A SERIOUS ATTACK.
he New Mexican says:

1T NtW MGAlCuu cdsGs
Santa Fe is a dream OF beauty, a
symphony OF delicate tints these
spring days. Color uns riot up and
down the sinuous valley Of the river
that Is the life of the city. From the
turquoise vault above, to the green
lawns beneath the feet, a picture be-
yond compare spreads before the eye,
The bloom of the cherry Is only less
white than the snow clad peaks of the
range at the feet Of which they bloom.
The apricot trees vie with the glow
Of the morning and the peach trees
with that of the evening. The tender
green Of the apple trees from which
peep pink buds Of promise are a feast
for those who love soft contrasts In
color and the song of the birds In the
orchards is balm to the soul that Is
longing for the beauties that are not
of this world. The man who remains
unmovcd by the glory of this ancient
city and whose thoughts do no turn
to poetry as he wanders through It's
streets and its quiet lanes on a fore
noon like that Of last Sunday while
the church bells are ringing has lost
youth and the hope of eternity; there
is no poetry in his soul and he Is
dead to his better self.

II Is only by consulting the records
OF the Carnegie public library and by
a%scertainIng therefrom the statistics,
that the great Importance OF this In
stitutiOn can be known.
Last month 1,32s books were given
out TO be read and returned. This
makes owe forty-four volumes during
each day Of the month. passing out
over the library counter into the
homes OF Las Vegas to be read and to
exert upon the lives of our people a
lasting and wholesome influence.
Since the opening of the library
3.lG4 books have gone out TO be read
and impressed upon the minds and
lives Of our people.
Since the opening, 3,761 people have
visited the library and have either TAX.
en- books or have devoted time in read
ing at the library rooms.
Who can estimate the uplifting in
fluence resulting from these visits to
. library containing the best thoughts
OF the ablest men of the age in which
we live?
Upon the library tables are found all
the current literature Of the day In
newspapers and periodicals, a most at
tractive, well lighted and well equip
ped reading room, where perfect qui'
ct and good order prevail.
! The silent but forceful influences
radiating from such an institution, will
aid the churches and schools in max
irg Las Vegas a city attractive to the
best elements Of society, seeking
homes in the southwest, and will draw
to us people whose presence and influ
ence are valuable in the highest de
gree.
Let us build upon the solid founda
lions of morality, intelligence and cnl
tnre and in due tire We shall reap tn
reward of intelligent effort.
Churches, schools, libraries, go hant
in hand, supplementing the newspape
and the periodicals, in disseminating
wholesome information for the better
ment and elevation of mankind.
We are now In the first stages o
constructive development, building TO
the future, and a public library whicI
shall stand out prominently, anon
those of the southwest, will mark La
Vegas, as a city Of progress and Gu
ture, attractive to those seeking ne'
and favorable resting places.

CHANGE OF

Many of the northern New Mexico
stockmen have about decided to sell
their cattle and go into the business of
raising steers. The decision results
from the misfortune of the past four
or five years. Drouth, or winter cold,
or fall floods have denuded the ranges
and many cattle have died. Prices
have been low Now that prices have
risen and there promises to be a ready
demand for cattle, an uncommonly dis
astrous spring has killed about all
the calves and has decimated the old
II is argued that calves may be
bought in Texas and other southern
states al comparatively low prices,
that there will be snre and swift profit

There ought to be something doing
in Washington on the reservoir propo-

secretary of the territory a copy of
his report for the year 1903-1904 and
the Legislative Manual for 1905. The
work is an admirable statistical sym

ganization and the information it con

When you come to think of it, the
agencies, the great associated
press not expected, have worked the
Nan Patterson trial for several times
what it is worth. Why should the
death of a gambler, either by the hand
Of a woman Of none too savory repu.
tation, or by suicide, have commanded
some hundreds of thousands of news,
paper columns. Surely there was bet,
ter news than this that the enterpris
ing press bureau reporters could have
secured.

H. D. HINE BUYS A BERKSHIRE.

Henry D. Hine and George Soule have bought Berkshire automobiles and will have them early in June. MT Hine has given the automobile ques- tion a careful study for six months, and selects this machine as the best. He has bought a Model B Berkshire, a light touring car, detachable tOnneau, with side entrance. It has an engine, 30 horse power, cylinders vertical. The carburetor has a float feed. The Berk- shire has constant mesh transmits sion that cannot strip it's gears, has no bolts, pins or nuts in the case to get loose and cause damage, which absO- lutely and instantly engages or disen- may be engaged or disengaged slowly started slowly on any speed, and after ward firmly locked. A speed of 40 miles per hour is obtained in high gear, and eight miles per hour in low est gear. The transmission has three speeds forward and one reverse, and is constantly submerged in oil, reducing the wear to minimum. It can be dis sembled or re-assenbled in few min- utes, a fact which automobilistS will appreciate. With this transmission, the car handles like steam outfit, Tho sudden lurCl when power IS applied. The speed of the car can be instantly changed by the use of one lever, while engine is at top speed. A special de- sign of channel steel frame is used. The springs are an important factor, being carefully adapted to the proper support of the varying parts of the car, giving greatest comfort in riding. The bodies are made of the best wood obtaina ble, and will not crack. The body can be detached from the frame by removing four bolts. The uphol- stery is the best black leather and hair with full spring cushions in both front and back. The machine has a speed of 40 miles in high and eight miles in low gear. A greater speed can be obtained by accelerating the engine. The car is so constructed that all parts may be easily inspected and repaired. The engine is wholly ex- posed by removing the hood. The transmission being directly under the foot board is also exposed by lifting the foot board and removing the upper portion of the case. Reclining on the ground to do work is positively done away with.

struck the young attendant Finally.
