following sentence 10 The governor:
"You cannot quote me 100 strongly
as faovring single statehood for New
Mexico. believe We are entitled 10
II and should have II, The territory
has = population Of 100000 people,
half of which Is white"
In the very nature OF things, says
the New Mexican. Governor Otero
said no such thing ami never thought
OF saying II. Everybody and any
body who has the slightest acqnaint'
ance with the governor knows this TO
bo so. What the governor did say was
that there are about 100000 people
in the territory OF whom 10000 were
natives Of Spanish Of Mexican descen
and 10000 had e,: e. come here
from the states or were born here OF
parents who hal Come u this territory
either from the states or Europe. This
Is about correct and Is the cas-. |

THE CLIMATE CURE.

Now that the physicians OF the ma

For instance DR.. J. w. Petit Of OF.
tawa, ILL.,, n of the promoters OF the
Ottawa tent colony, says In the course
of a long article, "The special results
which nave been derived from sup
posedly favorable climates are not
due to atmospheric conditions, but
simply to the fact that patients IRE.

been written by an ignoramus In his
profession or by n interested In
some curing process.
The medical societies of the land
from the National Tube rculosis con-
gress down, agree that while tuber-
culosis can sometimes be cured In its
first stages by an outdoor life and the
proper diet in any climate, yet the
more invigorating and sunny the eli
mate the easier the care. And l. is
the universal testimony that a certain

1t is a fact as capable Of demon
stration as a mathematical formula
that sunshine. elevation and dry an
tiseptic air are enemies to the tubei-
culosis germ. That being the case, 1t
assuredly follows, that the land whicn
can furnish the most sunshine. the
right degree of elevation and dry ex-
h%ilarating. ozone laden air, viii prove
most %efficacious in the treatment OF
the disease.

One result Of The tent colony cam

PASSING OF MEDICINE MAN
Red Men Are Coming to Believe in
the Virtues of the White
Mans Medicine.

The skilled professional doctor IS
one of the greatest helps to the In
dian. and the Navahos are receiving
him with very little distrust, says the
Southern Workman. The savage mis-
appropriation of things that are new
is gradually subSiding, as results make
clear to him that the white mans medi-
cine is more powerful than his. But
there are exceptions. The purely physl-
cal troubles may be eradicated by the
doctor. but there still remains in many
cases a mental uncertainty that de-
mands the attention of the tribal med
icine man, It is not a foible or a
fancy. but a mental disease governed
by countless ages of mysticism which
neeessitates the occult. mind-easlng
treatment of the old days. This, then,
is a mind cure of the Indians the
| Christian Science of the savage, which,
hand in hand with concrete medicine,
exists in all races, whether barbarlc
or cultured. 1t is as necessary to the
Indian as a certain amount of mind
cure is essential to our happiness.
The knowledge of modern curative
agents should be impaired to the
younge members of the tribe They
are capable of assimilatfng new facts
and will take readily to the new school
Civilization is disrupting the tribal or
ganization to such an extent that the
| major portion of the old laws and be
liefs relating to the causes and cure Of
disease will soon be things of the past
With this essential of the old life gone
the work of the medicine men will have
been finished. At present there mus
be a certain cooperation between thu
modern doctor who goes among then
and the medicine man of the tribe.

The Russians May Give Uncle sam
Trouble in Philippines.
Paris. May 23.-Much attention IS
given here by the press to Vice-Ad-
rliraI R~oiestversky's probable passage
into the Pacific north of the island OF
Luzon. and suggestions are made that
the reported intentions of the Russians
to rendezvous at the island OF Babuyan
will give the American authorities IN
the Philippines the same difficulties IN
preserving remote points against the
incursions of Admiral R~oJeStvenSky
that the French authorities experienced
in the waters of Indo-China. The ma
val expert of the Temps lengthlly
points out that the Information
brought by various steamers to chi
nase ports confirms the previous view
that R~ojestvensky is skirting the north
of the Philippines into the Pacific. 1t
is maintained hat the strategic object
thus accomplished is avoiding Japanese
torpedo attacks and the mines IN the
straits of FOrmOSa and h subsequent
concentration of the Japanese heet>1n
the straits of Korea, leaving Ro1est-
vensky free to make a long detour n
reach VlaGlvostok through one of the
northern straits of Japan. However,
il is pointed out that the presence OF
the Russian fleet north of the Philip
pines places the Russians only a few
hundred miles from the Japanese naval
base at Kelung, in the northern part
of the island of Formosa, and that a
| fight is still possible before the detour
commences.
