is one OF the authors. 1t is a reso-
luton providing that the state

the legislature the wisdom of the
resolution. In the event the prop

required to do nothing more than
care for the graves of the Confed-
crate dead buried there.
At the instance of the authors,
the resolution. was referred to the
committee on pensions for report,

depends.
The metropolitan daily cannot

Only the local papers can protect
local needs and influence local

glad to have as many people as

there will be enough intelligence
and public spirit on the part of
the local inhabitants to support
earnestly and enthusiastically the
best local newspaper, giving en-
couraging Appreciation and a good

Guard Against Germs
Keep Well by Strengthening the Stom
sch in Summer With Mi-o-na.

In time ofwar the most responsibility
rests upon the guard. If he is lacking
IN vigilance, disaster can easily over
take the army.
With the individual life, the stomach
may well represent the guard" against
sickness, If it is strong and vigilant.
any disease germs that may be swal-
lowed will be neutralized by the diges-
tive juices, or else driven from the
system.
Everyone with weak digestion should
use Ml-o-na at this season and so
strengthen the stomach that disease
germs can have no effect whatever
This remarkable remedy puts the whole
digestive system in so healthy, clean
and sweet state that fermentation of
the food cannot exist, that any disease
germs which may enter the stomach
Will be destroyed, and food will be so
readily assimilated that rapid and
healthy increase in flesh will result.
Nervousness and sleeplessaess come
more often from a weak stomach than
fronLany other cause; headache, back
ache and rheumatic pains are directly
caused by an acid condition OF the
stomach. Mi-o-na corrects all this,
prevents the formation of acids, and
nervousness, kidney trouble, or rheu-
matsm is quickly cured.
Ask G. M Crosby & Co to show you

SETTING HIMSELF RIGHT.

George Washington Thomas, an
able bodied negro of Sleepy Hol-
low, appeared before Magistrate
Nussbaum charged with stealing
chickens. The negro was accom-
panied by his lawyer, Col. Sim
mons, rising young attorney.
The old Judge sauntered into the
dingy court room, where he had
reigned for more than twenty
years, and after-calliEg order,
looked on the little company there
assembled. Seeing George Wash
lngton Thomas, he pointed to him
and said:
"Be you the defendant in this
case?"
Quick as flash George was on
his feet, and not understanding
legal terms, he exclaimed politely
"No, sab; no, sab; l amt de
PENDANT; dar's de PENDANT over
dar, and he pointed to his law
yer. There was a general laugh
about the room, in which the
queer old Judge joined heartily.
The darby felt abashed. He was
visibly embarrassed, and, think
ing to correct the mistake, if mis-
take it were, said again, pointing
at his lawyer: eyes, sab; he's
he's de PENDANT, and pointing
to himself he said: Use de gent
man what stole de chickens. -

Progress in Las Vegas
George ". Ward Tells Santa Fe
Folk What is Being Done in
The Meadow City

George W, Ward, steward of the
New Mexico Insane Hospital, who was
a visitor In the Capital City yesterday,
Is enthusiastic over the outlook for
Las Vegas. In the first place, not In
years have the surrounding ranges
and fields been in rs fine q condition
or, given promise OF such fruitful har.
vest and fat stock. For many miles
around the city lands that have been
sere or fallow for years are green
and productive; corn aud oats and
root crops being in a thri nag c0ndi.
ton without irrigation.
The city Is feeling considerable i'm.
petus as a result Of the establishment
of the maternal Civ near her borders.
Although The sani ariuM management
does not take possession Of the Monte
yuma property til August /, a great
many people have already come 10
the city in consequence of the liberal
advertising that the section has re-
ceived. All the private sanitaria in
the vicinity are full to overlooking
and quite a building boom Is on in
the city itself. At the present time
at least twenty private residences and
business blocks are going up and the
Las Vegas Improvement Company
has had plans drawn and is Just
about ready to let contracts for six
new cottages to rent, none Of which
will have a value less than $4,000.
A new cement block works has be-
gan operation and it is likely that a
large part of the material for the new
residences will be secured from the
cement block factory which is oper.
ated entirely by local capital.
The probability of the construction
of a system of government irrigation
works, which will reclaim from 10000
to Is 600 acres of land, arouses great
expectations in the minds of Las We
gans. Thus far every report has been
favorable. The department has inves.
tigated the quantity of water. the
amount Of land that can be brought
under ditch, the matter of title, the
condition of the local markets. and
has expressed its conviction that
every test win be met fully. Also the
government board of reclamation en-.
gineers has made a favorable report.
it is hoped and believed that actual
construction work will begin next
year.
Mr.. Ward says the Las Vegas end
of the Scenic Highway. is progressing
rapidly and that the borders OF the
Pecos reserve will be reached before
the summer is far gone.
Despite the increased accommoaa'
tons provided at the hospital for the
insane Mr., Ward admits that the in
st!tDtion is again crowded almost &c
its limit and says that additional ac.
c~ommodations must be provided very
soon.-New Mexican.
