Our New York Letter.

here is an lC6Iu VI lutSIeSI dDOuI
now when so much is being said and
written about corporations.
The first one organized chartered
in this great country was by Aaron
Burr, of a certain memory. 1t was
the Manhattan Water Company (now
the Manhattan Bank of this city,.
Burr was a schemer-a power in poll
tics in his day, or at least until
up to the time of his disgrace.
The promoters proposed supplying
water to the residents of New York
city. Little attention was paid to
the measure-so simple merely a
water bill'' and at that time water
was an object to the growing city.
1t was found afterwards that Burr
had Incorporated in the bill broad
privileges, exclusive rights, not
only water rights, but all manner
of things were granted, banking,
trading, speculating anything, every
thing could be carried on under the
protection of law and to the exclu-
sion of others. The water company
is defunct and has been for years,
yet the far reaching charter is pre-
served and under it a score Of enter
prises are to-day operated.
The great Manhattan Banking in
stitution takes the lead among the
many under the wings of this fran
chise. The law makers at the time
incorporated in the measure clause
requiring the daily pumping of water
and the minimum was placed at one
gallon, from that day to this water
has been pumped daily, and now
every day one gallon is forced through
the pipe, to save the valuable fran
chise.
A good man, no matter what his
politics or religion is, deserves the
commentator of his fellow men.
Governor Charles E. Hughes, of New
York State, is the one your cores
pondent has in mind at this time.
This is not written to further the
political chances of Governor Hughes,
but simply and solely to give honor
to whom honor is due. Hughes is a
man, a makeup such as the writer
has never before seen, and it is
truth theman does not care whether
he is further favored or not po-
litically; he is natures nobleman
who does right though the heavens
fall, lets fly the chips no matter
whom they hit; his first and sole
thought seems to be the right. A
christian tried and true, son of a
Baptist preacher, his training was
correct, and he has never deviated
from it. AS some one put it novelty
is a great asset in politics, the peo-
pie at large have an instinct for dis
covering the new thing, and the
Hughes method is unquestionably
new. Joining the stiff orderliness
associated with extreme conserva'
tism to an uncompromising radical
ness of idea, disregarding alike the
appeals of friendship and of party,
using no weapons except those drawn
from the arsenal of reason, here is
a man of whom anything is possible,
even the permanent lifting of Ameri'
can public life to a higher level"
The young man Of to-day will &c
we'll to watch the life and doings OF
Charles E. Hughes.

A New Mexico Home.

The editor, in company with

home of w. A. Bell, three miles
east of town, Sunday. Mr.. Bell
and family have been on this place
some eighteen or more years.
Their large stone house is situated
in a draw. About two hundred
yards above the house, Sam holds
back the water for %irrigating pur-
poses. From this dam a ditch runs
to the garden where the water is
utilized.
Mr.. Bell has out 1000 cabbages,
some OF which are ready for the
market. Several hundred toma-
toe vines look very promising,
while the cucumber, contaIoupe
and watermelon vines give prom
Use of fine crops. Other garden
stuff looks equally we'll.
On the place are lane cotton
wood trees as we'll as a nice or
chard. There will be no fruit on
this place this year, it all being
killed by the late freeze. There
will be some grapes, although we
were informed that the crop is not
nearly so heavy as usual.
Mr.. Bell has recently purchased
a quarter section from the Bravo
that lies down the draw from his
place, and he says he intends put
ting a large part of this tract in
alfalfa. He now has a small patch
OF alfalfa as fine as can be grown.
Mr.. Bell and his good wife are
justly proud of their New Mexico
home.-Nara Visa New Mexican.

MARKET CLOSES
 MUCH WEAKER
Absolutely No Buying Power in Cop pers--old Dominion Was Pressed for Sale Today--Professionals Expect a Rally.
lBy I. N. Kinseyl

GLOBE, June 13.-Old Dominion was the feature in the copper market today. The only explanation of the decline was that large block was offered on narrow market. Jackson X Curtis were heavy buyers at the close. We believe Old Dominion intrinsically cheap at the present prices.
 Walker Brothers of New York say: Market today was very dull and with out feature. The trading was entirely professional, and the changes were slight We do not look for much activ- ity this week, but think the market holds very well and undertone is strong. Professionals here expect good rally
 Foster of Payne Webber says: One by one the coppers were sagging of their own weight. There is absolutely no buying power for any block coming on the market and any bad moves will break any stock several points. Yes terday it was Utah, today it was Old Dominion. l must repeat my advice of the past few months to sell stocks and stay out of the market for the time being or go short and stay with them.
