MONDAY. AUGUST 5. Tiie tax-dodger with a pull is nlways lookine ont for the interest of his class. Who's looking out for the interest of the people? Americans may take some interest in the fact that the husband of a Chicago girl defeated the hnsband of a Clevelaud girl in the late English election. The rival wives were formerly Miss Chamber lain and Mies Lieter. have ont deeper than even his vitupera tive faber can respond to. Any way, he wants the New Mexican to help him ont, and as the New Mexican is conducted on humane principles, verging as closely to the golden rule as is consistent with good journalism, even when dealing with its avowed enemies, why, here goes Mr. Kelly's letter explains itself: To the Editor of the New Mexican. Las Crnoes, N. M., Aug. 2. Dear Sir: The statements said to have been made to the Optio by the person calling herself Miss Londonderry, alleging that I invited her to drive, that I was intoxicated, etc., are absolutely false and without any sem blance of foundation. As you have seen fit to publish an editorial paragraph based upon Miss Londonderry's malio ous falsehood and containing an insinuation against me, you will oblige me by print ing a proper correction. I also suggest that you might be a little more carefnl in your personal allusions to me, nnd there by show better appreciation of the or dinary rules of professional courtesy. Yours respectfully, Allen Kelly. We cheerfully give Mr. Kelly the bene fit of the New Mexican's calnmns to make this correction, returning good for evil. However, the suggestion he makes as to being "a little more careful," he will doubtless in future take to himself, whether dealing with his brethren of the press or with an unprotected female bi cycle agent. The paragraph in tho New Mexican which Mr. Kelly complains of reads thus: "According to the Las Vegas Optio's interview with the femnle biker, Miss Londonderry, Editor Allenkelly's griev ance against the woman was one that would properly oome under the caption 'purely personal.' " PRESS COMMENT. The Pecos Valley Argus unhesitatingly pronounces the New Mexican "the leading paper of New Mexico." This compli ment is particularly gratifying coming as it does from one of the handsomest and one of the most ably conducted newspapers in the west. GBABBnoppEiis seem to be a superfluous insect. They have 400 grasshopper kill ing maohines in Chicago county, Minne sota, which average 100 bushels a day. These 40,000 bushels of grasshoppers are in excess of the quantity Minnesota's heus get away with. A man with a statistical turn of mind finds that $50,000,000 is spent each year in maintaining ohnrches in the United States. Churches seem a rather expen sive institution until light is thrown on the cost of jails, whioh the same genius figures at $400,000,000. The usual controversy is going on in Texas as to whether the proposed cham pion fight can oome off in that state. The governor of Texas has taken the negative. The Florida Athletio club, which has charge of the preliminaries, says that the governor's proclamation was expeoted. The club did not say whether or not the proclamation was a part of the program. FARMERS, TAKE NOTICE. The New Mexican has frequently called attention to the certain profits that might generally be derived by the farmers of New Mexioo by the intelligent cultivation of canagria, which is rapidly supplanting oak and hemlock bark as a material for tanning leather. It is indigenous to the soil of New Mexico, growing naturally in every county of the territory, bat its value is much inoreased by cultivation, and of course the product can thereby be almost indefinitely inoreased. With a view to stimulating the culture of can agria in Texas, the Galveston chamber of commerce has issued an elaborate bulletin explaining the nature of the plant, its methods of growth, how it can most prof itably be cultivated and prepared for the market, and what its superior merits are as a tanning material. The bulletin af firms that canagria root, a tuber resem bling a common potato, contains from 2G to 84 per cent of tannin as against from 8 to 11 per cent in the best tan bark, and concludes with this remark: "The demand is praeticnlly unlimited and it is believed that 3,000,000 tons of the root could be sold annually." This is a subject that ought to arrest the attention of every tiller of the soil in New Mexico. Thm is no reason why the oulture of oanagria should not annually add thou sands of dollars to the wealth of this ter ritory. mammmmmwmmmmmm EDITOR KELLY'S COMPLAINT. Editor Allen Kelly, of the Las Crnoes Independent-Democrat, is in trouble. No one will be surprised at this, for most people who have attained their majority are firm believers in the old saw, "give a calf rope enough and he'll hang himself," and that's just what's the matter with Kelly. He ha. been sloshing around in his editorial mud-hole for over a year, butting his cranium against nearly every thing and everybody in sight, emitting copious quantities of splenetic nastiuoss Kelly has an abnormal spleen in season and out of season, and prostituting both the editorial and local columns of the newspaper whioh employs him to un justly critioise and abuse people whose motives are pure, sincere and honest. Kelly, the self-oonstituted mentor of the New Mexico press; Editor Kelly, the bear hunter from the Pacific; Prof. Allen Kelly, the grammarian, he who revels in jonrnalistio classics and delights in dilating upon the editorial ability of his neighbor whenever he fails "to dot an i or cross a t-thia is the fellow who now wants the press to set him right in the eyes of the public The story of Mr. Kelly troubles are brief. There's a woman In it, of coarse. Wh.i fnl thins, these women are, to be are. Why, alongside of the wagging tonga of a woman who makes up tier mind to gorisht after her prey "hell's fury," we are told, has no eqnal, and in this partloular case the wagging that Mr. Kelley baa beoome the victim of seems to A Matter of Koicret. The AlbuquerqneDemoorat is certainly greatly improved, and is rapidly coming to the front as a newspaper. Its tele graphic columns are now carefully edited, making it the most desirable newspaper in New Mexioo. From a politioal stand point, it is a matter of regret that the controlling interest should pass into the hands of Republican politicians. Socorro Advertiser. Law and Kqalty. The Optio is of opinion that the fol lowing of Reavis thns far is persecution rather than prosecution, and the writ of habeas corpus should at once be granted. There is neither justice nor reasou in keeping the man in jail, even if his prose cution is persevered in. Messrs. Catron fc Spiees ought to be able to get him out of prison, for they have equity on their side. As to law, it is on any side which has the strongest lawyers. Las Vegas Optio. The Demoorat indorses all that por tion of the foregoing which refers to Reavis, and with respect to the general remark in the last two lines, it unfor tunately contains too much truth so muoh, indeed, that the fnot it states hns almost entirely obliterated that respeot whioh the people ought to entertain for the oourts.

In such fruit as the peach, pear, plum, grape, prune, apricot, neotanne, cherry, quince, etc., the Valley will dispute for the pre-eminenoe with California; while competent authority pronounces its upper portions in partioular the finest apple country in the world. Enormous yields of such forage crops as alfalfa, sorghum aud Egyptian corn make the feeding of oattle and sheep and the raising and fattening of hogs a very profitable oooupation. The cultivation of oanaigre a tanning material of great value is beooming an important industry in the Pecos Valley, a home market having been afforded for all that oau be raised, at a price yielding a handsome profit. . . , , , . . The climate of the Pecos Valley has no superior in the United States, being pre-eminently healthful and health restoring. i Lands with perpetual water-rights are for sale at low prioea and on easy terms. The water sopply or the Pecos Valley has no equal in all the arid region for constanoy and reliability; and this with the superb climate, productive soil and the facilities afforded by the railway which extends through the Valley s en tire length, will oause these lands to enjoy a constant, and at times rapid, increase in value. The recent completion of the Pecos Valley Railway to Roswell will cause the mw rapid settlement and development of the upper portions of the Valley, including the rich Feliz seotion. The company has recently purchased many of the older improved farms about Roswell, aud has now for sale lands to meet the wants of all-raw lands, partially improved lands, us well as farms with houses, orchards and fields of nUalfa and other crops. Iu the vioiuity of Roswell several pieces of land have been divided into five and ten acres tracts, snitable for orchards and traok farms in connection with suburban homes. Certain of these tracts are being planted to orchards, and will be cultivated and oared for by the company for three yunrs ut the end of which period they will be handed over to the purchasers.
