COPPER PRODUCTION is
BREAKING ALL RECORDS.

For the first time in the history
of the United States we consumed
in 1910 more copper metal than all
the rest of the world combined. 1t
is estimated that the entire world
consumption OF copper is slightly in
excess of 3,000O0O.000 pounds OF
this the United States used l,625,-
100000 pounds.
The United States marketed last
year 2,325 100000 pounds of copper,
an increase of 63l.000.0O0 over 1915.
This is the greatest amount of cop
per ever sold by any one country,
and the price received for it was the
highest ever paid for any large
quantity of copper metal. In order
to turn out this vast tonnage, every
smelter and refinery in North Amer
ica was worked to the fullest pos
sible capacity.
If the United States should conti-
nue. to maintain consumption de-
mand of say one billion and half
pounds per annum, and after the
war the rest of the world should re-
turn to its normal consumption, the
worlds demand would then amount
to about 4,300,000OO0 pounds. This
is well over 1,0O,O0,000 pounds
more copper than the present re-
filming capacity of the world can
produce. .
In view of these statistics. which

TAFT WANTS AMERICA
TO HELP FREE JEWS.

Former President William Howard
Taft lectured before the Geographic
Society yesterday afternoon i'll New
Masonic Temple Auditorium on the
Jewish race. He declared that if
the United States will use its power
in the worlds conference after the
war, it may be the means of freeing
onc-half OF the Jews of the world"
Mr.. TAFT said that the United
States will sway greater power in
the adjusting of peace conditions
than most people of this county rea-
lize, and he declared that this coun-
try has no right to withhold the
use OF this power when the civil
equality of the Jew is at stake"
Mr.. Taft traced the history of the
Jews from shortly after the begin
ming of the Christian era to the pre-
sent time He expressed regret over
the prosecutions which they have
suffered and which, he said. were
stimulated always by religious pre-
judice.
He showed that there were l3,000,-
600 Jews in the world, of which num-
ber more than 100000 live in the
United States, and one-half of these
in New York City.
Mr.. Taft said that the harsh and
measures to which the
Jews have been subjected has not
helped in the solution of their pro-
blem. He hinted that when the Eu-
ropean war had been settled Rus
sia may change her attitude toward
these people.
1T will be a blessing" he said, "if
the war will help the Jews. Russia
cannot continue with her present
treatment of the Jews without de-
triment to her own country"

ONE CROP BRINGS
NEARLY $40 PER ACRE

Can you beat it anywhere in the
u. s. A.-$4000 made on less than
90 acres with as small an outlay as is
necessary to raise crop in the Es-
tancia valley? This is not theory
but an actual fact This represents
according to the County Agent. the
best all around crop in the country
and consisting of beans, potatoes,
corn and mllet And the strange
part about it is this crop was raised
in the central part of the valley
where we have heard it said re-
pcatcdIy you couldn't farm success
fully This wasn't a chance crop as
the same thing occurred in 1915 and
1914 although the money return was
considerably less on account of
lower prices. This crop was raised
by John Gloss, four miles south of
Moriarty, Mr.. Gloss attributed his
success to deep plowing--not six
inches but twelve, conserving the
moisture and mixing . little COM
mon sense in with his work.-Mor-
iarty Messenger.

PHASE OF LOST
FUNDS BEFORE HIGH COURT

The suit involving the funds be-
longing to the State college at Las
Cruces which were lost in the fail
urc OF the First State bank in De-
ccmber. 1914. was argued in the
Supreme Court Yesterday. The at
torncys were Harry S. Bowman.
former assistant attorney general.
for the state and Attorney Fran
els G Wilson. Of this city, and s. P.
WciSager. of FL Paso for appellants.
The question involved is whether
or not the funds derived from the
s.,le a. safe lands for the benefit
OF state Institutions constitute a per
marent endowment fund for these
institutions.
The sum involved is SO, 400 II
came mp on appeal from the district
court of Santa Fe county which de-
cided in favor of the state in its
contention that it should recover the
full sum on deposit, protected by the
bond of the surety company.
Counse, for the surety company
included in the 5000 constituted
part of the permanent endowment
fund of the institution and belongs
in custody of the state, not being
subject to the provisions of the bond.
Mr.. Bowman. for the state argued
.li1t such moneys do not constitute
permanent endowment fund and
the money car be appropriated Tor
immediate expenditure by the insti-
tuition; the S21 900 thus being covered
by the surety company bond.

MANY GRAND CANYON
VISITORS IN 1916.

While the steam railroad conti-
nues to be the favorite conveyance
for long distance travellers touring
feur there by auto, regardless of tire
troubles and longer time required.
The Grand Canyon of Arizona was
visited in 1910 by 81 1888 persons. or
this number 26.229 came by rail on
the Santa Fc and 5,l2o by auto for
the most part stopping oil enroute
to or from California.
Thirty-Six states were on the auto
list, as checked up at FL Tovar gar
age, and four foreign countries. One
auto party trave'ed all the way from
China. another from England, a third
from Hawaii and fourth from Mex

Vermont. Louisiana, Minnesota and
Oregon.
The mascots or pets, carried by
these enthusiasts OF the open road

parrots. rabbits rooSterS and squir-

majority but there were plenty of
highcst-priced cars too.
Any were fitted up for every pos

or shine. They were ingenious tra-
yelling homes for the whole Blank
family. including Fido.
The Grand Canyon is open by rail

confined TO the period from March
to November. Arizona is noted for

UNITED STATES
MUST SURRENDER
TO FOREIGN CAPRICE
r PRESIDENT WILSON'S
SCHEME TO INTRUDE INTO
THE EUROPEAN AFFAIRS
BE ADOPTED - WOULD
MEAN WAR NOT PEACE

Washington, Jan. 3l.-The follow
ing statement regarding President
Wilson's address to the Senate on
foreign policies was issued today by
Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., former
Senator from Oregon:
"No better illustration of the dam
ger of centralized powers will ever
be manifested than the unwarrant-
ed assumption of President Wilson,
who, although receiving the votes of
only u per cent of our population
entitled to vote in 1912, and of SO
per cent in l9i6, without consulta-
ton with Congress or with the mem
bcrs of the Committee on Foreign
Relations, assumes to lecture the
Senate and through them the world,
and arrogantly presumes to speak
for the people Of the United States
in the enunciation of world policy,
which, if adopted, must result in
absolute surrender by the United
States of the right of determination
of our own foreign policies which
vitality affect, and in many instances
control our domestic policies.
Through the subservience OF his
party, President Wilson in four
years has rapidly led us to pattern
aism, established bureaucratic gov
ernmcnt, Subverted the state, or the
police force, to the commercial force
in society, greatly diminished the
scope OF individual action, and eff
the public mind to the be-
lief that the government owes them
a living and they owe the govern
Eent nothing; with the result that
rational patriotism has become GER
iainly dormant if not extinct.
AS long as selfishness is the
handspring of humanity, and, as it
always will, dominates every indivi-
peace viii be an impossibility.
Cur ability to protect our own
rights and interests is our only hope
for international safety. Diminu-
ton of executive power, extension
of the power of the people with
exercise of that power,
federal encouragement instead of
of individual ini-
tiative, a government of law and not
Of men. are the only channels
through which we can enjoy DOM
estic peace and prosperity.
LET us hope that Providence will
protect our country from the dam
gers incident to four more years of
the present administration.
National dictators are bad enough,
Is evidenced by the horrible Euro
pean conditions today, but an inter
national dictator is inconceivable."

carried over until Monday by the
action of the senate in adjournment
A resolution of Senator Esquibel to

The Basis Of Permanent Peace.

Anyone who believes that the peo-
pie of the United States were unani-
mously in favor OF entering the war on
the side of the entente, is either ignor-
ant of the facts, or willfully refuses
to admit them. Irrespective of the
rights of the controversy, the great
ma ajority of Americans did not wish
to get into the war, and a great num-
ber of them have never believed that
war was necessary or desirable. That
subject. however. is no longer a matter
for profitable discussion. The United
States is in the war. and being in the
war. II is a matter of transcedant ma
tional importance that the war shall
be won. and that it shall be won as
quickly as possible.
When II comes to the question of
the purpose in the war. and of the OBJ
ject which the United States should
strive to gain. that is a matter of very
vital Importance. and IL is one con
cerning which there ought not to be
any Vi pDlI1Ou
among intelligent Americans
In his message to congress asking
for declaration of war against the Ger
man government. President Wilson
very clearly set forth the national pur-
poses as he viewed 1t. and that declara-
ton undoubtedly had a strong effect
in uniting the nation and securing non
partison support for the policy he
outlined. Briefly stated that purpose
is to secure permanent peace among
all the nations OF the world as the re-
suit of the triumph of the principles
of democracy and the downfall of the
principles of autocracy.
There are great many people in
the United States who do not believe
that the Wilson administration has
been fair toward the German nation or
the German government. There are u
great many who will not admit that
the British have been fighting the
battle of freedom, while the Germans
have been fighting the battle of Prus-
sian militarism engaged in a campaign
for world dominion.
But there can be no dispute of the
fact that President Wilson. in his of.
ficial statement of the purpose for
which America has entered the war,
has declared that the purpose is not
Indemnity and not conquest. nor the
subjugation OF the German people, but
