AS a result of a meeting between railroad
men, members of the legislative commit
tees of the State Lumbermens association
and the Coal Dealers association with
Senator Fries, held in Omaha yesterday,
the latter will not introduce his bill to
compel railroads to pay demurrage, which
the railroads now collect from the ship
pers. Instead the railroads have promised
to grant relief to every class of shippers
including not only the lumbermen and the
coal dealers, but every other class of ship
pers.
At the annual meeting Of the lumbermen
held in Lincoln during the first few days of
January, and the annual meeting of the
coal men held here about the same time.
each convention appointed a legislative
committee to secure better services from
the railroads. These two committees pre-
pared the bill which they gave to Senator
Fries. with instructions to hold until they
could get conference with the railroad
men. This conference was held yesterday.
with the result as stated. All the demands
embodied in the bill, which were for the
relief of all shippers, were promised by the
railroads The agreement between the par
ties is as follows:

NECESSARY TO KEEP MONROE DScTRIN

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The presidents
message transmitting to the senate the
New San DOMINICAN protocol was read at
an executive session today following the
passage of mass of unobjected pension
bills. Not more than six or seven senators
were present
The leading feature of the message was
that in order to maintain the Monroe doc
trne 1t is necessary for the United States
to see that just claims, contracted by South
and Central American republics and those
of the West Indies should be paid and that
therefore 1t was in the interest of peace
for this government to take over the con-
troll of the revenues in San Domingo. This
subject of the Monroe doctrine is discussed
at some length, especially as regards the
relations of the United States to the repub-
lies of the south.
The protocol was not read at the eXecu-
tive session, but was at once referred to the
committee on foreign relations.
Briefly stated, the protocol or treaty pro-
Vides that the United States shall collect
the customs revenues of San Domingo and
turn over to President Morales government
a specified percentage necessary to meet
the expense of administration and disburse
the remainder among the foreign claimants.
The United States undertakes to respect
the integrity of San Domingo and the pro-
tocol or treaty must be approved by the
United States senate and the Dominican
congress.

& In analyzing the above reports. it Is
interesting to note what the totals really
mean by calculating the expenditure In
volyed. At an average cost per freight
car Of $1,000. the total spent for freight
cars would be $lG5, 455,0O0; at an average
cost per passenger car Of STOW, the total
spent for passenger cars would be ST.
Sohooo and at an average cost per loco
motive OF $4,000. the total spent for loco
motives would be $76,S74,O0O. Adding these
totals shows that the total amount spent
by the railroads In 1905 for motive power
and rolling stock approximates the enor-
nous sum of s26O,1SGOO0.

There are few diseases that
inilict more torture than rheu-
matism and there is probably no
disease for which such varied
and useless lot of remedies have
been suggested. To say that it
can be cured is, therefore, a bold
statement to make, but Cham
berlain's Pain Balm, which enjoys
an extensive sale, has met with
great success in the treatment OF
this disease. One application of
Pain Balm will relieve the pain,
and hundreds of sufferers have
testified to permanent cures by
its use. Why suffer when Pain

MINING, CATTLE AND
The CATTLE INDUSTRY
Col. A. w. Harris interviewed on the
Great Resources of Southern
New Mexico.

Col. A. w. Harris, who recent
ly arrived from Kingston. Sierra
county, on being met this morn
ing by the Citizen representative,
thus diScoursed on the mining
and stock outlook of the southern
portion of the territory.
There seems to be a movement
among eastern investors to
purchase and exploit the long
neglected mining properties of
Socorro, Grant, Luna and Sierra
counties" said Col. Harris.
These districts were formerly
large producers of the precious
metals and but for our territorial.
condition and the general mis-
taken policy of mine operators
would still be operated with
profit. 1t was an error to sup
pose that the production of pay
ing mineral must continue from
the grass roots; that the mines
were played out unless the pay
ore was continuous. Miners were
also discouraged by the deprecia-
tion of silver values, and
consequently the most promising
mineral region of the territory
has been temporarily abandoned.
Recently new interest has
developed and the future is bright
with glowing promise"
Regarding the cattle and goat
interest of our district, continued
Mr.. Herris, it can be safely
affirmed that the abundant rain
fall of the last two months has
assured us of an abundant grass
crop. Every gulch has running
streams showing that the earth
is completely saturated and the
springs reinforced for a two
years supply.
In Sierra county the period of
shearing is over without loss
from cold and inclement weather.
Wool commands a remunerative
price. Stock lambs and wethers
also are in demand at good prices.
Kidding will soon commence and
unless bad weather intervenes
will show large percentage OF
increase.
Large areas of farming land
on the Rio Grande are and will be
/ plowed up ready for cereals, Sc
altogether our section of New
Mexico can be congratulated on
the favorable prospects foreshad-
owed. =" Albuquerque Citizen.

Albuquerque Citizens New Editor
More Reasonable than Some of
His Fellow Townsmen
Have Been.

Doctor Gould, the Albuquer-
Que Citizens new editor, is
evidently endowed with generous
fund of good sense as we'll as of
editorial ability. No outside
town in New Mexico contributes
more hard cash than Socorro
does to the success of Albuquer-
que'S business enterprises, her
fairs, and her various and sundry
other devices for Turing the Ges-
tive dollar from the pockets of
willing public, yet citizens of
SocOrro have often had occasion
To defend their town from hard
knocks administered by a class of
very iniudiciouS representatives
of the Duke City. However, a
little more like the following
editorial from Yesterdays edition
of the Citizen may serve to
change a sentiment and disposi-
tion which have of late threatened
to find practical eXpressionagainst
Albuquerque. The Citizen SAYS:
The satisfaction expressed
the other day by The Citizen
over the report that the national
fraternal sanitarium had been
given to Deming, was not de-
signed to intimate that Deming
is the only suitable place in New
Mexico. The Citizen wants the
location first for this territory,
and secondly for the Rio Grande
valley. Fortunately, both terri
tory and valley are rich in deSir-
able locations. OF these Socorro
is second to none. In fact, they
claim there to be ahead of all
others. This city is especially
interested in Socorro because il
is so near a neighbor, and both
financially and socially the re-
lation of the two towns is very
close"
