Don't Be A
kn0Cker.

Don't be a knocker. Don't put
ION a long face and 60 around as IL
you had a sour stomach. Get on
"a smile that won't wear off and
when a stranger comes to our great
mining camp, enthuse him. Tell
&im this is the best town on eartbs
It is and you can easily convince
him by your air Of confidence, of
that fact. Never knock-never
roast. Don't get the reputation OF
being a knocker or a kicker, but
look on the bright side of life and
you will soon realize that this is a
pretty good world after all. It's
dead easy if you will but try. Do
1t now. Help yourself along, but
take your friends along with you.
No one ever helped himself up
and prospered by knocking some
one else down. We have a won-
derful camp, in a wonderful state,
in a wonderful country, and there
is room for all. Don't think that
your mines, or prospects are the
only good ones-that all others r
wildcats" No one ever got rich
by knocking the other fellows
property. You can't climb the
ladder of fame by stepping on
other peoples corns. They are
their corns, not yours and they
are tender. Keep off of them.
All men are not alike and if you
don't like the style of the other
fellow, let him alone. Don't knock.
He may have a heavy load to carry
and by being pleasant you will
make his burden lighter and feel
better yourself. Try it. Be a
good fellow, with a kind word for
your struggling brother and you
will soon have a procession of
friends. Better have others like
you, than to get stuck on your
self. Nobody gets stuck on a
knocker. Don't be one. If alb
solutely necessary "butt in,' but
don't be a knocker. Get use to
looking and being pleasant and
you will become healthy, wealthy
and wise.

We learn from albuquerque, that the

funny letters supposed to come from the
seat Of war in Manchuria, has become
sole proprietor.
This lively paper is the only one of its
kind in the southwest, it is non-political
and non-sectarian in its tendencies, has
as rule some very good editorials and
some stories which tend to produce q
hearty laugh and as its name implies is
intended to produce warmth, merit ant
sunshine in the home.

MINING Consress.

Delegates to the American Mining
congress in Fl Paso, November 1913,
will be entertained in the former capi-
tai of Mexico as n part Of the program.
Ciudad Juarez, the Mexican city across
the Rio Grande from FL Paso separated
only from this american city by the
boundary stream and connected with il
by two international bridges and an in
ternational car line, was the capital Of
the sister republic when Benito Juarez,
the patriot president, was in flight from
Maximilan's army, and the building in
which he made his headquarters is still
well preserved; at present it is the post
office. This notable old building will be
the scene of an entertainment during
the congress.
Bull fights in Maxico, excursions into
the copper camps Of Sonora, Mexican
suppers, and other characteristic Mex
lean features will make part of the en-
tertainment of the congress.

The schools Of Deming are at present
in very Aourishing condition. OF the
1892 persons whose names are on the
enumeration list. between three hun
dred sixty and seventy are now in at
tendance daily. The high school room has
in it fifty-fve pupils. All teachers are
working with great earnestness and
vigor. Deming has always been par
ticularly fortunate in that, it has had a
corps of cultivated teachers.
Professors Dickey and Duff do the
high school work; Miss Lillian Grey has
charge of the seventh grade classes and
also teaches certain classes in the
eighth grade. Miss Grey, who came to
US last Christmas, has proved herself to
be woman Of the very highest ability.
Miss Allen is now starting in on her
ninth year here, and so it goes without
saying that abe has the confidence Of
all. Miss Peters, Miss 0smer and Miss
Soule are frst-class workmen, and Mrs.
Smith has been with the organization
since its conception.
IL is earnestly desired by all teachers
that the parents, and all persons inter-
ested in school work and education gen.
orally, visit the school frequently.
Nothing is so good, both for teacher
and pupil, as to have the parents of the
children in their charge drop in coca
sionally and spend an hour observing
work and methods. This will bring
about an understanding between par
ents and teachers which is very much
to be desired. Then it has the effect OF
causing children to make more strenu.
efforts to keep up with their work, anc
to set up for themselves a high stand
ard of conduct.
For use in the teachers meetings this
year. it has been decided to take W

Kansas City Mo-, Monday, Nov. s
1905. Cattle receipts here last week
were II 900 head. including 5000 calves,
a decrease Of $1,000 head from the
week previous. Prices on range killing
steers held steady for the week, cows
gained 10 to 20 cents, stockers and feed
ers advanced the first half of the week,
but lost the gain before TIE end, light
veals were firm. heavy veals lost %
cents. and stock calves closed the week
so to rs cents lower. The run today is
1900 head, and the same trend of the
market is in effect today as last week.
killing steers barely steady, cows firm
and active, stockers and feeders steady.
A good many short feed steers are com
ing now, but buyers are neglecting
them when they can get anything else
TO substitute for them, such as good
Colorado or Southwestern grass steers.
The situation just now is one Of weak
ness in dressed beef steers, and strength
in butcher stuff, stockers and feeders
firm. Quality Of range steers has been
better than usual lately, ranging in
price from $3.15 to $3.7O for bulk, cows
and Gamers $500 to $3.50, with good
heavy cows up TO $3.O5, veals up to
$500, stock calves $3.50 toS3.75.
The range season in sheep and lambs
is about ended, although Colorado,
Utah, New Mexico and Arizona were
represented in the receipts last week.
Colorado had the best of stuff, lambs at
$3.50, yearlings $500, wethers $40,
ewes $5.25, Arizona lambs at 1920,
Utah lambs at $500 and New Mexico
kids at $40, comprise the range offer
ings today.

As Reported.

The returns from last Tuesday were
not, in results, unlike previous off year
elections. There were some unlocked
for changes that may have their inhu-
ence two years hence at the next gen.
eral election.
Tammany gets the worst Of the fight
in New York, Hearst believes he was
honestly elected Mayor, and will carry
his case to the courts. Jerome was
elected city attorney on an independent
ticket in spite Of Tammany's efforts to
defeat him.
Ohio seems to have gone democratic,
and Chicago Is republican by heavy
minority. The Weaver or city party
in Philadelphia won ard smashed the
republican machine. Esw York state
was carried by the republicans, Neb-
raska ditto; and the same way be said
Of Massachusetts, Connecticut and
Rhode Island. The labor union ticket
won in San Francisco and the anti-Mor-
mon or American ticket in Salt Lake.

Sow Wheat.

From present indications sowing
wheat in this valley promises better re-
suits than prospecting for wealth in the
neighboring mountains. Last year If
there had been a half million acres
s)wn to wheat in southwestern New
Mexico there was an abundance Of rain
to have brought the crop to complete
maturity; and the late rains are again
with us, which augurs another wet
winter season that will make grain
growing in the valley success.
