at the Palace.
In speaking Of the growth of Aztec

perity is apparent on every side. The
new Aztec and Pennington Branch
of the Denver & Rio Grande Railway
has already done great amount OF
good for that section. One Of the
largest cattle chutes in the west has
recently been completed at my city

large train loads of sheep have been
shipped
Revenue From Hogs.
AS is true or a great part Of the Ter
ritory a large number of people have
made money this year and as con.
sequence money Is free. Many Of tile
ranch owners have placed hogs on
their places and these animals are
bringing in good revenue. Almost
daily dressed hogs are shipped to diff
ferent places.
After the tenth of this month the
mail will be handled by the railway in
stead of by the stage as at present.
This will tend still furthe: TO let us
get in quicker touch with the rest OF
the country. We think that without
doubt the Denver & Rio Grande will
make further extensions and 1t also
seems probable that the Arizona & Co.
dorado will be built.
Dr.. Ballou Talks.
DR.. Ballou is from Crumpler. North
Carolina, and reached AZTEC the first
of November He was a practising
physician for four years in that state
and has just been to Albuquerque
where the Territorial Medical Board
has granted him license to practice
In the Territory.
Speaking of New Mexico he said;
my uncle w. H. Ballou, a resident
Of San Juan County, continued to
write of the advantages here and his
accounts were so glowing decided to
come. Since my arrival ! have been
more than pleased with the country
and the people and in addition to my
practice I expect to make investments
in either land, sheep or mines.
my uncle has investments paying
thirty per cent and l think there are
others equally as good there"

serve. for an instance. to excuse the afro
cious resort of the tenement dweller whose
annoyancs and remedy are described In this
paragraph from a New York paper:
Several children who have been making
more or less noise as they slid down the
balustrade in the tenement at l6S East
104th street have annoyed some one in the
house, who took cruel means to check the
noise. Early last evening eight-year-old
Jimmy Weinberg swung himself upon the
slippery rail from the hallway of the second
floor. He landed with a scream of pain and
toppled over on the floor. Some one had
driven a spike into the balustrade four feet
from the end. The lad was so badly In
jured that they said at the Harlem Hos
pital. where he was taken, that he might
not recover"
of fiendish offense. the enormity Of which
Is not lessened in the slightest by the degree
of the nuisance. There were safe and hu-
name ways Of preventing the harmless
though annoying practice of these children.
But this spirit Is often to be found. Some
times 1t takes the form of a gunshot to
brighten off young prankers, occasionally
with fatal results. as a few months ago in
New Jersey. Sometimes brutal men will
chase irritating small boys into the water,
where they are drowned. And again they
will have the obnoxious children arrested
and flung into prison to await trial, and
perhaps sent to reformatories upon convic-
ton. In either place to learn some of the
ways Of the criminals and in any event to
infect their young souls with the faint of
the gaol.
Adult heartlessness is infinitely worse
than juvenile heedlessness.

Adult Brutality.

There are some people who are chroni-
cally In state OF annoyance as a result
OF the plays and pranks of children. Some
how or other they seem to forget that they
were Just as annoying themselves when
they were young. They roar al the young
sters. threaten them with dire punishments,
chase them. even at times chastise them
to their sorrow later II the case Is heard
in court. They want the boys to stop bail
playing and the girls to cease their romp-
ing They want every form OF juvenile
exuberance checked. They cannot appre-
ciate the absolute necessity OF youth for a
means OF expression and expansion and ex-
ercise.
or course there are cases where children
are obnoxious in their play. They do need
checking. II they were not held In by tight
reins of discipline they would overrun all
bounds and become intolerable nuisances.
Indeed, the life OF the average younKster
consists In a series OF expedients to circum-
vent the RESTRAINING hand of those in author
ity. And II is a perfectly natural develop
ment OF the child's temperament to be es-
pecially delighted with an opportunity to
make life miserable for the man or woman
who has filed the most complaints.
But whatever means are adopted to re-
dress the grievances of the elders. there
are limits imposed by humanity and COM
mon sense and law which should never be
overstepped. There Is never case of ju-
venile nuisance serious enough to warrant
the employment of cruel means of abate-
ment. No form Of reasoning could evsr

Addicks.

If Mr.. Addcks is correctly quoted in the
interview which appears in print today he
has demonstrated more fully than ever be-
fore his entire unfitness. not only for the Of

office. His brazen assertion of having
bought and paid for the support of Mr..
Alice. and of having made him by such
means a filler in the Senate. quite caps
the climax of even his own shameless eff
frontery. And after such "a deliverance he
still aspires to represent Delaware In the

ference affixed their signatures to that
historic document. Thus were concluded
so far as lay within the power of any

of Japan, the negotiations that have so
tremendously augmented and extended
the reputation of the President of the
United States. without Mr.. Roosevelt the

at Portsmouth would not have been en-
acted. Another might have called the
conference. Another might have given
voice to the worlds hopes when the Is

Signs of a Coal Strike.

Many signs are at hand to indicate that
the lines are forming for another anthra-
cite coal contest in the spring The agree
ment which resulted from the arbitration
secured by President Roosevelt Will expire
on the first of April next, and meanwhile
the union miners are busily engaged In
working up sentiment In favor of the pre-
sentatior of new demands upon the coal
magnates. These demands, it is understood.
center chiefly upon the question of the rec
ognition of the union and the grant of an
eight-hour day. There will, of course, be
demands for higher pay scales and other
details of the workers condition. but the
principal factors in the controversy now
approaching a definite form are those re-
lating to the unions status and the length
of the working day
1t has been proposed that the union be
recognized by the writing of a formal
agreement between the coal mine owners
and the unions themselves binding both sides
to the performance of specific acts. In oppo-
sition to this proposition 1t has always been
urged by the capitalists that the union. not
being Incorporated or financially response
BILE, could not be regarded as proper rep
resentative of the workers. 1t remains to
be seen whether the union leaders will con-
sent TO meet this objection by Incorporate
Ing and Offering to give bonds for the faith
full performance of contract.
1t is emphatically to be hoped that there
will be no hard-coal strike next summer
Such strike. If begun. would certainly be
stubbornly fought by the coal operators and
probably as stubbornly prosecuted by the
union miners. The latter have been pre-
pairing for such a contingency for the past
two years and a half and have accumu-
lated large strike fund. On the other
hand. the operators have been storing coal
at various points. against a cessation OF
mining next spring. Thus both sides are
girding up for the battle, and IT will call
for wise leadership and a broad spirit of
compromise and adjustment to prevent
strike. The public's only resort in such
case is to anticipate the possibility and lay
In coal in large quantities now. 1t Will
eventually pay the bill for the strike. when
ever II may come. and 1t might as we'll
take advantage of such rates as the mar
ket now affords.
