The following splotches were taken
from the Office Towel, a publication
purporting to remove excessive ac-
emulation from the public pores. The
editor of The Towel is a spare rib
from the backbone of journalism,
having been one of the great army
of workers that form the aforesaid
vertebrate; i. e.. a reporter. Now he
edits the rag all by himself with the
assistance of the public, n he de-
clares he raised himself to his pres
emit distinction by following closely
the rhetorical rules laid down in
this his own home made and hand
spiked glossary:
The young reporter should always
remembered that waves run noun
tains high.
That industry increases by leaps
and bounds.
That two DRINKS and a d%isorderly
conduct constitute a carnival of
of crime.
That a burned barn fails a victim
to the devouring element.
That a politician always views ev-
cry act of the opposition with alarm.
That he points to the proceedings
of his own party with pride.
That every ~utterances of a preach
er is a note of warning.
That a boat transporting lady pas
sengers is loaded with precious
freight.
That a ball always lasts until the
wee sma' hours.
That a hayseed poet is always
equipped with a quaint smile
That an off-hand speaker always
delivers a few well chosen remarks.
That a society dame with a book
to publish always receives many fiat
tering offers.
And that every citizen who is not
in Jail is either representative or
popular or both.
In the eating line the young report
er has a wide range of explosives. At
a social function anything that is cal
culated to take the place of grub is
always designated by one of these:
A bountiful repast, toothsome refresh
ments, a delicious collation., a choice
supper delectable viands, a dainty
lunch, a p~retentious spread.-and
these are always p%artaken of at the
festal board.

RICHES OF THE DESERT.

From the National Magazine.
We need to be reminded, perhaps,
that the famous cities of the antique
world were for the most part found
ed upon the practice of irrigation and
nursed in the desert. The old world
was scientific enough to prefer its
Asia Minor and Syria. the and of
the Cartnaginians and the Moors, of
pie fact seems to be that the soluble
plant foods-potash, lime. m~agnesia,
sulphuric acid, and SO on-are in
countries of abundant rainfall, mainly
washed away and wasted; while in
arid countries these elements accu-
mulate in the soil an inexhaustible
bank account to be drawn on, with
out possibility of ''protest"-through
irrigation ditcnes. There is expert
testimony to the effect that "the
soils that lie west of the hundredth
meridian in the United States, as
compared with those that lie east of
the Mississippi, contain on the aver
age about three times as much pot
ash, six times as mucn magnesia, n
fourteen times as much lime"
So the new cities of the Great
American Desert" are going to have
solid elemental underpinning.

ly to visit America and the Exposition
we may infer from a presumably in

KAISER MAY COME.
He and King Edward VII Likely to
Meet at the jamestown Exposition.

He and King Edward VII Likely to
Meet at the jamestown Exposition.
Norfolk, Va, June 19.-The London
Daily Telegram urges King Edward
to pay a visit to America next year.
The Kings itinerary would include
a visit to President Roosevelt at
Washington, a s~ojourn in Norfolk, Va,
to witness the jamestown EXPOSE
ton which in 1907 is to commemorz
ate the settlement of America by En-
glish speaking people. If King Edward
decides to throw precedent to the
winds n again visit America-he
was here as Prince of Wales-he will
also visit New York and Canada.
1t is well known that the relations
between the English King and Queen
and the London Daily Telegram are
most cordial. When he was Prince of
Wales. the present king was instru-
mental in having the proprietor of
the paper knighted. 1t is therefore rea-
sonable to assum tna the warmth
and enthusiasm of the Daily Telegram
over the question of the kings visit
to America meets with the approval
and sympathy of the monarch. 1t may
be, indeed that the opinions express
ed were inspired by a nod or word
from the king and remains to De
seen how the British people regard
the matter as a whole. At present it
looks as though the King may yet
plant a tree on the grounds of the
jamestown Exposition, sit under the
spreading branches of the great Pow
hatan oak-which was a mature tree
when King James granted the vir-
ginia charter-and drink from the IL
Indian Spring from which Pocahontas
quenched her thirst.

THE ELEPHANT
N n DONKEY.

1.-The Santa Fe New Mexican re-
fers to itself as the elephant Yes,
indeed-and since the old Otero cir
Gus is busted, it is a mighty burden
left upon the hands of an administra-
ton that is engaged in business in
stead of running a tnree-ring circus

cord.
The Daily Record failed to state
that his elephant was being attacked
by a Democratic donkey paper pub
lished in the Record office in Ros-
well. The Record should ell the
truth. What it says about his pa
per and the present administration is
not worthy even of notice; it is too
silly. but then donkeys cannot be
blamed for being silly.-New Mexican
Anyway it requires less to feed a
donkey than it does to support an
elepnant-and the Pecos Valley

The Record does not charge the
murder of Jews in Russia against the
Orthodox church, but to darkness and
ignorance blindly fighting toward the
light, n unable yet to understand
Russia really capable of showing
the way out. The anarchy of Russia
commits suicide as well as murder
in its passionate struggle for what
it is yet incapable of knowing.

Now that is what I shall repeat
to the territories of Arizona and New
Mexico if they refuse to accept state

confronted with a very serious propo-
