acre
cost would be doubled. All intelligent
people will Immediately recognize
the assistance that disposing of a
part of the water in the Ell Paso val
ley would give to the farmers of the
Mesilla valley, if the Elephant Butte
dam were built Conversely the bene-
fit to the Ell Paso Valley would be
great if part of the expense of the
dam were borne here.
"On the part of El Paso a united
sentiment in favor of this project is
now essential to securing definite re-
suits. An association similar to that

Not Much Celebration.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 3.-There is
little attempt to celebrate, except in
a perfunctory way, the tenth anniver-
sary of the accession of Emperor Nj
cholas. There were services in all the
churches. Later the troops were pa
raded and the theatres gave free ex-
hibitions, but on account of the war
and anxiety regarding the situation
at Port Arthur everything was on a
small scale.

New York, Nov. 3.-Judge Parker
left for Connecticut this morning, ta-
king a special train at the Grand
Central station. He will deliver
three formal speeches in Connecticut,
and it is expected that several plat
form speeches will be made as the
train is scheduled to make several
intermediary stops. Quite crowd col

was greeted with cheers.
Speaks at Bridgeport.
Bridgeport, Conn. Nov 3.-Judge
Parker arrived here at 11:40. The
Judge was received with an outburst
of applause by the people who throng
ed the platform He was welcomed
in a formal way by General Henry
A. Bishop, candidate for lieutenant
governor on the Democratic ticket
whose guest the Judge was during
his stay in the city. After luncheon
Judge Parker was driven with Gen.
eral Bishop to the Third Regiment
Armory where he delivered an ad-
dress to an audience which taxed the
capacity of the building.
In his address Judge Parker spoke
of the "stand pat' policy of the Re-
publicans and showed that it that
policy were generally adopted it
would put an end to progress. In.
closing he said There is no more
reason why we should resolve not to
revise our national revenue laws
than there would have been at other
periods of history to stop all prog
ress. This is especially true of the
abuses which have become rotted In
our human life 1t is easy enough
for q favorite, who, in this case is
the predominant party with the gov
ernment to resist any suggestion OF
change. But the farmer, laborer, the
man and woman with a fixed income,
the student struggling for an educa-
tion, the poor girl supporting her mo-
theirs family, these are entitled to
inquire whether this policy of using
the law to give favors to few while
the many are left to nurse a sense
of injustice, should become perma-
nently fixed merely because the pow
er of corruption or short sighted
economic policy has brought it to us
as heritage"

100000 WORTH OF ORE.

Preparations for the starting OF the
Midas 4O-ton cyanide mill In the Cliff
ton mining district are steadily going
forward and Manager James Chapman
said today that everything would prob
ably be in readiness for the event about
the Goth inst
For more than a year past all efforts
have been directed towards the deyel-
opment of the mine. The result has
been most gratifying to the officers Of
the company and Manager Chapman be-
lleves ne Is making a conservative esti-
mate when he states that from the
amount Of ore In sight the company will
realize no less than 100000.
During the last run Of The mill. which
was closed down on account OF scar
city OF water something like $4,000 was
cleaned up, the extraction running
about 20 per cent. while the average
value OF the heads was $50 TO the ton.
The water problem. Mr.. Chapman
states, has been solved and he believes
there will be no shutdowns on this ac-
count. The company has developed a
better supply and In addition to this has
arranged to secure reinforcement from
another source,
The Midas mine is located about 25
miles west OF Fish Springs and near
Canyon station, once a familiar point

There is Little Reason to Doubt
Present Settling Price Will
BE Increased soon.
THE BENEFITS or COMPETITION.
United States Smelling Company Will
Be Ready to Receive Ores 10
Ninety Days

Although Manager Whitley Of the lo-
cal plants of the American Smelling
& Refining company announced upon
his return from the east recently that
he had no knowledge OF any contem-
plated rise In the local settling price OF
lead, the indications are that a change
will come very coon and that the pro-
Queer will benefit by II.
with the exception of the firm OF
knight g. Warnock. the big smelling
company has had no competition In the
local field. The former however, does
not attempt 10 bid on anything but the
higher grade lead ores, consequently
the small producer and the producer
who has nothing but low grade ores 70
sell must be satisfied With the b'i Of
fered him by the big American.
The fact that the United states
Smelling company VIII soon be IN the
field In competition with the Murray
plants in the purchase OF THIS class OF
ores makes It almost certain that the
local price will be advanced. The ad-
vent Of the independent copper plants
IN the Salt Lake valley created a bet
ter market for the producers Of copper
ores. Likewise the lead producers viii
oe benefited by the United States COM
pany reaching out for their ores.
At Bingham Junction the United
States company Is pushing work rapid.
~ on It's new lead smelter, II was
said by an official today that the plant
would probably be completed In about
90 DAYS,
