Bar of Gold.

Last Thursday Deputy Sheriff J. P. Gideon brought in from Gold Road a bar of bullion weighing $25,OOO. The bar was the result of the weeks clean up at the big mill. At the mine the showing of ore reserves is growing daily and keeping far Ill the lead of the mill. Even with the new machines, which will add greatly to the capacity of the plant, the developments are nearly four years in advance of any call the mill may make upon the reserves. The grade of the ore is keeping we'll above $15 per ton and in some of the stopes it is increasing with every round of shots.

Every year in which thou sands of feet of ripened timber are permitted to rot and fall in the reserves, you are stealing something from the human race that belongs to it, and every year that the great coal beds of the Pacific slope go undeveloped 1t costs this Government extra millions to send coal around to the Pacific, burdens every citizen in that part of the country with exorbitant freight charges, and puts extra millions into the hands of eastern coal companies who are delighted to see this go on. It would be a magnificent scheme indeed to compel the whole great West to hold its vast resources in idleness, deprive its people of their enjoyment and use, and compel them to pay tri bute to those resources of which you have taken possession here and developed at your own free will"

New Mexico Fair.
And Others

Did you ever ride on the Hu- man Roulette Wheel? You will have that privelege at the Thir- tieth Annual New Mexico Fair next October. This is one of the unique features of the Parker Carnival Company, the largest carnival company in the world which is coming to the fair. It IS an immense fifty foot wheel on which you whirl around un- til you are bounced of against a padded bank. The man who stays on the longest wins the roulette game. This is only one of the many amusement devices which will transform the carna- val park at Albuquerque into a Coney Island next October. You can hardly afford to miss it. A gigantic statehood float, the most gorgeous thing ot the kind ever attempted, will be the feature par excellence Of the great Thlrtieth Annual Fair and first State Fair at Albuquerque in October next. The exact nature of this float in the annual pageant IS kept secret, but plans are well under way to make it something that will be historic. The coming of state hood means that the first fair held after the star Is added to the flag will be the most tre- mendous exposition of the re- sources of New Mexico ever held. 1t behooves every man, woman and child in New Mexico to be on hand and make the demon stration one never to be for gotten.
 The New Mexico Kennel Club, which is to have charge of the first annual Kennel Show at the 3Oth Annual New Mexico Fair and First State Fair, has been fully organized, and is headed by some of the most prominent men of the Territory. This Kennel exhibition is going to be on a large scale, and with the poultry exhibit, will be one of the most notable features of the live stock exhibits. The people of the Ter ritory are cooperating for both exhibits and both will set a new mark in this line for the South west,

 the Nations natural resources. Senator BCrah, of Idaho, one of the young intellectual giants of the Senate, delivered q speech shortly before Congress adjourn ed, in which he gave his views on the subject. He said that 150,- 100000 acres of the public do- main had been granted to rail roads and other public service corporations, and that a most liberal policy had been followed toward them, even when they had not earned their land grants. To homesteaders about 115, ,OOO, GOO acres had betn granted. The homesteader, said the Senator, was required by law to "take his family upon the land improve it, and reside upon 1t for five yeals. No matter how desolate the locality, how insufferable the cold of the winter or the drought in summer, no matter what crop failures or sickness occurred, he had to remain or forfeit the title. He was chained like Prometheus to his rock. If he left for time to gain livelihood to support his family his title was promptly challenged and the most strict interpretation of the law admin istered. A few years ago by a cruel unjust, and illegal system a method was devised which, as a practical matter, extended the residence period to seven or eight years. 1t not only extended the residence period, but it put upon the settler already limited in means an extra burden for attor- ney fees and expenses of l1tiga- tion." But this was not all, The Senator continued:
 "The settler would make his proof, and a special agent would appear and file an objection to the issuance of patent. In other words, the special agent, acting for the Government, was pro- ceeding upon tue theory that every settler who came in con- tact with the public lands was dishonest and a perjurer. The special agent was accomplishing in thIs way two things which added greatly to his zeal. First, he was overseeing and supervis- ing the honesty and integrity of all men-and how fascinating this kind of service is to a special agent to human language can describe. There is an exquisite ness of pleasure connected with such service known only to the highly wrought and sensitive soul of a special agent. Second, he was justifying in the most conclusive way the necessity of his work and the necessity of his continued employment by the Government.
 Thus the system, with an ap- petite increasing as it fed, indis- criminately challenged every title good or had. By the time the special agent completed his re- port, and the matter was finally passed upon, months and years had passed. Often the home steader, impoverished and har- assed, gave up the work of his five years and his prospect of a home and went into the town to enter the competitive field of the day laborer. Mir. President, 1 do not hesitate to say-and 1 shall be glad to see the man who will refute the statement-that this system is an outrageous viola ton of law, of every principle of justice and of rightful relation ship which should exist between the government and the citizen.

THE NEW STATES
 ADMISSION.

I1eI WHICH LnS roll O1 states is called, there will be two additional names. A few narrow newspapers ID the east offer their chronic protest, be- cause there is scarcity Of popu- lation; they hold up the lists of the people that New York and Pennsylvania and Illno1s con- tain, and mournfully tell us that in the United States senate Ariz- ona will have the same number of representatives as either of of those great states. That IS true, as 1t should be, as the wis dom of the fathers planned it should be, for if it were other. wise those three states would pretty nearly control the whole republic, and we all can see what would quickly follow if that were the case. There are other considerations to be counted with. Of course the country west of the Rockies is sparsely settled but when did the country east of the rockies emerge from being a third rate power, and what caused the change? Was 1t the corn and tke cotton fields or was 1t when the work of the men of the far west supplied the money which gave vitality to the dull products of the east and gave vitality to the credit of the east and made of the whole re- public, commanding power among the nations of the earth? The eastern country had been raising cotton and corn from the time ot the birth of the nation up to the discovery of gold in California and it's credit stood on a par with Egypt. The trans formation has come since and the change has been almost ex- actly i'll the same ratio that the increase of gold and silver from the mines of the far west has been.
 But there is more than all that to th1s business. Ours is SUD- posed to be a government of the people by the people and tor the people. If that is true by what authority does the government assume the right to say to the thousands in any particular pol itical division of the republic, when they demand statehood, when they possess the wealth to carry on state, when they have given sufficient proof of their loyalty and ability to manage a state, by what authority does congress, i'll effect, declare that such a people shall be denied participation in the government and in the right to aspire to win the honors which the republic holds out to its children? As to Arizona and New Mexico, they will bring no discredit to the nation. It will not be long un- til Arizona will be a greater agri- cultural state than either of quite half of the original thirteen, a greater mining state than either of rhe original thirteen, excepting only Pennsylvania.
 So far the far west states have done the nations counsel's. Rather, had their advise been taken, there would have been no confusion now in the finances of the country and our export trade with half the people of the earth would not have been killed. The brightest men of the east seem incapable of ever outgrowing their provincialism; they turn tbe leaves of the book ot know ledge and gain much learning, but seem incapable of ever gain ing any wisdom. The east needs the west for more than the west

The following story which leaked out of Yale faculty meeting Is also typical of Waterloo" Wheeler, The case of fast student was before the faculty. Though the Yale principle is to meddle as little ss possible with the life and morals of the student, in. sisting merely on the rule, keep a good scholarship stand and be regular In attendance, still fragrant cases of misconduct are summarily disposed of. The student in question had been seen In the company of a woman of rather poor reputation, and there was question of dismissal. Lest he be wrongfully sentenced the cautious Prof. Ladd, the philosopher, had in. auired Was the young man positive, ly identifed?" Oh, yes, the professor knew the man well; there could be no mistake about 1t.

SAYS THE VETERAN CROUCH
Listen and Ye Shall Hear Just How the Ideal Boarding House
 Should Be Run.

"As look back" said the veteran boarder, q find the one common com plaint that everywhere crops out to be of cold plates and cold food. Here is something that every boarding house keeper has quite within con trol but which is nevertheless con- monly neglected.
 Many a boarder has been lost by serving to him cold food on cold plates. The boarder with, or it may be without, reason may have been 1isgruntled about other things and yet may stay, but let him get suc- cession of cold dinners and some day he says at last: Well, I can't stand this any longer; I'm going to quit, the cold plates and cold food being the last straw that breaks the camel's back,
 What Is needed Is grace In the kitchen; grace and thoughtfulness; grace to serve things in way to make them attractive and pleasing to the eye and thoughtfulness to keep the food and the plates hot. I have always thought and I still think that If l kept a hotel or a boarding house and l had nothing but nasty pudding to give my people to eat I would shape 1t in pretty molGS before I sent 1t to the table, and above all things I'd serve 1t hot and give them hot plates from which to eat 1t. I know you will agree with me that so served the simplest food would be far more pleasing to the palate and the fancy. Hot food and hot plates would promote peace and happiness and bring to many boarding house pros, perity."
