PACE FOUR, ALBUQUERQUE EVENING CITIZEN. WEDNESDAY, MAY 30, 1906. THE ALBUQUERQUE CITIZEN Published Dally and Weekly By The Citizen Publishing Company W. S. STRICKLER President W. T. McCREIOHT Business Manager Ever Living Dead Every year, In the full tide of uprlnft, at tthe height of the symphony of flowers and love and life, there comes a solemn pause, and through the silenco fhe nation hears the lonely pipe of death. Year after year lovers wander ing under the apple boughs and through the clover are surprised with audden tears as they see black-veiled fig ures stealing through the morning to a soldier's grave. Year by year the comrades of the dead follow, with pub lic honor,' procession and commemorative flags and fun eral march tribute from us who have Inherited a nation glory to the heroes who gave It. As surely as this day comes round we are in the presence of the dead. But not all the associations of this day are sad; some of them are triumphant, even Joyful. We eeem to to hear the funeral march become a poan. Our heroic dead will live for us, and bid us think of life, not death of life to which In their youth they lnt the passion and glory of the spring. Memorial day may and ought to have a meaning beyond mere honor to the dead. It celebrates and solemn ly reaffirms from year to year a national act of enthusiasm and faith. It embodies In the most Impressive form our oellef that to act with enthusiasm and faith 1 the con diHion of acting greatly. To fight out a war men must be lieve something and want something with all their might. So must they believe and want to carry out anything else to an end worth reaching. Peace calls for its patriotic devotion, no less than 'war. And, utrlpped of the direct associations which gave rise to It, this is a day when by common consent, we pause to become conscious of our national honor anil to rejoice In it, to recall what our country has done and Is doing for us, and to ask ourselves what we can do for our country In return. The great French soldier, De Lntour d'Auv ergne, was ithe hero of many battles, but remained by his own choice in the rank Napoleon gave him a sword and ihe official tile "The First Orenadler of France." When he m-aa killed, the emperor ordered that his heart should be entrusted to his regiment that his name should be called at every roll-call and that his next comrade should answer, "Pead upon the field of honor!" In the keeping of this nation are the hearts of ma'ny heroes; we treasure them In consecrated ground, and when their names are called we answer in flower?-, "I3,1 upon the fleid of I honor." Force y Fashions It is evident, says a telegram from London, that the great city is not In sympathy with the Church of England clergy, who a week ago made such a violent protest against the marriage of Princess Ena to the kiuff of Spain, for the town is becoming rapidly enthusiastically Spanish. Costumes modelled after the Spanish fashion have begun to make their appearance in the shop windows, while the high jewelled comb and glittering sequins, be loved of the basque peasant girl, are meeting with a ready pale, while Spanish lace in enormous quantities is stocked in all the fashionable ahops. Black is the favorite color as, far as the sales have gone, but natural shades cf cieam and toft pastel tints are also in great demand. One Oxford afreet fchop made a specialty of hand made Spanish mohair shawls for theater wraps, which are selling rapidly, and women are having tea gowns and negligees modelled on the uaiionat dress of Spain. Of all the Spanish modes the most picturesque is the high dressed evening coiffure, which is being adopted enthus iastically, while every hairdresser and jeweler is selling beautiful Spanish combs. Not only Is Spanish dress in fashion, but Spanish furniture, pottery, leather, old silver and pictures are be ing eagerly sought Even the Spanish language has lie come popular In the city, as well as at court. At the Berlitz schools in London the language is being taught to earnest pupils seven hours daily. Princess Maurice and Leopold of Battenberg are among ithe pupils, while there are also many society women and many clerks from the city. Delay Is Dangerous The Optic says that the people of Santa Fe are mak ing a determined effort to secure the Mary James Mission school for boys, which will mean the expenditure of at least $50,000 in buildings alone. It Is necessary for the capital folk to put up $1,000 to make sure of the school. Mi's. Trunkey of Pennsylvania, prominently identiflej with the woman's home missionary work of the Pres byterian' church of which work Mrs. James has long been the head and in whose honor the proposed echool has been named recently spent a couple of months in Albuquerque. Just before leaving ehe stated lo a rep resentative of The Citizen that the board is becoming weary of the delay upon Santa Fe's part, in securing the necessary grounds for the institution, and that a consider able feeling is growing amongst those having in hand the construction of the school, to place it at Albuquerque where the church has ample grounds in connection with the Menaul school. Albuquerque has taken no Hteps to cultivate the feel ing referred to, because the pffer was first made to Santa Fe, and only when that city confesses inability to comply with the conditions would it be at all proper for Albu querque to Intervene in any way. The increase in imports for the ten months ending with April amounts to about k& million dollars, and is about equally divided between manufacturers' materials and manufactures, the total figures for the nine months of which the department of commerce and labor thrc.uph its ljureaupf statistics has complwod the analysis, indicating a gain of about li million? in manufafurers' imterilfis, and" El millions In the two classes, manufacturer and !u urien, while there i3 a decrease of aliout :o v.iilions in food-stuffs.

CKCOXXX000Xi0XX0XOC00 Crime Corrected By linife of iSurrjeon ocjcoooooooooooo It is no new theory that criminal propensities may often bo due to physical defects. Surgical cases laUdy re ported from Philadelphia and Toledo lift Ihe Idea above the plane of mere theory. The connection between the mind and the body is still a mystery, but progressive science shows tho connection to be much closer than was even imagined possible a century ego. It has been com mon for many years to restore reason, .destroyed by Injury lo the head, by relieving the brain pressure. The nature of the insanity may sometimes even Indicate the exact location of the pressure when it is caused not by externa) injury, but by internal growths. The Philadelphia case Is that of a boy whose skull had been injured by a fall at an early age. The boy had apparently recovered completely from the fall. His phy sical condition was good and his brain active, but he was an incorrigible rascal. He was heading toward a career in crime, when he fell into the hands of a surgeon. It was found that a depressed bone probably affected the brain, and an operation confirmed this diagnosis. The pressure was removed, and the boy, placed under close observation for several weeks, shows no tendency to re lapse Into his former willfulness. Instead, he la affection ate, kind and good. A similar case in Toledo has had the same result, and it is established that, sometimes at any rate, wickedness is a disease resulting from causes en tirely 'physical and can be cured by the knife and saw. The penitentiaries and Jail should offer a fruitful .field for further experiment. 0000XXX)XIOOXXCX0XXXXXX)Oi UfjQ Way Monopoly MaRes Its Success Paul Latzke in Success Magazine. tXK0vX00XC0XXXXXXXXXX0XXi Only the Inner circle at Bell telephone headquarters in Boston, knows what their "press campaign has cost. It must show a fabulous total. A single month's work in such a small place as Evansville, Indiana, cost the Cum berland Telephone company, one of the Bell subsidiaries,. over $11,600, divided between the two local dailies. One of these, the Journal News, finally revolted, under pres sure of the local merchants, who threatened to withdraw their patronage. In an editorial published March 9, 1904, It announced its reformation and told all the facts con nected with the sale of its columns and the columns of its contemporary' But such Incidents as these have no effect on the activities of the Bell press bureau and the dis bursement of its great corruption fund. For more than twelve years it has been in active operations, and there is hardly a city, town, or hamlet that has not leen "worked." In New England hundreds of newspapers of the sec ond class have tied themselves to the Bell, hand and foot, under regular contracts which contain, among others, these two clauses: "1 The party of the first part (the newspaper) hereby agrees to furnish, whenever called upon to do so by the second party (the New Eng land Bell company), a three-inch space, single ' column, for such advertising or other matter as second party may desire 4 . . . "3. lit is further understood hat said first party (the newspaperl will at all times exercise its good will in said second party's interest, and co-operate with said second party " What becomes of the chief safeguard of our liberties, ,a free press, when newspaper owners are found eagerly willing to sign away their consciences like this? In Omaha a strong independent company, backed with plenty of local capital, applied for a franchise. The com pany guaranteed valuable returns to the city, low rates to the subscribers, and high-grade service. It promised to free the people from the take-it-or-leave-it policy pre vailing here as elsewhere. . Immediately the local papers began to publish "lettters from our special correspondent,', dated, apparently, at St. Jospeh, Kansas City, Louisville, Sti Louis and other cities where the independent plants were oprating in opposition, to the Bell. These letters told with harrowing deilail the loss and annoyance the people In these places were suffering, and how anxious they were to be rid of the independent plants. The good people of Omaha who read these "letters" in the Bee did not, of course, dream that they were simply the paid advertisements of the Bell company, though their suspicions should have been aroused when thej World Herald printed a lot of similar letters. Any novice might have seen that these letters were written, by the same gifted hand.

The romanitic times of Poca hontas and Captain John Smith are vividly recalled by the Indian relics dug up in grading the streets at the Jamestown exposition grounds. The site selected for the celebration of the three hundredth anniversary of the first permanent English settlement in America was once an Indian villate occupied by the Powhatans, the mosl pow erful tribe of the early American Indians who roamed over the country tast of the Ohio river three centuries ago. Near hv Suae Exhibits building stands a majestic i.ve oaK tre.1. tne rowhatan oak, estimated to te nearly 1.000 years old. which was a favorite camping ground of the Indians before America was discovered by the whites. Here were held councils of war when the only weapons in use were stone hatchets, btone war clubs, spears with stone points and bows and arrows.

A GREAT NEW INDUSTRY IS GIVEN LIFE THE PASSAGE OF THE FREE AL COHOL BILL WILL PUT MIL LIONS OF DOLLARS TO A NEW WORK AND BENEFIT MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ALL OVER THE LAND THE HEAVIEST BLOW THE STANDARD OIL COMPANY EVER RECEIVED BECAUSE AL COHOL WILL COMPETE WITH KEROSENE AND GASOLINE IN LIGHTING, HEATING AND IN POWER PRODUCTION. Special Correspondence: Washington, I). C, May 30. A new industry one involving millions of dollars Is about to siprlng into life ihe fruits of the earth corn, pota toes, beets, grain, etc. are soon to he converted. In hundreds of distilleries, into alcohol for use in the industrial arts, for fuel, heat and light. Every state in the union will have Its part In this new enterprise. Ail this will result from the passage or the free alcrmol hill. To the alchemy of commercial chemistry all starch is sugar, and sugar is alcohol. Nothing is easier or cheaper than the making of alcohol. But hitherto the government has practically forbidden the manufacture of this product except for Intoxicating oevenages. only lor such purposes could alcohol be used, and the tax was 12.10 a gallon. Wood alcohol was excepted lcause it is a rank pjlson. Now congress has passed' a law which amounts to a reversal of this embargo on alcohol. Beginning Jan uary. 11)07, practically anybody who wants to make alcohol can do so. Already hundreds of Capitalists are eagerly hastening to enter this new field of commercial activity. Front every pm of 'the country inquiries for the latest details as to the law are coming in. In every community distilleries will be started and many of these distill eries will also have a starch manu facturing annex. The two industries go hand in hand. Part of the potato or hecti which does not become alcohol will become starch. Although the new law will not go Into effect until 1907, Commissioner Yerkes of the Internal Revenue De partment, has started already to work Out the system of regulation which will govern the operation of the dis tilleries. Tnere was serious suspicion for a while that the Standard Oil influence might cripple the bill, and one or two amendments which the senate tacked on were looked upon with grave sus picion. But Commissioner Yerkes says the law will operate to permit ine greatest rreeuom at Che establish ment of nlants, 1'arge or small. i"" will be dj expense whatever to the, manufacturer either for licens ing the distillery, bonding the waro- nouse, or paying for the supervision or the inspection," declared Repre sentative Marshall of South Tlnkota who is author of the hill, auer an ex tended interview with Commissioner Yerkes. "After a careful reading of me diu as passed, and a full confer ence with Commissioner Yerkes, I be lieve we nave a great law." "Commissioner Yerkes' regulations, I believe, will permit manufacturers to place denaturlzed alcohol on the market at the very lowest prices. "The reaj work we had in hand," continued Mr. Marshall, "was to se cure legislation which would bring alcohol into competition with kero sene and gasoline to get it cheap enough so it would compete. So far a I am able to judge now we hava succeeded beyond our expectations. ThU law, giving us tax-free alcohol, Is drawn along such lines that tne manufacturers will reap a benefit be yond anything which they could have hoped for, while the producers of the raw materials, the farmers, who will als.i he consumers of the alcohol for fuel, liht and power, will receive as full a measure of benefit, as the legis lation can give them." It. is to he one of the provisions that, the minimum capacity of a dis tillery shall be 100 bushels of grain or 150 gallons of alcohol a day. It a said by Commissioner Yerkes that this is aliout as small a quantity as can be made in any distillery. Kepresentatievs In Washington on Standard Oil interests regard this free alcohol law as the heavies: blow that has yet been dealt the trust.
